Ivy left this morning for a week-long trip in the mountains with her school class. It's called "classe verte" (green class). She's rooming with her 3 best friends; they even bought matching pajamas for the trip.
She called me this afternoon during the few minutes of phone time they get every day (from a friend's phone--she doesn't have one): "Hi mama, I wanted to let you know that I'm not dead and I'm having a great time. Okay, I have to go, bye!"
Now that Dio's and Inga's schools have had the "conseil de classe" and given out final grades, very few students keep attending. Dio is going just to his specialty classes plus French. It's a weird system because school doesn't get out until July but essentially learning ends at the end of May, since most students stop going to class as soon as grades are posted. Why don't they either do grades until the end or just actually end school earlier?
I was up early this morning so I went for a run rather than trying to get back to sleep.
Zari got called for the next round of interviews for a job with the municipal police. She's super excited. It would be full-time in July and August and much of it on bike. She's also going to be leading bike tours part-time starting in a few weeks. Not as ideal as having a full-time job right away...but she's making progress.
