* a bit of frustration *

It´s been a bit of a tricky week, but things are looking up! The sun has been shining for 3-4 days and that SO helps attitudes. We have a busy week coming up with Presentations to English classes for 3 days, then a visit to a public school here in Santiago, which should be quite a switch from Colegio. Friday there are no classes since it´s the ¨celebration¨ of Padre Hurtado (or now Saint Hurtado for almost a year) with a gathering at Colegio with other local schools. We, the group, will be talking about what to do that day, or families may have plans since it´s the last weekend here (don´t tell the group ... they DON´T want to hear that!)

My (Dubi) frustration recently has been getting photos up on the blog. For some reason they are not being uploaded. I did get some of the Valparaiso ones up, but not all, and after that the internet connection here at the house is not helping! I hope to get more up from school on Monday or Tuesday.

Monday I am having a meeting with the directors of the school for an overview of the program and any possible changes or improvements we can make for the future. We did some sharing when they invited me to their home for dinner yesterday, but we tried to keep away from too much ¨business¨ stuff and just enjoy the day. There are so many positive aspects to this program and a few glitches that can be adjusted for improvement.

Please, anyone associated with the program, drop me an email for any input. I´d so appreciate it: tdubita@yahoo.com

Otherwise, keep your eyes open for the updated blog info. Honestly, it IS coming! Thanks for your patience.
