On Saturday  I woke up and saw the world in black, everything was negative. I hadn't slept very well, I woke up all two hours to the delight of cat Rosie, as her day is the night. As always when I have the blues I go on my terrace, sit down and breath deeply hoping to see the little fox or a squirrel, but they were probably in a bad mood too. 

 

I finally got up at 6 am and waited for Maria, my cleaning lady, who had shortened her holidays in Poland, because she couldn't stand the noise of her little grandchildren anymore, because she had thought she would be alone with her son and that her DIL and kids were at the sea on holidays. But they were also there. She decided to come back one week in advance and have her holidays here, but as we became very close over the years, she came and cleaned the apartment. What an angel !

I wanted to do great things and go out at least or invite my neighbor but at the end I fell asleep while I watched a movie after lunch and then decided to do some shopping and maybe go to the Horse riding Club watching the horse training from their Clubhouse. 

It ended that I just made a tour to the Waterloo Lion to see all the tourists on holidays learning about the Battle of Waterloo and climbing up the stairs to the Lion sitting on his mount.

 

 

It was depressing, ever since the site had been renovated in 2015 for the bi-centenary of the battle, and they had demolished all restaurants and bars there, there were a few sitting outside the new built restaurant, for a Saturday with such nice weather it would have been crowded in the past. I took some pictures just to get angry and returned home. 

Sunday I felt a bit better when I woke up, this time I had slept 5 h in one shot ! Dario called me and we had a nice talk, I emptied a bit my heart, he is still not fully healed from his Covid and feels a bit weak.

Luckily my DIL has nothing and Toby is OK again. Unfortunately they can't come next weekend either. There is the flower carpet again on the Grand'Place, after 3 or 4 years due to the Corona Virus crisis, a pity, it takes only place every two years, but there is nothing you can do about it, I'm going anyway, if I'm not too lazy again. 

 This was the one from 2016

 In the afternoon I made myself comfortable on the terrace and surfed the internet a bit.
 

Then came "my daughter" Isabel to try to connect my computer to the printer, which still didn't work.

This time she managed and I could finally print ! I never needed a printer but now with all the administration papers for Rick I really needed one. It's unbelievable on what I have to pay inheritance tax ! Even on my own little Toyota Aygo the half of the worth, and on our house we sold, because it was sold in less than 3 years !!

I start to understand why the children of Princess Margret of the UK had to sell their mother's jewels to pay the inheritancee taxes ! Looks as if it is in all countries the same !

 

Hope I don't have to pay taxes on half of Rosie !
