The good, the bad, and the ugly

Good Evening Everyone,

Well I almost did not post for today, but I am soooo bored I need to do something! That's why your comments are sooo important. I feel like I am on the moon here with little contact with Earth!

The Good: I got up and got to the orphanage earlier than I have all week, and I had a good visit with Toby Jr. I think he was not feeling good because he kept burping, spit up some, and was just cranky! They actually dressed him in boys clothes that match! I was shocked! I met this young man named Ameel that works at the orphanage, and he has a car. Future parents coming to Ulatchka, you should contact him when you are here and see if he can be a "driver" for you. He is not out to get rich, and he is a very good kid so far that does speak half way decent English. He charges me 2 grievna for every kilometer! That is way cheaper than our orignal driver, and he speaks English! I actually had him pick me up for supper tonight and he showed me around a little. It was good, and I am planning on next Sat to go with him and his girlfriend to the Sea with Toby Jr.
The Bad: I came home from my morning visit and did a couple things and layed down for a nap. This nap was 4 hours long and I missed my second visit! Ohhh man! I am very frustrated with myself. I think I really needed the sleep though. Now I am up and I should be going to bed, but cannot! ARGH! I am so bored, my internet connection is to slow to watch anything online, the movies I have are not appealing, and no one here is up so that I can even try to talk with them. Also, everyone at home I am sure is getting ready for the 4th and I probably won't get many comments because of it. Fireworks here are few and far between, and so far I have only seen the more expensive fountains, nothing small and fun to mess around with! I miss this time with you all!
The Ugly: Just my heart attitude right now. I feel just very sad and lonely right now. I will get over it, but I think missing my visit today compounded things. I hate messing up and it eats at me!

Here is what I had to eat for lunch today:

Just kidding there is no Chinese food here! :0)

I actually took this picture for my EmmaLee to see! I got to meet these guys on the way to the orphanage today.

Here is Toby Jr's, and Zhenya's lunch though:

Whomever Zhenyas parents are, I want you to know I do run my fingers through his hair and tell him mommy and daddy are on the way!

Ok, well I am going to watch some movie and hopefully fall asleep now! Only 3 days left till he is ours! Then hopefully a little more than week from there and I will be home with you guys!

Answers to comments:

Jodi, cool to hear thanks for the comment

Julia, Yeah 12 is definately old enough to endure this trip. He may have discomfort, but it will help him become a man!

James, that would be awesome, we are just up in Nebraska! I hope to run into Alec, but I have not so far. I hope I do get to meet you guys in person! I am fixing the shower tomorrow so it should be good for you if you decide to stay here. There are two other couches to sleep on.

Debby: What is so cool is we are from NH originally as well. We used to live in Nashua till we moved to Nebraska 6 years ago. I grew up in Massachusetts! We are New England natives!

Stephanie: This blog was for you, I really did not want to today, but I did not want to disappoint you and others that do read this. Thanks for your comment!

Monica: Thanks for clarifying. It may not be the season for you guys yet. God will have you both ready when it is.

The Ripps: Great to see someone else I know personally following along! Tell Chad I said Hi!

Thanks Cristina, Ukraine, Gaining, and all the others that commented. I thank you for your wisdom on his skin too! I think you maybe right. I had my laundry washed with Russina detergent once, and now I bought Tide. So we will see!

Have a good night everyone and I look forward to your comments!

Toby
