Back to what we know

Life has certainly changed in the past six months. I'm not exactly where I imagined I'd be. I thought I'd be sipping Chinese tea in my modest 15th story apartment complex in Shanghai, taking art classes with expats, homeschooling my kids. Life though decided to have me rethink everything from top to bottom. I guess you could say that I am not even the same person I was six months ago (which in retrospect isn't necessarily a bad thing).

My biggest changes are in my professional life and in my diet. I work now which probably explains the lack of blog posts. I'm back in the working world and it feels good. And I have a new way of eating which just sort of evolved over the Spring and Summer. I'm gluten-free and dairy free and I'm eating about 75 percent raw. My diet is sort of my new hobby.

My kids are thriving in regular old public school and we live in France again. That's about it. I'll share some photos soon.

Wonderful to see an update from you! Jessie and I were wondering how you were the other day.
It all sounds intrigueing and I'm looking forward to hearing/seeing more, but for now it seems good and positive :-)

Sounds like the unexpected change in your plans was a positive one in disguise. A job for you and your kids are doing well in a public school. That's fantastic! I wish you the best and hope that you are able to post more often again. :))

I had a feeling from you previous post that you were still around in France, and hope that all is well in you corner of it.

Your last 2 posts are very mysterious and I'm intrigued ( ok nosey) to know more about it and hope that you're enjoying you new life style, whatever the reason that such BIG chnages have been made !

It seems like 2011 was the year for big changes.
