Nearly week 10

Bang goes my good resolution to post here at least once a week. But at least I make progress with all the other resolutions.
I am reading again - and all kind of things. The latest J.D. Robb, as well as the biography of a german heiress to a  pencil imperium (Faber-Castell). There are still about 5 or 6 unread books on my night-stand and about a dozen more on the shelf, but I am going there.
Monday my life-partner/lover/friend/man ordered a blue-ray player and some blue-ray dvds as well - among others Julie und Julia and Eat Pray Love. They arrived today. Unfortunatly, tonight we are invited to a dinner - but I so much wish we could stay at home and watch the movies. Life is unfair.
On an other subject - I am still developing my culinary skills. Last sunday I made roast beef for the first time - and the family ate it all. No left overs for next day.
I also discovered listening to music again. This may sounds funny, but I have not listen to music regularily for some time now. So when I cooked lunch on sunday, I put in a cd and I noticed how much I missed that, and how much the music influenced my work, my thinking and my creativity. I automaticly started making plans for future projects. It is good to know, that it is still there - the creativity and the urge, to be creative.

Today lent starts - and I have promised myself, to honor this time of reflections and self-discipline. I will not drink alcohol, cut down on my sugar input and have already dusted the ol' bike and used it today for the first time this year. Fells good. Yeah - I am a good girl ;-)
