el limoncito lo quiere
y lo llama Limornero

Very cold

It's been very cold lately. Unusually cold for this city. Colder than previous years.
I felt my body trying to adjust to this. I've been less active and wanting to sleep more.
I'm not famous for sleeping or resting enough.

I should have rested more but instead I walked in the early cold mornings by the river







































I made very good apple cake


Worked a lot on my "not so new" earrings. I'm happier each day with how these are coming out.




I've done HOURS of math study with my son. 
Unfortunately no guarantees about his exam last week. Optimism is NOT in the air :-(

He won the national soccer team t-shirt signed by members of the team including Leo Messi at the school raffle. He was famous for the day and loved the attention. That was the big prize and many were after it. Ironically, he, not such a big soccer fan, won it.


Yes, I've been wanting to hibernate like a bear but instead, I made this little doll with a hibernating little bear.





































As my great grandmother used to say: I'll rest when I'm dead :-P

Farewell to a friend



























































































One of my dearest is moving abroad to the next life's chapter. We shared a serendipitous sentimental day tour to emblematic places in Buenos Aires that are part of our common history.

An entire day of walking, cafes, painting or drawing at the cafes and endless talk. A day of sharing essentially.

At some point when I returned to live here I though that the puzzle was finally solved, all pieces finally together.

Now I feel that the only thing that I'll ever have is the love I give and share in each moment. (And the next, and the next) No more than that. The future is not such an arrival place as it used to be. Nothing will ever be into place but as long as there's a lot of love in each present moment all is well.
