If I ever find a cake like this, it will really make my day!

I found this picture a while ago on a weblog, but I forgot wich one…

Wow, it’s been a while since my last post. A lot has happened since then.
I’m still on sick leave, that didn’t change. But what did…
- My husband started his own business, he actually already did since the 1st of may when he still worked at a company. Since the 1st of september he really went solo!
- Our daughter went to a new daycare and she loves it there! It’s in the same building as my husbands new office!
- I got fired. It wasn’t really a big surprise. Getting ill a lot and a burn-out in the first year at a new company isn’t very good…
So this is what’s going on in my life right now.

A few posts ago, I wrote that I would post something that made me happy every day. I failed at that, but I told my therapist (yes, I have proffesional help) about this assignment I gave myself. And she liked it a lot! So she gave me homework. To pick up where I left off and post everyday something that made me happy. Doesn’t matter what is it, just do it!

So… I will.

It’s been 2 weeks now that I’m on sickleave. And it’s not been easy. I still feel so much tension inside of me, I feel very agitated.
I really have to let things go, try to find something that will give me positive energy. Normally I would watch a movie or read something. But I can’t concentrate enough to do this. Well, if I really like the movie than it’s okay. But otherwise I have to get up and try to find something that will give me satisfaction.
It’s going to be hard work to try to relax. Doesn’t that sound strange?

Through a friend I found this hilarious video of two Chinese boys playbacking a Chinese opera. Made me laugh!

This made me smile today.

Since my last post in January a lot happened. To make a long story short, I’m on sickleave now. Diagnose; burnout.
My doctor and therapist advised me to try to enjoy the weather, do something nice for myself. Go outside, forget about work. I try to do all that, but it may sound strange, I find this difficult.
When I go outside I feel guilty. I feel stressed. I feel anxious. I’d rather stay inside, feel save. But, as I was told, this will only makes things worse. Can things get more worse? I don’t want to think about it.
So, I go outside. Take a walk with my daughter, go to the market… The market. Normally I love going to the market. But now, all those people! So crowded! Not so good idea. But hey, I tried! That counts for something! Right?

So, what I want to try is the following. Post something nice, something positive… everyday. Everyday? I’ll try.

Oh yes, little girls grow up fast. Last november I posted that my girl could turn on her belly, well now I can tell you that she can sit on her own!
We were so surprised by it! Hubby found her sitting up! Just like that! I am so proud! I’m such a mom…

If Elvis (our late cat, not the King) would still be alive, I would’ve bought him a wig. Yes I would.

Okay, Sinterklaas is back to Spain again but his ‘cousin’ Santa Claus is coming soon! So… If you’re looking for a hilarious gift you should check out this website DingDong. Especially the fingerpuppets…

I have only one word for this gal and her blog. FANTASTIC!

See for yourself.
