Spring, Sheep, Chronicles and Workshops

March 20, 2012 By Marit 9 Comments

The sun is shining in the Netherlands, my Mojo is back, issue #1 of FEATURING is almost 'ready to be born', I have some free time, I mopped & polished the floors downstairs with wax, I just received the sweetest letter from my best friend and crocuses exult in the front yard. Now aren't that … [Read more...]

Pulling it back in

March 13, 2012 By Marit 14 Comments

I pulled and pulled... and *POP*... my Mojo slipped right back in! Not that I have much time to play with him, but I put him in the corner where the Muse was quietly weeping for the loss of her husband. She stopped crying immediately and send a tentative smile my way. I realize I have to take … [Read more...]

Good morning, good morning, GOOD MORNING it is! Aaah... hard work pays off! Yesterday evening (late) we managed to upload the FEATURING store on the website!

Inspired by the art I viewed on the exhibition in Amsterdam (see former post) I did a lot of doodling and writing with a simple ballpoint pen last weekend. I had the pen in my hands anyway, 'cause I started to listen back to the tape of the interview I had with a copyright lawyer last week  and … [Read more...]

Yessss, temperatures are rising and I still have that 'Spring feeling'. It's not very warm outside, but sun rays seemed to keep a promise and it makes me bubble with energy. I swept the floor, cleaned the bathroom and ran around waving the dust away... the house needs thorough cleaning, but I … [Read more...]

Happy Valentine's Day dear ones! ... And happy it is, 'cause temperatures rose above zero, the ice melted and our drain pipe is open! There's not much damage (one small crack in the pipe) and we will replace it for a wider pipe in Spring. I already loaded the washing machine twice and a big … [Read more...]

We experience yet another cold (very cold - for Dutchies) day! My beloved and I were having trouble with it all weekend. The drain pipe from the heating boiler and washing machine is but small, and the part that is outside is frozen. Not able to do the laundry isn't a problem (if necessary, I … [Read more...]
