Lame

I am sooo lame. I feel all the time so tired, I do not get anything done. Really wonder if this is still the Barcelona effect? Or it might just be that I am getting older and am not used to such things anymore. Not to say that I ever liked it or ever was used to it. But certainly coped better with it. I hope I can take Friday off. It would be a good thingto have a slow day on my own.

Regarding creativity, I currently feel totally empty. Just to tired to start any project at home. Hope that will change tomorrow when the next round in Heidis BPS class is coming up and will give me hopefully some new creative assets. The only things I have done, is some more working on the birth announcements for my colleagues. – note I LOVE Photoshop, this programm is just soo cool and it is amazing what possibilities it offers – Think the cards look not too bad. I even could persuade one of my friends to pose for my camera. Looking so much forward to this photo challenge. Guess that will bring me also some further in my 2007 goal.

Rough weekend

This was a nasty weekend. In I mean it in every sense of it. First my husband and I helped my parentes buying a new pc. This was already a nerve wrecking thing. We both usually go in the shop, check what we want, compare a little bit and then buy it. But not my parents… especially my mom, she needs hours til she decided. After that I installed the new pc and this was nerving too. To restore all the settings, to set up the new things, to check if everything works and you know how computers are. They never work just like that. After the successful installation the next part was to explain my parents how to use it (just the same thing as before but they are so strange that they could make already some strange errors).

And the worst part of it was yesterday. My husband went out to work and I had a lazy day. When he came back he then was totally strange. He wanted to discuss about the godmother for our child (note, I am not pregnant neither do we have any child). He said he has someone in his office he would like to have for this. I said then that I do not think this is a good idea especially as I do not even know this person. He did not agree and started fighting about it. I do really still not see what the point is in that. I belive that the godmother (as well the godfather) should be a person we know very well and we both trust this person. A person we know will take the relationship to the kid serious and is willing to spend time with it (not only money as many people do). I really believe in this points and I think they are a must to take in consideration for any decision. Especially as I know myself how it is when you have a godmother and a godfather who have no close relationship with the parents. You only see them once or maybe twice a year ( I even did not see them that often…) and you have no chance to establish a relationship to this person on your own.

I believe that godmothers as well godfathers should have an important role in the kids life and should be seen as a confidant for them. I also talked about this before to other people and they all agreed (and one of them was my husband by that time…). So tell me what is the point in fighting about that? What makes no sense in my explanations? Which part is totally wrong and what is selfish when you want to have a caring person for your kid you KNOW you can trust?

Rushing days

It is already Thursday, how the hell happened that? I mean a blink away it was only Sunday and now the end of this week is already in sight. And I still feel so awfully tired from the past week. Hope this will fade soon. But as I will go to the Shakira concert tonight I don’t think that tomorrow I will be any better. Who knows maybe some boody shaking will change it.
Other than beeing tired is not much up. I am working currently on some baby announcements for some good friends of mine. Have to wait till I can share as they probably would not like me to share before the babies arrived. But the first will arrive soon so just be patient.

Heidi Swapp BPS class Layout – February

Wohoo, I finalised my class Layout for February… Had quite a hard one as I do not like to use too many pictures on a layout. So this was a real challenge to use this many photos. But in the end I like the result. Even tough I put not all the people I love in there… but most of them.

St. Valentine

I did not have time last week to post. But as this is such a cute story I would like to share it. Last Monday when I was already tired after weeks of stress before the event and especially after 9 days full of work without break I got such a cute surprise. I opened the door of my hotel room after 10 hours stand duty and running around regarding keys for apprtment and there they were. A wonderful bunch of flowers. I thought who is sending me flowerds to Barcelona??? Could it be my husband? And they were from him! He left me a wonderful message in which he told me how much he loves me and that he misses me. He also wrote that he sends me the flowers today and not on Valentines day that I can enjoy them longer. Isn’t that just supercute. It really makes me cry how much he cares and how much he misses me. If you read this please know I LOVE YOU SO MUCH and I do not know what I would do without you. You are wonderful!!!
