Review and Progress

Yes, I am still alive. I haven't blogged in forever. It's hard to have access to the internet anywhere, but at work, and it's hard to find time to blog at work, so not a lot of blogging is getting done. Anyway, here's the deal. I am becoming more and more at home here in the sandy land of Egypt. Things are going really well. I have moved since the last time I posted. I now have a home, a place where I can relax and truly rest. It's great. My fiance and I put up and decorated a fake Christmas tree this past week, making it feel even more homey and comfotable. The weather has been chilly, which is perfect for me. It's nice and cold so that I can bundle up in all the sweaters, and drink the hot drinks that I love, but it's not frigid to the point that I can't enjoy the cold like it gets in the USA. The only problem with that is that we never get snow days. I did ask God for a snow day this week though, and He answered by giving us a day off due to an electrical fire in the school. I was just happy for the extra time to catch up on work!!! I do really love teaching here. The staff and students are awesome. Every so often though, it's nice to have some down time to catch up on work. We will be getting a Christmas break soon though, and I will not be traveling for it, so I will be able to catch up on things. That will be nice. I am going to miss my family and friends a lot over the Christmas holiday. It's going to be strange to have Christmas all by myself. My fiance and his parents all have to work that day, so it'll be me. Pout. I'll have to find something to do. We shall see.
