[CONTINUED FROM PART 1]
At 6:10 the power goes out, which is no surprise since it happens at
least once a week at the same time. We've learned to finish cooking
before this witching hour, so we settle down to our dinner of chile
and cornbread. Romao drops by to enjoy our candlelight and relax on
the couch, two things he doesn't have in his one-room mud home
nextdoor. After eating, Luc writes a blog and Janet plans her lessons,
then we finish a Sunday crossword we've been working on. We eventually
lock up and climb under our mosquito net in bed. Power comes back at
8:30, just in time to make popcorn and watch an episode of Glee on the
laptop, our escapist nightcap. We doze off around 9:30, to get up and
do it all again the next day. Sweet dreams! Bons sonhos!
