It was fortunate that I decided to ride the shuttle from Albany Airport to JFK! The storm did come and while I did not appreciate the fall and slide off the runway our plane did, along with the 5 hour delay in taking off, I was grateful I had a 8 hour delay with my connecting flights to Jakarta so I could make it. Whew!!!! When I got in though on the 3rd, at 8:45 pm I was exhausted, as I could not sleep on the first plane and had only caught a catnap of 3 hours on and off while waiting to go to Jakarta.
I went to bed right after I arrived, on the 3rd, then got up the next day at 5:00 am to start my day. This was way to early so last night I tried to stay awake till 8:00 pm but only made it till 7:30 pm. I woke up, today, at 6:00 am so I am better.
So far the grandchildren have kept me busy, Sheena swam on her own with my encouragement, Johnny put his head under water, and the older boys enjoyed searching for the sonic ball I brought. I will be helping in classrooms of many of the grandchildren, have my own schedule book, and saw a Jakarta wedding ceremony enacted at their school, JIS, today. The heat is troubling me, a little, but I had no swelling of my hands, feet, or legs on this flight out as I requested a no salt diet, and I still am staying away from salt.
Today, I will be going to the mall to have lunch with some of the other mothers and their parents to meet them all. Yesterday we had breakfast with some of them. I have trouble with the computer as once in a while I hit the wrong key and it all changes to Japanese, then I have to reset it back to English. Good thing Miyoko and Chuck are patient with me as I do this. my Grandson, Charles, is also very adept at this to help me also.
I have SKYPED Charlie and Rita. I do not think my mother has SKYPE yet as I have not heard from her. I hope she will email me soon!!!
Love to all of you!
