WHAT DID YOU DO THIS WEEKEND ?



This meme helps you to remember what you did on the weekend of 26 May

The worker who was supposed to replace the old joints between the tiles of our terrace let us down and didn't show up since Thursday. Fortunately all old joints are gone which had caused a lot of dust. I spent Saturday with cleaning the windows and Mr. G. finished off to clean the entrance with the Karcher ! Otherwise we couldn't use the terrace and a lot of dust was brought into the house although we tried to clean the shoes before. Hopefully we quickly find another one who does the joints. It really gets on our nerves !

In the afternoon I spent a little hour with Dominique. The sun still shines and we have a wonderful warm  weather, but there is also dust in the air, everybody complains because the cars are all covered with dust and  I had to go through the carwash because my car wasn't grey blue anymore but only grey.

On Sunday I went to the big Midi Market in Brussels and probably while I was looking through a bunch of bathing suits, a pickpocket stole my camera out of my purse which has several pockets closed with a zip. It was hanging on my belly and I didn't feel anything ! I realized it when I wanted to take a picture of a band who was playing there. I was furious and angry and returned home. Now I am without my camera and feel like my third eye is missing !

To forget all my miseries I went with a friend to the movies, and we watched a French comedy, it was fun, made us laugh, but nothing special.




"La Pomme" The Apple

After the cinema we went to a Pub called "The Apple" to have a goat cheese salad which is very well served there. There were lots of guests sitting outside on the terraces in a very nice garden. The waiter came and we ordered, after a while he brought us our drinks and then we waited while chatting. After 45 min we still weren't served. I called the waiter and asked him if they were busy to milk the goat and make the cheese in the kitchen. Therefore to keep us in a good mood he brought some freshly baked rolls and a second round of drinks for free. We continued to chat and time went by and suddenly we weren't hungry anymore. After 1 1/2 h of waiting we emptied our glasses and left the restaurant. The goat cheese salad will be for the next guests ! We had enough, at least we had 2 free drinks each !

I forgot to mention that our electric shutter fell down and needs to be repaired too !

What a weekend !

MY HOROSCOPE OF YESTERDAY

This was my horoscope of yesterday :

It's a lovely day. The air is fresh and clean. Confidence is high, and you feel as special as you truly are.
You radiate like warm sunshine.


Perhaps you have invented or created a thing of beauty that others want and your art is on display.
You may find yourself full of passion, enjoying the people that have come to either see your work or share in a common experience. You may also spend a great deal of time beautifying your surroundings at home with colors and art. . Because of financial gains recently, you could fall into a new way of thinking.

Indeed it was a lovely day, the air was full of cement dust and rather dirty coming  from the tiles of the entrance and the patio with a not so soft wind which blew clouds through the air.  My confidence was maybe high before I started cleaning, and I really felt special in my dirty jeans and T-shirt armed with bucket and sponge. I didn't radiate like warm sunshine, I was red like a tomatoe and sweating !

I have invented to dust the plants and flowers with a static duster, so that they became green and red again which indeed showed that my art was on display (the duster was yellow). I couldn't find any passion for cleaning in me, but I enjoyed the people who came by to pity me about my hard work. They didn't share a common experience, but they chatted with me about the last events in our street, which was a good excuse to do nothing and just rest.

This was the great deal of time I spent to beautify our surroundings not with colors and art but with with a duster, broom and bucket. I looked in the whole house to find our financial gains, but couldn't find nothing else but invoices.

Now I think over where the money is although this is not a new way of thinking.

See my horoscope was right !
