Lucas' Dreamboard

Oh gods, I forgot including my little son's dreamboard! Here it is... I just copied the images he chose to a Word page, and typed the header. He was a little material this time. He wants things! LOL He wants a little pig and a little tree to watch them grow and hold (as I told Suzie, in our tiny apartment it's impossible, but luckly he has his grandpa's little farm where they can live). He also wants a microphone so he can sing his songs out loud at home. He wants to increase his plastic bottles' lids collection. And to meet Hermione (his first crush, no, actually his second crush, the first one was Melinda Gordon from Ghost Whisperer). And the last and scariest dream: he wants a ghost! I was like, "what?!". He says he already sees ghosts at home, but never has time to talk to them, because I'm always asking him to do things... Autumn, please give me a hand on this!! Definitely I don't want any ghosts staying here chatting with my son, bu I had to include the image, he demanded it... Well, we'll have a talk when I get home tonight before celebrating this esbat.

I suggest everyone taking a look at the other beautiful dreamboards at Suzie's Sacred Space, they're amazing! Have a great weekend, friends, see you asap!

Sacred Suzie's Full Moon Dreamboard challenge

Tonight the Full Moon will be up in the skies, and like last month, I joined Sacred Suzie's Dreamboard challenge. I was breaking my head (again) to get to the proper visualization to what I want and need this month, then the wise life helped me on this...

To shorten a long story, I work as a secretary at a small company that manages a small jewelry workshop. It's a wonderful place to work at, because I'm very free to do what I have to on my own way without a creepy boss over my shoulder, since, thankfully, my boss is a sweet (and strong) Russian lady who trusts me. Unfortunately it's getting more and more difficult for her to keep things - bills are accumulating, materials are not being purchased - all the signs of failure - so last Wednesday she had a serious conversation with me and told me that it would be better if I started spreading my curriclum around, because she didn't know how long she would be able to run her business. Ok, I thought to myself, at least she's fair enough to let me know, and I really felt sorry for her, because I do believe in her talent and competence, and always thought that things would be better in time.

So life goes on, and next week on my spare time I'll be sending my CV to job agencies, and will be taking to people who might help.

AND to reinforce this need, I came up with my dreamboard, simple again but now focused in some points I usually wouldn't give attention to like Money.

Favorite Thing 4 - Chocolate

One more week of Blue's Favorite Things meme! Today mine is Chocolate!

Aaahhh... Definitely something that rocks my world! I simply adore chocolate... I just want to eat them all! I just don't like white and half-bitter taste ones. All the rest fits me like a glove! Specially now we're in Winter time, a mug of hot chocolate is perfect... Or...

Eclairs...

Truffles...

Ice-creams...

Cakes... It's a passion since childhood... Of course, there's always a "but": I suffer from migraines, so I have to be careful, because in my case, depending on the amount of chocolate I eat, it can start a severe crisis, and it's not a good price to pay, so I do control myself (well... most of times...)! But at least once a week (or twice, or... LOL)I like to eat anything with chocolate, that melts inside my mouth... hmmm... So that's my choice for today!

ABC Wednesday - Z

So we reached the last ABC letter and this round is over. I really enjoyed being part of this weekly fun - I learned many things throughtout the year, and I intend to keep playing!

Z for me is the title of Vassilis Vassilikos's great book about the Greek democratic politician Gregoris Lambrakis's murder and all the events that antecipated it. When I read this book I was very young and it shocked me how similar dictatorships can be no matter which country it is. Costa-Gravas directed the film based on the story a few years after the book was launched, being, well-deserved, a great success and winning many awards. If you haven't read the book or watched the movie, I highly recommend it!

Weekend of play and music

This Saturday we had Lucas' school Junine party - a very traditional party in Brazil.

Lucas didn't want to join the dance this year, but went to the party and played a lot!

Jumping...

Hiding in the ball's pool...

Suspiciously throwing rings at the bottles...

Playing with his teacher, "aunt" Monique...

Just being with dad...

And taking our photo!

It was an indoor party, because the weather outside was chilli and windy but the all the kids had fun and Lucas got exhausted after all the play!

The day after, he decided creating a song called "Garage", and asked Rodrigo to put the music in it. It was really fun watching dad patiently writting down the lyrics about a car that went to save another and decided to jump into a lake and then go into a garage, followed by another one and start all over again (there were about five or six cars in the song...), and then fitting the lyrics to the music:

It was a good weekend in family, just being together! :-)
