more catch ups from our move to charlotte

we would love to get some mail or cards or photogrpahs to brighten up our apartment! Today I had some MORE orientation and then we went to the social security office but I wasnt on the system so couldnt get my ss number. Hope it isnt too long of a wait! Then we went to drive past my school and managed to find our way home WITHOUT GETTING LOST! YAY!im much happier about driving now despite a WE'RE GOING ONTO THE FREEWAY! moment. If you have seen the movie clueless you will know what I mean! Or look it up on youtube!Then we went to our pool it is pretty peaceful and we saw our VIF neighbour teacher Livingstone 0 he lives above us.The apartment is generally good tho a few things we need fixed. the smaller jobs were taken care of quickly eg changing the aircon filter. We are hoping the bigger jobs - mainly some nasty rotten boarding on our bathroom sink - will get done soon. It seems a nice place to live tho. And it is very central to amenties like docs, shops, bank etc so i think we will like it. I now have til weds free then i have training - then a week in school to prepare, then the kids are in 25th August. Markey - who we are stating with has been a star - she is giving us or finding us plenty of furniture on monday which is great. Woukld love to hear how you are all doing.

Love katie (and Daniel)
