The new school year started off flat out. Learning all the new intricacies of a workplace is exhausting, takes a lot of time and energy to feel competent and not feel like you’re constantly behind. Term 1 included, but was not limited to:
- The Australian Open (tennis) and The Veronikas
- House swimming and house athletics (I am in the red house at this school)
- Valentine’s Day and the scavenger hunt we booked
- Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix
- Year 10 rock climbing camp
- Term 1 break and Easter.
Overall, this term has been a lot. It’s been busy, yet restful, new and yet familiar. I am appreciative for it all and I’m looking forward to not being the new person going back to work. My schedule changes a bit for term 2 which will take some getting used to, but hopefully life will feel a bit more settled.
Michael is starting his assistant coaching role with the Melbourne Mustangs as he explores the world of coaching semi-pro hockey.
We’re off to Singapore for a few days during the holidays and praying for good weather, great food and a memorable adventure.
We’ll be back in Winnipeg in October for a couple of weeks for Michael’s sister’s wedding, and are already looking forward to reconnecting with everyone.
I can’t wait to tell you all about Singapore and how life in the next while unfolds!
With love,
Alex & Michael
