Moi the lioness

I just can't help but add another post today!! The reason? I am turning 38 tomorrow and this is really a big deal for me. 38 years old!! Can you imagine that? I can still remember when I was 24 and thinking of things that I wanted to accomplish in 6 years. Now, 14 years have gone by and here I am--trying to figure out what happened all these years. Well, let's see--came to Genève, left, then came back again. Put up a business...failed...financially challenged after that...now, slowly but will surely be back on my feet and not forgetting my lesson--choose wisely whom to trust. Oh! yes there was my wedding and I had a baby. Fast forward to August. When this month started, I have felt that something was wrong. Even my milk supply diminished. Tired most of the time. Angry for no apparent reason. I thought that I was having a depression. Then family and friends started asking me about how I wanted to celebrate my birthday. I refused to have one. All I want is to be quiet and reflect about my life. ; ) Was I having an existential dilemma? Was it the pill? Anyway, this drama just ended two days ago. I guess, this melancholic feeling got tired of camping into my being and just decided to leave and let me be. Well, it's about time right! Shame on them! Now here I am, ready to welcome the bounty that the universe has for me! Oops-will need a big basket for that.

Our mid-week get away in Dijon

Dijon, one of the cities in France, was the destination of our mid-week get away. The city,which is well known for its mustard,is a 3-hour train ride from Genève via Lausanne. As I've mentioned in my previous post ,this was my first time to visit the city. We arrived mid-day to a gloomy surrounding and headed to Quick, sort of Jollibee here. Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin...

Vacation over

It's kinda hard to get up early again after 2 weeks of staying up late.I've started taking the girls early to bed and of course, they're awake at around 6h30. My husband on the other hand has started working and I think he misses his late mornings. Now it's back to normal sched again. Now, I'm lazily doing my chores and still hoping that my mug of coffee will take effect soon. How do you get back to normal routine after weeks of vacation?

A Kulasa and being on (Swiss) time

I cannot remember being "that late" besides I am a Kulasa and being on the dot was instilled in me. Well, there were times that due to unforseen circumstances I would be 5-10 mins late but that was it. So it was during my first two years of living here that I have really learned the importance of Swiss time . That thanks to my Mama. My mother would leave me when I didn't arrive on time. I would be upset and could not fathom the idea of being left like that. So I've learned to be on the dot(again) every time I have to see her. The idea of being late and being left behind stresses me to the max esp. if it is Mama. Now that I have two gals an extra time allowance has to be given so as not to be late. Besides,the buses have their stop and schedule so there are no more excuses. All I have to do is just be on time!
