This week was a tough transition back after taking time off of work. I found out my French teacher Caroline accepted a job in France and will be leaving on Tuesday. I have some French homework to finish up before our last lesson tomorrow. Not only has she been a great teacher, she has become a friend and I will miss her! I was thrown a few other unexpected curve balls this I made it through with the help of friends and laughter. We had our first snow of the year in Chicago which brought about 5 inches this Saturday, it was a fun way to spend the weekend. How was everyoneā€™s week?
