They made me stay in Peru on my Wedding Anniversary!!!

Well, just when I thought I was going back to Utah and eat normal (yesterday, the 16th), the company asked me to stay one more week here. I had two huge reasons to say no: my wedding anniversary and to help my youngest daughter move to her own place on Monday - the nest will be empty! But then the project is in trouble and they need to do stuff next week that require me here and there was no way I could go. That was one hour before the cab arrived to take me to the airport!!! So, I had to call the airline company and the hotel and change it all so the cab took me back to the hotel instead.

I was tense! There was my wife on Skype saying "But it is our anniversary!" and the boss on the speaker phone "But it is best for the company that you stay!" and this picture shows me as I was listening to both and having to make a decision. So, my wife who is a true saint let me stay. But it was not easy, I know she is sad. The whole week I have had heart burns because of so much spicy food but today was the worse of all I think because of all this. Thank goodness for Salt de Frutas Eno (it is an anti acid for situations like this. I bought 15 packets now.)
