There's still snow...and yeah, it's still cold...

Hello everyone,

here I am again. I already walked with Chance. She keeps getting crazy when I release her in the snow covered world to play around. I wonder how she will react when the snow's melted away and all is "boring" again...
I also checked the Winterberg site, checking if there's still snow. And there is, so hopefully there will still be enough for Joyce and George to have fun on and with. Or, maybe in Joyce's case, fall on to. Ow, through the website you can see some webcams... Maybe you might be lucky and see Joyce hug an tree on one of them next week *smile*

*sigh* I am watching the final episode of "Bones" season 3 and it is quite WOW... Luckily there is a bonus disc in the box with the first three episodese of season 4. Which will probably get me too hooked and just eagerly awaiting the fourth season coming out on DVD. But I haven't seen season 3 in the Dutch stores yet. So I guess Amazon.co.uk has a good customer in me. Especially when the Pound rate keeps like this *wink smile yay* But still, having to wait is no fun... I guess everyone who reads this has felt like this about something he or she eagerly wanted.

Chance has been fed after our 45 minute walk and now she is sleeping like a wonderful red rose...

Owwww I so do NOT like the end of this last episode of Bones. Why? *sobs* Not nice... I hope it will be OK in the beginning of season 4. Otherwise I will need to see where I can get the following episodes. OMG! I think I'm hooked to this serie... Haha... The next one in a big line of series to be hooked on.

I almost uploaded all the Chance images of today. Some I will post here and the rest, just check the photobucket link to see more images of Chance. From the day that we bought her until today, there are pictures in her monthly albums. Just click on the album of your choice on the left navbar and enjoy.

Just started season 4, well the bonus disc with 3 episodes of season 4 I've got and had a cup-a-soup (well, 3 to be honest). And all the pictures and video's are uploaded as well. I am still waiting for George to call me back about bringing home the groceries. It would be nice if he'd bring them seeing I have no means of transport, other than my two feet. And walking to the AH is a bit too far and complicated with the snow and ice everywhere.

Ah well, let's post some of the best Chance-in-the-snow pictures of today.



This is a vid of Chance playing with a frozen stick she dug out of the snow.



Posing, again, very nicely for another "Chance in the snow picture"



Snow-snout Chance





Having loads of fun in the snow



Being a good girl, again

For all the pictures, please check with the photobucket link.

I will go and watch more Bones now *wink*.

Take good care everyone! Ta-ta for now and I'll be back.
Just 4 1/2 more days and then 5 days of vacation.
Will try to blog from Center Parcs as well. Although posting pictures will have to wait until I am back again.

Still cold and there's still snow

Heya everyone,

here I am again. After posting my final blog last night, I finally fell asleep. It's still freaking freezing here and there's still enough snow for Chance to play in. So when she saw the sun this afternoon, she got really crazy. So I decided to get out with her, take the camera again and hit the road. Euh, snow in this case.

Here are some of the pictures and another video. Enjoy and please comment *smile*



*yay* I love the snow



Posing in the sun



Jumping through the snow



Running through the snow is fun



I can't stop running *smile*

Seasons come and go

A kiss so gentle as a summer's breeze
A hug so intimite as the warmth of the sun
A love to tender as the sunrays on your naked skin
How I long for the summer again

A tear so glistering as a million raindrops
A smile so faded like the autumn leaves
A breath so calmly like the rush of the sea
When autumn arrives I feel lonely

An eye so sparkling as the winter's snow
A laugh so fresh as the wind on your face
A touch so careful as walking on slippery ice
Wintertimes can be so cold

A whisteling bird announces spring's arrived
You caress me like a long lost lover
A feeling so beautiful as the smile on your face
I always feel better with you at my side

A season of laughter, of love and success
A season that carefully goes on to the next
A season to cherish each and every moment
You never know when the feelings change

Written in bed cause I could not sleep...

Lying awake...again

While listening to two people, steadily breathing, dreaming of whatever and all, I am still awake. Normally I would get out of bed and do something in my attic room, watching a DVD or surfing on the net. But my bed, our bed, is nice and warm and I don't want to leave it. So I just grabbed my MDA and started my blog on it.

I hope you all enjoyed the vids and pictures I posted yesterday. Chance had fun making them. And I really liked the outcome of my camerawork. Please don't hesitate to place a comment on my blogs. I always like to know what my dear readers think of it. And a comment also means some more to me, since the writer has to take some more time and effort to place it. And that makes it well, somewhat special. So be sure that your time and efforts are truely appreciated.

How I long for a normal nights' rest.
How I long for a day without muscleaches.

I know I am still not 29 (four more months and a few more days to go) but sometimes I do feel like a 92 year old. When getting up (from anything, anywhere) is not going smoothly... When I want to do something all by myself and I find myself failing whatever it is I wanted to accomplish... *sighs*

And this damn cold ain't making things any better for me. I love to take walks but with all the ice and snow, I am kinda very much scared I will slip and fall in a terribly wrong way. And my latest 20cm scar isn't liking the cold either. It's so sore and hard and it hurts a whole lot. I do use a special scar ointment and that does help a bit. But that's just it, just a bit.

Due to the scar aches and my muscles aching as well, I lie awake a lot when I'd rather be sleeping. The only times when I sleep in easily is when I've had some alcoholic drinks before going to bed. NOOOO not being drunk! You need a lot of alcoholic drinks to get me drunk. Just like 3 glasses of sweet white wine... But I'd rather not get myself used to drinking each and every night. So I am awake again...

I will send this email blog update and hopefully catch some sleep shortly there after. Sjak, dunno if you read this, but I started working on your request/my offer!

Take care everyone,
Ta-ta for now,
Love Cynni xx

Cuijk in the snow

Last time I will blog today! But I wrote about posting some pictures of Cuijk in the snow, so here they come and then: I am offline for today.



The Jan van Cuijk windmill that is in our neighbourhood.



View on the Maas





View into the Hazeleger



Our garden

That's all for now folks!
Ta-ta and don't forget to comment *wink*.

Love,
Cynni xxx

More snow, more Chance

Heya everyone!

I survived the trip to the therapy and back. And then I uploaded some more pictures, read some incoming e-mails (still working on an answer for Sjak) and watched some DVD. When Joyce came home, we went for a walk with Chance and then we could also drop in at the Jan Linders for our evening meal. George told us he'd be home between 19:30 and 19:45, so we will wait for him. But after that, I will put my food in the microwave and get ready to eat (didn't want to cook...).

Today, 3 DVD boxsets I ordered at Amazon.co.uk (LOVE the low English Pound rates!) finally arrived! *yay* And Saturday I received Supernatural season 3 as well. Finally... Stupid Dutch TV DVD boxsets always take so long to come out... Sigh... Ah well, they promised us loads of cold weather for tomorrow, so I know where I'll be: inside with my laptop and a good DVD.

But I promised you some more pictures, so I will post them now.



A good girl in the snow.



"Will you play with me?"



Picture time!



Getting a cold behind in the snow



Playing with Joyce in/with the snow



Throw some more snow, please!



And a video I made this evening.

Hope you enjoyed it. I also made some pictures of the neighbourhood. Will upload them soon so I can post them as well. Please leave a comment if you like. I know I like getting nice comments to the posts I make *smile*

Have a good evening everyone. Be carefull when you need to get on the road and keep warm, it's getting cold out there!

Ta-ta for now,
Cynni xxx

Another vid

This is another video I made of Chance when we took our walk this morning. I uploaded it so you could all enjoy this as well.

Hopefully you'll enjoy it...



Much love, ta-ta for now,
Cynni xxx

Chance in the snow





Here you all can see how much Chance loves the snow *smile*.




I also made some vids, uploading one now for you all to see. So I will publish this blog in a minute, after I have the code to the video of Chance playing in the snow. I really hope there'll be snow in Center Parcs so she can enjoy it some more. And of course give me more opportunity to make pictures of it.

I will have to leave for therapy in about 45 minutes (as I am writing this) but I really don't want to. The road is slippery due to all the snow and I have to walk to the gym so well, not too enthousiastic about that. I guess, once I am busy there I will feel OK, but all the way through the snow. I am just afraid I will slip and get hurt and all. Maybe I am too cautius. I mean, walking with Chance went OK as well...



Ah well, here's the vid and I am going to prepare myself for the therapy.

Loads of love and hugs, till next time!
