Total darkness.. I know what that is all about now.. In Germany most houses have rollandens, it's kind of a shutter that's on the outside of each window.. you opperate them from the inside of the window.. anyway the other night when we went to bed, Mason shut the rollandens and our bedroom door and it was so dark in our room that I couldn't tell if my eyes were open or closed.. It was really weird.. I've never seen darkness like that before.

Last night we had Steve over for a BBQ.. we had BBQ ribs, green bean caseral, and fried potatoes with onions.. it was all very good.. Steve brought over a fabulous chocolate cheese cake that was to die for.. There is lots of it left, I tried to get him to take some home which he refused, so if anyone wants to come over for a piece, come over...
While he was here he helped Mason hang the theater screen and a large oak curio cabinet on the wall.. . Nice to have such good friends.....

This morning I came to work with Maon. We have to go to another base during his lunch hour. We found out on Friday that we are in Germany illegally.. Well not really.. but kind of... We should of gotten a sofa stamp in our passports when we came into the country.. and you have to have them before you can work here...

When I went for my interview on Thursday, they asked to see my passport and looked for my sofa stamp.. well I didn't have one.. I asked Mason and he found out that he was to have one too.. So, today we are off to get this stamp in our passports... If one doesn't have one, you are only allowed to be in the country for 90 days and our 90 days is almost up.. It sounds worse then it is.. Mason has orders to be here so we think we would be fine... but I for sure can't work here without one.. Just another learning curve...

Yesterday we went out for another adventure.. but since I'm at the hospital right now without my pictures to add to my story, I'll have to wait to tell you about our day...

Start your day off right.. Eat something for breakfast when you all get up.....
