No Capito

So no capito means i don't understand. I've said this way too much.

There are always men coming to the house to do work outside the house. the other day a man can up and rambled in Italian and Lola and I were the only ones home. so I said ingles.. no capito. mi dispiace (Im sorry)... but he just kept talking. so i got my phone and said amanda?Adriano? like i could call them so he could ask them whatever. anyway he called Adriano and told him whatever and gave me the phone and Adriano said "hey Susie... it's okay that he is there." which i knew. so basically the man was just telling me what he was going to be doing. ha.

The cleaning lady, Erica, is so nice. I really like her.. she is from peru..so she speaks Spanish and Italian..but no English. I was cutting up cheese for Lola yesterday and she said America? asking if the cheese was from America, and i really didn't know that you couldn't get cheddar cheese in Italy so I said something like "no, italy" she wanted to try some because she thought it was from America.  Anyway I talked to amanda and she said it WAS from America.. she brought it in her suitcase for when we eat tacos. so I felt mean..since Erica wanted to try some.

Also with Erica.. she was cleaning yesterday.. and she handed me some bed sheets while I was walking to my room.. and she said something in Italian. So.. when someone gives you sheets... you put them on the bed...I thought. So I was putting the sheets on the bed.. and she came in and just started laughing hysterically and talking in Italian. and I just was like what the heck did I do wrong...she said something to Amanda and they laughed and she was just meaning for me to put them in the drawer because she changes sheets on Thursday...so we took the sheets off and made the bed... and I felt stupid.

The other day when I drove the car by myself for the first time.. When I was getting off the dirt/off roading road to get on the road to go to town.. a little man was walking.. my windows were rolled down and he came up to the window and said something... I heard Dove.. which means where... but i just smiled and drove off.. and then I felt so rude...but I didn't know what to do. Then when we were walking today we saw him again... and he was nice. Lola liked him.

Okay. the pictures I just uploaded to my computer I cant get the on here.. so maybe tomorrow I'll put some of today up. Here is some random ones of since I have been here.
