A Victory and a Battle

YEAH! Another organic food item spotting! Jumbo Supermercado is really coming through! I found organic soy milk...vanilla, chocolate and strawberry! This was great because the milk we bought before tasted funky...also, there is a good chance it was whole milk (YUCK!) We splurged and bought both the vanilla and strawberry. Cereal never tasted so good! hehehe! We are now up to two organic food sightings...pasta sauce and milk. (Yes, of course we bought them both!)

Apparently in all my bliss after having a big bowl of cheerios for breakfast yesterday, I made a terrible mistake. I LOCKED OUR KEYS INSIDE OUR BEDROOM! I know that doesn´t sound like a big deal, so let me explain. We really only have two doors inside our house...both are off of the living room. One is for our bedroom and one is for our office (the bathroom is located between them and is accessed from either room). We were having some servicemen come to work on our air conditioner, so we decided that we should lock up the two rooms before departing for school. So I locked and shut the office door, walked through the bathroom and into the bedroom, locked the door then pulled it shut. Immediately after doing so, I realized that I left the keys inside the bedroom (along with the spares). Not a big deal, right, we could still leave for school and just deal with getting the bedroom door open later in the day....WRONG! You see, every door to the outside of our house (front door and patio door) requires that you lock it using a key....from both the inside and outside. There is no knob you use from the inside of the door to turn the lock, you must use your key. Since keys are required to open the lock to get outside, we were literally locked INSIDE our house. Fortunately, we had our cell phones so we decided to call the 3 people we know here that could help us....our landlord, her son, and her nephew. Sadly, we could not get a hold of any of them. Two of their phones were off and the other one went to voicemail. So, we sat...and sat...and sat... Greg made the comment 'So this is what it feels like to be in jail.' We both cracked up! Maybe an hour later (and much stalking via cell phone) our landlord´s nephew called us back. He was able to get in touch with our landlord and about 15 minutes later, we were free! :) Praise the Lord! It was a little embarrassing explaining why we were late when we got to school, but hey, at least we made it! Oh and by the way, the servicemen never came!
