Hi, my name is Mustang the monkey. I am from a sea side town. My voyage and life missions are in honor of my mentors friend and co-worker that passed away on my birthday. The place that she works thought that it would be a good idea to take a trip and fulfill some of his life long dreams.
His name was Dougie. He was a nice and funny person. My lifes missions are his dreams. He wanted to visist Russia, Romania, Italy and where ever else he could. He loved his red mustang, and I would like to ride in one. Funny that is how I got my name from the love of his car. He also loved the New York Yankees and he never got to go to New York to see a game. I would love to see one in his honor. I would like to send a postcard from every where I visit so that everyone at work can see where I have been.
I am looking for hosts right now...I may have one that will take me to start my journy over seas. If you would like to host me so that I can do one of my life missions please contact my mentor, Kim.
If your need to send me home and don't know the address to send me, please let my mentor know.

I am on my way to Russia. I am so happy to be on my way so that I can start seeing the world and setting out to do my life missions.
I hope that there are alot of people out there that will help me along the way. I will miss my co-works and everyone that has come to see me while at work, but I must do this in memory of my friend Dougie.

This evening we had a barbeque. You see me with Kari, Precious, Mustang Monkey, MuMu and Brinda sitting next to the grill and with a Paulaner wheat beer.

It is Saturday before 1rst of Advent and we decided to start decorating the house. This is a Christmas Crib Scene for windows, which our host regularly sellotapes to the window of their dining room each year.

Maybe you know, that my host works as a teacher. Right now she is class teacher of 3rd graders. She loves her job and she loves her class. She always talks about her kids and she doesn't only mean her own children, but her pupils. A few days ago she went to a book shop in the inner city and stayed there for hours. We all wondered, why she didn't come back home again. Today she showed us, what she had done. She went there to search for books for the Advent Calendar for her pupils. She didn't buy the books from her own money, but recieved the money from their parents. But she bought the books and before she bought them, she thought and thought, which book would be good enough for which child. She and the female book seller really enjoyed it - that's what she said.
Take a look at all the books. There are 19 books for her 19 pupils.

The next day we had everything done, the packages were wrapped in Christmas papers and the pupils' names were in the little sacks. So our host could take the Advent calendar with her to the school. She told us, that she reads an Advent story each morning in the first school hour. At first they light the candles of the advent wreath. At last she asks one pupil to go to the Advent calendar and open the number for the day. The pupil, whose name was told there, gets up and draws out one of the packages out of the covered basket. The name on the package tells then, who will recieve it. This way three pupils have to do something each day.
