My Eye's Are Itchy

Bonne Annee!

It has been one of those busy but fulfilling days!  The fact that my day didn't start til 12:30pm is beside the point (church starts at 2pm again!  Lie-in Sundays are back!).  The itchy eyes are the only thing keeping me awake right now!  Once I wash my face and get in pj's my list of things I promised myself I would get done will be forgotten, as a climb onto my bed and fly to the land of bliss!

I just wanted to say hello!  Yes, I am still alive!  I only have a month and half as an Au Pair left in Switzerland!!!  The time has gone so quickly and yet I still find myself needing to find a few things to fill my last remaining days with.  However, for a week in February I'll be going to a ski resort with my host family.  I wont be skiing (that would require some actual skill in balancing), but I will be soaking up my last dose of snowy mountains while I still can!  It will be my last 'HURRAH' of living on the continent!

This evening I went to a CES fireside where I got the chance to see a couple of old friends (especially Carole, who happened to serve in the same mission as my cousin Becky) that I have made whilst living here.  Plus making some new ones too!  Think I may have been the only person there who's first language is English!  I didn't even have to try to speak in French because everyone is so good at English!  I should feel more ashamed at my lack my language skills....but I don't!

The itchy eyes are telling me to go to bed!  So for now I shall just say.....

.....Bon Nuit!!!!!
