We talked and talked and talked, then talked some more. It was good. I like her very much. She came back for lunch, and we talked until two. It felt good, my first classroom and child free day in absolutely months, to have no interruptions to our conversation, no bells, no people to feed, nothing. I feel amazing, although I am a little tired. I stayed up until two last night covering school books and sewing stuff on uniforms, things like that. And walking up hills, I haven't done a lot of that since the whole 'no-iron' thing, but I managed. I think the pills are kicking in pretty well now.
I had a Bazaar meeting at nine this morning with our 'site manager' and I have two meetings tonight, one at half past seven and one at eight, planning our site. It's going to be good, I can feel it. Christy and Finn are out delivering flyers. I'm ringing round the teenagers in the parish now, enlisting their assistance with my stalls. Plate smashing, coconut shy, darts, golf putting, air castle, mechanical surfboard, basketball shots, beauty parlour, dunk the teacher, rides on a Harley - you name it, we'll try it!
So, I'd better go cook dinner, huh. It's raining a bit now, and Asher is at soccer practice. He'll get rather wet! I guess I'd better go pick up the other two.
Today we received a Christmas card from
So. How was your day? Tomorrow, I will be WRITING. I'm sure I will.

We got a Christmas card this weekend too, from Tanzania!!! I think the blame for this one's late arrival lies squarely with the Post Office!!
Yes it is *g*
But yeah, a month is a looooong time. It used to take exactly a week to send stuff to Virginia or the other way, from Va to here, and Elaine used to say she could sometimes send something here faster than she could get it across Glasgow!!! I guess sometimes it's luck of the draw. Or the post office. Or the train or plane or ship or... camel *g*
We'll have to wait for

I think 4 hours a day might be slow for mail delivery... I'm voting for the camel (that's my Arab quarter talking)
Cool icon!
What a lovely way to celebrate 'freedom' with your friend!
Hope the Bazaar goes well!

Yeah, it was brilliant. For today's celebration, I will be having a long shower ;)
The bags are heavy and they get tired so even slower going to NZ !!
Sounds like you're keeping plenty busy!
