me and my dew
Friday, 3 October 2008
a few of my favorite things
- sleeping in my own bed and knowing the alarm isn't going to go off and I can sleep for as long as I like
- curing up on the sofa with friends to watch a movie
- hanging out at the beach hut with everyone in the evening, playing silly games
- a child learning something you have taught them
- a small child falling asleep in your arms
- cheering a child up when they are upset
- playing sims 2 on my computer
- surfing the internet
- chatting to friends on the phone who live all over the world
- walking through the Bouffard's front door to be greeted by the family when I haven't seen them in a long time
- strolling through big cities like London or New york
- being in the English countryside walking my dogs or camping
- the smell of the grass after it has rained
- eating a big bowl of crisps (potato chips)
- Chinese take away
- mountain dew
- thick vanilla milkshake
- looking back at photos of the good times in my childhood
- hugs from the people I love
- dancing and singing at a concert and just not caring what people think

NYC day two
When Beth was home from work we headed out to the city with her friend Jess to go to the MOMA (Museum of Modern Art). On the way there we found out that it shuts at 5.30 and it was already 4pm !! We descided to check it out anyway and unbelievably it stays open till 8.30 on thursdays !!! We had a great time checking out all the diffrent pictures and exebitions. There was even a Dali one organised by the Tate Modern in London !
NYC day one
The elevator ride was really cool and you could see the shaft above you as it was glass, I wasn't quick enough to get my camara out on the was up but coming down I took a video.
Poor Beth wasn't feeling great, Heather had a bus to catch and I was getting sick of pulling my suitcase along so we descided to head back to Beth's apartment and Heather went home.
Beth lives in west new york which is just the other side of the river !!!! I'll show you some pics in my next post.

Home alone
If all goes to plan I should be heading to new york tomorrow (Wednesday) YAY I'm so excited I have loved NYC every time I've been there so far so this time should be a blast aswell.
I'm also a bit sad that I couldn't go up to PA with the Bouffards as its so nice up there and I love being with everyone. I felt quite guilty telling the kids I wasn't going. Keith of course thought I was going back to England so I had to explain again that i'm here for another week. It makes me so sad to keep confusing him and to be in and out of his life all the time. Its hard for him to realise that I have another 'life' back in England. I tell him that my mum misses me and needs me back and he seems to understand that. It breaks my heart everytime I have to say good bye... Anyways I must stop dwelling on that and just enjoy the time I have left here.
Check out my guest post on Debi's blog on friday !

shopping and dinner

zoo
It was so very hot and humid today while we were walking round this zoo which was quite small. They did have a couple of lions and tigers and some bears but they were all in quite small areas. It was quite sad and i'm praying that they do have other bigger areas that they move them into when it is closed as they just did not have the right amount of space. We did have a nice day though even if the thought of those animals did stick in my mind, poor things.
The kids have been crazy for the rest of the day though, so I took a little 'me time' and went for a walk which was nice even in the humidity.
Debi took lots of pics today so check out her blog later as i'm sure she will put them up tonight on her blog who says 8 is enough.

They see dedication, creativity, camaraderie, joy and above all, ART - much art. I wish that this prize is entertaining to all bloggers who share this space and enrich it a little more each day." ~Arte Y Pico

3.Each winner should show the award and put the name and link to the blog that presented her with the award.
4.The award winner and the one who has given the award should show the Arte Y Pico blog so everyone will know the origin of this award

Verity's birthday
Sorry for my lack of posts but i'm back now and thinking of making this blog open but i'm still not sure.
Anyways here is a smilebox I made of my friends birthday. We went to an event held here in Bournemouth called Jazz Juice and they play only 60s and 70s disco music and we all always have a really great time. We made it special this time by dressing up and we all had a blast !
Check out the smilebox !
