… are such a surprise!

On Friday morning I discovered several pieces of laundry missing from our washing line. About 4 long sleeved shirts but also my favourite pair of jeans!! I am still really annoyed about it. Who would do such a thing?? I kept trying to understand… bored kids? someone needing dry clothes? a criminal on the run? 😉 I still have no clue!

But as if the universe wanted to make it up to me, that night, in an empty parking lot we found a beautiful (and huge!) pot of pink orchids, all wrapped up. Obviously a present, and I guess somebody forgot to load them in their car and left them standing there. Was it bad to take them home? I somehow felt I was given a present after loosing stuff that morning 😉 I hope we can keep it alive, orchids are quite difficult to keep.

What a day!

And what a weekend, Paul is submitting his thesis on Wednesday so it’s very hectic. I worked really hard all weekend helping him with spelling/lay out/plot checks. I hope it will be ok. Only two more days to go! I’m looking forward to no more stress… 🙂
