Life here in the mission field is much busier so time is flying by! We had our lesson at the Institute this morning. There is little that is as much fun as it is to watch these students open up the teclada bag for the first time. They are so excited to learn - it is too bad that it gets difficult and not quite so much fun. No pain, no gain I guess.... We did find a gurney thing to haul our 12 tecladas to the elevator and into the room we teach in. Then got their 8 out so it took a little while to get going them all out and plugged in to various extension cord outlets or whatever those things are called.
Tomorrow we have twenty four in the class so I don't know how we will do that. These college kids are fairly strong personalities - can' t quite see them being willing to share. If you spend too much time helping one of them you have two more saying "hey, teach me, I want to know that too". What fun it is to get to know them though!
Went shopping to two different stores so you can imagine my husband wasn't all that excited. Can't wait to go shopping by myself again - and not have to depend on him for so many things. Communication is tough but getting better. It just amazing how you can understand some people and yet not have any idea what others are saying! We have been so busy I haven't spent as much time studying Spanish so I need to make time for that. Scott keeps looking for the "tire fixer" guy so he can turn him in but we haven't seen him again.
We made it to the temple tonight for the 7:00 session. Didn't see a person getting ready or in the hallway so thought we would be the only ones there but there ended up being quite a few in the session. Many different people work on Wednesday so it is fun to see them. I miss the women in the Tuesday sessions - they are great! We won't make it there again on Tuesday because we have the lesson for Santo Domingo. The one class is soon to become two so when the other class is to be taught has to be decided.
Valentines Day must be a big thing here. In every store they had rows of "stuff" that people were sorting through. Hope it's a happy day for all of our loved ones!
