Sneek Peek at 2011 Season of "Where in the world is Becky Bowler?"

I believe the game of “Where in the world is Becky Bowler?” is going to take another spin but to what degree? Come on people! You know me, I’m all over the place. I once told a dear friend that I think I have a problem that I don’t feel like I fit anywhere but she turned it around on me and it made perfect sense…I fit everywhere. BUT fitting everywhere doesn’t mean I’m happy everywhere. Chicago is another stone on my path and I have sort of known and most recently strongly realized it isn’t a place I want to be much longer. The somewhat dangerous part is that my trip back to Germany reconfirmed my love for the place and now my mind is wandering and plotting a possible return. My first hope is still to get mine and Sari’s project up and running but it is the waiting stage and I don’t want to put my life on hold for something that would be just short of a marvel if it occurred. SO…..a new focus has somewhat spontaneously but easily started to bloom. After returning from Germany and having a concern about how hard it was for me to leave again and to come back to a place I couldn’t even really call home, I started brainstorming. If I could make money I would move back to Heidelberg in a heart beat so how could I do that. Well, when I was there last, I sort of discounted the idea of teaching English because you needed a certificate and it takes a couple months to get. BUT I forgot that I didn’t discount it because I didn’t want to do it, I discounted it because I didn’t have that kind of time. I needed a job IMMEDIATELY! So now, I have time and I looked into it. A piddley idea that started Wednesday morning turned into “me signed up for a class that starts on Monday” by the end of the night on Wednesday. I was pretty sad and a little depressed the first day and half of my return but there was a night and day shift in my energy and attitude the moment I made the decision. And it fell into place so easily. Again, I would still LOVE for my project with Sari to work out but if not, I am on the road to a possible return to Germany early next spring. Only God knows…….Which is it gonna be and where will the next episode of “Where in the world is Becky Bowler?” take us? Stay tuned!
