Happy New Year

Thank You

Time is free

T I M E

is  

free, 

but it's priceless. 

You can't own it, 

but you can use it. 

You can't keep it, 

but you can spend it. 

Once

you've lost it

you can never 

get it back.

Last days of 2010

So many days behind
So many memories
When will I learn
to enjoy the present?

E. is growing so fast

He is almost a 

little "boy"

and I almost didn't realize

Home

I'm on holiday!

Feels so good after all this stressful period

 I enjoy lights and decorations at last.

 Unfortunately M. is working everyday day

E. and I wake up pretty early anyway

because E. is attending ski lessons everyday

and we have to be on the slopes 9,30

Just happy

I'm happy

So happy

No thoughts about
next year

or about tomorrow

Just  
enjoying
this day as
maybe

never 

before

May your day

This is my

 WISH 

for

 YOU

COMFORT
on difficult days,

SMILES
when sadness intrudes,

RAINBOWS

to follow the clouds,

LAUGHTER

 to kiss your lips,

SUNSETS
 to warm your heart,

HUGS
when spirits sag,

BEAUTY
for your eyes to see,

FRIENDSHIP
 to brighten your being,

FAITH
so that you can believe,

CONFIDENCE
for when you doubt,

COURAGE  
to know yourself,
PATIENCE 
to accept the truth,

&

 LOVE
to complete your life

Just

It's raining down in the valley

Snowing up in the mountains

There is just

P E A C E

in my heart today

and this is all I want

 today

nothing else

Darkness

Short and dark days

 Dark 

in the morning when I wake up

 Dark

 in the evening when I come home from work

I feel like I'm living in the

 Dark

Dear Santa

E. doesn't look so eager to write and send
his letter to Santa Claus
He did some attempts this month
but never finished both drawing or letter
He says Santa knows
what he wants for Xmas
So there is no need to write him
any letter

Present hunting

Yesterday

I went "downtown" to buy some  
Xmas presents

E. came with me

I tried to find out what he is whishing for Xmas

apart from Super Mario Bros and Nintendo DS

we really don´t want to buy

since he is really getting addicted to video games

and what he has got it´s enough!

In the end we got some other options:

a swatch, lego and race track

Hope we can decide what to buy for him

before Xmas Eve!

Otherwise .....

Auguri!

Some bacterias circulating again this morning!

E. had stomachache

so he stayed home with M.

Good starting for our weekend

 isn't it?

Only 9 days

I cannot believe it!

Just 9 days left.

How will I manage with all these presents still to buy?

Christmas feeling is creeping also in our home
Some light, some decoration
Xmas tree and crib are almost ready.

Some more peace and serenity
in my heart

A proud Mun

So proud of my kid!
Yesterday I had a meeting with E.'s teachers

They met all parents to talk about pupils' progression at school.
First time.

He is doing very well.
Good behaviour, attention and results.
Today
I'm just a proud Mum.

Only minus 18 .......

Polar temperature these days

This afternoon E. & M.

went up to 3300 metres

to ski

Both were off from school & work

An opportunity to ski and spend some time

together

despite of the cold, cold temperature.

Hot ice

 Help!

Snow is melting!

E. and I went skiing again on Wednesday

(It was Holiday)

E. started his skiing course in the local Ski Club.

Temperature raised so much

and snow started to melt

It looks like

end of April

Green grass, warm wind, no icy ground

really soft wet Spring snow

Where has Winter gone?

Soon

Time to open the box with

Christmas decorations

is getting nearer and nearer.

Time is running out

Few days left

So many things still to do

Decorations

Xmas presents

Letter to Santa

No Xmas feeling this year

Just one thought

S as Snow

Snow Snow Snow

Just some flakes. Almost every day.

No big amount.

No big deal

except the boring up and down

from the village to our house

on foot

since the road is too steep to drive.

 I wish

a  4WD car

for Christmas this year .....

to drive

up and down

Any Time of the Year 
(Same wish as last year)

OOH OOH OOH

Great opening

Opening of the skiing season

for me & E. last Saturday

E. has to find his balance yet

but I think it's just a matter of some more turns.

p.s. Pictures are from 2 years ago. So much snow

W as Wish

 Just one

 WISH

this Christmas

Nothing else.
