Very Small Feet

Did you know that baby rave is a thing? Well we have finally made it to event by Big Fish Little Fish Event .  I knew what is happening, actual DJs, glitter cannons, bar, balloons, sensory madness and costumes.  What I didn’t know is how my kid will react to this...   This is us playing with silk parachute thingy to Jacksons 5!  And here is Egg with some modelling balloons.  It was odd. He straight away decided it was fun. And he shall expore, that involved me running after him with his shoes in my hands. Coz you know he was in.  I really need to work on teaching him not to take his shoes off in public places. I think it might be difficult since he has been doing this for a while. The balloons, the bubbles, other kids, glitter cannons and especially the parachute thing was his favourite. We danced under it, help to wiggle it. They do this in school so he knew what and how. And at some point while still on my shoulders he started enjoy...

This is finally happened. I convinced I think the hubby to get a cat.  And husband being husband really wanted a kitten because he is really worried about he cat not loving him so he will try to convince a kitten to love him.   Meet Buffy the small rodent slayer!  I don’t know of her mouse catching abilities but how cool is her name.  She is about 16 weeks old, super active and loving. But poor thing had a rough start. Her brother and Buffy were rescued from some house in the valleys both in a bad state and their mama was only 6 months old. This is very very irresponsible pet owners.  And it looks like her little tail been broken in few places when she was little. It is still funky but doesn’t affect her in any way.  She is playful cat and insists on sleeping in our bed. And she is ok with Egg carrying her around. That’s also good for him to learn to care about others.  However... this happened while Buffy was sleeping on the sof...

Music plays a big role in most people’s life. Somehow is always there on the background... it helps me run, cheers me up and sometimes is a good crying accompaniment.  I can’t play an instrument, but I would love to have a go at drums. I can’t really sing but it really doesn’t stop me.  Day before yesterday hubby passed me his phone with a sky news head life that Dolores O’Riordan passed away ages 46. Unexpectedly tears came to my eyes...  Cranberries were there when I was forming as a person. They were there when I was going home from birthday parties being sad that I am not one of the cool kids... Dolores was singing when I moved to Switzerland. And suddenly I realised this was over decade ago and I am not a teen anymore and duffle I bit of my younger self gone away...  But music is forever. Despite shortcomings of Pitch Perfect 3 I was super happy to hear Zombie... 

So I think it has been year since I last laced up my trainers and went for a run.  So pretty much every day since about 5th of January I was trying to get my shit together and go for a run.  A wish to run was there but the motivation and the will power wasn’t. Also the storms were not fun!  So after few days of procrastination I have finally decieded it was time and put the run into school run, after dropping of Eggy to school I run home...  Putting my winter running gear after a year of no runs was a bit... I felt like a sausage, everything was very clingy, and a not tight. It might be due to the fact that I didn’t wear tight head to toe, and well I have put on a little bit of weight understandably.   In total I run just over 4km in about 25minutes...  I should and could have been faster. What I didn’t consider before I set off it that everything was icy. I had to really concentrate on where each foot went. At first it was not relaxing. Runs are there to c...

And just like that another year has finished and the new one started.  It has been a busy and eventful year. But I am very much looking forward to the new challenges and events of 2018.  So this year I am hoping to: -cook more and use new recipes at least once a month -run a half marathon -become fitter -travel to Russia and somewhere else too -get the job (losing my permit really messed me up this year in job search. Would you employ anyone with no passport on hand? But I have a suspicion that my doncuments are in post sorting office waiting to be picked up tomorrow)  -read more -be a bit more healthier -use less plastic and recycle more -grow more plants, fruit and vegetables  -make more, craft and all!  Have you made any plans and resolutions? I think all these things are easily achievable. I am just hoping for a better year. And I wish you the same!
