Warsaw next! Warszawa następny!

Oh the past year has been a tough one. We went from excitement to disappointment  in regards to our upcoming move to South Africa. We are still dealing with some of it, but the long and the short of it is this: Our stuff went there 15 months ago, we never went. Our stuff is still there. (But hopefully not for much longer.)

But, when a door closes, a window is opened, and fast forward and we are moving to Warsaw! Tomorrow!

And now that our lives will have more security, it might be easier for me to write. I had no idea how to share the struggles we have been going through the past year in writing, especially in such an open space as the internet. I did not want to share things which would be inappropriate, but on the other hand I couldn't just chop that part of my life out - especially as for much of the past year it WAS my life - the struggles, frustration, anger, bitterness and loneliness took up most of my being and thought capacity. I am very happy to be able to put that behind me, and move on. Lessons have been learned and the wounds are healing. I am looking forward to learning new positive lessons and regain my belief in humankind and organizations. And learning Polish, really, really quickly so I can speak to people. For now I can say "I don't speak Polish," so wish me luck!

If you know Polish and are reading this - how was the title? (I love google translate, but I don't always trust their translations...)
