May 20

Vesela, ker je danes ze nedelja in smo preziveli teden. Od bolne Olive, ki dva dni mogla sploh jest zaradi virusnega vnetja v ustih, do zahtev sluzbe, do organiziranja garazne razprodaje. Prezivela in stvari so dokaj na svojih mestih. 

Garazna razprodaja je zahtevala veliko organiziranja in priprave. V cetrtek sva se z Andyjem selila iz prostora v prostor in pobrala vse od cesar sva se bila pripravljena locit. V petek sva cel dan organizirala in celo nekaj stvari ze prodala. V soboto se je prodaja zacela ze ob 6:30 zjutraj in nismo koncali do 15h. Prodali smo ogromno stvari po zelo nizkih cenah. Zadovoljna, da so sle v nove domove. Kar nam je ostalo sva pobasala v vrece in odpeljala na Rdeci Kriz. Zasluzek je bil odlicen za malo razprodajo in bo verjetno slo v namene obnovitvenih del na kopalnici. 

Sem tudi neznansko vesela, da mi je med razprodajo uspelo tudi ujet dogodke nasega dne. Se vedno zaljubljena v fotografijo. 

Zadnje case imam veliko izkusenj, da naletavam na ljudi, ki imajo povezavo z mojim domom, Slovenijo. Profesor iz sluzbe gre na obisk z zeno in bo ostal tam teden dni v oskrbi moje druzine. Profesorica, s katero jemljem predmet cez poletje je po mamini strani po rodu Slovenka. S pomocjo mame ji bova mogoce nasle Slovenske sorodnike. Ha! Zadnje case me zene domov. 

I am glad it is Sunday and we have survived the week. From sick Olive who could not eat for two days due to a viral infection in her mouth, to work demands and organizing a garage sale. We have survived and things are back to normal. 

Garage sale demanded lots of preparations and organizing. On Thursday Andy and I combed through every room in the house and took out everything we were willing to part with. On Friday we organized everything and even sold some stuff. On Saturday we started with sales at 6:30 am and did not finish until 3 pm. We sold lots of things for cheap. I am very pleased all things found a new home. Everything that we have left we packed up in trash bags and hauled to Salvation Army. The money we made will most likely be used for bathroom renovations. 

I am happy I was able to take pictures during a garage sale. I am still in love with photography and will treasure these pictures forever. 

Lately I am running into people that have connections to my home country, Slovenia. A professor from work is going to visit my family with his wife in a couple of weeks and stay with them. A professor I am taking a class with this summer is Slovene on her mother's side. My mom and I will hopefully help her find her Slovene relatives. Ha! Lately I am homesick.
