  Hi Tanya, Thank you for your attention. Well, obstetrician or gynecoligist warned me about it when my pregnancy got something trouble. She suggested me to avoid the cats although later it didn't happen to me and my kids. We are not allergetic to cats or other animals. But then, we don't have own them at home as pets anymore. How about you? what kinds of your allergetic to ?
  Cheers....

  Hi, Nice to meet you too. Yes, I love animals, especially cat. I used to have several local cats, but since my obstetrician suggested to not have them,I gave them to my neighbor. Meanwhile at my school there are some kinds of animals, even cats.

  ALREADY UPON US
  
  Hi Tanya,
  
  Here are a few examples of this expression “already upon us” and their contextual meanings:
  
  “The US Senate election season is already upon us.”
  
  In this example:
  The legislative session is over, and most lawmakers are back in their districts, but the 2010 Senate election cycle will soon kick into full gear as candidates can begin to raise money in June 2009.
  
  Its like saying:
  How quickly time goes by…or
  It will be Christmas again before we know it!
  Procrastinators will be overhear in October saying Christmas is already upon us.
  
  It’s like saying that the event is catching us by surprise.
  
  Autumn is already upon us …as in the transition from summer to autumn is normally barely noticeable, particularly at the start of the season. One hot, wet day blends into another, and only the shorter days and the yellowing of the trees indicate a change is upon us.
  
  We are all very busy, we have hundreds of things on the go and before we know it tax time is once again upon us - already upon us.
  
  May is already upon us... WOW... time is flying!!
  
  You go shopping … its August and noooooooooooo, winter clothing is already in the stores – winter is already upon us!
  
  Like terrorism, this weapon knows no boundaries. It can strike anywhere, in any form - a heatwave in one place, a drought or a flood or a storm surge in another. Nor is this just a problem for the future. The 1990s were probably the warmest decade in the last 1,000 years, and 1998 the warmest year. Global warming is already upon us.
  
  Hope this helps?
  
  cheers
  Richard

  Hi Tanya, what is a good time for you?
  7am-12:00 noon EST = 2pm - 7 pm Kiev time
  If you choose a time in that range I will do my best to be there.
  
  Do you have your own website on line? What is your URL?

  Hi Tanya, sorry about the break in connection. We had a power outage that cause the disconnect - and I had to re-boot the system - ok now. It was nice talking with you. I hope you can find some use for the virtual classroom. Please share your ideas on possible collaboration.
  cheers
  Richard
