All in a 24 hour clock

Ok so it started when visiting my sister and Andrew was attempting to use their bathroom. Once inside when he touched the electrical switch it instantly gave him a shock and then blew right off the wall. It also shut down the power bathroom in the bathroom until later when a electrician could be brought in.

First thing the following morning while waiting for my sister to make breakfast. Only she had two young helpers in her kitchen and one of hem accidentally turned the gas on in the oven. Side note here all our stoves are gas and require your special attention. So it was about 12 minutes into the prep of the morning where we heard and felt a loud BOOM! We actually saw a orange cloud travel from the kitchen to the living room and blow the curtains. The next thing that happened when Sandra my sister walk towards us or rather stumbled towards us with
her eyes as wide as saucers and shaking. Apparently she bore the brunt of the small gas blast. It actually blew the bottom wood panel on her stove at her legs. We evacuated the kids to the front of the apartment building and waiting for the men to descend and tell us when it was safe to return upstairs. This was great since in this culture it is offensive to leave your house and not look like you had showered, primped and prepped and put on something nice. And so the next 20 minutes was most uncomfortable as we sat barefoot, in PJs, hair unwashed, unbrushed and just plain looking awful. My sisters family lives on the 4th floor and the hirer up you live the more you feel earthquakes, and at one point the door man / guard came to ask us if we had felt a earthquake. We of course said no and then in all humility made our way back upstair to hide from our embarrassment.
Then once we left there we arrived to where we were living at the time, the Alliance Ministry Center. Only there were workers there painting and it made it hard for Sam and I to breath so we tried to stay out of the center as much as possible. So once we arrived that morning we realized that somehow our bedroom door was locked and here it comes there were NO KEY to unlock it! And we had everything of importance behind that door, $, clean underclothing and clothes in general as we just finished sleeping on a air mattress at my sisters and were returning home to get ready for the day. So after waiting around 2 hours and going through about 50 spare keys the ministry had we were given permission to hire el hombre de llaves. The man who works with keys that is always at the park. So after finding him and hiring him and watching him wrestling with the door for about 45 minutes we are able to get in and grab a change of clothes as it was then time to meet-up with a team member who graciously offered to take us to see 3 apartments that afternoon.
What did I learn from that day.... you never know what is going to happen next and you need to accept what comes at you with a clear head and just go with the flow. Oh ya and NEVER NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO HELP IN THE KITCHEN WHEN THERE IS A GAS STOVE INVOLVED.
