Mülheim Stadthalle

Monday. Monday. A long day in the office followed by several hours of document gathering and form completing for my daughter. We received word this morning that the International School *may* consider allowing her to enter the IB Diploma program this year, rather than next...but we must get her application filed by morning and have her in for placement testing this week. So suddenly we're scrambling. References are required, as well as copies of three years' of school reports, work samples, birth certificates, passport, health records, photos, etc etc. And this may be for naught, as there is no guarantee they will take her this Fall...in which case, we do it all again next Spring and she suffers through another academic year of German school :(

It was 9pm before I shut down my computer and went for a 5k run along the river. Just in time to capture some twilight scenes. It was a nice way to work out the stress. Now I'm exhausted and am collapsing to bed. Good night!
