Day Off

Today I slept in and since it was our day off - you guessed it - it rained all day!  After breakfast, I started the job hunting process and preparing for English Klub lessons.  I found some great websites with video clips from Sesame Street - even my favorite on "C is for Cookie and that is good enough for me."  So if you meet any Polish kids singing that song...you can think of me!  LOL  The guys went to the corner store to get rolls around 2 PM, cheese, deli meat, cookies and chocolate ice cream (for me...but I shared).  LOL   Back to the room to work on some more stuff and had a chance to chat with my parents.  Apparently I sound a bit different when I am in Poland, but when I laugh - then my Dad recognizes me.  In his defense, I am congested.  Around 4:30, couple of the guys and I went to the park and threw the football...who knows I might actually learn how to throw it properly yet!  Then we got ready and waited for the bus to go visit Bart and Joanna.  The guys forgot the cookies, so there was a flower stand and I got some flowers for him.  He is doing well and this coming week, he goes back to see the doctor and hopes to get something like a walking boot or at least a cast where he can actually bend his knee all the way.  We had a good conversation...we got to share our faith and Joanna asked some tough questions.  It was interesting to hear some of their views on church too.  Joanna made us a very nice dinner - chicken with mushroom sauce, yellow rice and cauliflower.  The guys will probably go to visit them again next Saturday and I am kind of disappointed that I will not be able to go.  So despite the rain, it turned out to be a pretty good day.  :0)
