Trees and park and preparations for celebrations away

I want a tree like this in my back­yard. They are absolutely won­der­ful for shade, climb­ing or tree rid­ing (sit­ting on those branches and bounc­ing on them). Its a lit­tle cor­ner of our favorite park lately. Just beau­ti­ful.
So, I am alive, if you have been won­der­ing. Not very bloggy chatty, but fine oth­er­wise. The weather […]

Coming close to 5 years — A Birth Story

For me this started on the two days before the actual birth at 10:40pm when I lost some of the plug. I know it usu­ally doesn’t mean much, but it has now proven to be a very good sign for me. A very good one for impend­ing labour indeed.

That night I was hav­ing some regular […]

More Saga — the avocado in the bag

Here is what hap­pens if you leave the gro­cery bags on the floor for a lit­tle bit longer. I saw him play­ing with the avo­cado, but thought to myself „its alright, he cant do too much dam­age with this firm fruit”.
I was wrong.

And some went in the […]

Interruption

I decided to show you how cute some­one can be eat­ing a piece of nec­tarine.
So I snapped him.

He saw me.
He did.
He felt my snapping self.

He got all curi­ous.
The fruit lowered down.

The eye­brows went up.
And there was no more eat­ing.
Never mind, I can show you how cute some­one can be just, being.
Ignore the black mark on his face, which was […]

Are you a real woman? Checklist here

Reading the paper the other day, I was reminded of how fucked up the image of a woman is in our soci­ety. The story is about a new plas­tic sek5 1 doll. Its in the World sec­tion of the paper and amongst sto­ries about Israel, migrant riots in Italy and pris­oner abuse in Iran.
