Y'a d'la joie !

The sun has finally decided to join us! Ok we're almost in June, but better late than never, don't you think? I can't wait for barbecues, picnics and bike rides. I can't wait for our Summer vacations and seeing my nieces. I can't wait for Ghent festivities and drinking something on the pubs' terrasse. I can't wait for dinner à deux on our balcony and long evening walks. Oh and birthdays... ...

Saturday getaway

Saturday, May 25, 2013 / BY tRiSh
Two weeks ago, in the spurge of a moment, Peter and I decided to go on a ride bike before doing the grocery shopping. What an adventure it was, we found a new lovely park (that we actually knew but never thought it was that huge) and met friendly sheep. Today we did the same thing because we really wanted to enjoy the good weather while it was lasted and met a family duck (they...

Just one day

Monday, May 20, 2013 / BY tRiSh
We finally got ourself a pet. We went to the market yesterday morning and I fell in love with a tiny little brown and white-spotted guinea pig. There were two different kinds but this one got all my attention. It was so sweet with its little spot on the head and it was friendly and calm. Maybe too calm for its own good: unfortunately, it wasn't well and passed away during the night. We only...

A Snail Tale by Ellen

Tuesday, May 14, 2013 / BY tRiSh
Lately I've been rushing through my thoughts and my chores and gone to work and back home and I haven't taken the time to just stop for a minute and enjoy the moment. I've been feeling like everything around me was a constant rush to do urgent stuff and that I needed to keep my mind busy to be sure not to fall into sad thoughts. I've just watched this video where Ellen talks about a snail...

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms and moms-to-be out there! Here is Belgium, we celebrate Mother's Day the same day as in the US. We went to Peter's parents and the weather was very very lovely. Since I had my swimming lesson during lunch time, we couldn't go to the restaurant with them but they brought some take-away and it was so delicious (eels + fries). Peter's mom was happy to see us and...

Let's have a baby | May 2013

Thursday, May 09, 2013 / BY tRiSh
I went to the gynecologist yesterday. Apparently, I'm being resistant to the Clomid. It happens when you have PCOS: my ovaries wall became harder and thicker and it means the follicles can't get out. We saw them, they're numerous, waiting patiently... I haven't had my period since early March. I'm not complaining, but it usually means that there's something wrong so it never reassures me when they don't come. She gave me something to first get my periods before...

Movie Wednesday: Mary & Martha

Wednesday, May 08, 2013 / BY tRiSh
On Monday, I watched this movie. The story is about a woman who loses her only child because of Malaria. She meets another mother who lost her child to it too. It's their battle against the first killer disease in the world. I couldn't stop crying for a little while. You feel so powerless and so deceived and I think it can only take some great courage to try and fight this f*cking disease. The...
