I live in Spain!!


It is now the start to the third week here in Segovia. It has taken awhile for me to adjust to the schedule, but I think I can now say I'm set. I was in the "I'm ready" phase for a long time, but I'm pretty sure I am now living in Spain. WHOA! (That's a picture of the door to my piso)



My reasons for this statement:
3 weeks seems more like living than just a trip...
-I've gotten lost a few times.
-I can now make it to and from places without getting lost. (Most times)
-I can go to the grocery store by myself.
-I can go buy pan for Julia.
-I can joke around with Julia.
-Days have become pretty routine.
-I'm okay with wearing boots outside my jeans! ha
-I found my favorite cafe.
-I have said "Taluego" while passing someone on the street.
-I'm kinda getting used to the kissing on the cheek greeting.
-We found a church to attend on Sundays!
-I have eaten some weird form of Pig-and I somewhat liked it!
-I watch pasa palabra-favorite game show of Julia & her mom-& get some of the answers!
-I'm understanding more-espanol that is!
-I'm loving the siesta
-And eating lunch at 2 and dinner at 9:30ish has become normal.

I have to read my book for literature so I don't have much time to write, but I definitely feel like I'm adjusted. However, I won't say it's always easy or that I don't get homesick. I miss you all and the US. Thanks for your prayers and encouragement! Teddi, Sam, and I meet for bible studies each Tuesday and we decided to start each day reading Psalms. I loved what I read in Psalms 8 the other day. Especially, "Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in ALL the earth!"
