I have talked about Tia, who lives here in the compound, on the other side of the courtyard. She is 85 and has some dementia and has been so nice to me. She doesn't sleep well and is very nervous at night so one of Gerardo's brothers sleeps in her house. Today I made her a dream catcher with lots of beads to catch the bad dreams and lots of feathers to help the good dreams make their way to her.
Gerardo said she would like the bamboo rather than the plastic.
One of Gerardo's friends is coming today. For a week. She was here when I first moved in. It will be nice to see her again. She and her mother come and stay in the upstairs apt. Her mot his is from here and likes to stay inn town rather than out at one of his houses in the hills. It will be good to have someone who speaks English and can ask questions for me.
