Coming up for air.

Just like these Portuguese fish the whole family is now coming up for air. After months of preparation, stress and occasional heavy-going atmosphere at home, Evelyne has passed the national exam that will enable her to lead a team and teach at the midwifery school. What a relief!
This means however, that she will have to take a training year some two hundred miles from home. I will be left with the kids and our two cats...
And if I happen to find a minute to myself in this coming hectic year, I guess I could start reading George Orwell's novel. Not sure if it features Portuguese fish though...
