Spring in Paris?

i bought these crab apple 

branches last night..

almost took out a few people

on my walk home.

i need some sign of spring!

it was 28 degrees this morning

here in paris.

so done with winter.

and i love winter.

but i'm done.

i'm ready to shed the

puffy coat.

decision making has 

never come easy to me.

i'm always the last to order

at a restaurant. 

trying to decide

even which restaurant

to go to

is enough to make

me crazy.

but, i did make one 

decision recently.

i'm not sending griffin

to preschool next year.

after months of 

mulling this over

i know that this is 

what is right for us.

believe me

there have been

and there will be days

that i wish he was in 

school for a few hours.

but that day will come

sooner that i know

and i'll have hours

and days

and years ahead of me

to spend my days

with out children.

and i'll wish for these days.

i did a little rearranging 

the other day.

i decided we needed a game table.

(thanks for the idea mom!)

we've been having fun

working on this puzzle.

griff and i at angelina

last week on my birthday.

angelina has THE most amazing

hot chocolate.

good mail days

make me happy.

even if i receive 

my mags a month late.

i will never tire of leopard.

i adore seeing older women

in their leopard here.

and speaking of fashion..

parisian women sure do 

love their furs.

my phone has been

indispensable since moving

to france.

my google translate app

is a must

and if i don't have time

to translate 

while shopping,

i'll snap a picture and 

go home and do it.

i'm sure the other shoppers

find me strange

snapping pictures of 

grains.

griffin's hiding place.

i've been busy this week

planning our next trip.

can you guess where?

bon weekend mes amis!!
