Pls Sign me up!<br />
This time of year I might be dreaming of a cabin in the woods, but I can't miss to feel like putting on some glows and scarf, and freeze my nose running around a nice city. Christmas Markets are my favorite around this time, and here are some of the best. OOOh dreaming.. The places I've never been are now on my <i>traveling winter wishes list </i>:) Every place is so unique and so beautiful! .. and if you notice, in every city there is snow!<br />

Very shortly after I wrote this, on August 11th 2010, I actually got pregnant.. what are the odds??? hahaha :) Oh the intuition of a woman, it is precious!<br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">I know, I'm crazy, and my husband thinks so too, since.. well no I'm not pregnant.. yet. But that's how I do things. If I'm going to do something then I start doing it even if it's not here yet. I get prepared and how can that be bad? Worth it every penny since I got it for so much less, I waited for sales and I got 2 nice </span><a href="http://www.shadeclothing.com/maternity-clothing/maternity.html">maternity tops</a> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">from</span> <a href="http://www.shadeclothing.com/">Shade</a> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">which I loOove.

My body refuses to sleep but ignoring the fact it really needs to rest some good hours.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So when the sky was still dark and the sun still asleep, I was dreaming of a snowy day.. faraway in the woods, surrounded by trees, lots of them, a nice fireplace keeping me warm in a nice cabin, and the quite peace and silence outside that only snow can bring.. Cosy, warm, loved, relaxed.. Today I'm bringing you snow :)</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Not only, we are still unpacking since we just moved. We really don't have much, we need furniture, lamps, all kind of things. And.. I don't think we'll have a Christmas tree this year.. I know sad.<br />
But I like this ideas of making things yourself with p a p e r. Little resources, it's exactly where I'm at and I really love this ideas and patterns by artist <a href="http://juriannematter.blogspot.com/">Jurianne Matter</a>.<br />

One of the things I'd like to be able to do again, is to write my journal in a regular bases. But.. yea.. I'm certainly not there yet.<br />
Maybe that's why I love so much this idea! I think it is genius. Few words, and there you go. Sometimes that's all you need, an organized piece of paper to write on..<br />

</div><div>a crock-pot, seriously the best!</div><div><br />
</div><div>It is still going today, and my husband has become the master of it, while he was taking care of me while I was on bed rest.. for the past month.</div><div><br />
</div><div>I was talking to my mom today and she has no clue what that pot can do. Of course I didn't know it existed until our first Christmas, 2 years ago, when my sister in law and fam. got us one.</div><div>It isn't common and well known in Switzerland yet.. I say yet, cause well everything soon or later gets there, taking its time, but it gets there. But once it gets there it is high tech :)</div><div><br />
</div><div>Anyways, I had to find a pot for my mom, of somewhat a reasonable price and well.. at first I just wondered if they even sell it there. It took me a while to realize that crock-pot and slow cooker is the same thing and how they call it in Switzerland anyways.</div><div><br />
</div><div>This is for my mom:</div><div>eccoti la pentola slow cooker mami. Come ti homandato via e-mail tutte le info, posso trovarti anche qualche ricetta.</div><div><br />

After <a href="http://naomialice.blogspot.com/2010/06/there-is-great-joy-in-heavens-today.html">loosing my dad</a> last June some things have changed. For some time the normal things I used to do changed to other things. I had a refuse of getting back on the computer, I couldn't stand it anymore. I was just living the moment in such <a href="http://naomialice.blogspot.com/2010/06/gardening-is-serious-thing.html">different</a> <a href="http://naomialice.blogspot.com/2010/06/lamponi.html">ways</a>.. I guess <a href="http://naomialice.blogspot.com/2010/05/small-delicatesse.html">grieving</a>, .. I'm still doing now.<br />
<br />
Then <a href="http://naomialice.blogspot.com/2008/06/ok-here-it-is.html">my</a> Christian and I went through another great experience. At first it was such a joyful one. We were expecting a baby! Oh gosh, what an excitement. Doe to the fact I wasn't sure I was even be able to get pregnant, you can imagine how great news that was. It's been fantastic to be pregnant.. all the way even if from the very beginning I new I was having an hard pregnancy. I mean I figured it out once I started having so many symptoms I never heard anyone have in the first weeks or first months.<br />
<br />
Oh it has been hard, but not as hard as having complications, bed rest, a subhcorionic hemorrhage, pain of another world, gone in labor twice, and then actually lost the baby.<br />
What an experience. I'm not sure I can describe it. It is a very sad experience you know.. I've lost our first baby, and it has been so painful like anything before. Quite traumatic and not as simple as going to the bathroom and flash it out.. nop, not for me. It took weeks, lots of pain, bed rest, and moree pain, and actually mORe pain. Yes, epidural for me next time even if I'm not actually having a baby please!!!!<br />
But do you think it is crazy I look back with a smile? I loved being a mother, that feeling you get while pregnant.. so precious. I loved having this experience no matter how it ended.. I never want to forget it and I'm glad I can look back with a smile. We had a baby that was given to us even if for a short time, but he was with us :)<br />
<br />
Now talking about recovery. This is something else I'm still learning from. You know, everyone acts around you like it's not big deal cause they went throw it, their sister's went throw it, and oh they know so many friends that had tuns of miscarriages, so really it's not big deal.<br />
So without knowing I really started to think it wasn't a big deal for me. I think I kinda forced it that way, until I had to say, stop. I'm in general a positive person, but being positive doesn't mean you are doing great, you are trying to get better with a positive attitue. My body is drained, yep still drained, and I don't know how long it will take, but no I'm not back to normal just yet. I can do some things, but no I'm not back to normal just yet. Fact is, it is a big deal, being back to normal.. I can't say that.<br />
<br />
Some things are coming back to me, and I can finally enjoy more like go back to nice walks in fresh air, and enjoy this beautiful season that I love so much. I finally can go back to enjoy creativity.. I love to look up on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/">etsy</a> and see what other people have created. Even if right now I'm still not in the position to start making things, I love to be <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/">inspired</a> by other people. So now I take one day at a time, trying to follow what my body and mind needs to get back to normal after such a traumatic experience.<br />
It is hard to "<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">not run faster then you have strength for</span>.</i>.". It is in my nature to run, but in the past years I have done better. Hopefully also this time I will be better with my self and take it easy, keeping on learning how much nicer it is to slow down and carry on :) Oh yes, cause life it is so much better that way :)<br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There has been a lot of other people and companies that have tried to do and make the same thing, but like Shade there's none.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">One of my favorite things that do recall Switzerland to me, are the houses so well taken care in every details (wait isn't that the case for everything else??). Colors and flowers are everywhere, almost in a daily festive way. Nature again is in foreground, and you, the visitor, the farmer, the traveler, the business man, the normal individual walking by is once again amazed by its <b>beauty</b> of color, shape and <b>simple </b>but <b>accurate</b> creativity and taste. It is this clear, <b>when the Swiss do something they do it well</b>. Yes!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />

I know my bad. I've asked around for hints, but I think my problem is that I always want to find something <b>special</b> and <b>unique</b>. And usually I like to make things myself, you know <b>handmade</b>. I think you can always come out with something <b>original</b> when you put your hands in action with your ideas. Only, again, this time I'm a little restricted to do so, but I've still looked around for some ideas.<br />

Oh there's so many talented ladies out there, and so many cute things to put eyes on. I know, I went from baby finders to older kids beautiful things, but who can stop now? I think I spent hours and the hours have become days. Now I just can't stop but to keep looking for adorable baby and kids things.<br />

we spent a great day and 1/2 with our 4 nephews and 1 niece. I almost packed them all up and took them with me. They are so great, I love them.<br />
We hadn't seen each other for almost 2 years. I can't believe how everyone has grown so much. It has been so much fun to be called "aunt Naomi" so many times in a day and to play around with all of them. Playing ping pong, tennis, pool time, eating ice cream and sleeping all in the same room. What do you want more really? It's amazing what a day like this brings to you. I feel like it was long a month for all it has brought me.<br />

After a day missing them all we are able to get back together again. San Diego is the spot this time. I can't wait. It is our short getaway for 2 days, with more nephews and niece time, and camping in our new volvo :) That should be fun hahahaha who knows, might be the only time we actually want to do something like that, might as well keep ourselves young right?<br />
<br />
Here we come sunshine!<br />

I've been wanting to take my granola in plain yogurt with me since.. I've discovered that's all I need in the morning. Oh finally here is the solution. The <a href="http://www.unicahome.com/p52712/royalvkb/fresh-traveller-by-arian-brekveld-for-royalvkb.html">Fresh Traveler</a> ($45) by <a href="http://www.arianbrekveld.com/">Arian Brevkled</a>. Two separated container spaces as food storage and bowl at the same time. Genius! If I'll get this for Christmas I'll be more then happyyyy!!! Wait, I think Christmas is today! hahaha :)<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">Saturday we were walking around and found ourselves in the beautiful <a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/index.jsp">Anthropologie</a>. Yea I could live in that store. Of course I love almost everything in there, so I like to pass by every corner of it. Christian is so cute cause he just follows me and smiles at every "ooh look how beautiful this" and "oooh this is adorable" and so on. This time what got my attention was everything hand painted with bright colors on porcelain, glass, ceramic, etc. How <a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/category.jsp?_DARGS=/anthro/catalog/common/highlited_itemcount.jsp_A&_DAV=true&_dynSessConf=-4602107607312961018&viewAllOnOnePage=yes&itemCount=-1&pushId=HOME-TABLETOP&selectedProductSize=&startValue=1&id=HOME-TABLETOP&selectedProductColor=&defaultSort=&navCount=75&sortView=&templateType=&navAction=top&displayNumber=8&selectedProductSize1=&sortby=&prepushId=&popId=HOME">beautiful</a> really!</div><br />

The trip went fine. It was long of course. Switzerland and LA are never close enough. When it becomes longer then 24 hours I just stop counting..<br />
I got to hug my husband again after almost 2 months. If I have to count the fact we saw each other only for a week before I left, then it is over 2 months. Either way, somehow being together it is even better now :) I feel extremely blessed, that's for sure. He's so dang great. I think somehow he's even greater now, is that even possible?? yes it is :)<br />
We promised each other we'll never do this again. Being away from each other for so long. It is crazy! But I got to hug my dad again, saying goodbye and be a little with my mom after that. This are things you just don't plan ahead. Being married for only 6 months and find out that my dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer, your life just changes. Even that fresh newly weds excitement is dissolved in pieces by a crude and hard reality. That isn't something you plan, or wish or could even see it happening. I thought we still had time ahead, our future kids were gonna have grandpa Emilio teaching them all the secrets of good nutrition, hard labor, simple life, good taste, laughing hard, passion for nature and all the things that are oh so good and oh so beautiful.<br />
I hope that I'll be able to do all that, and to make my dad known to our future children by telling them all about him. Somehow I hope I'll be able to bring him alive in their lives. I think my husband is not too worried.. I have so much of my dad in me if I want it or not.Naomi Alicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02505365883406853131noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-46429900828850374.post-46473400189182895532010-07-06T00:55:00.001-07:002010-07-06T01:09:25.182-07:00one of those days..It is a day where I just realize how much I have thought of others and not enough of myself. Oh gosh when am I ever gonna learn this lesson? At the same time it just couldn't be different.<br />
As much as I'm so exhausted I'm pretty happy and glad for all I've accomplished while here in Switzerland. I'll be leaving very soon now, to go back to my home, my husband I haven't seen for almost 2 months now. It has been quite a ride, hard, sad, happy, a little of everything but in big, BIG doses. Quite an experience. I'm not even gonna try to explain it cause I don't know where to start. But I do feel my dad very close to me, in a way I didn't even thought possible. It is great. I don't miss him like I thought I would, with that sad, desperate emptiness. He is close to me.<br />
Somehow in me though I have the fear that taking a plain and get so faraway from where he built his life and finished it, I won't feel him that close. I know.. silly of me. I know I'll be taking him with me no matter where I'll go and be, but for now I have to deal with this feelings.<br />

I have new goals for the next months, year. I hope I can be as good to myself as I'm to others sometimes. I hope I can get that balance I once had to make my life a little easier and oh much better. I'll just need to follow my new motto of the year "one thing at a time" and I'll be able to accomplish everything.<br />
