so what exactly happened here??
poor alina...such a brave women!
the week I had to leave...the electricians the Archdiocese hired to redo all the electrical in our apartment came to begin their work. The apartment was barely livable for a week, and then livable, but a dusty catastrophe for the next several weeks.
here you can see what exactly that entailed!
 |
| die kapella...where we had already finished repainting the room....and which now we must completely redo. haha. |
Jeremy is a Parisian student in Vienna doing his Erasmus semester (a study abroad within Europe). Every Saturday for three weeks he spent the whole day at the apartment with Fr. Jacques and Alina and friends, sometimes just Fr. Jacques and Alina, sometimes just Alina and friends....either way, all that has been done thus far since the electricity was replaced couldn't have been done without him!!

| taking a break for lunch in the living-room-in-progress, with Fr. Jacques and two friends he brought with him |
 |
| glad to see the special paint we bought to stick to the walls really did its job....not. |
 |
| Philippine--a french artist now living in Vienna for over a year has become a dear friend of the community through, of course, our 'Mutti' Monika. Hopefully, Monika and Phillippine will be soon sharing the apartment two floors above us, but for now, she is helping us get the painting done! |
 |
| Phillipine, Jeremy, and Alina |
 |
| trying to find the right color |
 |
| can you tell Philippine is an artist? |
 |
| Alina as well! |
 |
| this is what Alina sent me to show me the finished living room walls... |
 |
| but this is what it actually looks like now. |
