I haven’t written in a while mostly because I am going crazy but right now I am at the coffee shop relaxing with an iced latte and things are looking up.
From last Sunday until this morning my brother Jeremy, his wife Cristina and their two kids, Elijah and Arielle, were visiting. Two of my roommates were in the states so the whole family got to stay with me very comfortably. It was tons of fun and very exhausting. I am very blessed to not have biological children coming into my life any time soon.
Since I have less than three weeks left here I figured I can get by with fewer than twenty pairs of shoes and I was able to send home two bags worth of stuff with them. That means I should have more space to buy you gifts.
In order to keep the excitement going for my last 18 days here, tonight two of my college friends, Keiz and Salena, are coming. They will be here until next Monday and Keiz made an itinerary so I’m sure it will be an adventure.
Last week I hired my replacement for the library, her name is Rosemery and her training officially started last Thursday. She is very nice and very talkative, lots of her talking is unrelated to the task on hand so I think I need to work on channeling her enthusiasm into more relevant topics. Today we are going to buy books together.
I think things are more stable here politically now. And by that I mean that democracy is losing so the socialists stopped burning tires in the streets.
I hope you are all enjoying listening to Christmas carols, I am.
Love, Joy
