A day at the beach

March 23, 2012 By Marit 28 Comments

It is around 69 Fahrenheit/20,5 Celsius today. No, I didn't spend a day at the beach, but I imagined one! I made a sunny page with a haiku for Haiku my Heart Friday. Een dag aan het strand weer thuis vind ik zandkorrels tussen mijn tenen a day at the beach back home I … [Read more...]

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...]

I pulled and pulled... and *POP*... my Mojo slipped right back in!

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...]

Spring (still) in the (h)air!

February 21, 2012 By Marit 14 Comments

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...]

Ready for Spring!

February 17, 2012 By Marit 36 Comments

I wish I could say 'Spring is in the air', but it isn't. Yes, temperatures are above zero and yes, our drain pipe is free of ice - but the days are grey and wet. HOWEVER... Spring is in my head and ON my head... *teehee* I have a new haircut! I'm all ready for Spring, don't you … [Read more...]
