This morning I threw in the trash (recyclable of course) (I have to tell you that I even make compost now), the two teenage schedules. They spent the school year there on this fridge (the leaves eh, not the teenagers)(although). What a year!
As I do not know where to start, I propose a chronological plan if you agree (and especially if you are still readers of this blog a little neglected in recent months). Listen, we're out of college there, I'm still formatted, my apologies.
Since my last passage here in writing, I specify because I often passed with ideas but not mature enough to pose them (or not quite good enough AH AH). Since November 2020 therefore, like all of you, I have been deprived "for the good national cause of public health coughed up" of restaurants, cinemas, museums, vacations too. So I played the ostrich. I worked even more, from home of course (which is to say that I can no longer see my apartment in paint as I spent hours on it). My new little company is going to be a year old this summer and is doing really well. I am sincerely happy, proud and fulfilled:I accompany really qualitative brands, passionate people; I work with awesome, expert freelancers who complement me so well. The mass of work is important but that's okay. I'm thinking about the start of the school year to expand and structure myself a little more. I have the summer to think about it.
And then, I "celebrated" my 45th birthday, confined, with my little family, a good cake and my beloved girlfriends for a few moments at the bottom of my building, with flowers and chocolates and a glass of champagne!
At the end of December, between Christmas and New Year's Day, we went as a family to Strasbourg for 3 nights, in a hotel, with the "curfew/no catering" formula, it was a bit gloomy but it made a difference. very crazy. Not to eat at 4 in a room on a micro table the Five Guys brought back at a run but the rest:the distance, finally, the walk to Mont Saint Odile under a thin layer of snow. No Christmas market but a city deserted by tourists, beautifully decorated, it was THE time to discover it.
And then, she “celebrated” her 16th birthday, confined, with her small family but above all her two Covid-positive parents. She really loved it…especially this negative PCR test for her, dated the day of her 16th birthday. It is a wonderful gift, to keep for the archives of his teenage life. Indeed, in mid-January, Man brought the Covid home. We said to ourselves, this is done. However, we stressed a little (yes, I always invent words), because hey, you never know... but luckily everything went well. On my side 48 hours of flu symptoms, I took 2 dolipranes. On the other hand, 15 days of enormous fatigue. We did not stop working but the children saw us go to bed at 7:30 p.m. sometimes! AH AH What we laughed at. If, in addition, we had a good laugh.
The year passed... spun... two small weekends in the green then, history. On the side of Lisieux in particular at the end of February, and without the 16 year old that we left alone for the first time at home for three nights. Finally alone, I'm not stupid eh, more seriously, we had warned:if you have a party, we will know and you will be locked up until you are 18 years old. So you can invite 1 girlfriend and we have to know who. Everything went well. In any case, we did not spot anything on the way back! AH AH So she's really serious and/or really super talented. And then recently on the side of Alençon. Each time, I found a comfortable cottage in the middle of nowhere. Everything we love.
Adolescence has become MY subject... by dint of struggling, undergoing, anticipating, reading, being coached... I have taken a LOT of hindsight. I also have a teenager who has matured on her side. In short, relations are still sometimes very tense but the school year has finally gone better. She passes without problem this time in the higher class and she validated the specialties she wanted. Math. Science Eco. History-Geo/in. Phew
On this subject, I participated on set, in a great show La Maison des Parents on France 4, I left a little testimony on this past and current period that is adolescence. If you want to see it, it's here (you'll tell me about it)
The 14-year-old (tomorrow!) has just passed his patent as a free candidate, he is entering high school (still in the same school) in September. He passed me an inch. He got a gaming computer for Christmas.
This year, although different, has once again gone by at lightning speed. I worked a lot, I also made a lot of progress personally, thanks to the help of an extraordinary psychologist and of course, because I was ready to move on to the next level. I feel good. Anchored. I continued the sport every week, at the rate of 2 big hours, including one of running. I have progressed, while I seek above all well-being and to clear my mind. Despite everything, this health context and these last few months have left their mark, I'm having a little trouble getting back to going out, making travel plans... we haven't planned anything for the moment, it's is the first time this has happened! Finally, it was the year of complete change on my side.
The next personal step is slowly taking shape:trying to give even more meaning to what I do. Align myself 100% with my values and succeed in living them. Always, accompany my little ones on the "right" path. Support them. So basically, I'm going to go over the specs, and start to put my nose in the twists and turns of Parcours Sup…
it promises!
