Wednesday May 30/12 update
I spent all morning uploading photos to 3 different sites
and then almost completing my photo wall.
There is still room for more but that will have to wait until I have
some money again
Bella got word that the alpaca store lady will pay her for
our shipment of Eleggant Hooks on Thursday.
I have enrolled in a new five-week Spanish class on Mondays
and Wednesdays at 10:30 called Communicating in Cuenca with teacher
Christine Magee, with assistance from Martha Mays. I ran to the Carolina Bookstore to obtain the
textbook (Margarita) Madrigal's Magic Key to Spanish $10. I
took one of their only 2 copies but they expect to have more on Friday. This class is supposed to prepare students
for the advanced Street Spanish class in August. The Madrigal method emphasizes use of
cognates to build vocabulary rapidly and is an excellent choice for mature
learners. Christine is a fluent Spanish
speaker and language teacher and has lived in South
America for many years.
I called Chris to see if he or Bettye was taking the class,
in case he needed the other textbook. He
said no, they were sticking with the class put on by the Carolina
Bookstore. He did however see my
switchblade in the blog so I went to get him one at Almacenes Ochoa. I will deliver it to him on Friday when we go
to Coral.
Bella hung around as Rosa
was here housecleaning today.
Tom Thumb continues to be brave with me as he zooms up to
the window when he hears it opening, then he hovers impatiently until I extend
my arms with the feeder. I’ll have to
video this for you all soon. He has done this five times in a row today.
We have been watching the Season One of the Good Wife. I knew nothing about it previously but I am
now totally addicted. There are 6 DVD’s
of 4 one-hour episodes each and we have watched 4 of them already. I guess we’ll have to keep our eyes open for
subsequent seasons.
Enjoy the pics.
That was today’s excitement.
Hugs to all.
