january trip stateside

while home i... 

took too many blurry photos while i experienced new memories with old friends in the familiar places

watched the winter sunset from the newest parking garage

(*and for the record, a person can walk faster than a car can drive to the top)

spent time with my family

uu and legos

brother and sis, françois and pierra 

had my heart stolen by kitties and am still finding cat hair all over me

ate the {worlds smallest (cutest!) sundae ever}!

and so much more.

bump in the road

the past weeks have been busy after i said goodbye to my husband and as i finished my work in paris for my vacation and journey back to my home country.  yesterday morning i closed my apartment and headed to the airport in a horrible rainstorm.  funny, it didn't occur to me that this rainstorm would turn into hail and i would end up staying in the airport for nine hours before i left for dublin to catch my connecting flight to nyc.  although it was long, the time seemed to pass quickly.  everyone seemed to form friendships and stories and as we finally boarded our plane hours late we all knew each other as we sat down to begin our flight.

since i missed my flight, the airline has taken good care of me.  put in a nice hotel with meals and shuttle service. during all of this time apart from cyrille, i think this was the moment i missed him the most.  there was so much negativity and i knew if cyrille and i were together we would be a positive force against it.
