Yep, the boys have already left an hour & a half ago as I'm typing (09.00am) It's going to feel very weird not having them home with me. :( But I'm going to make a day for me today. Not only for me as I have (really) lots of things to do, but not for me. I had written SO many things to do today that I had to make 3 categories (ps : how mad am I ?) : for me / for anyone but me / computer related. For instance in the For Me list, you can find a facial mask, a body scrub, going to Starbucks, not cooking for lunch ... For instance i n the Anyone But Me list, you can find wrapping P's bday presents (done as I'm typing), adding seeds for the birds, looking for frames to frame some of my little ones' best artworks (really inspired by Amanda Soule's book here), starting working on brooches for my mom & MIL (that was their Mother's day gifts, a custom made brooch by me), sewing bean bags for the boys, making gifts for several friends' children, filling the olive oil bottle (my dad picks olives & brings them to a mill & then he has oil), and so on ... And for instance in the Computer Related list, you can find : saving the photos, saving the antivirus new version we bought yesterday, drawing printables, "cleaning" the desktop & make room for new things, listing some things on Etsy ... etc.
I'll probably double post today. In the meantime I'll leave you with a pic or two. First one shows the red gerberas I bought yesterday & that I put in a Swedish water bottle. (pretty blue, I love it !)

And the other pics show sparrows who came to eat seeds on my balcony. Believe me or not, two days ago, just in front of my kitchen French windows, I saw a mommy sparrow feeding (in the beak) her daughter (saw she was a female) who was just as big as her ! Quite a precious thing to see, I tell you ! Mommies !! (the photos won't show that)


"Talk" to you later today !! Have a great Friday !

Good morning Sonia, I love your gerbera photos. I took some of my gerberas yesterday but haven't shown them yet, mine are a beautiful peachy colour. I've had a good look at the boys' school pics now and I was so fascinated by them! Their classroom looks so open and bright. I liked the look of their work on planets, I bet P was really curious about that. I get the impression that they do things more creatively there and I would love to do the same but we have to fit in so much :( And going to the circus today, how wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely 'you' day :)
Hi Sonia!! Enjoy your "me" day!! That sounds wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteI loved your pictures!! ((BIG HUGS))!!
Hi Sonia! I can relate to what a luxury it is to get some free time for yourself. Little ones do occupy so much of your time. They're worth it, of course, but mom's deserve a break now and then. You always seem to make the most of it! Look- two Friday posts even! ;) Enjoy the weekend! (((Hugz)))
