I left as soon as possible from my first school feeling a little weird, so I went straight home to take a nap and eat lunch. I felt 10x better after my nap and went off for my last lesson of the day with a a class at my Tuesday school. It was almost hot while I sat waiting for the tram to arrive.... and we had another a gorgeous bright blue sky!
During my lesson, I told the kids they could ask me 5 questions about the US to start off, if they had any more questions (they asked a lot last time as it was my first time with them). One of the first questions someone asked was why I was wearing a pink shirt and white pants. They were convinced I was dressed for another holiday (lol- last time I was wearing green for St. Patrick's Day). Kids are too funny:)
We did my emotions/colors activity where they listen for color words, order them, and then order the emotion vocabulary that corresponds to the color I read in my story. I was glad that even though they don't really know their colors very well that it still worked out. If nothing else, it was a great introduction for them... and they got to hear about how I missed mac and cheese and my family (when asked, "What do you miss most?"). In reality, I don't miss mac and cheese anymore because I've stocked up from previous packages.... but that would be something I'd be missing a lot. I can't think of many other things I miss that much (I do enjoy French food too!). Except for maybe Mexican food.... and bacon. But those can wait.
Speaking of packages and things I miss- I went to the post office to retrieve what I thought would be something from the phone company, but it was a package from my friend Emily! Inside I found lots of Easter candy and a mix for cookie brownies!!! Hurray! I miss both of those! hehe... Actually she sent me a really funny/cute card that had my face in a picture of a dog that said, "Come Home Lindsay." Get it?
The only annoying thing about my nice Easter care package was that the plastic Easter eggs, that were full of candy, had been opened by someone at the post office. I'm sure they were making sure that there weren't drugs or something in them.... but all of my candy was either crushed or melty. (Don't worry, still tastes the same, I sampled it to make sure lol). I will hopefully make the cookie brownies this weekend with Kelsey who's coming to visit Friday and Saturday night. She thinks she's getting a visit to Lyon. What she's really getting is a visit to my apartment with the occasional trip to Lyon (haha jk, but if I'm not feeling too great, that may be the case....). At least I will have cookie brownies and wifi to entertain her with:) Let's hope I get some rest tonight and feel great with this beautiful weather! (But don't worry, if I'm stillll not up to speed, I'm going to go back to the doctor next week!)
Anyway- I got my letters sent out and should be all set with both closing my bank account and DSL line. I feel pretty good about how much I got done today.... but I have to go to bed now to get up and clean before my visitor gets here!
Reste cool:)
