just to update again, a bit

as you maybe heared, the hostel is now closed for renovations.
most of the staff left around the same time, some of the stayed for thanksgiving and left after that.
first (after closing the hostel) the staff and other workers, cleaned out the whole hostel for two days.
in the evenings we ate together at the willemsstraat.
for me this was a special time.
it reminded me about the renovation we had in '99.
The week after we had thanksgiving.
the lst weeks i've been doing some small fixing jobs at the hostel, while the construction workers redid the hostel upstairs and in the kitchen
(for pictures check my picasa web album)
besides that I've picked up my custiodiun job at crossroads again.
( i think this is my fifth time, i've picked up that job)
i still really like that job, and deep inside never left it.

my gardening job is still running ,but on low fire for a moment.
so far i was able to fill up my time at the hostel( what i prefer).
ian luyk( the former nightman at the jordan)and i are sharing now schinkelstraat 23a with antony northcutt( some of you might know him from last year), a former cleaner, and now friend. both of them are a good encouragement to me
antony stays in my room and ian has his room( formerly belonging to maarten, pauline and after then jaco van loenen)
first jaco moved out, and i was left with the whole place to my self.
(kind liked that idea). so i moved half of my mess in to the other room, so we where able to have a whole room for breakfast on saterday, and visitors to come over for dinner.
sounds good hey.
next thing i know is that ian moves in( i've invited him for months) and antony comes 2 days later.
now my idea was that i would have some time of to sort this all out, but things in the hostel didn't allow me to sort things out.
the funny situation happened, that my stuff filled up two rooms.
ians stuff filled up the walkways in the house, and antony's stuff was on top of that.
besides that we had breakfast on Saturday, i worked the weekends at crossroads, and weekdays at the shelter. so we had a mess at the schinkelstraat.
( not a new thing)
so on day ian and antony convinced me to at least clean up this mess before a new saturday breakfast.
so that Friday ian and i got started, for one hour.
that both of us desited," we NEED to go to ikea ( for dinner).
so thats what we did, we got some more junk, had a good ikea meal, went home and cleaned till one in the morning.
we love the baidgelers life

an other new love in my life is.....................
facebook.
i love it, and even check it.
you'll find me there, check it out

for the rest no winter sport for me this year, I'm trying to get out of debt ( with the help of some good friends of mine).
then still setting up the company, to support myself in missions, and keeping my self out of trouble financially .

life is good, really
