Communistic breakthrough

Now it happened. At last. Neighbor of ours visited us. For a first time... no other neighbor has done it. It's not because we are so mean or something, but because of this huge blockhouse where WE JUST HAVE TO LIVE together.

250-270 people living in a same house, without knowing each others name.

Now we know at least Klavdia. Russian woman, older than 60, having some golden teeth in mouth. We asked her to visit us. And she did! What a breakthrough in that communistic environment!

She brought gifts, but didn't eat much. In a same time, she really liked to talk. We also, but we didn't understand each other so much. But something still. "Rebjoonok" for example.

I got to know what health-problems you can have and how its possible to have 11 children. What an exciting evening it was! But most grateful I am for Greta and her gift of hospitality (yes, Holy Ghost can give even that!).

Conclusion: it is good to know your neighbors . Or what about you?
