Sleep, TV, and Pizza- What a Great Holiday!

This week is our host country’s National Holiday which means for us a week and a half off from language school. We have really enjoyed this break. We’ve slept in, caught up on a few projects around the house, enjoyed afternoon naps, decorated for Fall, and had the chance to enjoy our favorite tv shows… We started the 4th season of The Office, finished the last season of Lost, and managed to through in a few episodes of Boston Legal into the mix. Even though we are out of school for the week, Marcus has stayed busy with his online Seminary class. He has 40 verses to memorize before his midterm next week. Yikes! We’ve needed this week to rest and recover. I told myself that after this holiday is over I would hit the books hard and really put in the effort to studying the language until we leave for Thailand in three months.

We’ve lived here for a year and a half and we were finally able to our first pizza delivered to our house (Note- when I say pizza I am not talking about Papa John or even Pizza Hut pizza. The pizza here isn’t bad just not American style pizza. Most of the time it’s lacking on the sauce or has no sauce.) We ordered a pepperoni pizza, but they were temporally out of pepperoni and being a little scared of the other meat selections we stuck with cheese, which was extra. When our door bell rang 30 minutes later we were excited, only to find to our amusement the pizza delivery is also somewhat lacking.

Oh Well, it made it to our house, I made some pizza dipping sauce, and we ate it and were content.
