Our new house
We just moved into our new apartment today. The girls and I really
love it!!. The universe is so good, because if you just let the creator do her
job she will always give you the best. So after the people tried to extort money
from me I started looking for a new place to live. While I was packing up my
stuff I realized that mold was growing in some of the corners behind the
furniture. Look at the blessing there those peoples greediness saved my health.
BLESSTATIONS!!!! The house was very cold because it was stone and marble, and
it did not get much sun. There also was a crazy man who lived above us and
always wanted to move things around at 11 o’clock at night. So moving was the
best thing for us, funny thing though had they not tried to get all that money
from me I would not have moved because moving is a a lot of work when you have
children. But god knows best… So our new place has 2bedrooms….YEAH!!! I have my
own room!!!! No more getting karate chopped in the neck while I’m sleeping; No
more waking up chocking and swinging thinking I’m getting attacked. …lol…Nice
sound sleep for me!! YEAH!! The girl’s room has twin beds so Nana is pumped, we
have a fire place, and the house is warm and gets plenty of light. But here is
the kicker, I asked if they could put in a washing machine and they said okay.
The guy calls and says he’s down stairs with the washer, so I’m thinking two or
three men will bring it up. But much to my surprise there is only one man. He
sits it down and says “Here you go” I’m looking like ‘what is this’. He starts
explaining how to use it, you have to pour water inside plug it up then after
take the clothes out dump the water, I cut him off “ like hold up, I’m sorry
but I don’t have a clue what you are talking about. I need a machine that I put
the clothes in dirty and dry and my next contact with them is rung out and
clean. You do realize I was only born in 1981, my grandmother would know how to
use this, but I am clueless.” He starts looking and me like ‘you spoiled American’
yes America has spoiled me a bit. …lol.. Then he says “if this is too much just
have your maid do it” then I said “ oh you got jokes huh??” he did not understand
what that meant, so I just asked “what maid”. He said she will be her on Wednesday,
have her wash the clothes, everyone in Morocco knows how to use this. Super
BLESSTATION!!! My new house comes with a house keeper…. I always wanted one of
those…. Yeah!!!
I could not wait until Wednesday; I needed clean clothes
now, so I tackled the weird manual machine today. I push it to the sink loaded
it with water, put my clothes in and soap, then let it spin for 20 min. took my
wet clothes out put them into a bucket, then drained the water out of the
machine. Then I put my wet clothes back in the machine with more water, let
them spin for 30 min. I’m sure they need another rinse cycle but I was tired by
this point and this process already took like 2hours. So then I rang each piece
by hand, I think I pulled a muscle in my ringing out a pair of sweat pants..lol
after that I took the heavy wet clothes to the roof and hung them up…. Wow! that
was a lot of work. I am defiantly giving the housekeeper a tip because that is too
much work for a nickel…literally…. I told Nana all I had gone through while
they were at school, her response “Welcome to Africa!!”…..
