Eu só quero que você saiba
Que estou pensando em você
Agora e sempre mais
Eu só quero que você ouça
A canção que eu fiz pra dizer
Que eu te adoro cada vez mais
E que eu te quero sempre em paz

Tô com sintomas de saudade
Tô pensando em você
E como eu te quero tanto bem
Aonde for não quero dor
Eu tomo conta de você
Mas te quero livre também
Como o tempo vai e o vento vem

Eu só quero que você caiba
No meu colo
Porque eu te adoro cada vez mais
Eu só quero que você siga
Para onde quiser
Que eu não vou ficar muito atrás

Tô com sintomas de saudade
Tô pensando em você
E como eu te quero tanto bem
Aonde for não quero dor
Eu tomo conta de você
Mas te quero livre também
Como o tempo vai e o vento vem

Eu só quero que você saiba
Que estou pensando em você
Mas te quero livre também
Como o tempo vai e o vento vem
E que eu te quero livre também
Como o tempo vai e o vento vem

rain

The weather here in Amsterdam it came back to the usual shower-rain!

Last night Pieter and I went to the rental place and came back home under such a strong pouring rain!!! The drops came down so cold and so strong that my head was hurting!!!

And now, tonight, the same thing!!! :-(

We went out with some friends to the uitmarkt and when was time to come back home we came back under such strong shower!!! (and by bike!!!)

We were soaked wet!!!

Anyway, now I am inside, all dry and warm, ready for an horror movie and some hot chocolate and then I remembered about this post! And hey!!! Isn't it a great idea??!!

Those rainy boots are very practical and nowadays they are also VERY CUTE!!! ;-)

Think I will be getting a pair soon enough for me! :-)

Hope you all in a warm place right now...

(even if this means under the covers inside your place ;-) )

... enjoying a wonderful weekend!

I love today!

I need to share this with you!

Probably some of you already know her, since I came to it via one of my every day read bogs, but still, I need to!

I was bored to death, browsing around when suddenly came to the PinkCupcake site (which I entered for the name and stayed for the style) and I can't stop smile! :-D

Congratulations Daisy, for your amazing posts!

Your blog makes me smile

Those pictures are from last year... but they make me so happy all the time I look at them, that today I've decided to share them with you!

Todays is one of those days, when I have a headache and I am all moody... (but I am not wearing sunglasses at home, neither reading a nice book, but a bunch of papers - or at least trying - to go the figure link to read the description ;-) )... But gladly I have my *dreamy* with me to cheers me up!

I am glad that this week is over and weekend is coming... The come back home, from home, wasn't very easy on me, in all ways...
But life is like this and most follow its course!

Vou aproveitar para deixar aqui um beijo IMENSO para meus pais e meu irmão que estão no Rio!
And lovelies wishes for a wonderful weekend to all of you!

fading away...

view from my balcony
Upload feito originalmente por ana_assisjesus

Summer is slowly fading away...
The days are not as sunny as before... not warm as before...
But still, the days are long, not that cold... and inviting for a stroll in the park! :-)

Summer is getting to an end, soon fall will fall and the leaves will be gone... and this nice view from my balcony will be traded by "dead" trees and brown grass...

At the same time fall is just a warning that winter is coming, I can't lie I am looking forward to it. I love the color of the leaves during fall, as I love the bloom during spring!

That is something about me people might get it wrong... I love summer! But more than that, I always look forward for between seasons: spring and fall! That is something magical about them that is impossible to explain!

And you?
What is your favorite season of the year?

Good Morning!

Hello to all!

This is not being one of my best weeks, but neither the worst, I am glad to say!

But, nothing better to cheer up my mood than a nice breakfast!
My baby made me some tea, and left next to my side of the bed, and last night he made me some pancakes!!! :-)

So now, all I have to do is make me some more tea, enjoy my pancakes with sugar and cinnamon and get ready to work!

Hope u all have a nice week.

A.

PS.: we do have one of those electric boilers, which is much faster, but I do love my heart kettle! Isn't it the cutest thing ever?

Galileo!

The Google logo today celebrates the 400th anniversary of Galileo's telescope!

Hello lovelies!

I am BACK!

I've arrived in Nl on sunday and this week is already a working week (no rest for the wicked)... and as I am still shifting my time zone, and feeling like I am waking up at 3:30am instead of at 8:30am... It will take some time to come back to more regular posts...

But in the meanwhile, hope you all had/are having the time of your lives!

Giselle

For a long time now, Pieter and I are trying to go to a ballet... and for years I want to see Giselle!

I couldn't be more luck! The Brazilian national ballet was playing it here in Rio!

It is a very sad story, but very very BEAUTIFUL!!!

I loved it!

Ok!
Tomorrow starts my vacation time!
I am going home! (well, not really, I am home, but I am also going back home! It is so nice to have two homes!)
Now I just need to push everything inside my suitcase and relax for three weeks!
See my family, friends and have an amazing second time wedding + full party and of course! The honey-moon! :-D
I'll probably not be blogging around much... so, for my lovely readers!

insects!

As you, my oldest followers, know very well... I HATE insects!!!

Which is a pain, cause there is no summer without them!

This year I made a huge effort to pass the summer without touching on the subject of insects!

I've ignored the countless times they went into my eyes, fell from the wet trees on my head, buzzed around me and disturbed my outdoor time!

But today I had enough! :-O

It is kind of impossible, without airco, to not open the windows, and windows open are like an invitation...

Today I had wasps, flies and bees buzzing around the house... and weird unidentified black-like-wasp insects stalking me!

So I need to put it out! I HATE insects...

So... phew! There it is! :-D

Now I can stay a few more posts without complaining about those BUGS...

But don't get too comfy... as on thursday I am leaving to Brazil, where is always summer, and we always have insects.... and spend my honey-moon in a lovely cozy hotel inside a forestal reserve! ;-)

'till next complain,

xx

I just saw this easy chart at Coco's tea party!
So I've decided to make the test and the results are:

When I am on the small side I got Emporio Armani (which in fact matches most f my hats!)
And when not, I got Erin Fetherston (which match my bands!)

And you?
What is your taste?

Spa!

Well, as posted yesterday... I had my birthday! :-) and today I got my treat... I am on a spa! :-)

This place is AMAZING!!!

SENTO: spa and health club

I've got a relax-massage and a hidro-massage! Between juices and teas I also enjoyed the jacuzzi and sauna! I feel like I was born again!!! Hahahahahaha

Well, now I need to get ready for a romantic dinner with my lovely husband, who found this paradise for me! :-D

Wishing u all a great weekend!

Running

Today I've started running! (as you can see on the sidebar advertised by my nike+ mini ;-) )

My parents in law gave me this nike+ chip (attached to my running shoes on the above pic), which register how long and how fast have you been running, and it synchronize with your ipod! And post on a workout log your progress!

You also can have a power song to cheer u up ;-) and get a virtual trainer, which will make training programs for you!

As of today, I just started my walk to run training, which will take 12weeks ;-)

Check out the site (and my progress) ;-)
Have a nice end of sunday and a great week all!

xx
