Today was a little bit more relaxed and I’m very thankful for slowing a bit down this one day! After my oatmeal (here very special almost everyday with peanut butter – it is better here) Patrick took Piper, Celia and me to school.
My first period I spend with all other German students in the German class of Mr. Barnes where we continued working on the project we made for the sponsoring from Munich. It’s about Douglas Anderson and Sophie Scholl and Marla and I work together with 3 other DA students!
The second period Piper and I had dancing. It was really impressive how good they performered and how hard it also was for them because they jumped around! After that we watched a video about mental health especially mental ilnesses and how to deal/recognize them. It was really interesting and I think it is important to talk about such a topic in school! After lunch we had acting in the third period. There everybody had to practice their monologues and some students presented them to the class – again, it is so crazy how good some are and how they fit into their roles and how many emotions they gave their characters. In chemistry Piper had a new teacher and the students presented all something about „Moles“ and it was cool to see how everybody presented it diffrent and with which art they presented it! 🙂
After school Piper went straight to soccer. Because of early release she had 4 hours soccer practice today and Sarah, Celia and me picked Celias siblings up and her younger sister was so cute and talked a lot and it was nice to have a conversation with her 🙂 They came home with us and we talked and snacked a little.
Then I went for a long walk with the dogs – 6 mile walk to the nearest bridge over the St.Johns River and back. Masie and Moxie were so sweet and enjoyed the whole time as I did! It was so relaxing and calming to walk past the trees with the spanish moose, the nice neighborhoods, the parks and the big beautiful River 🙂
At home I showered and Piper came home – starving because she moved so much so we made dinner together and talked for a while 🙂
Now I will prepare all for tomorrow! I’m very happy that today was calming and I got regain energy and it is so nice to live in this family because it feels like one – not like as mine in Munich but as a diffrent family with diffrent characters – all so kind and wonderful ✨✨
