A bit of agression

Bruna and Pepe had a bit of a break down today because on one hand they don't know what to do next, if they are going to move to another region (Pepe also brings up moving to the Czech Republic, god knows why the C.R.) or stay and adapt and on the other the lack of organisation from the local council and in the big picture of the government. They don't know if they were excluded from a public meeting the day that passed or not, if they are going to get funds to reinforce the buildings, if they still have to pay taxes and the bills which people in other regions affected just as much, don't have to pay anymore. And than there are Erica and Michele who rely very much on their parents. I can understand what they're getting through.

But it was nice to get together around the fire in the evening when the spirits calmed down and hug, eat some biscuits and "colombo" cake with tea and liquers. And to think of it even though it started raining again in the evening it was a good day in the end because we got reorganise in the big tent, brought some other two beds in instead of the tent, I got to cut some grass for the chickens and open up the ground for them to pick worms from and we also got to reinforce the sheep enclosure where we placed the cows instead. Hope they don't escape once again! I've also washed the dandelion roots me and Luisa picked yesterday and we'll try and make dandelion root coffe tommorow. Here is an article on how to do it.

Oh! And not to forget that during work on the sheep (now cow) enclosure we had another earthquake. We found it's magnitude, time and location on this very good site dedicated to recording seismic activity in Italy: Sito dell'Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia .
It was a Magnitudo(Ml) 3.2 - ABRUZZO - L'AQUILA at 24/04/2009 15:38:53 (italiana)
