Day 12 July 29, 2009


It was exciting to receive your email this week, though I realize that those days are numbered. I have stayed awake wayyyy past my bedtime several nights hoping to catch you on g-chat again. It is very frustrating being out of contact and the time difference is driving me crazy!! I am sure that I will get used to it after a while, but I won't get used to missing you. I loved hearing about your activities and am glad you are avoiding the sharks! You know it is almost time for shark week here ; ).

Big news on reality TV--she chose Ed. Now, I could pretend to care but I do not know any of the characters, but I did promise to let you know.

In family news, Joel has seen at least three bears while in Mammoth Lakes. He and Mike were very excited about that. They will be coming home tomorrow and are very sad that vacation is almost over. I think Joel would like to move out to California if he could-sunshine, girls, and golf can be very addicting.

I was hoping to go to Bald Head in August, but it isn't going to work out and I am very very disappointed!! I miss the ocean and I too am envious of you and your "hammock by the sea!"

I hope all of your boxes get there. I was going to send another today, but I wanted to get a few of the items you requested and stuff them in first. I will send it tomorrow. It will also include your pictures for your host family. Molly sent you a long letter and has been wondering if you got it. She is getting ready to move into her new apartment this weekend and is so excited. She misses you very much.

Dad and I are doing projects again. I am sure you are glad you are missing that! We decide to paint the basement and so we just did it. We are not sure if Joel will like the color, cuz it is melon like- orangish. Sooo, we like it and it made us start cleaning too, so now we hope to feel cozier down there and spend more time enjoying movies and walking on the treadmill. We will be entertained and in good shape by the time you return.

I paid your Comcast bill- I called them because we never received the bill. They said they sent it but I never saw it. So no worries!

Sorry it isn't very exciting here. We are all looking forward to hearing about your adventures and living vicariously through you. You are very special and we are so proud of you. Take care.
Love, Mom
