Aaahhh. I can breath now! I still feel like crying, but now it's from relief and joy instead of fear and anxiety! I was so worried about changing houses and then my old host mom was fairly beastly about the whole thing! She kicked me out this morning before nine AM! I had to wake up at seven just to pack and I barely made it! What a stressful morning! Back on the metro with all my suitcases, finding the house and how to get in! Complicated, but completed, difficult, but done. Thank you God!!!!I am on the whole other side of the city, away from all the magic of the center, but it is calmer here and the house and family seem infinatly improved from the last one:) The house is quite a bit bigger and my room is pretty nice, plus I like the feel of this place. They have a bunch of antiques and old pictures everywhere, it's fun:) They seem really nice too! It is a married couple who have three kids, but all are grown up and have moved out. The man is a retired engineer and the lady is a "buyer" whatever that is. They have students on a regular basis, but right now it is just me. I will be getting a room mate next weekend and until then I get the room to myself. I have a desk, drawers and a closet to hang stuff! There is a night stand and a bookshelf full of french novels and italy travel guides! I can't wait to try to read some of them, but I think I'll start with the childrens books from the bottom shelf:) I have got myself all moved in and am pretty well set up. I put up my pictures of me and my sister and of the three amigas on the night stand next to my bed by my new alarm clock(the old one died). I have my family on the dresser with the angels I got for Christmas in Sweden:) i even put up a poster from Sevilla that I bought for my father(oops was that supposed to be a surprise? I don't remember....well, Surpise!:) and some of my postcards from Spain. I am content and comfortable here and that is very good:) We will have dinner together tonight and the host mom is pretty intent on having me practice talking French, but not too pushy, just encouraging and helpful:) I think, no, I know that this is better for me. I am so glad I finaly changed houses! And there is wireless internet too!!! Icing on the cake:) Thank God for guiding me here. Thank God for watching over me and bringing me this far, continue to protect me and show me your purpose for me in everything and every moment of my day! Praise the lord! I'm at my new home and happy:) Thanks for all the prayers and support! Love, Mikahla
