Faust and Visas

You know about the visas, of course, and how we won’t mention who got the best purchase price. The only thing that matters is whether or not we are turned away when we try to enter customs in Ghana. I feel certain that there is someway to entice the officials so that everything suddenly becomes OK to enter. Maybe it would be fun to see what happens if we can’t enter the country. I’m not up for that much fun.

I know you love opera so I have to tell you Sunday was the first time I actually saw an opera with costumes and a set. It was great and I’m ready for more. It took awhile for me to recognize the Devil, and was a little gory before it was over but the final scene was nice.

Darren and Leslie did help me out with the updated Core Duo processor. It took Brett to tell me how to actually fix it so I can write again but I am now happy with the computer. I also have it loaded with games minus no terrible Sponge Bob so we are set for the grandsons to be entertained for the indoor winter seasons.

All the boys are doing fine in school and are learning to obey the teacher no matter what. They are all especially excited about Halloween though it is still a long way off in my mind. Miles wore his costume around for an entire afternoon already but he can only do that at my house as Halloween is banned until October 1st at his house. I’m so happy I will miss this holiday this year.

Diana says she has Brooks booked for next year. I see Leslie especially invited Willie though he probably will be in Afghanistan next May. I can’t imagine how long this must continue. She also reported that all was well with Betty, Brice, Mina and Bob. Ken and Mary Jane just left for Italy.

I got up in the middle of the night to check my layover time in Amsterdam. It is a pretty tight squeeze of 105 minutes. If I miss you there I will need to phone Esther for a later ride. See why I want to go on an escorted trip where everything is handled for me. Ugh!, it sounds better to stay home. I’m positively not taking an iphone.

Since you asked about Ocean I realize that you are not reading these posts. I explained about him in August and yet you are now asking who he is. I can’t imagine that you don’t remember these details.
