Things I Love Wednesday

Love road trips. I love going from place to place, seeing all the things you want, having the feeling you're totally free, getting exhausted but satisfied.

Love Bryce Canyon.

Love every polite person I met during the trip.

Love that Americans are so polite and sweet.

Love mountains, lake's, wild animals, nature.

Love that my parents in law left their European prejudgements in the past about American people, now that they've seen that society for themselves.

Love every Ray Lamontagne song.

Love my new intention to draw at least one day a week. One day is not much, but way more than I'm doing right now. Hopefully I will stick to it and finally get a great collection and improve faster.

Baby Names

Why didn't anybody tell me finding the right name for your unborn child is the most difficult part of being pregnant? Today I'm 22.4 weeks pregnant, with no name. And I can feel the pressure building up by hour! Finding the one name you will fall in love with is one thing, then your partner have to feel the same way and that's a whole different thing, so I've learned... Also, last year we got our name Dean (James Dean, because we're a fan) stolen by many people (People really do suck sometimes) and left us with empty pockets.

To me 'The name' must have a real meaning for us, I want it to be Irish, American, Bohemian or English, a bit unique, maybe even green/nature like and it must sound solid and sturdy. Why does it have to be so hard...??

Back from the US

Why does it always have to be this hard to go back home??
