pretty quiet here these days, so why not write some updates about the life in Jeri!
yesterday i finally bought myself a SIM-card. i paid BRL10 (NOK32/EUR4,3/RUB168) at the pharmacy for it and didn't have to fill out any forms. the only time i need it is when Marina is out of town and needs to reach me and Dadi has already gone home (cos if she hasn't, Marina would call her), which doesn't happen all that often, but it's good to be prepared!
the past couple of days we had a terrible stench around the entrance to the storage, which also started spreading into the house through the windows. Marina had suspected a leak in the sewage due to heavy rains, but Dadi insisted it was some dead animal trapped underneath the lid of the entrance to the sewage pipes. today we found out that Dadi won! it was indeed a toad that got stuck there, and which wasn't very easy to discover. we contemplated trying to fish it out, but in the end we just covered it with a bucket of dry sand. now we can breathe again!
on a more positive note - today the courier-boy working for our accountant brought us a rose. he said that Erivando (the accountant) is sending flowers to all the clients because it is the International Women Day tomorrow. it's been ages since i got flowers for the 8th of March!!! wha a nice surprise. happy 8th of March, ladies!!!
