goodmorning soundtrack

i was listening to this song by anna, visit the link for a free download!


and arvo pärt is simply mesmerizing. soft and caressing to wake up with. (it might bring out sadness) this is not the full version though!

shabbes in the sun

i love bones. he makes me so happy, so often...

morning coffee in the sun

picnic on the beach

morning with eliyah

this morning eliyah invited us to her performance. with the elephant, the giraffe, the rabbit and the butterfly. later, we also performed for her. and then, she kept going crazy with the ball, which is her favorite activity of them all.

this girl is amazing. she used to have long, blond curls, but she asked her mother to shave it all of. i am still waiting for the moment i will have the guts to do that!

anyhow, even though i love kids, i must admit i enjoyed this link SO much. i had tears from laughter... check it out, on your own risk!

chocolate from jordan

sleepy dog, tucked in

yesterday we went to a listening circle. when a group of people sit down, with the intention to listen to eachother. everybody can say whatever he feels like saying, and sharing.(it doesn't turn into a discussion)
the 'rules' are to speak from your heart, to listen from your heart, and to always try to listen while you are speaking. that means, to be sensitive towards what the circle can actually recieve from you.

it was a beautiful, intimate experience. i can deeply recommend it to whoever wants to try it!

i am happy but i am sad

it came!!!

tell me when you come. i'll go out and meet you.

i am waiting for the rain. and for my neck to get better. and a few more things.

rise and shine

bloodpressure 100/60
pulse 64
weight 59 kg
length 178 cm
a prescription to make xrays

plus, the nurse offered me her son's telephone number.

does this mean i am healthy???

if we were living in the same town....

i would have......
cooked you a splendid sara meal. opened a bottle of red wine. played you your favorite songs. asked you to show me some of your photos. went through the bookshelves.
talked about anything between heaven and earth.

but since you are not,
i will just go to sleep.

nighty night mr. c

potassium, here i come!

this time, i'm preparing for the battle! which almost gives me motivation to deal with it.

so, i've read that dysmenorrhea can be relieved by eating loads of potassium (kalium in swedish). hence, for a few days now, i'm redmodeling my diet. the last three days, i had some kind of potatoe dish. (which anyhow, the winter makes me german, i long for mashed potatoes and stewed veggies)
i eat loads of bananas. and abricots. leavy greens will also do.

then, when hell breakes loose, i will chew fresh ginger, and massage a few acupressure points that might help.

anyhow, i believe i will manage better this month,
unless my neck is still as fucked as it is right now.
then,
painkillers, you will have to do the job!
i will cheat on my believe.

it ain't over until it is over

the weekend as it was. partially...
i overstretched/tore a muscle in the neck, which was one of the most painful experiences ive had in a long time. on top of that, i treated it all wrong to begin with. which made it worse. yesterday night, i finally gave into painkillers, due to lack of sleep. and hoping it would decrease the inflammation. which seems to have happened. holding my thumb!

noW....
question:
does maybe mean no???

colored reality

bright colored candies in a grey train station.

in this city, where i wouldn't wanna live, even if someone paid me to.

there was something really sad about it.

lollie pink

there was this story on the news in IL not long ago, about a boy who apparently got an inflammation in his tongue (and he had a piercing) and died.
so, for a few days, the woman working in our local minimarket and some other people tried to convince me to take it out.(not that i am very fond of it, it is just a memento from a long, long time ago)

now, my friend itzik, below, got his aunt to pay him 1000 shekels when he got rid of his!!! that boy sure knows how to make a buisness.



p.s lollies are my new chocolate? almost, im trying something out...

highlights

i got a sweet package from rainer, thank you!!!! and the flowerbeds in ga'aton where dreamlike yesterday.

obamarama!

so he won, didn't he???!!!!

november/go figure

there is a tiny bit of autumn feeling. even here. though today and yesterday the sun is shining, so warm.
i've upgraded my kitchen by putting four blocks under the legs of the table. all of a sudden i can cook without bending over, which was killing my lower back.
jihoo! and it all is a result of a dream!

like yeats said,
in dreams start responsibility...

as different as it gets

i don't know about you, but when i see those happy little lives on my silverbeet, i feel relieved! phu, if something so small and fragile survives munching on this....
GO ECO!!

goodmorning studio! (these days, we have air, light and sunshine entering our workspace)

goodevening studio! having a tea with yuko the choreographer!

and this is how it looks at night time. so cosy...when we bring our own lamps and burn candles. and do OUR stuff in there.

home, sweet, home

left over brownies. tastes like heaven.

i mind crumbles in the bed. still, i enjoy too much to read and eat at the same time. today i finished 'kafka on the shore'.

korean pumpkin candies, and organic dates.

yesterday i cleaned my house and started to prepare it for the cold season. carpets on the chilly floor. it feels very cosy here now. also, i made some yoghurt. always feel empowering to make it yourself!
today, im still in my pj's (for some reason, im only wearing red colors), ive been reading, eating, thinking and talking.

have an inspiring week!
