French apartment renovations, Day 675: Exams, chaperones, and choir concerts

Zari had her 4-hour bac de francais ecrit this morning. She came home feeling good about it. She had to analyze a passage by by Denis Diderot from the Salon of 1767. He was a writer/art critic responding to a painting in the art exhibition in Paris called Salon (Hubert Robert's "Grande Galierie antique, eclairee du fond.")

Ivy had a big choir concert tonight. I couldn't go due to a meeting that had been scheduled a while back, but I was able to be a class chaperone to the rehearsal this afternoon. So I essentially got the whole concert anyway! Zari, Dio, Inga, and Eric's mom went to the concert. It's a late night for the younger girls and they may be grumpy tomorrow morning.


We gave the new table saw one final test--nothing. So it is now on its way back to Germany and we hope we get the replacement saw before we leave for the States. We measured and marked all of the wood we need cut, which we're going to bring to our local carpenter and hope he can do it for us. So frustrating to not have a working tool!
