Aimless browsing

Posted by: fracas on April 21 @ 9:52 pm

Reinout is watching football downstairs; I on the other hand is nice tucked up in bed. I’m not tired, yet I have no energy left for work. So I stare at the screen, mindlessly browsing the news in the hope that something will lift my mood. It’s been a good day…in places. After work I [...]

Cancelled holiday mitigated by Retail Therapy

Posted by: fracas on April 18 @ 11:41 pm

I figured that after some hectic weeks, followed by the anti-climax of a cancelled holiday, I could better treat myself to something good. When I’m on a mission, I’m on a MISSION, and in the course of a few hours I had bought items worthy of a new wardrobe. Classic high heel loafers from Tods, [...]

Posted by: fracas on April 18 @ 11:10 am

OK, so here I am, stranded in the Netherlands with no possibility to get to the the Canary Islands for the forseable future. After what seems an uphill battle on the personal and work related spheer, I was looking forward to a 2 week holiday in a 5 start hotel, secluded from everything related to [...]

Holiday is FINALLY booked…but are we going?

Posted by: fracas on April 15 @ 3:45 pm

And as I finally thought we were all set for a holiday on Gran Canaria, an Icelandic volcano decides to erupt. WTF!! How much bad luck can you have? I’ve been working on leaving this country for the past 2 weeks and when we finally book our holiday last night, it looks like it’s in [...]

Weekend blurb

Posted by: fracas on February 15 @ 10:16 am

Weekend didn’t really turn out as anticipated. It rarely does! Sebastian was not really well so we decided against going to MJ birthday’s party. Instead we spent the evening at home. I was so tired and fell asleep at 9 pm, only to wake up 12 hours later. Yesterday I didn’t do much else than [...]

New Year Resolutions

Posted by: fracas on January 8 @ 11:08 am

Exactly a week after the New Year made it’s entree, I am ready to make my New Year’s Resolutions. It’s not so much about resolutions but about goals. In many ways they are similar to last year. Having said that it doesn’t mean I achieved anything in the last year. If last year was about [...]

The arrival of Christmas

Posted by: fracas on December 18 @ 10:53 am

Sleep is a blessing. Because at 12.30 after dropping off the last emails I fell into a deep, deep sleep. Entirely different from the night before… Thursday 9 am in taxi on my way to Hoorn I never got to to sleep. As Jacques de Molay was burning on a stake on the Ile de [...]

Salsa, Salsa, Salsa…

Posted by: fracas on November 10 @ 5:53 pm

This day is infinitely better than yesterday. A lesson of salsa always helps, and a positive meeting too! Right now I am listening to some salsa music to get me in shape for tonight’s lesson at Club Fiera. Salsa has the power to make life look so damn positive. It doesn’t matter that it rains [...]
