This weekend I went to visit my friend Clare who lives just outside of Geneva in France. We had a fantastic time and went to Annecy where we picnicked by the lake, strolled through the old town, did a bit of shopping, had a glass of wine on a terrace on the side of the canal and rented kayaks on the lake. It was a great experience. I had no idea how much fun it would be to paddle around in a kayak. Now I'm excited to do it again!
My computer died, so the blog has seen a huge gap in posts. It only died a couple weeks ago, but having Joel here meant that I didn't have so much time by myself and so rather than blogging, I was out hiking and discovering different parts of Switzerland and talking about and planning our WEDDING! During the lunar eclipse in March, Joel proposed out of the blue and it was quite splendid and lovely.
Then everything started to change dramatically and quickly. It looked as if my school were to be sold. Then it turned out it wasn't going to be sold. But by that time, I was already in the mindframe of considering other options. Joel and I received a fantastic offer in Phoenix. He's doing the Montessori elementary training and then we'll both be teachers at the same AMI certified school. I really can't wait to work in a genuine Montessori program and finally begin doing the work I was trained to do. It's a lot of change, but I'm really excited.
