The time to say goodbye has come. The children finished their school year and it was very sad to know we won't see their teachers anymore. I'm specially fond of Clarita's school, the faculty, the campus the wonderful Montessori methodology.
It makes me sad that I won't see my closest friends often enough, it breaks my heart that my best friend here is moving to New York State with her family.
It makes me sad I'm leaving the trees, those gray/rainy days that make you appreciate the sun, the flowers, the blue sky, the clouds, spring and summer, and other things in life.
I'll miss PCC. Yes, PCC the supermarket. I could make excuses to drive there, get one apple, and then spend the rest of the time checking out everything else. I love that store.
Eli has cried three times already about missing his friends and I think positive and reassure him because I'm the mother and he needs me. I went through the same process when I was his age and I know it's hard; new school, new kids and try to make new friends. I think positive because we lived in Berkeley before and loved it, our friends are waiting for us and we're loved.
In the meantime, I've been very busy watching the World Cup. I've enjoyed every minute of it. Every four years you get to watch great fútbol (I refuse to use "soccer". What kind of word is that? It makes me think of "sucker", and I don't like that word either)
Since husband works from home we've been watching some games together. It's been a bonding experience, as well.
Ah, fútbol! the players running from one side to the other one, controlling the ball, trying to score, pass the ball, the goalie jumps trying to catch the ball, he misses... GOOOOOOOOLLLLLLL
And Chile goes back home. I cried. I'm sad. Las pasión del fútbol. VIVA CHILE!!
Packing? You love to ask that question. Well, the moving company is packing for us, which means I can comfortably sit on the couch and watch fútbol.
