Mucho Cansado

Spanish class tonight went much better than last week - thank goodness! We covered quite a few topics this week. Karl is getting pretty quick at conjugating verbs! I followed along with the lecture and tried to take notes faster (= sloppier!) so I could keep up with our Profesora. My reading comprehension is improving too. We were let out a bit early tonight because all of us students were mucho cansado (very tired)!

I am very happy because I finished writing out our schedules - now & how they will change in the future - (2 pages typed!) and just sent it off to our Social Worker! It took me two days to write it all out and Karl made a few changes and it looked good. So that is done - at least for now! Phew!

Now we are getting ready for tomorrow night's projects - our last "Work Night." Karl is bringing up supplies from the basement.


The projects planned for tomorrow night include:

• Bathroom: Mirrors/Trim/Molding


• Plumbing to Bathroom Sinks and Toilet


• Entry Baseboard and Flooring

Karl wanted to show you the progress on our tile project too - thanks to another friend helping us along - so here I am below with our cement board in the shower area, newly taped and mudded!

It is an enormous praise to see an "end in sight" as these projects get scratched off the list. We are incredibly thankful! As the time draws very close for us to get our referral for the kids, this is a mammoth relief!
