She wears high heels when she exercises (and when she grocery shops, and when she walks the dog, and when she cleans...) ain't that beautiful?
First things first, I am alive, Grandpa :) Life has just been a little hectic and I haven't really had the time, or I suppose I just haven't really made the time, to blog - but here I go, I shall try again (yes, shall, not will, shall). So many weeks have gone by that I have completely lost track - I suppose it has been 'almost two months' now, at least that is what I am going with and I am proud to say that within those two months I have started to drink beer (alright alright, it has to have raspberry juice in it, but believe me, it's a start). So much for my 'losing weight' in Poland idea, seeing as how all I do is eat perogies and drink beer there's a slim (to none) chance that will happen. Oh, wait, I'm active now - I'll just climb mountains and I will be fine. Speaking of, weather permitting, I will be 'mountain' climbing (sounds more daring) again this weekend. Emphasis on the weather permitting. This past week has been a nice mixture of rain, sleet, hail, and snow - in no particular order. I don't know why I always think that April is this amazing month, it really never is! No matter where I am, MI, PA or Poland, it just flat out sucks! On the brightside, we are halfway through the month - meaning, better weather is right around the corner? Made it to Wroclaw last weekend (pronounced VROTSWUAF) and it was fantastic. And it just so happened that the two days we were there were the only two sunny days in April! The city was good fun - not as great as Krakow, but it was still nice to be in a 'big city'. Trying to figure out all the last minute details for Vienna, which is happening over Easter weekend. It is rather hectic. The original thought was to rent a car and roadtrip there, which in theory is a great idea, but in practice, would most likely turn into a complete disaster. Thank goodness for air travel. Needless to say, I'm really looking forward to the trip. Not to mention, it will be nice to get out of Poland - I get to use the Euro again! And rumor has it Austrian boys are dreamy (and trust me, it's been two months, I could use some eye candy). There is talk of going to Copenhagen the weekend after, which, again, in theory sounds wonderful, but seeing as how the weekend after that I am going to Munich, I might have to pass the trip up. Which really is a shame, because if Austrian boys are dreamy then Denmarkians are drop dead gorgeous! Teaching is going alright. It's not typical teaching, we use a particular method, and sometimes classes are great, and sometimes they are so boring that I want to throw something. I try to always make things interesting, but sometimes there is only so much you can do. I now get to teach little kiddies though, and I really do enjoy that! There is one class in particular that I am absolutely in love with. So they're all teachers pets, who cares, they are so much fun. Justin Bieber is quite often belted in the classroom and actually last time I taught them one little boy put on Shakira's WAKA WAKA on his phone and we all did the dance (great fun, look up the video if you haven't seen it yet). So the Polock Kiddies are usually the highlights of my days. Supposed to be going to a 'football match' (I'm turning rather English/European now, AH!) this evening, but if it doesn't stop raining there is no way I am leaving the warmth of my bed. Oh, wait, I might get up for a beer...NA ZDROWIE!
