working hard

I went to the clinic - received a prescription for antibiotics - am now better. Feeling like my old self again (this picture is literally my old self back in September 2006).

sickness continues

I continue to be sick. The slight fever creeps up every day and the bowel problems persist. I have have yet to go to the clinic. They may be able to cure the physical malady but there is something much stronger bothering me. Yet I am here in the office, exhausted and with pressing work due.

I will detail this at a following post, and I hope doing so is not considered mere histrionics.

sickness

This week I have been ill. On Tuesday I suffered from dehydration that lead to stomach problems and body aches... yeah, I know I'm a wuss. Today I woke up at 3:45a.m. with chills and realized that I had contracted a fever.

The work this summer has been physically brutal. On both Thursdays and Friday's Collin and I take the kids out swimming, pretty much all day long. I have a 14 hour day on Friday and on Saturday run the sports taller. All in all, lots of physical work.

This is all coming together to wear me down. Today I'm taking another day off hoping to catch up on rest and some work.

chosica

To mark the end of the summer holidays (yes, it's warm and sunny here) the promotores and our team ventured out to Chosica. About an hour east of Lima, the weather here is perennially warm and dry. Water parks and picnic areas abound.

After a day of activities (three legged races, treasure hunts, volleyball match, etc.) we capped the adventure with a trip down the Tobogan la Roca. Here's Beto, a wonderfully comic promotor, making a splash.
