Update from 25/12 till 29/12 2014

Still moving on with the
BLACK!!


Hey readers...

At first I wanted to say thanks so much for reading my blog!!
I hit almost the 11.710 views!!! Amazing numbers
We have a lot of coming backs hihi!!
thanks Pauline and Yolanda and all the others of course...

Well so as you can read off the title!!! Still a lot of black, black and more black on day 10 of this page.... WOOOW!! So many black, but I most do 1 row vertical and than I have done the black 

last time I had a row finish!! 
now I have done this + the three blocks above this...
Stil one more row to do!!
Hope to have finish this before the weekend.


We are with our heads in the moving part and I don´t like that!!
All the cleaning is fun, making room for stuff is also fun... but the moving part en the mess it makes, not fun at all!!

Yesterday i did good and have clean the bathroom, moving bathroom stuff from the camping to the home in to a temporary closet. Love it!! It takes all the mess away! Also i clean the microwave, the stairs and the tent from the caravan. { That was a disaster saturday, the snow just was to much and the tent didn't hold the weight and on 06.00 o clock my wife did some snow of the roof and came back to bed. At 7.30 again and we decide to break up the whole thing! so we had to move a closet, a fridge and a lot of other stuff. And then break off the tent, Ours later we lay everything from the tent inside for a good drying period and for cleaning the next day { so it was yesterday} That was a mess, and I am not love to make mess hihi!! Well it´s okay now!!

Today after paying for the kitchen, and a lot of driving around for this and that!! I did good and move all the clothes { with my wife of course} and clean out the whole closet { yes indeed I did that, my wife did the watching part, lol} I always think I do better, uhum!! Everything has a place, and lays the same... she does not matter that at all. So when I clean she sort out her clothes and I did the putting in haha!!

Then she goes for a washing of the bed clothes who needs a freshing up!! And I did cleaning of the bureau and other stuff and put things back where they belongs. 

And between that I stitch hihi!!

before

after.

I decided that I just stop with this and so this pattern again. I just make mistake after mistake and I don´t find the first mistake and that´s a big problem.
I begin when I am in the house with it. And hopefully I love it again, because now I love doing the black more haha!! When I am doing a little design always turn out with a stitch off, but with the big patterns I do it wright or can fix my mistake... I wonder why?

So on day 153 of polarbears I stop.

Our new year is with amazing friends

so I wish you the same...

and the four of this month...
Can´t wait till I have my kitchen and can order everything an go to bake something!!
 Also yesterday we { wife and I} went to bilzen, for a nice shopping day...

But It was so cold outside and there was a really hard wind, so we went in to a restaurant and didn´t leave it for a hour... my wife became sick and tired and didn´t can go further any more, so I fast go to my favorite bookstore and buy this lovely thrue book of the world war II.
https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/home.action



This book tells the story of a brave man....
who lives a terrible life in the war against the judish people { and many other}

my previous one was this.... 


this brave little girl does the library in the war, and that story is unbelievable...
When this book came out she lives... now I don´t now...

I read a lot of story´s of the war, all of them are true happend and it´s amazing how powerful those people where... I have a shame, because I should never have that courage... 
I have a lot of respect for those who didn´t and those who survived this terrible time!!
Let we never forget that this never happens again!!  

Well on the bright side of this life we can go shopping for christmas...
And we did that today...
yeey!!!

we went to vancranenbroek. A lovely place { again hihi!!}


We have a present for little sister...
Oh santa does that of course...
{ she is 9!!}


Again the birds outside get a present of santa...

It´s a new thing here in Belgium... it´s peanut butter for birds... like it!!
Hope they do to/// I like it because the idea, not for eating hihi!!


And of course don´t forget our furry friends...
A lot of snacks, yumm... they do LIKE that!!


And new beds for all three...

That was all I think for what I have bought these days...
