Newbies handling my section, Twilight, Coming back
... and was there when we did baby time. Apparently she asked if she could touch the babies, uh no! Dusty and Brittany had two juveniles, Arthur and Cheyanne out on the jungle gym and she kept putting her hand in Arthurs face. Dusty almost told her to leave. WHEN WILL THEY LEARN.
After the absolute dream that Priscilla was yesterday I even said to Claire I might not need her but to come for back up anyway. How wrong I was. I'd wanted to do it as close to feeding ...
The one with Sarah's first earthquake
... I was heading into kitchen to get another pan when I was thrown/fell into the wall. I thought I had serious vertigo/had seriously lost my balance-let's face it I crash into stuff a lot.

Decided to nab some stamps while I was here as I keep forgetting to post stuff. Costa Rica has the worse stamps EVER. Post boxes, ...
