- Life at home is wonderful. We both work hard but we also know how to relax and enjoy each other's company. The level of drama is really low. However, our house could use some TLC in terms of decoration and gardening. We're finally biting the bullet and hiring someone to come in a few times a week to help with the upkeep. That way, we can focus on the pretty stuff.
- My yoga work keeps paying dividends much beyond the $$. I now have about 50 students in all of my classes and have been specializing on working with athletic types. I just launched a yoga website in spanish (www.vidalumi.com) and have plans to go into a partnership to open my own studio. That's scheduled for September.
- I still work at the univerisity teaching advanced business English. The semester is about to end and I think that I won't return. I found that the work is extensive, the pay is low and the students are less than motivated. Enough said.
- I have some private clients who get English communication coaching from me. I love that work although it's, perhaps, too flexible if you follow my drift? I've learned to live with so uncertainty and it's just fine! However, I'm in talks with a colleague from the university to start expanding together this executive communication coaching idea. There's a great market for it!
- And finally, the big thing this year is that I've been hired as the official translator for the 2011 Pan American Games. It's kind of a big deal and I'm really enjoying it. I'm meeting a lot of interesting people.
- So don't laugh but I'm actually thinking of hiring a personal assistant. Funny, right?
I've decided that I'm no good at Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, Twitter, IM and all that stuff. So, I rarely log in or I go stealth. Good old e-mail and blogging are great tools for keeping in touch.
I promise to follow up soon with my personal opinions of this crazy thing they call the Influenza health crisis. *sigh*
This is it for now. Keep in touch!
