Appart'City Lyon - La Part Dieu

... inspiration to write anything that to me, was worth saying. But more recently I have been inspired to share my most recent experiences.

Its December 6, 2009 and Jimmy is leaving in 9 days to come see me. I will be flying into Portugal shortly after his arrival to spend the Holidays and our 5 year anniversary with him. I can’t wait. At the end of this month it will have been four months I have been gone for California. I can’t even ...

... gelaterie. Lovely Lis could tell me what all the flavours I didn't know were, so that was handy!

After that we did some window shopping, visited a few other nice streets in Lyon and ate gorgeous little cakes at a posh chocolate shop. Yum! I had a rum soaked custard sponge tart topped with a raspberry and a square of devine chocolate gateaux topped with a chocolate coated almond. The lady bought over the whole silver platter filled with different tiny cakes and I selected ...

... the stereotypes that allow us to be a stay at home mom if we want and let out husbands do all the work and its not that we can marry an 80 year old millionaire and get all his money for being hot. I am glad to be a woman because we have the one thing that men can never ever have no matter how far science gets, and that is the first 9 months with your child.

I have felt myself and my priorities changing over the last year or so. Yes “booh ...

... small stuff like I used to. I think so much of my attitude in France this time around has to do with where I am in life as opposed to where I was before. And I don’t care who wants to argue with me, specifically my older friends who are still in college, but graduating college, at least for me, changes your outlook on life. I mean I cant even really describe the way that it has changed me, but in so many ways more than one I have grown from ...

... responsible for, but I am dealing with repercussions of things that have happened and are going on back at home. That is not easy. I am also still dealing with the family issues here, we have not had the "talk" yet but it is looming over my head. Things, I think, are going better in general. I am working on my “attitude” or whatever and trying to make changes in myself. I am waiting to ...

... here, but how am I supposed to say well Michel treats me like I am a slave and I can’t keep up with Julie because of your parenting choices. Um I can’t say that, that’s the problem. Long story short things kinda blow right now. Here there everywhere and I feel a little helpless about it.

Well see what happens in the next week or so. They have family coming to visit this weekend ...

... I realize when I hit my chin I also hit my knee on the way down and have a “bleu” or bruise covering my entire knee. I totally added to the collection.

Thinking I had suffered the worst of it I hobbled home to rest and take a shower. While walking from my room downstairs……well….lit tle lamby slipper slipped on the wooden stair and thew me (putting it lightly) down, yes down down down the entire steep flight of ...

Constant reminding can get a little annoying and I am getting a little sick of being told how to iron. I am perfectly capable of doing it and don't mind at all. But what I do hate is being corrected for making a faut. Is it because I cant take being wrong? No despite what you may think its because like my cousin Laken I am also a self punisher. My aunt Della told me about how Laken self punishes when she does something wrong. I didn’t quite understand until the other day ...

... and I deal with what comes my way, like it or not. But that didn’t mean I stilled wasn’t ****** about it. So we returned home had alovely lunch outside on the patio and I changed my mind about Rose wine (I like it now). I was tired and wanted to take a nap. So off to my bedroom I went feeling a well of emotions that cannot be described. I got to my room and lied down. Once I realized I wasn’t going to fall ...

ééééé bonsoir Het weekend is weeral voorbij en we hebben ons zeker niet verveeld. Gisteren, al pimpend, naar Marseille en vandaag voetbal gaan kijken in Lyon. We hadden om 14.30 afgesproken met Jean-Marc en zijn zoon Enzo (jaja genoemd naar Enzo Scifo) in Le Pouzin op de parking van Toyota om dan koers te zetten naar Lyon. We lieten JM rijden aangezien hij hier de weg kent. JM is trouwens zelf nog een goede voetballer ...
