Loving life is easy when you are abroad.....

Where noone knows you and you hold life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time........ Hannah Arendt

Ah Kuwait!

You slow me down
and I fall into the Ramadan time when life
becomes
just
a focus on
when do we eat but not for me
or when do we drink water

and I am waiting for the summer
when no more will I sit in
air conditioning
nor heat -hot heat

But before we get to that there is much more that happens...

Interesting presentation

Breakfast!

Gorgeous home group and Nancy , my student teacher

Did I tell you there is an ice skating rink here
we took the girls

The girls!

I value my ankles and all that little bits that depend on a bipedal motion
so
like a dear little old lady
they took me in a skating chair
perfect
I could not fall

Patient staff at the Ice Skating rink

I am in one piece

But summer is upon us and the heat grows stronger every day. Today it was 40. Summer is yet to really hit but when it does I think it will be more than a slap in the face.
I like to sit on the roof  and look across the city, in the evening, and after the heat is leaving. That said, the radiant heat from the mass of buildings surrounding us is huge so even though the breeze strokes me, it leaves my skin hot....
Life is good

Who got their fair share?????

End of year celebrations

Setting up my art stuff

Fierce Kuwaiti Young Woman

Royal weddings come and go
but the Kuwait one was different

and so I wait
for the summer break
but there are three weeks left
with exams and reports
and building   heat

Do I like it?
I love it

I will be teaching IB Biol and head the Science department
such things are dreams made of!!!!
Kinda
