First of all, I want to tell you that I was nominated for the award “One Lovely Blog Award” by Rob from http://weight2lose2013.wordpress.com Thank you Rob for this nomination!!
What can I say? I’m flattered. What else? I’ll put a picture of the award on the side of this page . Something more? Yes!! I’m not going to do all the other requirements of nominating other bloggers and saying things about me. Am I breaking the rules?? Yes!! Why???? Because I can!!!

Busted again… I decided to reward myself with a long bath on Tuesday evening.
After the bath, I didn’t feel like hiding the evidence because it was pretty cold.
Yesterday afternoon, when my second son went to the bathroom, he shouted: “Did you take another bath with candles???”

A couple of weeks ago, I was with my oldest son building a little cabinet to put in the bathroom and he found the missing lighter hidden in one of the boxes I used to leave inside the tub. He asked: “Why is the lighter here?” “I use it sometimes” “Do you smoke too?” “No, it’s to light candles” “Which candles?” “The ones I use when I take a bath” “But the bathtub is full of boxes!” “Yes, I leave the boxes there on purpose. You see, if I don’t, you and your siblings will make a swimming pool in the house and I don’t feel like drying everything every time. See this? This is where I hide the candles, the soap, and the incense” “You cheater!!” “Hehehehe, but I keep the wine in the kitchen” “And you take bathes every time we go to daddy?” “Pretty much… And I also put some nature sounds on the iPod and… relax”. I was VERY careful choosing that last word.
Few days later, when the man came to pick my kids, my oldest son and him had a fight. The man was shouting at me: “He’s not coming with me!!” “He is because he is your son and you have to take the children today, handle the situation” “I don’t want him like this!!” So my son interrupted us saying: “She doesn’t want me here either, she has plans” “Do you??” “Maybe” Then my son continued: “She take long bathes with candles and music when we are not here” WTF!! Then the man looked at me with a smirk and said: “Do you?” “You bet! But he forgot to tell you about the wine” “Really?” “Mummy time, baby”.

I believe I forgot to tell you that last week I finally built my bed. After almost 2 months of sleeping on the air mattress and sharing it with some of my kids, I decided it was time to sleep on a real bed.
It’s a very simple bed that I placed in my room in a way that everyone who saw it had something to say about it. I admit I chose the strangest spot, but I did it because this way, I’m facing the ceiling window. I can see the stars at night (3 nights in total because it’s always cloudy) and in the morning I can see the top of one pine tree and many times a bird on it.

This is the gorgeous view if I’m standing.

This below is the view of my bed now. 5 loads of wash on it. Today I had to do the “Find a Panty” game because the ones I unpacked where either dirty somewhere or in the pile. I found at least 8, so I will have that view (or worse) for a few more days. Do I feel ashamed about it? NO… I’d feel ashamed if I put that away to please someone else.

If you wonder about the pink thing on the right, it’s an epilator/trimmer, NOT an electric toothbrush.

I’m not showing the entire bedroom yet because I’m waiting for some items that I ordered online (the mirror for the ceiling, the black shades, the red lamps and the leopard bedsheets)… That was a joke!!! I’m not into animal print!!
