Twenty-ten. Two thousand-ten. Whatever. I don’t know what’s up with me, but I’m not really in the mood to start a new year. Can’t we just slow down a little? Maybe take a nap instead?

As some of you may know, I spent a lot of time while we were in Kyiv working on starting my own business. Witty Designs is a line of handbags and accessories - both designed and constructed by myself. It has kept me busy over the past two years, but the biggest stumbling block in Kyiv was that I could not ship products anywhere. However, I was able to hold a few trunk shows during our last year in Kyiv. I am so grateful to members of the Embassy and expat community there who encouraged me with their ideas and, most importantly, bought my bags.
It’s been a weird holiday season for me so far. Between learning the Russian definition of “party” first-hand and seeing American consumerism at its best, I think I’ll just be glad when the holidays are over.
After experiencing the worst week of Russian classes ever, I managed to end the week on a high note. This afternoon’s report subject was “Moy Brat” (for my non-Russian speaking readers, that translates to “My Brother”).
So I know that I haven’t been a good blogger lately, but I have two really good reasons. I’ve been busy trying to find a part-time job and absolutely nothing exciting has been happening.
