3rd day - 5 things TODAY (till Christmas)


My list is not in order. I am typing and at the same time listening to Una Flor by Juanes. I discovered his song after watching Jane the Virgin. It's on Spotify and I have created a playlist for Spanish and Italian songs. A great way to stimulate the brain. Now back to my list.
  1. Walked barefoot in the garden. Experts called it grounding though as far as I can remember, everyone in Isla Berde was doing it when we were growing up. Here is a short film about it.
  2. Read 8 pages of my current book. I tend to be distracted by the other books I have. There's one on the nightstand and one in my backpack, ready to be read when I take public transport. Am I the only one?
  3. Baked a banana cake. Using a gluten-free flour. Nope, it was not good and I will try again.
  4. Phoned Mama. Talked about the weather, this and that. In my quest to heal and at the same time have a better relationship with her, I need to set boundaries yet understand her. Her life experience. Her story. It is a process but there's no more blaming, no more what-ifs. We are moving forward. And I always remind her that I am not only her daughter. I am also an  ADULT. 
  5. Hugged my prune tree. This is after watering it and then saying how grateful I am for the fruits. I did not dance, by the way, because it is planted on a slope. 
If you happen to pass by and read my  3rd day, do not hesitate to leave a comment. 
Now go out and hug a tree.

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...

I wonder...

How can I stop looking up the sky? With it's beauty that never ceases to amaze me.

Light in the sky

For a long time I am fascinated by the sky, but this has been fuelled up when I joined Sky Watch Friday . I am really thankful for this!
