TGIW, That’s what you say when your weekend starts on
Wednesday. Well made it through the week and beginning to get a handle on
things. But…although it is the weekend we have to go in and help with entrance
testing for an hour and a half in the morning.
This afternoon after school we went for a walk on the beach, the water is so
warm, can’t wait till I have a car and can go as I please. As we walked on the beach we met a large
group of Omani girls, they were so excited to meet us, we felt like rare birds.
They had to stop and talk and ask us questions and have lots of pictures taken.
They were so cute. The mosquitoes have discovered us and are coming in every
hole in the building, no screens at all and as one fellow said, “It felt like
Pearl Harbor last night”. My laundry room has a cement ‘screen’ with holes large enough to let in a small bird.
Had to get my picture taken for my residency card and for a
lot of other things where it is needed. I’ll need a medical on Monday. I signed
my contract today. No AC on yet but they say that is unusual but I love the
heat. My feet haven’t been cold since I left Canada.
