Soon and very soon... but not soon enough...

Shawn caught a cold this week, but I was able to cover most of his classes this week so he's just about over it. He agreed to do the dishes since I taught for him so much. I would way rather teach an 8 o'clock class than do the dishes. He would way rather do the dishes. What are we going to do next year?!?

Tomorrow he agreed to teach at a local middle school for a few hours so the kids could have some exposure to a foreigner. It will be a lot more fun if he can shake what's still lingering of his cold. Should be fun anyway.

Yesterday some workers started knocking down the wall behind our apartment. By evening they had put a gate up, but this morning they knocked down even more of the wall. We're not sure why. It leads literally into the middle of a field. Today Shawn told me he saw a large group a students being directed into the fields through the hole in the wall single file with a bunch of shovels. We heard they were planting trees today. We are hoping they didn't knock that huge hole in the wall just so the students wouldn't have to walk around. It is possible though.

The anticipation of this final decision letter is killing me. I may actually die of a heart attack. I loved you all... you know, just in case.

Sorry...

We're sorry for not keeping everyone updated more often this semester.

We know many people are waiting to hear where we will be next year, and we simply don't know yet. We will tell you as soon as we do. It's hard for me to think of anything to write to anyone when I know what people want to know and don't have anything to tell them. If we were to post everyday it would simpy say "still waiting". I guess you can just assume that.

We should know by April 1st. The hopefully I'll be able to fill you in on a lot more details a lot more often because this waiting to know where we will be bit will not be consuming our lives.

102 days left.

Not a Whole Lot Goin' On...

I figured I haven't posted in a long time, so I should! However, there's not much happening so not much to write about...

We've started teaching again. We have about 14 hours a week of classes and the students (most of them anyway) have been much better behaved than last semester or last year! That's a plus.

We've started our "other" classes again too and that's all going well!

It was Taco Sunday last Sunday... delicious!

I started taking a Pilates class that I'm pretty excited about and hope I can keep up with!

Only about 109 days until we come home!!

Miss you all!
