Hello Ladies,
I’m back :-)
Thank you for your numerous comments. Sorry that I didn’t check in more often, but to be honest, I needed the break. These past 3 weeks we did absolutely nothing but catch some R&R. In Germany we have a saying that fits exactly what we did on our holidays: Wir haben die Seele baumeln lassen. A literal translation would be, we let our souls dangle, which roughly means we soothed our souls.
Needless to say I feel great. Either we played with Damien or he was at grandma’s, so Chris and I kicked back. I read a ton of stories and wrote my first fan fiction. (I’ll share the link in a bit.) We visited friends or they came over. I went to a cool science museum for kids with Damien. We enjoyed the beautiful summer weather (we really got lucky when it came to the weather this year). And Chris is now up to date with watching True Blood. Talking of True Blood, since last week, I have been watching the scene where Sookie dreams she is in bed with Eric at least 3 times a day and I am still not tired of it. Hot, hot, hot. You even get to see a bit of his fine Swedish ass – love it. Unfortunately the clips on you tube are all edited.
Anyways, I’m back to freebie hunting, so here is what I found today. Enjoy.
Cheers, Angie aka IkeaGoddess

ReplyDeleteHI Angie;
ReplyDeleteso glad you are back. i'm happy to hear you've had a great holiday.
i too have been worried about where you were...i can totally understand you needed a break, but you know, while you were MIA, I wondered if something bad has happened. (understanding of course that one can't/won't/should not share everything with all the strangers on the internet)
anyhow, i am glad to hear it was none of this, just a much needed rest.
thanks for all your hard work, i really enjoy your blog!
I am so glad you're back, but more important that you enjoyed your vacation! I, too, have watched that scene over and over. I'm so bummed as there are only 2 more episodes and I've read all the book..anxiously awaiting the next. ERIC is HOT!
ReplyDeleteSO glad you're back - I missed my fix LOL - but I'm real pleased you had such a lovely break. There's nothing to beat "family time".
