myr update

hello all! happy almost end of 2006. here is my little update.

i met my family today. they seem really nice and totally ready to
talk to me in spanish and not exclude me at all. there are lots of
people in the house. gma and gpa, at least one son who has three
kids, the youngest of whom is almost 2, and another woman, i´m
guessing about my age, and i think she´s the daughter of the
grandparents too. i´m not totally sure. i make sure to mention
whenever i meet a group of people something about ¨mi esposo¨” so that
no one thinks i´m available for seduction!! i have my own room, which
i can lock when i leave. there is also an upstairs and then an
outside rooftop that is for drying clothes and a cool view. the dueña
seems very friendly and i am excited, and she said it´s not a problem
that i´m a vegetarian. that´s somewhat of a relief.
i also met my teacher for this short week. she is also nice, and
about half the lesson today was spent me talking about my wonderful
husband and then she wanted to see pics so it was off to the computer
and moldfarm and greenhodge and, of course, greenhen. SHE got all
teary eyed when i told her what a wonderful husband i have!!! it´s
cool to make someone ELSE teary eyed about him!!
i had my first “official” xmas dinner lastnight. a bunch of us at the
hostel made a yummy dinner and we finally were eating, at like 930 and
i asked is this an official xmas dinner? and everyone said yes. so
it was my first one. but it was vegetarian, which was awesome. i
think the food is finally gettingtomy stomach. it´s been very loud
all day. but apparently it´s normal to get parasites - so i´m not
worried. (that was for you, pa!)
hope yáll are doing well.
PAZ!!!
