Second day of class...

So, today, the 2nd day of class, I was late again. No bus strikes this time, just me not realizing that the bus in this neighborhood only comes every half hour. So, I was 6 minutes late for class. I am beginning to get the reputation of being the late one which is so ironic since I am at work at 7:35 on most days. Class did seem a lot longer, though, being there for the full 3 1/2 hrs. At any rate, that is going pretty well. I had a rather embarassing verb conjugation situation at the board today. A verb I had never heard of (and now can't remember, should have written that down) that has three roots and I got them all wrong (and in the present tens, yikes!) AND no one in the class jumped in to help which I am assuming is because they didn't have a clue either, at least I hope that is why.
This afternoon has been my first at home and it was great. Hilda took a nap, I worked on planning a trip for this weekend, Vinicio helped Claude (host dad) in the yard building an above-ground swimming pool out of cement blocks!?!? I am wondering how this this is going to hold water and not fall over. I doubt I'll get to see that before we leave.
Anyway, all is well. Hilda is getting used to things (and not acting up quite as much as when we first arrived), Vinicio and Claude seem to be getting along well building and repairing things and I am just fine.
