Back to School



I've been back at school for two weeks now, and things are still going well. The kids are getting used to me, and to being back to school, which is a nice way of saying that they are perhaps not always as sweet as I initially thought. But I still have no complaints. I'm also enjoying my half days on Wednesdays, it's nice to have a bit of a break in the middle of the week, and certainly makes the week move along more quickly.




We've been out for dinner twice this week, on Tuesday with Julia and Thomas and again last night with Anja, who managed to sneak out for a quick dinner break at 9:30pm before going back to work. It's two weeks before Paris Fashion Week, and that means non-stop work for Anja as her employer gets ready for the show. We had a great little meal in a cute restaurant on rue Cherche Midi in Montparnasse, not far from where we used to live (our old neighbourhood was so pretty!). The waiter was charming, and we realized that it had been a while since we had a good, unpretentious meal, with good service, and great company. We hadn't seen Anja since before we went to Russia, so we had lots of catching up to do.
