Well, the week-end is behind us and it was lovely. We got all of our errands done and always looking at the new things in the exchange. I always go to the books and magazines to see what is knew. Lennie goes straight to the electronics. We really did not get much of anything just a couple of needed things and a couple of magazines. Had our lunch of Pizza Hut pizza and finished it off with spaghetti eis! Came home and did the rest of the laundry and chilled out the rest of the day.
Yesterday Lennie had lots of work to do from home. His job always has one more thing for him to do. He really is going to miss it though. He really really like his job. I wrapped some boxes yesterday and read and watched a wonderful old German movie about a circus. it was so good. Could hardly understand a word but it was just a sweet movie from the 50's.
Snow is in the forecast for today but it has not happened yet. It is getting colder as the day goes on. Just got back from running over to the backeri to get brochen and had to pick up milk. I had a cup of coffee with my friend's who work in the backeri and they wanted to know about the awful shootings at Ft. Hood. I told them I had many friends there and they were so interested. Interestingly enough all but one is Muslim so they wanted to know how I felt about Muslims? The door is opening it really really is...please keep this in your prayers for me.
Yesterday I fixed a truly American Sunday dinner. Lennie had seconds and took all the rest with him to work this morning. We had meatloaf, and I make the best meatloaf in the whole world if I say so myself, garlic mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. It was so so good. Sometimes you just need the "comfort" of home...ha!
We leave Wednesday morning very very early for our journey to Poland and Dresden on the way back. So this will probably be my last blog until we get back. I will have lots of pictures and stories I am sure. Now, pray we do not get into snow because it is in the forecast. I love going on these journeys. We are renting a car so we will be driving which means I can fill the car up with polish pottery if I want We shall see....I really need nothing unless I see something I just have to have! the biggest reason for our trip is to see Auschwitz as I have said before. We do not want to leave here without seeing it. We have been to Dachau but have been told this is way beyond Dachau, cannot imagine that, but we shall see.
May you all have a blessed week and I shall connect when we return.
Tshcuss,
Debby

ReplyDeletealso, begin to prepare yourself for the auschwitz experience. it is very emotionally overwhelming...almost like you're in dream. imagine how you felt when you went to dachau and times that by like 100. i look forward to talking to you guys about your experience...and we'll be praying for safe travel mercies. love you!
