Hi, everyone!
Well, I have windows! Finally. The difference in temperature is amazing (though the front ones keep blowing shut -- gotta fix that). Gonzalo helped me finish painting my apartment on Sunday night as well... well, almost. I ran out of primer, so there's one last bit. But, for the most part, things are _almost_ done so that I can get to organizing and stop living in a pile of stuff! I'm just waiting on some shelves for all the stuff I have to store in the apartment for security... extra supplies and pop-up books and stuff.
We had a really good day today, with some newcomers who are really fantastic -- girls, too, to even out the bunch! We did watercolor paintings and, for the most part, everyone played nicely (the usual boys were horsing around and ended up with watercolor on their faces. Grr). So, things are going very well.
Dad left on Friday, so I've just been trying to get caught up on stuff for the English class and making sure that things stay fairly organized in the classroom so that nothing gets ruined or lost! The kids are putting things away, but they're still learning how to do it correctly.
Well, that's all for now; enjoy the pictures of my view! I am thoroughly enjoying getting to see the sun now. (It always sets at 6 here, so windows make for a more cheerful and energetic me.)
Hope you are all doing well!
