Today is a quiet day; since it is Saturday we had a relaxed day. Chuck went out early this morning to redeem shopper’s points at a local super market and did some grocery shopping. Nate and I read some until he got back and we had breakfast, then we talked to my mom, always a thrill when we get to talk to mom. After that I hit the books and studied my Chinese so my tutor won’t think I’m a total slacker tomorrow. For a break I went to the store and got some much needed lotion (go through tons of it in this cold) more lip gloss and some nail buffers. Nate has stayed in the house today and with the wind sounding like it does that wasn't a bad call. It has been windy for the last few days and the wind whips up the steps of our building and rattles the doors. Unlike in the US our apartment doesn't have doors to stop the weather from coming up the stairs. That is something that I miss about apartments in the US. My apartment complex in VA was all enclosed and it being a walk up meant no more than three floors, our seven makes coming here like an Olympic event but we are certainly getting more fit!
I have posted pictures that I found on my camera and didn't post before; the icy river in the park near our house, students leaving on New Year's vacation, and one I took today of the newest display at Vanguard...ENJOY
