Today after school we’ll be bidding an American family ‘adios’ as they will be heading back to the states tomorrow. They arrived the same time we did and have two girls at the Friends School. Their departure is a little unplanned, as the man of the house broke his arm (I think in several places) and after visiting San Jose for treatment, it is just not healing well. He is almost 80….but swear he doesn’t look a day over 60! Must be good clean living. It will be pot-luck, so perhaps I’ll get creative with the left-over rice from last night, a jar of chutney we’ve had in the cabinet and some raisins or peanuts.
Tomorrow, another pot-luck at Mary’s house with the Peace Pilgrim crew – we are going to watch some of the footage from Peace’s journey – should be fun and educational. Sometime between the Peace Pilgrim gig and school getting out at 2:15, we’ll try and duck into Leslie and Anna’s to wish Happy Birthday to Rachel and steal a brownie! And then the weekend!
Another busy week – ICE came to fix the electrical line issue – the tree trimming job…a little primitive, but it works. We are all fine and are glad that the boys understood the significance of keeping clear of the tree in question.
I am knee deep in window washing and spider web clearing at the house, trying to make it look presentable for my family’s visit. The house is all windows and those louvered windows are a real pain to clean – but I must say, am enjoying the unobstructed view (at least for now) of not having to deal with the boys dirty finger prints smeared all over.
One more week and I'll be heading to the airport to greet mom, dad and Beth! YAY -
Spanish lesson yesterday...oh, my aching brain - lots of work on pronouns...UGH!
We continue to keep Jeanine and Kevin in our thoughts and prayers as they remember his father and celebrate his life. We wish we could be there with you!
Peace,
