Welcome to the Old Folk's Home!

In anticipation for the big ICC announcement, school was called off today. While there were protests going on downtown, we stayed at home glued to Al-Jazeera and participating in a myriad of organized activities, including: Scrabble, baking, shisha smoking, arts and crafts and reading.

Pretty uneventful, from our end. Unfortunately, 13 different aid organizations have been kicked out of the country. Many of our students' parents work at aid organizations, so inevitably our school will be quite affected by this decision.

Tobe put himself in my "Go Bag"...just in case!

When did my blog become a family feud forum??

Eva said...

So wait... if most of your students leave what does that mean for you gals??????

Not all of our students are leaving...just a handful or two. It could have financial implications for next year.
