Schlepping water
It's already almost Thursday? Again? Today was fun because we didn't have any p.e., we just got to hang around in the gym. And after school I helped my grandma buy and schlep (meaning carry, drag, lug) water from the store. Most people here don't drink the tap water, not because it's unclean, but because it's just a thing that you have in your house. Bottled water. Sometimes with carbonation. But anyways, water is heavy, and I think it's ridiculous that my small, older and therefore somewhat fragile grandma should have to pull a cart full of water up a hill home every few weeks. But she'll do it anyway, because she's that way. But while I'm here I get to be the pack mule. :) Quality time with grandma. Gotta love it.
