Just over a week ago I received this emailGreetings I am a teacher this year at EBH. Today I was subbing for the 4th grade class and they wrote Dear Santa letters. One of the girls Sthephany asked only for a letter from you for Christmas to make her happy. I thought you would like t http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Kitchener/blog-229878.html Well I have news to share Firstly The Great Big Theatre Company. I finally got my cheque in the mail. It was even for the correct amount We won't be needing to take it to court then. HUGE relief I did have lunch with a few of the cast members yesterday though. It was so good to see them and chat. I was already in Hamilton for a job interview so it worked out nicely... which leads me to the n http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Kitchener/blog-219966.html Many of you are already aware but the nanny job didn't work out. I just didn't agree with a lot of the ways the parents were raising their children and I didn't feel like I meshed with the family. There were many issues with the behavior of their 4 year old son and I just wasn't patient enough to deal with things that I thought were inappropriate for a 4 year old but were justified by the parents http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Kitchener/blog-203518.html So I did it... I bought a car. A woman mom works with has a husband who sells cars. He had one in my price range and so we went lastnight to check it out took it into our mechanic today to have him check it over and then registered the car got plates and insurance and I'm now a car owner Fancy that. It's a 98 Pontiac Sunfire SE. Red. My favourite colour. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Kitchener/blog-197252.html The Need to leave London was getting too great i hadnt been on holiday since New York in Jan and even though i was leaving in 6 weeks or so i couldnt handle it.

I was so happy to be going home exhausted but happy. The flight was ok I was delusional excited and overly tired. I had been up for almost 24 hours. I just wanted to sleep. But sleep wasnrsquot an option. There was a young girl who was resting beside me http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Kitchener/blog-161107.html While our parents generation had Pearl Harbor VE and VJ days and knew what they were doing on those days. Our generation remembers what we were doing when President John Kennedy was assassinated and when the twin towers in New York fell. It has been five years since terrorist hijacked four planes and attacked the United States. Today it is referred to simply as 911. Herersquos to the heroe http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Kitchener/blog-88598.html A Week today I'll be in Honduras. Scary thought but also very exciting. At this time actually we'll be waiting at the airport in Miami to board the plane for Honduras. I still can't believe I'm leaving. I'm meeting people for lunches and dinners hugging them and saying goodbye but I still feel like I'm just going for a month or so... a whole year. I can't fathom it at the moment.
