Its Tuesday

And so many of us are waiting for Wednesday.

Not me. I dont want to. This week has brought ups and downs. Rather moments of excitement and then dull days, much like today.

Yesterday and the day before I had notes that made my heart sing-one person who told me theyd told teachers already there that we would be coming over this week and they wouldnt be doing much because of it. Another teacher messaged me to let me know shes recently moved schools and it was stated that I will be at that school. She loves the school-better than her last-and she talked about how nice the teachers were and the environment.

I got so excited. I was all smiles. Anticipation started on Sunday because I know that they start work then. And even though I know things dont work on US time, I hope and hope time goes slowly enough that they can get things done and acconmplished before Fri comes.

Ive passed so many Fridays without reserve but this week is different. This week things seem a bit more definite as "the word" spreads that we are on our way.

Its only Tuesday.

Its only Tuesday.

In about five hours there itll be Wednesday.

And although I wait for Thursday instead, I dont think Ill sleep well tonite.

But for now, Ill help myself to some banana pudding :-)

This will do

So I just havent made it around to making a video of the place.Part of that is because my phone, which had the great camera on it,is no longer.And leave it to me to buy a cute phone with a horrible camera.yes, I have a camera with video but its just too much hassle.At least I think so. And because Im supposed to be honing my craft, I decided to post my place in pictures. Enjoy. My color palette all these switches for one little bathroom no tv. . .yet just the two of us! I love this contraption,lol and on the off times that this occurs. . . I just use my teacher dry erase marker,lmbo So,so glad to finally be clutter free! cleaning takes one day a week besides the every other day of sweeping bc its super dusty here.I have ONE pile of stuff left and thats only because I need a book shelf.Thats coming soon.

Paradise?

So Ive been thinking about a move to Reem Island  . Not because I have a bad place (I dont) or because Im in a bad location (Im not),but because we plan on being here long term and this place has much more of a home feel as there are so many amenities there. The only drawback is the the location, which is also nice as far as I know right now. Only thing is its too close to Tourist Club and thats not a place I care for too much. And if the link above doesnt convince someone maybe the future plans  will! We have all that we would need to stay there pretty much and this place has...drumroooooooollllll-CLOSETS! Once of them even a walk in. It may sound like it but I dont have my hopes up and Im not even excited about it at this point. Im just looking at my options.This would be the one and only time youd catch me living on an island. My only requirement? That I live on a  bottom lower level floor. Should be an easy enough request as most people want to be higher...

Braces in the UAE

This has been a long time coming. Ive wanted braces since forever. At home it wasnt in the budget.Here, the first year went by and I decided that if I didnt get them this year, I would probably keep putting it off. So I start the process of looking. Requirements? clean,efficient,KNOWLEDGEABLE, affordable. That was pretty much what I wanted. After some searching, I realized that I couldn't pay 25000 dirham...didn't really want to pay 14000 but would if I had to...and then I came across an  ortho place  in Dubai. hmmmmmm. Dubai? Perks were: no down payment,500 dh each visit, retainer included. I was in. So I called and went hoping against all hope that it would be more than the regular consultation because Id driven from Abu Dhabi! Fortunately, they xrayed me and told me about the process a bit. I didn't know what to ask so I took my  papers after signing to the "deal" and went home with the biggest grin ever on my face. I WAS GETTING BRACES! And then I...
