I may have peaked?

Reasons why today is the greatest of days: 

      1.     Slept in. Heck yes.

      2.     Breakfast was fruit salad: papaya and cantaloupe. I’m not sure mi Mama understands the depth of love I have for papaya, but I’ve attempted to convey it, and today she gave it to me and I wanted to cry with joy. Café con leche, fruit salad, and eating at my slow pace. (There’s a little neighbor girl that Miriam (mi Mama) watches on the week days, and she always thinks it’s so funny that I eat so slow. She tells me I lost all the time, which I can def appreciate, since I too am competitive.  :)

3.     I cleaned my room. Perhaps a bit stupid, but I do like that I know my floors are mostly dirt free. To have concrete totally dirt free is unlikely, but mostly is achievable!

4.     Mi Mama took me to the neighbor’s house to meet their monkey. Yes. True life-pet monkey. And I got to pet it. The guy didn’t realize just how crap my Spanish skills are, so he talked his face off about the monkey’s likes and dislikes, and I THINK he said that the monkey was attacked by their dog, but that the other dog and she are friends. I think the bad dog is actually a pit bull, so I guess I’m not so shocked, but I am a little sad about it. And my heart broke that he had a leash on, but they seem to love the monkey and give it space to do her thing. Mixed feelings: 1. I love that I got to pet a monkey. 2. Should I be able to pet a monkey? Also, if monkeys ever take over – I hope she remembers I was nice to her…

5.     No school. No class. No nada. Please and thank you. I’m wondering if mass is on the agenda today? How funny would it be that the one Catholic girl (I think at least – idk) in my group gets a family that doesn’t go to mass.

6.     As I sat down to type on my computer, mi mama brought me a delicious smoothie type thing. Literally after typing, “why today is the greatest day,” she delivers me a delicious fruit smoothie thing. Probably has some icecream or something unhealthy in it, but still – cold and delicious? Mmm hmm. Today's lunch is below. It's only 2:30, so fingers crossed this day just keeps getting better!  :)
