Nothing is better than a 5/10 minute phone call from your kids even if it is to tell you HI, I got 97% on a test, I did pretty good in practice, we had an awesome party last night, or just wanted to see how you are doing?It makes my day.
I had my first drawing/art class yesterday. It was very basic and thank goodness. We used 3 pencils and that was plenty. We drew a bowl and a leaf and did some shading. I was pretty good, glad I took the class. Johnny my driver was impressed... he is quickly becoming my BFF.
Yes, I have a driver. If you saw the driving over here you would understand. I am so lucky, he speaks great english and has shown me the ins and out of the city. He also got me the Lady Antebellum CD for the car one reason for my blog name. Driving at night over the bridge from Pudong into Puxi American Honey came on and I missed Nashville, my home, family, friends, and Yes, the tears came.
I guess it was having to leave what was comfortable and everything I knew. Leaving what was safe, easy and convenient. Yet, just outside my window was a city full of life; vibrant, and exciting. I just needed to be willing to embrace it. I hope to do that ... one day at a time.
I found that music really helps. I have it on my computer, i phone, and i pod. It can really adjust my spirit and attitude. I even find myself dancing on the treadmill every now and then.
