...goes for every one of us in this family. Told you yesterday about the irritations we've faced. The story went on even today as we purchased a new TV; we don't have a credit rating in this country (meaning they don't know if we pay our bills or not) which paralyzes our capability to sign up for things like telephone, TV-support etc. There's no logic in this, though, because monthly payments to the gym or even our rent for the house are working smoothly. Just another thing.
As for the kids - they start to show slight signs of tireness of not being able to communicate quite satisfying in English. Misunderstandings and irritation with the new friends in the neighborhood, frustration and restlessness. On the other hand, they get jealous if someone else steals the attention of their new friends here. That's when they start to miss their friends back home. Johanna writes letters and her diary. Jonte watches Bolibompa over the internet. And just spending so much time together as a family is a new experience for all of us. Not always just fun. We've had some deep talks about this lately, and everyone understands the situation, although it's hard to accept. Especially for the kids.
Maja is happy most of the time! We're trying to follow her example; just complain when we're hungry, tired or rotten. A pretty ok life philosophy, right?
