Today was a nice day. The Mom took the kid to school and all I had to do was let the cleaning guy in. My one little task was thwarted when he called and said he couldn't make it. With that, my day opened up. I did a little laundry and sat in my room with the window open. It was chilly, but sunny. The day went by quickly and before I knew it I had a house full of teenagers again. The 14 year old has basically the whole girls soccer team over on Fridays because the house is right next to the field. The entryway is impassable from all the shoes. Dinner was easy and the night was topped off by the arrival of the new family pets. 5 fish to go in the new fish tank they got for Christmas. They were all very excited. I on the other hand, was at a normal excitement level regarding fish.
I went out with the other au pairs, which was a nice break. We went out locally instead of in town which made it a mire manageable evening. I was home by 2:00, which is positively early by France standards. We were at a local Irish pub. I always end up at Irish pubs in France, but they tend to be the most in line with my kind of bar. I met a couple new girls and had a good time. I also was able to not spend a week's pay, which can happen in Paris. Nice little Friday.
