Rainy Day

Truly, this is the first day in almost 1 year that we have been "stuck" inside all day because of rain and cool temperatures. If we were in a more urban area it would have been fine - we could have gone to a movie or something - but, here in the Adirondacks while we are "boon docking" with no power it has been a long day. I cooked a roast in the oven just to warm the place up! We are only supposed to run the generator from 9-11am and from 4-7pm but since we have no neighbors we decided to chance it and have run it more this evening. We are such rebels!
We just talked with Heather on SKYPE. No news on their house - the lease is in Dresser Rand legal hell - but the apartment is nice. Heather has been driving Kyle to work so they can keep the car - no small endeavor because they drive on the left side of the road! They can't get a taxi to pick them up! They see 3 adults; 2 kids; car seats; a stroller and groceries and they drive on by! They have been to several different grocery "stores" trying to buy what they want - still haven't found the best for American type products. They went to Samantha's school today - the plan was to tour and then go back for class tomorrow but SK begged to stay and had a fun day. There is a program next Monday - the kids are doing a performance for their parents so they are all going to meet students, Moms & Dads. Kyle & Heather are going "used car" shopping on Saturday to get Heather her own car. The girls have had a crazy schedule this week trying to get their body clocks adjusted - everyone is hoping for a "normal" day tomorrow. So are we!
