The Schedule

So we have been given a schedule for completion of the terrace project. Looks like it's going to run into June. We can't walk on the terrace for the next week since they've laid some tar insultion stuff and then will put 5cm of concrete on top. Repair of the steps is the first week of May; new tiles will be sometime between May 26 and June 5; railing by June 8. Yesterday I came home from Bible Study and they were laying the awful smelling tar insultion material. The whole house smelled like tar... kindof like when they lay asphalt. Thankfully, the landlord has agreed to "compensate" us for the inconvenience. They allowed us to specify some home improvement that we would like done. We asked them to lay sod so that at least we'll have grass this year. They agreed and it should be installed by May 3rd. I'm thankful that our landlords have been quite agreeable and really want to make things right.

Also, we had our 2nd Czech lesson last night. I'm getting extremely overwhelmed at the process. At the end of our 1.5 hour lesson, my brain ached. It seems like an impossible mountain to climb.
