A QUICK NOTE

Hello Everyone,
I just thought I´d post a quick note to let everone know I am fine and that this whole week I am working on my Spanish. My classes are in the afternoon and I do my studies in the morning. That is the schedule Monday through Thursday this week. I must say that the classes have been fabulous. In fact I have been having this strange experience where I get into a pattern of thinking in Spanish and when I need to think of a word in English, that I otherwise could think of with no effort, I can´t think of it. My abililty to undertand Spanish televison has also increased tremendously. If they are on a topic where I know the vocabulary I can follow just about everyting that is being said. That is a huge improvement.
The young lady who is my tutor has a sister who is living in Colorado Springs, working as a Nanny in order to improve her English. What a small world.
It has been raining and cold here all week. Standing in the pouring rain waiting for a taxi is just not a part of our life in Arizona. It is a routine part of life here.
I am looking forward to the Diocesan Convention here on Friday and Saturday. Following what goes on there will be a true test of my Spanish.
Well, that is about it for now. I just wanted to send a quick note, I need to ge back to finishing my homework for my class this afternoon.
Adios Amigos,
Glenn+
