Another fine day at school. I spent almost half of my day censoring text books (it's a weird feeling) and the rest trying to get ready for Sunday, when my students finally come in. We are still short 4 teachers due to visa problems, but 2 of them are coming in tonight. With the jet lag that they will experience, they probably won't have fun Sunday! Jacqui and I took over a week to get back to a somewhat normal life (appetite, sleeping) and it's still not perfect yet. There are still nights when we wake up at 2 or 3 in the morning - makes for a long day!
We didn't go shopping after school or didn't go out. We did laundry, so the maid can do the ironing on Friday! Jacqui went for a manicure/pedicure but it was on the second floor of the building. She was all excited as she only paid 9 KD (approximately $ 30). We also didn't cook dinner; we used Talabat. It's a web site that gives you access to a whole bunch of restaurants that will deliver food at your door (if they can find the place). You decide what kind of dish you want to eat (and they have everything you can think of), and a list of restaurants offering that kind of food comes up. You choose a restaurant, browse their menu, make your selection, and Voilà, dinner is served (in 30 - 60 minutes)! We talked to Jul and Nic later at night; it was nice.
