When little matters
“I don’t understand what makes you feel so strong”. He was obviously referring to I have nothing to feel strong about. I don’t believe he knew at that point how right he was. One is strong, invincible when there is nothing to loose. Now of course there is a lot to loose, family, work, the [...]
Female cravings
Some days I can eat the most strangest of things. Like peanut butter… once I ate a whole lot of it at work, using a new spoon every time in order not to spread my bacteria to my colleagues. But as I came downstairs just walking into a conversation with a colleague I found myself [...]
Left to my own devices
The house is empty. Reinout left this evening. His Prada aftershave lingering for a few more moments, as to gently ease the void he’s left behind. Again I feel cheated on the promise we once made to eachother, never to go one night without going to bed and waking up together. But one night becomes [...]
Lost & Found
My wallet was found! Bless you M for finding it! I feel a whole lot better now, especially after a few shots of Baileys Caramel which Reinout made me drink in consecutive order…now time for Cold Case! Sx
One step forward, two steps back
Why is it that shit always happens at ones? Why do I feel like a fat pig, want to pull a sack over my head and pretend I’m not there? Alternatively commit hara-kiri and die an honourable death. PMS seems like a mild term to describing female neurosis compared to the monster that is raging [...]
Housewifey duties and work agenda
10.17 am I’m just ready to sit down and actually work and have my breakfast. This after having been up since 6.30 am. My agenda is pretty packed today (for being a housewife and mother anyways). 8.40 I had the consultation bureau for Sebastian (to check his development). Of course I was late and as [...]
The subject of tonight’s lecture is Rhythm
I’m going into a new phase in my dancing. After learning all the basic moves and turn patterns it’s time to get back to basics, and really master what it’s all about: The rhythm and the flow. I really want to improve and as the impatient person as I am, I try to grab every [...]
Weekend Newsflash
The day Sinterklaas makes his regal entrance through a well orchestrated city parade is the day the pre-Christmas period starts. At least for me, as I’m a Christmas fan and although I wouldn’t dream of going overboard in Christmas decorations, blinking lights and various yuletide bling bling (after all it has to be understated and [...]
Thank God it’s Monday!
Where did the weekend go? Sooner than I could say TGI Friday, it was once again Monday. I didn’t sleep much last night. A combination of Sebastian’s erratic sleeping habits and my own recurring insomnia makes falling a sleep cumbersome. I recall hearing the church bells at 3 am and thinking this was going to [...]
