Friends

Hi again!
These days I have images of posts in my mind that never get to the computer. I have random thoughts and ideas to share with you all and for one reason or the other I am too tired or have no time to post them. Also, my computer is giving me some trouble, grrrrr, makes me mad since this has been the story since I bought it. I will have to have it fixed for the second time now. Hopefully I won't get more trouble after that. I'm getting tired of it. Other than that I love being able to sit anywhere in my home with my laptop on my lap and read and write and look at pictures or even movies at my own discretion. Why didn't I do this earlier???

Anyhow, I wanted to share about my trip to visit some friends a couple of weeks ago. They are those kinds of friends that you just never got to spend enough time with, but you feel that you have a connection with them. I guess it's about values and about how to live life. We might have many differences in our day to day life but the truth is that we do have many many similarities and it feels good to share time with people who get you. They also are parents of a wonderful little girl that is the same age as Luca so that makes it even more fun and our understanding of each other is even greater. It is wonderful to see how they get along so well, I think in part is because they have parents that raise them in similar ways. It is really refreshing and relaxing for me. I even got to go out while I was visiting! I don't usually go anywhere because I usually get invited to dinner with friends who have no children and of course who gather around the time Luca should be getting ready for bed. So I end up not going, I really feel bad to do that to Luca, he gets bored there and then gets his schedule all messed up, so I rather just stay home and get him into his normal routine.

Hola de nuevo,
Estos ultimos dias tengo imagenes de posts que quiero poner pero que nuncan llegan a mi ordenador. Tengo pensamientos variados e ideas uqe compartir con vosotros pero por una razon u otra estoy demasiado cansada o no tengo tiempo de ponerlos. Tambien, mi ordenador me esta dando problemas, grrrr, me pone negra porque estoy con la misma historia desde que la compre. Tendre que mandarla a arreglar por segunda vez ahora . Esperemos que pronto no tenga mass problemas. Me estoy cansando de esto. A parte de eso me encanta poder sentarme en cualquier lado en mi casa con mi ordenador sobre mis piernas a leer o a escribir o a ver fotos o peliculas como me de la gana. Porque no lo hice antes???
Bueno, queria compartir sobre nuestra excusion del otro dia a ver a unos amigos. Son ese tipo de amigos que nunca tienes suficiente tiempo de pasar con ellos, pero sientes que conectas con ellos. Creo que es por los valores que tenemos y como vivimos nuestras vidas. Puede que tengamos diferencias en como la vivimos pero la verdad es que tenemos muchas muchas cosas similares y da gusto compartir tiempo con la gente que te entiende. Tambien son padres de una ninhita maravillosa de la misma edad que Luca y eso lo hace aun mas divertido y nosh ace entendernos aun major. Es incredible ver como se llevan de bien, yo creo que es porque tienen padres que los estan criando de manera similar. Es muy tranquilizador y me da mucho gusto que sea asi. Incluos llegamos a salir por ahi durante nuestra visita! Normalmente no voy a ningun sitio porque suelo ser invitada a cenas con amigos que no tienen ninhos y que logicamente se juntan a la hora a la que Luca se deberia estar preparando para ir a dormer. Asi que acabo no yendo, no me gusta hacerle eso a Luca, se aburre con adultos solo y luego su horario se hace un lio, asi que prefiero quedarme en casa y que continue con su rutina.

Our conclusion about going out was, we are the only women who are not looking for a catch tonight and we are the only people who are dressed appropriately for the weather. It was so funny, it was rather chilly but these Floridians didn’t have a problem showing quite a bit of skin. Not us!

Nuestra conclusion de la salida fue, que eramos las unicas mujeres que no ibamos a pillar esa noche y eramos las unicas personas que ibamos vestidas de acuerdo con el clima. Era de risa, hacia frequito pero estos floridianos no tenian ningun problema en ensenhar bastante piel. Nosotras no!

Hoping for many more weekends like that one! Thanks friends!

Esperando tener mas fines de semana como ese. Gracias amigos!

Ah! And sewingwise, I almost broke my sewing machine, at least I only broke the needle, trying the impossible…now I am in the middle of the impossible and I am not sure how I’m going to finish it, if I do, I will surely post some pictures but really, I don’t know how I’m going to do it. I want an industrial sewing machine!!!

Ah! Y sobre la costura, casi me cargo la maquina de coser ayer, por lo menos solo rompi la aguja intentando lo imposible…ahora estoy en medio de lo imposible y no estoy segura de como lo voy a acabar, si lo hago, seguro que pondre footos pero la verdad, no se como lo voy a hacer. Quiero una maquina de coser industrial!!!

Fui el domingo pasado a Corry a saludarlas a ti y a Claudia, pero llegué demasiado temprano creo -a las 3:30. Estuvimos por ahí una hora, pero Carmen tuvo una reacción alérgica y tuvimos que regresarnos a casa :(

Hi Carmen and Luca!

It was so nice to have you here. I love these pics. Aren't they cute together!
I am showing the post to Amelie too and she loved it.

Thanks,
Maddy
