Heidi , my housekeeper, just stopped by. She said "Holy Day-ok?" I said ok wondering what she was telling me that for. She got a sad face look then went to her locked closet and took a bunch of cleaning stuff out and gave it to me along with trash bags, etc. She usually takes the towels, and bedding to wash on Thursday and brings it back on Friday and puts it in her locked closet for the next week. Today, she put the towels up in my closet and said "ok?" again, I said ok. What in the world is she doing? She started to leave and looked at me sad and said "problem" then said "Carmen". uh oh, I thought there might be a problem with Carmen. (She is in charge of the condo from CCI) I was afraid that the balcony door not locking yesterday and having the repairman over upset Carmen. I thought ,maybe Carmen is sending us home early. After my usual worrying, I thought - Maybe Heidi was trying to say "Holiday" instead of "Holy Day" and I won't see her anymore before I leave because she reached out sad to hug me when she was leaving. Well, we leave Thursday, May 8 for home and she comes to clean on Thursdays. She is really my good friend. I will miss our "talks" in 2 different languages where we laugh and make hand signs for communication and facial expressions especially with that washing machine .

Holy Day.....Holiday.....What's the difference? That is so hilarious! I am so glad you to a picture of her. I must admit I am a little disappointed b/c I thought she would be wearing a tradition blue and white maid outfit with her bussoms popping out! Oh well.
You should have gotten her email and you could have stayed in touch with her. Well...not sure how you could translate an email,but you could always share pics:-)
