Walkies!




The man and I took the dog for a four and a half hour walk today.  Yummy.

Started out a bit inauspiciously, me cranky, the man realising I hadn't eaten and feeding me, and then rain.  That all improved though enormously.

Then a bath and a nap.  I have been struggling to get a bathtub in the new house, and we have one.  I don't have a bath often, but when I want one I really really want one.

I swear this has been the holiday of the nap.  Honestly.  I'm sleeping ten or eleven hours every night plus a two + hour nap every day and I still feel sleepy.  Not tired, but sleepy if you can see the difference there.

Went over to a friend's house to scan and send some plans to contractor number 1 and had a hilarious conversation comparing Catalan, Spanish and English swearing.  Rich and varied.  Though the Catalans seem the nicest of the lot.   A little crude in day to day conversation, but not nearly so harsh when they argue.  There has to be a point in there somewhere.

Off for a few days, posting likely to be irregular or non-existent.  Happy chocolate days!

  1. I guess your body is playing catch-up. If I went for a four and a half hour walk, I wouldn't be tired or sleepy - I'd be exhausted!

    I love that picture - creepy/wonderful.

    Happy Chocolate Days to you, too!

  4. I am really sleepy lately and wondering if it is the winter to spring thing... nevertheless, big fan of Nanna Naps.

    I often think about German swear words (hmm not sure that came out right) they don't really have all that many - the younger generation seem to prefer to swear in English (hearing Young Turks on the train talking aloud in a fantastic mix of Turkish/German/English swearing... makes me giggle...Mr Dear Husband suggested that me laughing at them will get me knifed one day)

    On the whole - Germans don't swear in everyday conversation - well not as much as Australian's do.

    Just found out that Mr Dear Husband is coming home Sunday Lunch time... Yeeeehaaa!!!
