When does the Siesta start

I just discussed this with my co-worker Jolanda...

We agree that, since our climate is changing and winters in NL will never be like they were way back, we need to have Siesta like they do in Spain. Take the afternoon off till 3 PM and than come back and work some more...

It's so hot in our office right now. Outside it's some 8 degrees but inside it's boling hot. Something's wrong with our building. Last two weeks we were cold. Heating system was not functioning OK. Now it is working overtime. And the sun is pushing it's rays into our building...






We are in this building. Just above the second white piece on the right. All glass... That doesn't work for a building.

Oh, my siesta has just ended. Have to start working again... ;-p

Our little girl is 9 today!


Today is Romy's birthday. Hoera!!

Romy is 9 today and she's growing up sooo fast!
I don't feel like someone with a nine year old yet.
I used to think that someone of 35 was 'old', but that was when I was a kid. But now I am 35 and got a nine year old kid I don't feel old.

I guess male 35 year old's are somewhat less mature than women? Although Anita doesn't feel that old too! She's 33 now. We think it's great being parents (at least most of the time). Hectic but fun!

We started today waking up at 7 to sing for Romy (brought a big candle along to her room) and unpacking gifts. After breakfast we had to hurry to get dressed and de-ice the car because we had to be at the swimmingpool at 8 for Tessa's 2nd swimminglesson. After that rush to our citycentre to pick up a cake and rush back home because the first visitors where expected at 10 AM.

We just cleared out the first batch... This afternoon is the Simons' batch. My parents, grandma (Oma oma Simons because she is my grandma and my mother is Oma Simons for Romy and Tessa) and my brother and his girlfriend. Maybee there will be more but we don't know.

Tonight is the Van de Ven batch and some friends.

And now a pic of what Romy got from us...

High School Old skool?

I am currently downloading loads of Grace Jones, Vicious Pink, Siouxie and the Banchees and Tapps. Just to get that Canagal High Skool Feeling. We go back to the eighties!!!
Back to those days that music was still music. I will check to see if I found that special EP of Grace introducing her to the full extent!

Made possible with Edonkey

Damn that vase!

We had a small vase in our window with a stick of bamboo in it.
And damn that vase!! Last nite, 2:30 Am, it dropped to the floor and I was wide awake! I didn't fall asleep till 6 and woke up again at 7 when Romy came into the living room.

Just what I needed since I only sleep 6 or 7 hours a nite at most and am in need of more real sleeping time. I have some skinproblems (in Dutch Exceem) that I think get worse because of my lack of sleep. Strange spots on my lower legs that I have some cream for, dry skin on my hands and around my nails, skin that ruptures if I don't moisturise it regularly with another cream that I got from the skindoctor (Dermatologist?).
After my shower I have 3 different things to put on my skin. I thought that it's more like a girl thing to do that. I sometimes want to throw boiling hot water on my fingers so that the bad skin burns but I know that burnt skin is no option too...

A year and a half ago it was even worse. I couldn't stretch my hands, I couldn't fold them.
I only could keep then sort of half way both. If I streched or folded my skin would burst right open and blood and other fluids would spread from those wounds. Meeting people and shake hands became a problem. Now only using the mouse and typing with all 10 is a problem since I only have this problem at my right hand digitus secundus (index finger).

Oh, I bet I'll get over it before I become a woman...

Must sleep now ;-p

Thanks Sara...;-p

Thanks for your support in this matter... (last post before this one)

This is what my wednesdaynite looks like.
I get home from work,
eat,
put the dishes in the dishwasher,
relax for some 15 minutes watching some gossip magazine tv show,
go fetch my stuff and
ride my bike to the swimming pool,
change,
swim for 1 to 1,5 hour,
change again,
ride back home (9:30-9:45)
and find Anita getting ready for bed

So that's when I get to thinking that I didn't get to posting on Wednesday nite again...
