Friday!! Today in language school was the last day for most of the students. I have my last lesson on Monday and then I will be done. It was very relaxed and for the most of class we just talked about the newspaper and what we are going to do for the weekend. Towards the end we met with the other class (advanced students) to play a game of battleship (language style). On the left side column there were verbs and along the top of the page there were verb endings. You had to guess where the ships were located by saying the verb using the right tense (past, present, future, etc.) Apparently Battleship is not that well know across the globe, making me the only one that knew how to play. It was quite amusing trying to explain the game in my broken Italian. Once everyone figured out how to play it was really fun. My team won! ☺
I wish I could say the rest of the day was that fun. I woke up with a head cold and didn’t feel good at all. I had to pick Ruggie up from school at 1 and we came back to the house. Around 2 he laid down for his nap and I joined him. Oh why did naptime pass away with elementary school, we should bring this back to the daily routine. We slept for an hour and half and then watched Shrek 2 in Italian of course. Pat came home early from work and ran some errands with her. Even though I didn’t feel well I needed to get out of the house. At 8 we had a simple meal of rice, veggies and Rabbit. It was not my first time to have rabbit but it was the first time to have it at a house. Alberto was like, “oh you should like it cause don’t you eat wild animals in Texas?” To which I replied, “In my house turkeys are as wild as my family gets.”
Right after dinner I got an intense nose bleed so I am calling it an early night and heading to bed before the sun even goes down (that’s about 9:30 here). As Scarlett says, “Tomorrow is another day” and with that the possibility of feeling better.

Hope today is a feeling better day. You sure manage to make the most of each day, that's for sure!I keep thinking about the church bells you hear from your window...I bet the sound is very peaceful, as you read your bible each day.... or night. Is it possible you gave me your cold through osmosis? :-)
Still amazed every day with your postings. I will miss them when I go to Ft. Lauderdale next week. Maybe my Dad has a friend with a computer..... Take care and I'll be in touch soon.
Love U,
Auntie D
I sure hope you feel better today. Did Pat know you were feeling bad? It's a beautiful day here. Do you have any plans? I was hoping you could travel some on weekends. However, I want you to have a companion. When do you go south on vacation? Take care of yourself and have a great weekend.
Love you very much! MOM
