Life after Lizzi
Just over 2 years ago I posted my dream list of things to do before my 50th birthday. I thought most were attainable, realistic, and a few a bit over the top (like swimming 50m butterfly which I now have to admit will NEVER happen!). But little did I know how much my world would … Continue reading
Happy 10th Anniversary darling, photo’s that remind me of a wonderful day!
After the big IT update in the house, I have decided to do yet another ‘sort and save’ exercise on my digital photo’s. Of course the computers are I have to admit still not without problems, namely wobbly wifi that is tempermental to say the least, which strikes when I am home alone with a … Continue reading
Wild swimming
Wild swimming is a great way to just get outdoors and enjoy the bracing fresh air and cool waters of our coast, rivers, lakes, inlets and pools. I didn’t realise until recently that my morning cravings in Concarneau (to swim to the buoys on the beach in front of our holiday home) was actually a … Continue reading
Lunch with Lizzi
One of the joys of occasionally working from home, in addition to fresh coffee, a beautiful view of the garden, and a curious cat who is always after a cuddle (or a drink of water from the tap), is the business lunch on hand when the MD of the house is around in Brussels. Over … Continue reading
The bath is mine…….

Happy Valentine’s!
♥ late, February 14th 2012 Just had a fabulous evening with the Curti’s, an Italian swim family (ie they suffer the same early starts as we do!). Great to enjoy a romantic evening with all the kids (5 in total) but not sure how many will be up and smiling in 6 hours for … Continue reading
Day 334 – Nice Stuff.. on a normal day
Wednesday 30th November 2011 Nice stuff has happened today (it’s great focusing on the small acts of kindness rather than worrying about the bigger picture some times!).

Day 297 – Happy Mondays no. 6
Have goals to look forward to Feeling good about the future is important for our happiness. We all need goals to motivate us and these need to be challenging enough to excite us, but also achievable. If we try to attempt the impossible this brings unnecessary stress. Choosing ambitious but realistic goals gives our lives direction … Continue reading
Day 291 – Soup ‘n cookies……
I know it sounds like a very strange combo, but last nights supper was this hugely yummy soup with garlic bread (an absolute must in this house if you have a day or two old baguette hanging around), followed by Hubbie and I cooking cookies after bedtime for packed lunch boxes today. True love! ….. … Continue reading
