Okay start with the good news - we came home from my teacher/friend Timur aka's house and the hot water is on.

The bad news - R left the bag with our wedding album in it in the backseat of the taxi we took home. Not an official taxi that would have a lost and found, the back of the car we flagged down because that is how you take taxis in Uzbekistan. I am so upset, I'm still crying and R has gone out for a walk. My aunt gave us the nice photo album with the dragon fly silk pattern on it that matched the purse I used during our wedding. My mom took a lot of time and put in picture and pasted our invitation on one cover and our vows on the other. Now it is gone. I can't possibly think of any way to get it back. I could put an add in a paper, but which one, and I REALLY don't feel comfortable publishing my phone number. I think I will call our neighbors Yulduz opa and family - maybe they will have a bright idea. I feel awful - just awful.

That sucks. That really does. I'm sorry to hear that.

I hope you are managing your anger at the situation and not completely letting loose on R. Having left so many thing behind myself, I know what it is like to be the one who leaves something wonderful.

yeah it's not anger only extreme sadness - I've told R that I'm not mad at him and that I don't want him to feel bad - but I'm not sure how to deal with how I'm feeling right now - That album was a combination of work of a lot of women who were very special to me, and I don't expect it to have the same meaning for R. Normally I guard those kinds of things very closely but I'm trying to give in to the culture and let the boys carry things more often. This is one thing I really shouldn't have let out of my grasp.

I realize that having R in my life is more valuable than pictures, I'm just really sad to have lost them.

I understand. I know (a little) how you feel. It sucks to lose a gift of so many people's work.
