no good deed goes unpunished. I told you about how I helped my neighor setting up a website to market her jewelery design. It was fun and it was, at least for my part, meant to show her the ropes and how to take matters from there. Since Monday evening however, I now have a fequent visitor, asking...

I wouldn't have received a single birthday card, wishes, leave alone flowers or gifts. Everybody, but everybody just plain forgot! But instead of moaning and feeling sorry for myself, I had a chance to make a gift instead of receiving one. My neighbour, Cecilia, who is from Columbia and very nice,... Sign in to see full entry.

that swine flu is no longer making headlines? People are and fall still ill, but attention is diverted to other things. Like Amy Whinehouse booed off the stage in St. Lucia. Which of course is very, very important to know. What triggered this rather cynical post is, that I just read that you have... Sign in to see full entry.

But rather a reflection and recount of an experience on the theme: why should it be so difficult to take the frist step? What happened is this: I have very few family left, in fact only a cousin and her mother who is my father's sister. So, we are (on paper) close family. Some years ago, we had a...
