uh-oh!

After my last blog, my computer started giving all the instructions in Spanish. Yeah, I AM trying to learn Spanish, but not on the computer! I cant even get this thing right in English! This is the third time I have typed this very same story because it keeps disappearing suddenly in mid-type! So, since I couldnt understand the Spanish version, I frantically e-mailed Lynette, who told Randon, who quickly gave me instructions on how to change back to English. Time went by and I didnt open the computer. There is a 23-year old volunteer at our office who speaks English and knows computers like any other young man that age. It took him about three minutes to fix it. I hadnt logged in!!!!!! I hope speaking Spanish isnt going to act like that! We actually ARE beginning to pick out a few words in peoples' conversations, so I guess we are making progress. Last Sunday's talks were given by two gringos in Spanish. I understood ALL of it! Now, if I can just break apart the speed of the chilean spanish.......
