    My dear Ekaterina, I've been busy lately and I couldn't visit the blog as often as I like, so I don't know if I'll be here tomorrow. That's why I want to wish you now a safe and pleasant flight to Europe, a wonderful vacation, with nice weather and with great and funny moments beside your friends! Hope you'll let us know how are you from time to time! Or your baby sister will write us about you! :-)))
    Take care! I already miss you, my dear Ekaterina!

    Love, kisses and hugs!

    Wish you all a beautiful Sunday, wherever you are and whatever you do!
    Love you all!

  3. Trees
    By Joyce Kilmer


    I think that I shall never see

    A poem lovely as a tree.

    A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed

    Against the sweet earth's flowing breast,

    A tree that looks at God all day,

    And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

    A tree that may in summer wear

    A nest of robins in her hair;

    Upon whose bosom snow has lain

    Who intimately lives with rain.

    Poems are made by fools like me

    But only God can make a tree.

    Thanks for your nice words, Nicolettchen !
    I'm now packing. I received a e-mail from my friend in Berlin and I decided to put a cardigan in my suitcase, though I feel a bit strange about it, bc it has been " tropical " in Tokyo. ... :-)))

    looking forward to reading your comment when I'm back, Nicolettchen.
    I'm not sure if I can visit here tomorrow, bc I leave home at 05:30 in the morning on Tuesday, so I'll be busier tomorrow.

    Hope you have healthy days in August, bc the holiday waits for you !

  10. All is well with me. I've just been busy getting everything ready for school & the first ever Archer family reunion.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Oops I didn't mean to post that yet...my Dad distracted me.

    The reunion was yesterday & it was really great to see everybody. I haven't seen most of them since my Grandpa died. Which was 6 years ago. It's been that long because the Archers are loner types. LOL I'll have to post a picture of the oldest babies of the family. Aunt Helen is 93 & is the oldest living member on that side of the family.

    My dear AM, I think I'd like to say " Happy Birthday " to you in advance, and of course I know it's August 26th ! but I'm not here on your BD.
    I wish you have a beautiful BD with family & friends !

    I'm going to get ready for the bath and bed, bc I leave here early tomorrow morning.

    LOVE to Norway & LOVE to you, AM !

  14. Shoot, did I miss Ekaterina and Corinna? Hope they both have very good trips and fun times! I'll send them prayers...

    @Mel Family reunions are such fun. How was the food? We always vote for favorite dessert and the winner gets a silver dollar. I have a cream peach pie that is always a winner!

    @Nicoletta I did some retail therapy on Friday. I bought some new tops because I thought I might be going to France with my dear husband. The trip isn't going to work out for me, but he's still going, and I'm keeping the tops. haha!

    @Dana My dear Sis! I haven't forgotten about you. Have you been riding bikes after work? Good for you. I'm sure it's good exercise in lovely weather and if you ride bikes with a friend even better! I'll be back soon...

    I have a job interview today. Wish me luck. I really think it will be fine either way. I have been trying to squeeze the most out of the last days of summer.

    Rest well and have a pleasant and safe flight to Europe! Wish you an amazing vacation! Take care!

    @Nicoletta
    My eye is very well now, thanks! Hope you feel good! When do you leave? On 19th of August?

    @Giffy
    I keep my fingers crosses for you, my dear Sis! I'm looking forward the new chapter of the novel! LOL
    Yes, I go biking after work at least once a week, I feel great! I love biking!
    Since I've started to take pills for my thyroid and those for panic attack I lost 5kg! And I'm very happy for this! I guess biking helps too!:) It's true that I drink so much water every day bc is very hot here (or is very hot for me)! LOL
    I have this day off, it's national holiday for St. Mary.:))

    Wish you all a wonderful week! Enjoy the beautiful weather!
    Love, kisses and hugs!

  17. @Mel

    Glad to hear you are real fine, Mel!

    Familiy reunions are great!

    @Giffy

    Weldone with your tops!

    It's a pitty, that you cannot join your husband to France. Next time, Giffy, I keep my fingers crossed for you.

    @Dana

    Good to now, you are such a sporty woman, Dana!

    At the moment, I feel quite good. No coughing, only my voice is not yet a 100 % ok, I am working on it!

    We leave on the 19th of September!

    @All

    Do you need some inspiration for exercises?
