Gloomy
August 6, 2007
We’ve been here almost a week, but it feels like longer. We have had meetings every day, coupled with shopping trips to various stores. Every day we get up, get a ride to school, have breakfast, talk, and then maybe work in our classrooms. It’s been exhausting.
We have had the opportunity to visit several other apartments as well and we can’t help but feel that we have been robbed. Some of the other places are in older sections so there are trees and no construction. They are more spacious and have balconies so that one can enjoy the air. They also have nice views of the city and the surrounding hills. Carrie has talked to our boss about the possibility of moving, but we are not optimistic. So we will just soldier on. Fortunately we have to renew our contracts after a year so that will be a time when we can move somewhere else.

Dear Carrie, Mark & Zachary,
congratualtions on negotiating a new situation! I am so glad your house will change! That's is great news, and the new crazy apartment sounds like fun.
Don't forget to take a photo of the front door of "Hotel Galatica" for the memory album of fron doors: the next one will only be better!
Love,
Linda
