Hello.

I am still behind on writings. I may just start to pick out random stuff that is happening, because writing about my entire days have become boring and repetitive for me. Or at least, that's how it seems.

Saturday was a fun day for me. I just went out by myself. Actually, after being up until 2 am, I was really tired, and so at 8am I put my ear plugs in and slept until 11. Then I started making homemade bread to take to Ted and Christina's for lunch on Sunday. While I was at it, I made some of Mom's spice bars. Then I got showered up and ready, and finished my bread. I took the car to the Lunel train station and got the next train to Montpellier. I went there looking for hemp, didn't find any in the craft stores. I just looked around, music playing in my ears, and avoided making eye contact with people. I ended up wandering into a huge bookstore and bought myself a pen and a French Bible. I could have spent hours and hundred's of dollars on books. But, I'm poor. And I was hungry. And I am poor and didn't want to spend money on food. So, I took the train back to Lunel, drove back to Fred and Gillian's and made an omlette.

Sunday was a good day too. Fred, the boys and I went to church, I sat with Laura and Matt (Laura's boyfriend who was visiting from Ireland. He has such a thick accent, I couldn't hardly understand a word the boy said)... I brought my bread and some of the spice bars with me to Christina and Ted's because after church they had a pot luck for the university students. It was a good time. I sat with the French speakers instead of the foreigners. I did it for my own good. I would have much rathered been more social and sat with the English speakers. But, on the plus side. I know more French people now. Fred and the boys picked me up afterwards. I wrote some notes and talked to Dad on the phone for a bit after I got back. I ate a ham and cheese sandwich for dinner at like 8pm, because we ate a lot of food at lunch time. At Ted and Christina's they started playing the Once soundtrack on their speakers, and I told them that they were now two of my most favorite people. Then, I got a huge craving to watch the movie. I brought it with me from home, but hadn't worked up the courage to watch it. Last night, I got to do that. Well, I actaully fell asleep like 10 minutes before the end of the film. Oh, and in February, The Swell Season is doing a show in Paris. I am going. I don't even care if I have to go alone. It has been added to my list.

Today has been a time and a half. I didn't wake up to my alarm, and suddenly woke up at 7:30, and flipped out a bit. Thank goodness I had the car so that I could drive the boys to school. We got ready in a hurry and then I dropped them off. I got back, showered, and then did my nails. I hadn't much else to do anways. ummm Oh, and I finished my movie.
I picked the boys up and took them home. I made pan fries and some chicken for lunch. Then, I cleaned the kitchen and dining room while the boys played nicely. This playing nicely lasted about 7 minutes. When it was time for them to have 'quiet time', and just chill out and read some books and maybe try to sleep, I got yelled at, kicked at, told "NO!" several times. I was fed up and didn't feel like dealing with them, and I'm really tired today for some reason. For now, they are being quiet again... (*fingers crossed*).
Gillian's flight gets in at 6:30 tonight and so she and Fred should be back by 7:30...hopefully...
