Well today was a very tough day in paradise. For some reason the boys are being really big punks. Needless to say today was not fun at all. On top of all that I am still sick. But that’s enough negativity…
Today was the last day of language school, however I am still going to meet with my teacher and practice. I am also going to meet with Alberto’s niece next Tuesday to practice Italian. I spent the rest of the day playing with Ruggero because he is still home with Chicken pox.
Tuesday
Today has been great so far because I stayed home with Ruggie and his nonna (grandma) She is a sweet lady and we have a good time even though we don’t understand half of our conversations. Today she fixed us pasta, meatballs, salad, and of course desert. (Makes me miss my grandmas even more but it is nice to have a nonna over here). At lunch it began to hail so I decided not to go to the train station like I planned earlier. Ruggero is now taking a nap with his grandma and I think I might as well because I still have an awful sinus infection. At 4, Filippo and I are going to a birthday party for a little girl in the neighborhood. I am looking forward to this cause I know the mother and she speaks English so I won’t just be sitting there like the last party. After the party we will come back home and eat dinner with the whole family and then go to bed….Not that exciting lately but hopefully I will begin traveling soon so I will have more to report. Some of you have been asking for my address so because not everyone has an email I will post it here:
Carpenato Family
Corso Galileo Ferraris, 67
10128 Torino, Italy

Hey Party-girl...You have been to more bithday parties overthere than I have been to in my whole life!!! Poor Ruggie's down with the chicken pox... he'll be inside for a long time, huh? Rest when he rests... I have a feeling he'll bounce back with more energy than ever. I'm anxious for you to be able to start traveling on the week-ends... I wish you had a companion to go with... but, I have faith in you, Lindsey,to have the greatest time all by yourself!Can hardly wait for more postings....Love You Lots... Auntie D
Thank you for the address. Grandma R. will certainly appreciate it.I have printed it(as I do all of them} so I will get it to her later today. I hope you are feeling better. Please ask Pat if you can see a doctor to get some antibiotics. You could possibly have a touch of the chicken pox. I so enjoyed our chat yesterday. I hope things level out w/ the boys/ If you can manage I know all the experience and travel you are going to do will make up for their misbehavior. Make the best of your last 54 days. I love you MOM
Even Mary Poppins had trouble with bad behavior at first. Maybe you should try a magic bag or "A spoon full of sugar." In the end, you and Van Dyke will win these kids over. Boys will be boys, but eventually, they fall for the girl.
