  • Have you ever attended a meeting in one of those meeting rooms where there are no windows, too much chairs to seat too many people in a too little space, where the A/C doesn't seem to work and the temperature gets so high you think you're in the Sahara? I was in one of those for TWO and a half hours today. And I didn't realize it was THAT bad until halfway the meeting I went to the ladies room and while I sat on the potty, I enjoyed the fresh air.
  • Sometimes I choose what to read based on the bestseller list (shut up). My method is no guarantee for a great read and it proves I am not the majority reading population. I hate Life of Pie and I can't seem to get through Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. The first book annoys me and the second book makes me so nervous my heartbeats rises and my right eye twitches.
  • Speaking about books, Tim LOVES the books I get him from the library. He LOVES them so much, he tore a piece out of one so he could keep it. (NO honey, books are for READING) Normally the library makes you buy the book for the price of a new book. They sold me this one for 'only' 5 euros.
  • I have been cooking and baking a lot last weekend. My favorites: pumpkin muffins, pumpkin spicy burgers, potato cookies, gingerbread apple pie. The pie was GREAT. I got the recipe from Vegan with a vengeance. Which is a must have cookbook even if you eat meat and fish like us! FreezeM made a Morracan meal today from that book and it was GREAT! We are not vegan, but we like to experiment with new foods and recipes and want to limit the amount of meat we eat. The book really is great.
  • The weekend before our cyst - or other c - scare we went to the dunes and enjoyed the warm sun. While FreezeM and Tim played, I lay my big pregnant behind on a blanket eating candy. Seeing the men of my life play and enjoy themselves, one of those 'I can't be any happier' mood came over me. I snapped some shots of Tim that day, which I wanted to post sooner, but because of the cyst thing I never got around to look back on this gorgeous day. Here are my favorite photos:

• I got an 8 for this year’s final school exam (internal organization communication). I was really worried I screwed it, but it turned out just fine. I’m SO relieved. One year to go, and still on my way to graduate with honor! Yayyy! But now: SUMMER BREAK!
• Tim has dropped a feeding. Up until this weekend, he had 6 feedings a day. Now he does it with only 5. Since it takes me half an hour to feed him, I suddenly have more time. Can you imagine he used to have 8 feedings? Like up until he was 3 months? I spend (and enjoyed) 4 hours a day, feeding my precious little boy.
• Tomorrow we’re going to look at 3-bedroom ground floor apartment with a garden. It’s in a nice neighborhood, about a 15 minute walk from where we live now. However, it’s like the leas nicest street in the area. Oh well, can’t have it all when you’re looking to buy for a reasonable price.
• Italy won the world soccer cup, woohoo! Italy was my favorite, after The Netherlands. We watched a lot of the soccer games. I’m usually NOT a sports type. Don’t do it, don’t watch it. But the World Cup, I really enjoyed. And don’t start about that awful Dutch - Portugal game. *sighs*
