APRIL 15: I know I said that I would post a blog an average of once a day, but … “the best laid plans of mice and men”. LOL It’s not that I haven’t had time to post, but circumstances have changed.
Maria is a wonderful woman but, like all of us, she has her problems. I find myself supporting her emotionally in many ways. With her being so nice to me, I cannot in all good conscious see myself doing otherwise.
Today I settled into the apartment she is letting me use. It is beautiful.
The problem that I am experiencing, and admitted to myself last night, is a feeling of dependency — something that I AM NOT accustomed to. But when you move into a new place, and everything is in a language that you don’t read or speak, it is a sense of being in another world — a world that you don’t know how to control. And, let’s face it, I control my world in Lee’s Summit.
TV controls and channels that I have found are all in Greek. Stovetop — Greek. Washing machine (for clothes) — in the apartment, but with dials that I don’t understand. LOL
If I were moving here (I have been led to know that I’m not), I would come prepared with everything I need to hire someone to show me how everything works. As it is, Maria has the “manana” mindset and I’m not comfortable asking too many times.
Know that none of this is complaining. I feel only gratitude. And Monday I leave on a guided tour of Delphi, Meteora, etc.
Love and hugs,
Sharon
... and So the Adventure Begins
