No school!

Hello all,

Well there is no teaching for at least three weeks because of swine flu. Lame!!! My host mom was making her own face masks yesterday because they are sold out at the local pharmacy. Other then that, everything is fine here. Yesterday we had our first snow! Very exciting. My host mother's grandaughter is staying with us until she goes back to school. We are having fun. I taught her how to play Uno and she really likes taking pictures with the Photobooth thing on my computer.

I am attempting to do NanoWrimo--the thing where you write a 50,000 word novel in a month. Since I have done it the last 2 years, I really want to do it this year too. So far I am on track, but it's gonna be hard. We shall see how it works out.

There is SOO much more to say, but I just wanted to give a quick update. Miss you very much.

Much love,
Rose
