SPANISH VERSION (click here!)
Yesterday the water arrived 💦. I was able to take a shower. A cold one, because it would be too much to ask to use the heater. My brother got what we insist on calling "the taranta" and started throwing water around and cleaning the house. It was a solemn scene in which I, with my feet up on the desk chair, watched him frantically clean the entire house, knowing that if there is one thing he hates in the world, it is cleaning... So I kept quiet and stayed still, letting him exorcise in his performance all the helplessness generated by the long days when the aqueduct does not supply water. I love a clean and bright house. What a pair of desires for these times! But yesterday, with the tank full, I was afraid that the water would run out again because God knows when they will turn it back on. I would have preferred a little walk with a quilt on the path. But I understood my brother, so I kept quiet and stayed still. In the shower, I also felt guilty for such a waste of revolutionary kindness. As I had been living on a drip for days, carrying 5-litre bottles and washing only 'the parts', I needed one of those long showers where you scrub yourself and think about nice things. I opened a bar of Camay soap, even though there was still one of those fruit-scented ones in the soap dish. I felt happy and grateful, because that's what the manual says you should do to be happy in life. Today I woke up feeling great, made my Café Cardentey and the electricity came back on. So I'll be able to write in the morning. I have water and electricity this morning. I don't know whether to cry with happiness or thank this Revolution for these two achievements. Water and electricity on the same morning! Who would have thought? And there are still those who think it's a lie that this is progressing... 🙄 Happy Wednesday to everyone.
