Paris in Real Time


As I said in my previous post, I was seriously considering quitting my blog...




I have to say, that I have had a very difficult time entering back into my day to day life, since I got back from Paris in Sept. To be honest, a lot of it has to do with the economy, and all the "stuff" going on in Washington. On the one hand, I need to stop watching the news, on the other, I feel like I have to know what's going on...

Not telling you which way I lean... it just seems like a big ole- mess, no matter which side of the aisle you are on.

I've been a little depressed, and I promised myself that my blog would never bring anyone down, so I've chosen to post very little since I returned. Then Post-Modern Jen sent me a blog award. I was so excited! It perked me up, and helped me decide to keep on for a while.

I have a million Parisian blogs up my sleeve... but some of them deal with minutia... (the small, precise, or trivial details of something). My husband says minutia is my favorite subject, and his worst nightmare. Ahhhh... the difference between men and women.

So anyway, here's the award. Thanks so much Post Modern Jen. I really needed this.




Jen called it a Heartfelt Award. I wanted to pass it on to some of my favorite blogs.


So ladies, pass this award along to some of your favorite blogs, link them, and let them know they've received it by commenting to them.

To everyone else, please give these blogs a click... they are awesome, and they inspire me day by day.

Here's another little piece of "Paris in Real Time"...
minutia if you will...



Scott didn't actually roast that chicken... we bought it...LOL.
Also, we've eaten in our apartments a few times over the years, so I have no idea why I said that...but we had never gone to this much trouble, as in figuring out how the oven worked to heat up the chicken, setting a nice table, lighting a candle, etc. Usually it was just a sandwich or bread and cheese. This was a very nice dinner and a special evening.

Almost makes me cry... I miss it.

Au revoir,
Teri

"Paris in Real Time"



Sometimes...

it's really nice...

just to do nothing...





I'm in slow motion because my body and mind are in shock over not having a "to-do" list constantly running around in my brain...also, we have visited The Louvre no less than 6 times over the years...it's fantastic!

This video brings back the memory of such a wonderful day. The French really enjoy their city, and their green spaces.

I hope to incorporate more times like this in my life...

I'm beginning in about an hour, when I pull up to my favorite beach...all alone... just to read and enjoy God's awesome creation. I'm afraid I overlook it, most of the time.



Hope you find a few moments this weekend to relax. As for us, we are off to Disney, and I can promise you we will be in "go" mode... LOL.




Have a magical weekend...
Teri
