Last week the volunteer coordinator at the Adult Baisc Education center where I teach ESL once a week agreed she would arrange to have my class moved out of the room with the pop machine, so people wouldn't just walk in and out and interrupt us the whole time. So this week we were moved... in to the room with the hot water machine for everyone's cocoa and tea. Next time I hear some ignorant redneck say Why dont' those people speak English, I will tell him I think I have a few ideas why.
This Sunday I pulled on an extra pair of wool socks, pulled my husband's set of skis out of storage, and cross country skied across a local park, several times. It was my first time to ever try to do that! It was pretty fun, although I can't see why some people devote their entire lifestyle around it.
Now it's too cold to go outside at all. It's been below zero, every day for the last 3 days now.
Saturday night our friends came over and brought over a big cake, even though it was one of theirs' birthday the day before. I mean, we should have bought the cake , right? It's fun to have people over.
Monday night I took my husband and kids to the Sons of Norway Christmas pot luck. they were the only children there, even though the email said to bring your children. I think I'm the youngest member. Everyone else is very elderly. My kids liked the snacks, but otherwise they were very bored. My rye krisp and salmon (from Cub Food grocery store) seemed to go over very well though.
Next Saturday we've invited over a college student from our old school, and his room mate. This boy has been instant messaging me about my old school since before he was even accepted to it. He arrived like 4 months ago and has been attending ever since. And I only live about 20 miles from my old college. And I haven't even visited him once or anything! I'm glad he and his room mate are coming. I'll feel really bad if he goes home for winter break and I haven't even met him in person.
My husband has a lot of job interviews lined up, all of a sudden, but still no job offers.
