Hello!
Happy almost new years and belated xmas to everyone! Thanks for all the kind wishes from all who sent them along. Christmas in France was a bit bizarre, it being +20 outside and not being around the family, but we made the best of it anyhow. Nicole and I got to open 2 stockings each, care of some loving mothers back home, and we spent the day at our neighbours house.
There havn't been any new developments on the olive front, and I'm beginning to wonder if they will even be done before I leave! Aside from olive tending (which I don't do enough of), we have been having a lot of fun going on hikes, creating fantastic soups and pizzas, and meditating each morning. I've also been busy practicing hand stands, and making embarassing mistakes in french :
meant to say: I need to wash my hair
actually said: "I need to wash my ponies"
meant to say: Our house is a little messy right now
actually said: "Our house is a little satly right now"
There have also been a few mistakes that are a little less PG, the seemingly innocent words 'kiss' and 'excited' meaning far more than intended.
Tomorrow we're going to Uzes, a beautiful city about an hour from Congenies, to go skating and check out the sights. I hope everyone is well at home, sorry this post isn't terribly entertaining, I'm lacking inspiration. Hopefully the pictures make up for it!
Love!

Dearest Kyla (and my dearest Nicole, by proxy),
What an absolutely beautiful adventure you both are on. You're inspirational women, whether you know it or not.
The panoramic picture of Nicole is perfect.
All the best and lots of love,
Landon
Ha! It's okay, I have a few french mistakes of my own.
In my head: "But you've kissed me already!" (on the cheek, of course)
What came out: "But you've already fucked me!"
In my head:"The restroom is upstairs." (to a client at the restaurant)
What came out:"The restaurant is upstairs."
And I'm sure that there are hundreds and hundreds more that I am just not that aware of. C'est la vie! I do applaud your efforts at living in a french country though - you be brave, kj, you be brave.
i would call but i think you are in london now? so later this week peut-etre?
miss you like crazy, crazy lady!
