where's the beat?

This weekend i "experienced" German dancing... sort of... I went to a "dance" at the church i go to. One thing i learned is that here, I can dance! I can't dance anywhere else but what i try to do on the dance floor fits in here! I love that.. I guess that maybe i am really getting used to the culture or something!

i"m supose to remember to write on this thing?.....opps

My life if slowly returning to normal... if life over here is ever "normal." This afternoon I walked down the streed about two blocks, ran across the street (against the "red man"), avoided getting run over by a smart car that was trying to park on the sidewalk and made it to the grocery store. From there i put an Euro in the slot to "rent" my cart and went into the store... I always have fun going up and down the rows finding what it on my grocery list. It is aways a challenge to try to find everything that I am lookin for. I always end up forgeting, or not being able to find something. Today it was the cream. I looked everywhere for it. You would think that cream would be pretty easy to find but no, today, i could not find it anywhere. It didn't appear to be on the shelf with the shelf milk or in the cold section with the fresh milk and yogurt, after a while i decided to forgo the cream and just use milk... then i had fun picking out cream cheese.. i forgot the word for it so i just guessed and had to ask Evangeline when i got home if i got the right thing...(I did!) Then i checked out and threw everything in the cart while the check out person rang up everything... then i handed her some money (hoping it was enough) and then went to go and pack my backpack to get everything home... Like i said, it was a normal day, that is normal for here...This week I have a lot of different jobs a few of my job titles this week are teacher, sister, mom, tutorer, cook, hostess, just to name a few... life is never boring here...
