Mini update


Our landlord’s father came and fixed our washing machine. He had to pull apart the back but he found a coin that was blocking the hose where the water drains out! Thankfully it was an easy fix and now our clothes won’t rain on our neighbor’s below us.

I went and got fingerprinted for my residency card Tuesday. In one month I will have my card and I will be a legal resident of Spain! After wards we went to a kebab restaurant with a few girls from the program and enjoyed some yummy food.

Monday I went into my school and they still weren't quite ready because the bilingual coordinator had misunderstood what my position was. I am the first teacher from this program to be at this school and as I said before, information does not seem to be readily shared between departments so she wasn't exactly sure who I was when I showed up the first time in September. She thought I was an auxiliary, a language assistant, and so she had only scheduled me for 16 hours in the class when I actually need 23 hours. She is working on my schedule and hopefully I will start by the end of this week. I was able to meet most of the teachers I will be working with so that was fun. I go back in Wednesday to have the principal sign some paperwork and with any luck my schedule will be ready!
