Living like a child

March 28, 2010

We have been getting rain the last few days. It doesn’t bother me because it isn’t the freezing cold rain of winter. It is a spring rain. :)

Le Soleil

March 26, 2010

Emmie Cat had been enjoying the beautiful sun for about a week. Emmie stretched and slept in the sun most of last week from her chair.  One of three that she claims as her own. Today, it rained and it snowed. I am sure that even Emmie is missing the sun and is ready for [...]

Stereotyping

March 19, 2010

Emmie giving me love eyes. She loves her Mama! I was thinking about how bitchy I have been since moving to Switzerland (in regard to my neighbors).  I think that perhaps…no surely…I could have handled all the situations in a better manner. However, I carried inside me all these stereotypes of what the Swiss were [...]

Spring is in the air

March 17, 2010

Even my cat can smell it! She is acting even more what I like to call “cat crazy” this week! She runs, bounces off furniture and meows…All the time. She is adorable. I opened up our windows to let in the fresh air like I do every single day at least twice a day. Emmie [...]

Being a big sister

March 15, 2010

M has been learning to read since she started first grade.  She is now able to sound out most words and this is her favorite game.   It is so cute.   I have fond memories of A (my oldest daughter) doing the same exact thing when she began to read. The other morning my [...]

Warmer

March 12, 2010

The very next day after my last post (complaining about the freezing weather here) the weather was warmer. It was almost normal. Today, it was still warmer. No wind. I am a happy girl.  :) In celebration of the lovely weather, we took a walk today up a little mountain road near our village. It [...]

Even the snow crunches

March 10, 2010

Now more than ever I remember why I HATED winter before moving to Switzerland!!! On my way home today from the grocery the wind whipped freezing cold air straight through my very being.  I had a flashback to when I lived in Ohio and would run to my car as fast as I could. I [...]

Onions made our cat cry

March 3, 2010

Emmie Cat loves to jump up on top of the kitchen cabinets to sleep, watch us or escape from the kids. She was up there today as I was preparing lunch. I was making spaghetti bolognese. Chopping up the onions made me cry. Those onions were strong! I glanced up at Emmie between my tears [...]
