Hi Con!

It is sweet, that the children in Germany also celebrate Halloween.
The people that do the bad stuff on Halloween are mostly crazy teenagers or even adults. It is sad, that there always have to be people who have to do bad things for their own stupid pleasures. The world could be such a great place, if it weren't for the people with evil on their minds.

They do not have lockers in the school my 8 year old goes to, they do in the Highschool that my older one goes to, but they are very small lockers, I don't think it would fit much in it, they are not the kind of lockers they always show in movies. But anyway, the lockers wouldn't do them any good, since they have to bring their books home for homework everyday. That's why it would be better, since they go to school for 7 hours a day, to not even have homework.

It is sad too, that in Germany the people do not decorate for Christmas as they do here, it is just so pretty here at Christmas Season, I wrap the colored blinking lights around my porch (Veranda) every year and around my windows too. Inside I have everything done with the Christmas colors, like red, green, gold, white, silver, burgundy and so on. I hang the pictures my daughters drew on the walls, I have some from my oldest daughter, that she made in first grade (1. Klasse). I bought some little red bows last year and put them on my daughters white curtains, it looked cute.

Homedecorating is like where you pick out the colors of a room, like wallpaper and curtains to match and you also pick the furniture, it's like designing a room with your own ideas. I don't know if I explained that right, but that's basically what a homedecorator does.

I have to answer Martina's letter today too, I haven't wrote her back yet. It's been about a week since she wrote me.
We had a guineapig, that we have gotten as a baby, it was not bigger than a hamster when we got it, but it never got tame, it kept biting my little daughter, so we had to get rid of it. We do have a dog, a Shitzu (I don't know how to spell that, haha), it's my older daughter's dog, his name is Gizmo. He is so cute, he looks like an old man though, haha. We laugh about that dog everyday, he is just so cute and funny. He is like a baby, he is so attached to my older daughter, he follows her around, and everymorning when the schoolbus comes, he starts barking and when she's gone he whines and whimpers for a while, like a baby, he sounds like one too. If she's outside with him and she comes inside, he sits by the door, whining and whimpering. He's about 1 1/2 years old. She trimmed his fur during the summer a little, because his fur was getting so long, you couldn't tell the head from the tail, haha. Now you can see his face again. My husband doesn't like him though, he complains about the smell, even though we keep him outside. He used to have 3 huntingdogs that I had to take care of, so he don't have a reason to complain, he's outnumbered anyway, haha.
I'm sorry you are depressed, I know how you feel, I am sometimes too, especially in rainy weather. It makes me feel depressed, when it rains on the day my husband has to go to work, it's not that bad, when he leaves on a sunny day.

Ich muss jetzt auch Scluss machen, ich habe noch einige Hausarbeit zu erledigen, dann muss ich noch an Martina schreiben. Also mach's gut, viele Gruesse aus Mississippi.
Tschau,
Karin
