Under my skin

It's been a pretty good day... got sun, thunder, Pink Floyd's pigs on the wing, a BBQ and a few push-ups :)

Got our new goodies too!!! ... skins for our eeePC! We just couldn't resist such a lovely toy!

Here's mine:



and Martin's



That rocks, huh! :D

Tomorrow, I'll start working in the hobbit house, I'll take that as a break from being a nurse ;-)
Will share pics about the hard works!... and oh, about holiday pics... they're on Facebook, I'm too lazy to put them here too!

night night my friends :P

Little house on the (bretonish) prairie

Sure you recognize Charles, Caroline and Laura! :D

Temptation

Well, here in Bretonie... the biggest temptation is getting lazy... forgetting I have a house to renovate, sport to do, work to prepare & new wine to taste ;-)

The family house is so comfortable, the garden so big, the landscape so delightful.
Well I'm not resisting much temptation I reckon.

except this one..



after the party the other day, I found this cig in the bathroom. 8 years I have stopped, still fighting with success. I've asked that nobody touch the cig for a few days, just to test meself. lol. Very tempting.

What resisting bring me? Not any kind of happiness, just useful strength that I use in some approriate way I guess. Besides, resisting something that makes me that dependent is pretty satisfying :)

About lil wolf

He's doing well, I mean he does not suffer anymore at all, I think.
He's very patient, reasonable, that's crazy... he's so active and pushing the limits usually!

I spend most of my nights and days not far from him, he's very demanding of course... I wanna make his life as easy as possible, naturally.

This morning though... we went for new x-rays... and well, they did not show any improvement :(
The bones of the tibia are even a bit more separated. The doc here just asked if we were to see a surgeon just after the rendez-vous. I shrugged, said no, next appointment is back to Paris end of August.
He said it was still ok, the bones are still aligned and that's the most important. We'll make other x-rays with him in 2 weeks.

He repeated that Loup must not move at all his leg. Gawd I don't know what to do, I'm very careful about that and so is Loup. We can't do more.

I worry. I don't want to hear people telling "and what if you saw other doctors?", "why won't you ask for a new cast?", "have they made the right diagnostic?", "wouldn't an operation be more appropriate?"
No, that does not help me, just the opposite.

So far I've been in 2 places, with different doctors, telling me the bones of kids heal very well and that any operation is avoided as much as possible.

But what can I tell, what do I know really?

I worry, wondering how bad it's gonna be after 7 weeks of cast, patience, pain and stress.

Anyway, can't do much more right now. What a bloody bad kind of stress, there are no ways I can make it positive or forget it. booo

But :) ... Loup's cast is getting nice colours ... been signed by many people now, including a good friend of us, English rugby player (the real enemy yeah ;-) who has broken his foot a few weeks ago... and felt very concerned :)

Just a quickie

to prove I'm sober enough at this time of the night to blog a lil something :D

I had planned much more for my blog today but.. just lacked the time. I'll do better tomorrow, once we've finished with the visit to the hospital (which stresses me).

Like mom, like son (or vice versa!)

Dunno how it happened, at sport I think, during a push-ups session.
I can't use my wrist since I've arrived in Bretonie. It's a bit blue and painful. Nothing broken, I can still use my hand easily (phewww!)

Just a perfect way to start with the holidays, huh :P

Yeeheeeeeee (MJ's scream, my hand is possessed, so am I!)

Not very practical to take care of Loup. But I'm not alone here

Yeeeheeeeeee!

It hurts a bit, I'm tired from early driving, but Bretonie feels damn good! Cheers!



Friday, July 10, 2009

before the end of the night

...we'll be driving for wet Bretonie!

I hope the trip will be ok for Loup...
holidays (3 weeks!) won't taste the same with Loup's life being so limited to his wheelchair at the moment...
Not sure we can work as much as we wanted in the hobbit house... life's just a bit different at the moment.

But then, we'll be out of Paris, I won't have to carry Loup and his chair up and down... that is so good!

We've already rendez-vous next week in some hospital there, for new scans... I worry they give bad news like bones not joining each other... or whatever.

I'll give news anyway! I have my own mini PC now, which gets as much memory as my ol' one, with a mini mouse too! (and they say only men enjoy gadgets!!)

My plans during the holidays? Working (lol) on tattoo designs, having naps on the grass, finishing my fantastic book and starting another exciting one, doing regular workout because I need my fix, dancing on bagpipe & wearing my cute bikini as much as I can parce que je le vaux bien, merde! :P

Et voilà :)

I want to keep them all for meself :P

Dorian gave me last month one of his biz cards. Beautiful! On the front side there's a photo of one of his food creations. The quality was so good!

I thought it would be perfect for my new biz cards too.
So as he advised me, I went to order them there

.. and I received them a couple of days ago and they are so perfect! The colours, the quality.. wawww!





I've also been working night and days, or so (since I don't have any more nights!), on my paintings catalogue. I hope I can get it before I leave Paris for hols!

It's a fact

..Charlie's Angels have got a much more interesting influence in my life than Michael ever did!
(shrugging)

I was watching him performing on tv... looking for the answers to why he was so popular.
I put aside all the mystery around him... I think his music must have been the main part (never enjoyed it but) because for the rest... a dress code that was absolutely terrible, a *touch my cock*, robot like kind of choreography that seemed so much in opposition with his fragile look & voice. Strange. Weird. What was the message hidden behind his moon walk, hm? (boiling mind)

Nothing attractive in him to me. And the fact he's dead cannot change anything to that. Death seem to be kinda kewl for the popularity rating. But it's a bit extreme!

Anyway, (coughing), I could faint for a few (very alive) singers/musicians so I understand the fever!

But who cares at the end, apart from me, that is ;-)
Just wanted to speak of something else than my lil one :P

A new blog is born!

...a blog full of good vibes and laughs!

I wish Jerôme's Blog much success (and remember, Jérôme, see ya next year to run after the cheese! deal? deal! :P)

Can someone teach me..

.. how to stand the pain of one's baby... because I find it very hard. Almost humanly impossible.
I'm lucky Loup has *just* broken a leg, how do people do with relatives at hospital, with serious illness, etc?

One of his painful screams is enough to make me feel like 6 feet under. I feel so helpless.
He's fallen asleep 10 minutes ago, and already starts to cry, feeling the pain again. God, too bad you don't exist, I would have blamed you.

We've been to hospital for scan control.
The 2 parts of the tibia have moved a bit, not vertically really to stick together, rather a bit horizontally. Damn.

The doc there said he'll keep his cast another week (7 weeks in total), we'll take it off (crossing fingers and everything) on the 17th of August. Blessed day.
But it might happen that he needs another cast after...........!

Ha well, that's it for the news.

summerish candyland

At the moment, I'm 90% mama, 10% sarah connor.

I don't have time for anything, all my energy and attention are focused on who you know :)

The only thing I can still do is sport in the evening, when Martin's back from work.
That requires a lot of motivation, physical pain (yeah really), but it brings me what I need.
In some other life, I'll be professional at sports. Too bad I realise it now only, I'm just too old to start with all of it. No regrets, 20 years ago, I was the antithesis of sport! :P

Anyway, I'm a mama and I'm a sportswoman, but that's far from being enough to me.

I feel a bit like when I had just given birth to Loup. Life focused on my lil one.
Oh I do it without forcing meself at all.

but (and it's midnight, and he's crying, asking for me), I can't help counting the days till it gets better for him (so for me too ;-)

Am I selfish?
dunno
maybe, that's important to be this way too sometimes. Just to preserve oneself :)

Ok, I run to my roaring lil one!

A pirate leg, muscles, etc

A wheelchair, even for kids, is really heavy! A Loup with a cast too!
I wouldn't be able to do it several times a day, but it worked. And Loup loved it outside.



He's being very reasonable (which breaks my heart! lol... mamas!), not asking to go out of his chair, not asking for anything he can't do. He is so aware of his own condition!

And I start to feel more comfortable with everyday details (toilets, etc)... but it's still pretty difficult.

Days (and nights!) are really long, can't wait for life to be normal again.
On Tuesday we go back to the hospital for new scans. I'm impatient to know how his leg goes.
Then on Saturday, if everything is ok, we should leave for Bretonie... not with the excitement I got a few days ago, but it will be much better there. And there will be relatives there to help. I will have breaks! (and Loup too :P)

Oh, Loup got the visit from his teacher on Friday!
She came with her hands full of games from school so Loup can have some fun with his favorite games! She also brought the mascot "Arthur", a teddy bear, so Loup does not feel alone :)
So sweet!
Oh and all the kids, who worried a lot for Loup, made a drawings for him on the last day at school. Very nice!

Back in time

That was just a week ago... gotta mention it because we had such a good time at the Gay Pride!
The kids loved the "party" spirit of it, I loved the diversity of it, the positive vibes floating around.
Martin's moustache had muuuuuch success too :P

My babes might be young but not too young to understand difference. They naturally know it since they've started with school.
Life is not built according to some dusty narrow-minded Bible's plan!

Friday, July 03, 2009

Formula 1

Who needs a fast red car anyway??

After a couple of days running after a new form of grail (wheelchair for Loup), we found it!
From days on the bed he now can go in some other rooms (small choice, 3 rooms! lol)
...and it's nice.



I hope in a few days I can take him outside with it... but my problem is the 5 floors thingie... Loup is very heavy with his cast, I'm not sure I can carry him that much... hm, gotta try.

Oh my grandma yesterday advised me to use a bottle when Loup wants to pee, and why didn't I think of it?!!!
That is SO SO practical! Instead of carrying him in a most uncomfortable way 10 times to the toilets, he now just snap his fingers for his lil bottle. hehe

Grand-mothers should never leave us, they're so precious!

Paris Carnet

I'm a bit stoned this morning, not from what I drank yesterday (just what was necessary to survive Parisian heat, you can imagine!), but from a bad night.

I did not stay long at all yesterday at the bar, but enough to make me want to come back soon again.
I also had enough time to share good laughs with the girls and & few other blog writers. Some talks were surreal! Blog writers are curious creatures, very interesting ones, motivated by very different sources of inspiration!

I haven't talked with all the people there, I was kinda really dead, preoccupied, and in a hurry.. and I can hardly remember who was who, lol. Gotta train and learn :)

Bu that was a nice liDle break, and a very enjoyable first time :)

News from my little battlefield

lol I do NOT exaggerate!

only 2 days since Loup got his cast and ... none of us are used to it.
We're stuck in the flat so far, cooked like lil piggies on fire, but it's ok, could be worse!

How did all that happen? Loup was running on the playground at school, another one ran in the other way and put one of his legs in front of Loup who fell and that's it.

The school called me like 5 minutes before the end of morning school time on Monday. Which is weird, I was to be there anyway 5 minutes later: I knew instantly something bad happened.
Arrived there with super upset school staff surrounding Loup.
Loup was lying down, no expression in the eyes, white and cold as a zombie.
The firemen arrived 10 minutes later and we left for the hospital were we spent almost the rest of the day.





See the scans? What a clear cut! ... must be so painful! (just looking at the pics makes me feel almost sick, a mama feeling I guess!)

We went back with an ambulance, I was not able to carry my lil one! (and so scared to hurt him)



The most difficult is feeling Loup's pain, his screams, I had never heard them before from him. Screams of sharp sudden pain, and that happens a lot in the night.
I wish I could take all his pain away, you know ...

I hardly sleep since Sunday, I just can't stand knowing my lil babe feels this way..

But then in a few days it should get better.
When the pain is too deep, I give him codeine and that works pretty well. I haven't given him any today, is it a good sign? :)

So Loup keeps his plaster/cast at least till mid august, we must go back to hospital for control scans several times.
His foot must not touch the ground, not be in contact with water either. No bath for 6 weeks...woo..
We expect a wheelchair before the end of the week otherwise I really can't take him anywhere

And then everyday life is slightly more complicated: he can't move at all so needs me all the time of course.
Going to the toilets is incredibly complicated (so far)
Changing his clothes
Trying to wash him
etc

I have no idea how I'll do to close my flat door and open it with Loup in the arms (body on one, fragile leg on the other), etc... I know I'll adjust and get used, but... (sigh)

Once his cast is taken off, there will be no re-education of the leg (they don't do it for kids they said at the hospital) and Loup should limp (boiter) for about 3 months.

Voilà!
I'm down when it's the middle of the night and Loup is suffering otherwise I'm doing ok. Tonight I go for a beer with other blogwriters, that will be a fine tiny break :)

The picnic ... was spent at the hospital

Loup has badly broken his leg
gets a heavy plaster (plaster?) for 6 weeks

booo
I go back to him, will give news

When lil devils turn into clowns

All the end of the year's school parties are over!
No more cake to bake!
woohooooooooooooo!!
(dancing around, throwing petals in the name of kitchen freedom)

hehe, I'm kidding, they were really nice! And Lola's party on Friday evening was brilliant!
The theme was the "circus", and my lil clowns were so cute!

(wish I could add details but gotta run for a picnic! yeah I know summertime sucks :P hehehe)

Fée des bois

aka.. "Mara des Bois", the name of the strawberries I've got for breakfast today.

And, OMG, they were delicious!
I bought them in a supermarket at a very reasonable price, I don't know if they were "transgenic" "super-vitamined" kind of strawberries... but they were GOOD!

And this morning I felt I was sitting under a tree, with morning dew on my bare feet.
These strawberries were so tasty, juicy, reddish, tempting and satisfying!

One day

I wanna will feel the vibes of (the) New Orleans.

What vibes are you longing to feel?
What's the first dream you think about?

Could be an ice cream, could be Heaven to be real.

... Tell me:)

Emotional rescue

Yesterday... lola was playing with the lil rebel, Arthur.
After 5 minutes she came to me.

"Mom, I have to tell you something: I'm in love with Arthur. And for real!"

I raised a concerned eyebrow, smiled (inside), asked her if she was really sure...

She got a lovely smile then, and pink cheeks: "Yes mom I'm sure!"

Then she went to him, I kept reading but couldn't help hearing Lola telling "and you know Arthur, if you want I can kiss you on the mouth!"

She repeated it several times...Insisting a LOT (lol a few things will have to be taught in the next years!)

I finally turned to Arthur to tell him that girls are this way, nothing to stress about... lol... and he can just say stop it if he wants.

Anyway, 15 minutes later Lola ran to me, with wet eyes.

She said, trying to swallow her own tears "no mom I don't want to talk"
She looked at the floor, crying.

OMG !!!
I knew this look, I knew it! She'd just got her heart broken for the very first time!


Arthur joined, looked at her, asked her what happened... she fought to not cry in front of him.

I asked no question, I'm a mom, and mom are not so welcome when hearts are broken, I know! I remember!

Shit what do I do!??

I gave her some kleenex... told her she can tell me anything if she wants.

(I felt old, I felt like a mom then!)

Finally she let it go: mom I've just fallen on the floor and opened my upper lips oh mom I'm bleeding! BOOOOO


PHEWWWWWWW!!!!

Pleasure, little treasure

What's your perfume?
Wearing any?

I enjoy perfume. When you find the *right* one, there's a kind of lil miracle that happens... the skin + the appropriate perfume, I believe, can make a very sensuous little something.

I hate heavy perfumes. Chanel or Dior stuff is like poison for my skin (but I believe they can be just perfect on someone else).

I feel superficial, right now, writing this post. I think I'm just the opposite though, and precisely.. writing this post!

I found my Graal in Kenzo's Amour.

And just heard there's a new Amour!



Tommorow I will religiously try the new Amour. I wanna so much that it smells like something I've never smelled before. A new sensation. Hope, pleasure, future.

edit: well, no hope, no pleasure, no future: the perfume stinks! lol

3615 OMG

edit: just added the pics! :P

Yesterday I cut Lola's hair! a success, so pretty!




Then Loup insisted so much, that I accepted to cut his hair... big mistake! Dunno how to use this shaver! He suddenly had some kind of army haircut, terrible!




And then today, Martin decided he had to cut his hair. What did he do? He let Loup do the job...!!! The result?...well.... let's say it's beyong *army haircut* (yeah that is possible!)




Yeah I know you all wanna pics! hmm oh I'm a bit lazy you know... but ok, for 1 pic posted I ask for a beer (fair deal! and.. the more beers I get the best quality pics I put :D)

2 months, 60 days

that's how much the French kids get for summer vacation! You think it's not enough?
That's what I thought 20 years ago :P

10 days of school from now, and then.. the devils are free!

2 months, 60 days of... happy times, games, mornings in pyjamas, late evenings, picnics, the beach, water games... sun (yeah, well I've not yet considered the fact we'll spend 3 weeks in Bretonie!)



2 months, 60 days... during which mama Candy will LOVE relaxing time with her babes! It's just that... mama Candy usually works at home on school time!

So, that means it's gonna be hard to get time for work except in the evening and night... I won't make any sport (my drug! :P) except in the evening either... and no real time for anything else really.

A big change of rhythm for me and actually a bit more complicate to organise my days.

But then it's gonna be fine and fun! I'll be just way busier than I usually am!

"summer vacation"
...

Sunday, June 21, 2009

I gotta tell you...

...that I'm enjoying so much the book I've started!

Can't tell you why right now. I'm page 307, still 700 other pages to go... and, on one hand, I feel like wanting to read it very quickly to discover more... On the other hand, I feel like reading it religiously, with devotion, slowly, sucking every word of it to not let it go too quickly... you know?

It feels so good. So good.

sketches

I'm working for a friend right now, who asked for a precise wedding gift. Very interesting &unusual kind of work!

Counting the days

...6 months before enjoying that:



I can't wait! It's gonna be so fun!

I forgot

...to tell you how much this lunch with Dr Caso and the other bloggers was great!
Such a pleasure to spend this time all together again. I wish it could happen more often, really.

That makes me think... Mel' & Jenny, I might be in the mood to join you for the next Paris Carnet... what do you think, girls? :P

Ohhh and now I remember what I had forgotten really (winking @Mahie)... You know, my inner self is worse than a paparazzi: everytime I wander in Paris I meet a celebrity!

Well, then while I was on my way to join our Bloggers' restaurant... rue du Louvre... A grey porsche from les Yvelines stopped... and Eric came out of it, just passing in front of me, I could not miss him!

Don't tell me AGAIN that you don't know him!
(shrugging)
:P

But the real celebrities were those I was to meet at the restaurant :)

Wednesday, June 17, 2009

I want

the beach

the sand

the twilight

the beer

the magic :)

I think I can get the beer, good beginning!

Gimme the whip ! (aka the "shameful playlist")

When I drive, I *need* some kind of specific music. But not my favorite music.
I hate driving, maybe that's why I need *this kind of music*
hehe

I have this cd, that never leaves the car.
The kids love it, which is very important (worst than anything for me are children songs in the car!)

Am I ready to share this lil secret with you?

("It's not too late Candy, you can still change your mind")


ok, but... let's make it this way: only people who admit such kind of terrible secrets, are allowed to comment ;-) hehe

Ok, here's my driving' playlist! Don't laugh, don't say a word, I know that it IS shocking!


01 - Finger Eleven's Paralyzer

02 - Katty's I Kissed a Girl
03 - Katty's Hot N Cold
04 - Basshunter's All I Ever Wanted
05 - Estelle's American Boy
06 - Rihanna's Don't Stop The Music
07 - Pink's Get the Party Started
08 - Veronicas' Hook Me Up
09 - Pussycat Dolls' I Hate This Part
10 - Britbrit's Baby One More Time
11 - Christina Aguillera's Keeps Gettin' Better
12 - Nick Skitz' Listen to Your Heart
13 - Bob Sinclar's Rock This Party
14 - Pink's So What
15 - Britbrit's Toxic
16 - Kiss' I Was Made for Lovin' You

OUCH, yeah it hurts badly when out of appropriate background : me driving!

What about you? Do you get any dirty lil secrets, musically speaking?
Come on, don't leave me alone in *C'te honte Land* !

my little precious muse

Sometimes, Lola shows signs that she'll be a typical teenager in a few years.

Life would be so annoying with a perfect lil lady at home (which was precisely the theme of the poem she told me for Mother's day! ... "I could clean my bedroom, and smile all the time, I could help whenever I'm asked to, etc etc but life would be so boring with such a perfect daughter, I love you mom" ... lol!!!)

Well, except when the shrimpette is tired and then a bit on nerves, she's such a delicious angel! Curious, wanting to learn, to understand, always easily expressing her love, etc etc.
I'm so proud. Sorry I repeat myself pretty often about Lola ;-)

On Sunday, she had to perform for the big final show (classic dancing).
It was so great, can't believe I'm the mama of such a delicate & gracious little bird :)



Well, before she started with classic dance, I suggested her to try judo, or anything she wanted really. Avoiding to stick her to stereotyped girlie occupations.
But she wanted to be a pinkish dancing butterfly! So right, if she wants it that much, let's go for it!

Next year Lola (6 year old) will follow the courses for 9-13 year old lil dancing queens. I'm proud! lol I know I know... but gotta tell and repeat and sing and shout it! :)

Supa heroes

I love super heroes... and seems to be spending some time with this one, lately ...



He's a bit too ironish to make me dream really but super heroes are fascinating. Not because of their super powers, well a bit yes, but mainly for the weaknesses they usually all get. Which makes precisely all of us superheroes.

It's just that we're usually more aware of our weaknesses than our superpowers, and I do really believe it.

Devils'day

Only slept 5 hours, and for once feeling on top of the world despite the short night!

Is it sunny where you are?
It is, here in Paris. Warm, blue sky, perfect.

I have a lot of stuff to post in here, but lack the time to do it, so I'm typing the kind of absolutely uninteresting bloggie. hehe

My most exciting plans for today ?
...reading my book while the kids will play footie
...working the whole afternoon
...blogging tonight
...working again

See, I don't ask too much to be a happy bee

Wishing you a fine day with exciting plans

Introducing Sue, one of my girls :)

I'm sorry for those who get the same messages on Facebook and Jango for my paintings, they're just everywhere, but gotta advertise anyway possible, huh :P

So here is (again) the last one(s).


click here


For once, small format, not too much time on it, so not such a high price... BUT... lots of pleasure doing it, and sharing personal messages through it, as usual!

My lil moment of laugh 'n glory (surtout glory!)

I don't know... It's my blog, I can talk of myself, being proud of myself, be self-centered, etc, right? hehe

Well anyway, I will write how proud I've been yesterday during my body-pump session.
Our trainer, aka one of the "terminators", is very motivated to make of us other kinds of terminators.. lol

During one specific song we work on some specific muscles... and when we were about to start the shoulders exercises (push-ups / pompes), I was called by Terminator to show the others the exercise during the whole shoulder session.

Me, LOL
me who got the most horrible marks at sport when I was a kid!
Sorry, that is so big for me that I gotta type it!

And we have several ways (like 4 5) of making the push-ups, the easy, on the knees, to the hard one, like on the pic, but harder, with the hands on a bar with weights on the side. A bar that roll if you don't make your abs work at the same time. I use this hard way, because it's a challenge.
I'm not very good at it, but I can make it, and did it pretty well yesterday!

What a little moment of pleasure, of "I can tame my body and make it do what I want if I want it"
hehe
wunnerful feeling.


(réalisé avec un talentueux trucage)

Come on, tell me this pic of mine, above, makes ya trembling in your boots! :P

One of the most expected event of the year

...will happen tomorrow!

I don't know if it's confidential or not, so I won't give names... but tomorrow some of us around here and there will join one the blogsphere's queenettes to enjoy a fine fine lunch in our (now usual) restaurant.

It's gonna be fun! Most of us only see each other once a year for this special event and it's always been reaaaally cool. Can't wait! Will sleep enough to avoid telling my worst jokes tomorrow :)

Yeeepeeeee!!!
(dancing around)

Struggling

I'm usually a lil ball of energy (but that's true!)

But I woke up this morning and I knew it would be the kind of *now-you-gotta-pay-for-it day*, hehe... Maybe I did not sleep enough, 5 hours, no that's not enough for me. 6 is almost perfect for me.

Anyway, I hear right now Bjork telling me "how am I going to make it right?", lol.. good, I feel less alone, struggling today :)

Diamonds can't be the girls' best friends !

...when you see plastic can be so lovely!
take all the diamonds you want, let me have my plastic :)



So, let me see: Jesus turned water into wine..

...I bought a slim

and... my sister and I have voted for the same party (which got 2 votes at least! lol) on last Sunday's elections!

I know something good would come out of it, like a lil miracle!

Gweno and I have always had very opposite opinions when it comes to Politics!

hehe
That's nice, dunno why, but that's nice :)

(just gotta add that will never happen with our mom I fear -or I hope- dunno :P lol ... love ya mom! )

Monsieur Cracra

me: "Loup, time to take your bath..."
me: "Louuuuuup, your bath is hot and ready, and you will take it NOW!"

Loup: "but mom... you don't understand!!?

me: "huh???"

Loup: "Mom! I took my bath LAST YEAR! you don't remember or what???"





Slightly frustrating

I just fucked up with my last painting ...

lol no actually it's not a problem at all, the lil ( not a big project) painting was pretty ok.
(just *ok* is never ever enough!)

But it's not the message I wanted to share in it, realized it once it was done.

Now... got the right inspiration last night!
When it works this way (=suddenly inspiration comes to you, so obvious, so natural, that it's getting over exciting!)

wanna bits of the fucked up project? hehe, ok... The project's gone 6 feet under, only the puzzle bellow remains.

A new tool

My computer guru, aka Martin, helped me to add a new tool in my gallery... a zoom which appear when you click on a painting. Now you get *details* !

I find it very kewl! (self modesty not allowed when it comes to business :P)

you can try it ---> there :P

edit: will explain it on my gallery, but you can stretch the zoom tool, just clicking and sliding on it, which is also kewl :)

Mama's day

I got my poems, my lil presents (wonderful of course!), my cuddles and huge smiles. I'm so lucky with the lil devils!



(happy sigh)

Oh and on the mamas' day... we had the huge surprise to welcome another lil one in the family!!!
Well done to mama Scarlette and papa César, they've made the most adorable lil boy (yeah it's a male!)...I can't wait to share a piece of grass with him! :)

tapping foot, getting impatient...

..before getting the tickets for Rammstein!

...3 days to go! Yeeepeeeee!!! And won't go there alone, oh nenene!

Ich spreche kein Deutsch, aber I can still pretend I can sing! :P

Needs your lights

... who am I going to vote for tomorrow? (European elections here)

Can I ask you what you will vote (or is it too personal)? I'm so much close to not go there to vote, not because I'm not interested or lazy, but because honestly there's no one I wanna vote for.

Voting for the best of the worst ones? Does that sound like a good motivation? Maybe.
But then who's the best here?

So far I hesitate between Cannabis sans frontières, l'Union des Gens, le Parti Breton, la Terre sinon rien (aimeraient en autres remplacer le PIB par le Bohneur Intérieur Brut, huhu!) and Le Modem...

Why do I feel nothing will change even if we know we're the only ones (voters) that should have the power to make things change?

Desperate fan

ok, I have one week before getting my ticket to go to see them at the end of the year.

But I will not go to a concert just alone.. not fun!

Isn't there anyone enjoying Rammstein here? Er... (thinking)... (mind boiling)... Isn't there anyone who want to hear me screaming & singing in Deutsch? (well I suppose me singing in Deutsch might convince you to not come! lol)

hmm might go there alone
(shrugging!)
(but it's not fun!)
(I mean less :P)
(still fun because they're fun on stage!)

(I've already put all the videos on my blog, but in case that might convince any...hehe... I'll use one of my fav'!)

Today

while you're still trying to open your eyes (well, with the exception of Jérôme who will be snoring hard) I'm going to entertain kids at Loup's school "end-of-the-year-party". I will take care of the *candies* tree... kids will come and with a blindfold on the eyes will try to cut threads to get candies :)

after that.... I'll get a new *body attack* course. A bit of Caroline Ingalls, a bit of Sarah Connor, then a bit of meself at work too... pretty good to me! :)
