Good intention to hard to change habits....

Back again after a week of silence. I think it was better that way - Friday was a good day though went to Zurich to meet with my coach. Yes she is helping me find a new job. I had to realize that I was not going to be able to find the motivation and the confidence to do it alone. She is great - we a such good match and we connected right away. So my cv is almost done and this week we have to talk about my values in order for me in a potential interview to find out if that company will be a good fit for me. I don't want to go from fire to fire (or what ever the quote is in English). After we had lunch and a good long talk at Starbucks - I went to Das Kunsthause - they had an exhibit with a photographer Edward Steichen taking picture in the 1920-30s for Vogue and Vanity Fair http://www.kunsthaus.ch/cgi-bin/kunsthaus?MT=main (forgot how to do a proper link). It was small but good. Afterward I took the train back to Geneva (almost 3 hours) I was happy that I had decided to take the 1 cl. ticket. Not to many people or noise on the way back. I did bring my knitting but I spend most of my time ready this book that Liz had lent me "the glass Castle" by Jeannette Walls. If you are looking for something - this is the book. Emotionally a hard read - at least for me but otherwise easy and very well written.
Last news of yesterday - my friend Sara because a PhD Dr yesterday. I went to her defense. She was cool - though I did think the jury grilled her quite a bit - or maybe it is just harder to listen in then to be the one answering. I for sure couldn't answer. Physic is not my thing - to abstract for my brain really to grasp it. But I did understand some of it - which I was proud of. Another news is that my friend ML is about to have her baby. The water brook yesterday but as first no contractions. I haven't heard from her since and it is almost 24 hours. I hope it is good news.....Have a nice day....
