The Home where we stayed most. The new home for my sister’s family (Robin, Leng and Kalel).
1) This is where I had my first Tornado warning experience- the whizzing sound of the strong wind combined with the siren to warn people about the coming tornado-scary. The power was cut off. We had to hide inside the bathroom carrying pillows, comforters and small mattress to cover ourselves. The tornado went pass but did not leave any damages. Little Kalel asked, “Are we having fun here?”
2) Garage sale experience - my sister and I came to a house of Slovenian lady. She is very light to talk to. We got some items which my mom said I should get for her…from the yard sale.
3) Getting lost-while-walking-experience (hahahaha!), AJ was on a bike while I walked the whole village. The farther we walked, the bigger the houses become. Impressive! How I wish I can have a house like theirs. I enjoyed walking while looking at the different houses and their landscapes. I had a pedometer to count my steps. I reached few more steps to 9000 steps. I kept asking AJ if he knew where we’re going. He said he did, but as soon as we were at the end of the road, he didn’t know how to go back hahahaha! I rang Leng and got directions on how to walk back to the house. I just had to walk and turn left each time I see a new street. It was starting to rain, I wasn’t wearing any jacket, AJ was. He gave me his jacket, asked me to use it so I won’t get wet. He pedaled back in a bike to the house. The wind was getting stronger and colder and that night was the tornado experience.
4) This is where I experienced the hot yoga. At Nirvana at downtown Jonesboro, a nice lady teaches yoga. It was really hot and difficult to breath. Sandra, the yoga instructor, told us what we should know as beginners: breath through the nose, do not force ourselves to do the stretching we cannot do. She will be happier to see us resting, lying down instead of pushing ourselves and later faint or throw up. How happy I was that she said that. I spent half the session either sitting down or in a resting (lying) position. I just enjoyed the heat (it’s like winter outside LOL!). I felt very light after the yoga session. I think I sweated like enough to lose some pounds hahaha.
5) I cooked dinner, I washed clothes. Things I long didn’t do in PNG. I enjoyed doing them here. Here, when I cook they all just politely compliment and ate whatever I cooked. Whether it was good or not, they cannot complain. That’s all they can get from me. LOL!
6) I have time shopping with AJ. And we go to Barnes and Noble where he reads his El Fili book and the summaries.
Nice place. Nice house. Nice experiences. Nice family.
