SEAN IS NOT HERE YET BUT I WAS JUS WONDERING WHAT SOME OF YOU DID WITH THE S.O. WHEN HE/SHE FIRST CAME IM SURE ILL HAVE TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL RIGHT AWAY AND HE GONNA BE EXTREMELY BORED UNTIL I CAN GET A DAY OFF TO GET HIM SITUATED. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

[ELW 5]

I'm planning on keeping my guy busy with local adult ed classes, English as a Second Language (ESL) free courses and checking out local volenteer work! (Can arrange all of these in the evening after my work.) Also walking the neighboorhood in the evenings to see if any local shops want some part time help (planning to get the EAD at JFK POE)

Since I hope to be moving either just before or just after he gets here, he said that he would keep busy around the house, painting, doing yard stuff, etc. I think it would probably be a good idea for him to walk around the neighborhood and get to know the area.

When is Sean coming? I hope the transition is a relatively smooth one. Let us know what works!

ebony sean,

ESL is a good way to keep you SO busy. During the day I too will be working, so I still plan on being online as much as I could get away with here at work. Anything that could keep my fiancee busy like having a bike available, family to come visit when they can, satellite tv for watching programs from her country, online English courses which she currently studies... things like that go a long way. If you could have lunch one day during the week helps. It's going to be different for them, but truely well worth having them with us. If you could during this summer maybe take 2 fridays a month off to stretch the weekend. I'm sure you'll find the right combination of things to relieve your SO of boredom.

Best of luck!

He is an English speaker. But maybe other courses that are free or low cost might be a good idea.

So ESL classes are a good idea? I figured that since they are already English speakers, our fiances would not need or want ESL.

I think so. We already talked about it and he is ok w/it. It just depends on well he speaks. My husband is from "country" and they tend to say a few things that most ppl wouldn't understand.

My husband speaks great English. We are planning for him to join the roatary club. This club is a volunter club to help the commuinty out. He is also going to start GED classes at night. When I get home from work he can go to the night classes. He will also join a summer soccer league. Does your community have anything he can get involved in?
