To in ono / This and that

Bolj ko razmišljam, manj besed najdem s katerimi bi začela prvo objavo v novem letu. Novo leto... novo... vse novo... nov koledar, nov začetek, nove obljube, zaobljube... pa vendar sem bila vesela, ko so se po praznikih dnevi vrnili v stare utečene, predvidljive tire. 

Prvega januarja sem razmišljala o novoletnih zaobljubah. Čeprav jih imam rada in se mi zdi simpatično dati nek okvir novemu letu, sem si za letos izbrala moto. Ničesar si ne bom obljubljala, ničesar zapovedovala, rada bi le, da bi se mi v možgane vtisnilo naslednje:

KEEP CALM 

AND 

CARRY ON

z vsemi variacijami na temo seveda

KEEP CALM AND CROCHET ON

KEEP CALM AND SMILE ON

KEEP CALM AND CARRY YARN

KEEP CALM AND EAT CHOCOLATE

 ...

More I try to think of a smart words to start this first post of the year, emptier my head is. New Year... new start... new calendar... new resolutions... new... everything is new... I like those new beginnings... but I also like when days - after week of celebrations returns to their old predictable ways. Early morning starts of the day, school, morning with my Little B, afternoons with all my kids... but the freshness of New Year is here!

I'm not going to write my New Year resolutions this year... I'm not making them... I have chosen a motto for myself this year and all the others that will follow. 

KEEP CALM 

AND 

CARRY ON

with all variations

KEEP CALM AND CROCHET ON

KEEP CALM AND SMILE ON

KEEP CALM AND CARRY YARN

KEEP CALM AND EAT CHOCOLATE

 Kvačkanje napreduje... vrstica za vrstico, pa je jopica pripravljena, da jo sešijem skupaj. V delu imam že mali brezrokavniček. Zaenkrat kvačkam brez vzorcev, ampak letos bi se rada posvetila tudi njim. Nekaj poskusnih kvadratkov sem že naredila.

When I have time, I crochet. Row after row and lovely simple cardigan is almost ready to put on.

In to, drage moje, je naš posvojenec. Kar izgubljeni smo bili brez Arota in tišina, ki je ostala za njim, je bila grozljiva. 

Groma smo vsi takoj sprejeli in tudi on je med nami, kot bi bil že od nekdaj tu (kot je rekla gospodična N).

And this is our adopted giant. The silence that has settled around our home after Aro died was  scary, horrifying. So my parents went to the dog shelter and Grom (Thunder in English) was there. Now he is ours and we are his.

Še nekaj. 

Drobtinice praznujejo rojstni dan.

V naslednji objavi vas čaka presenečenje.

Do takrat...

At the end...

My little blog Drobtinice had a birthday few days ago.

I'm planning a little giveaway in my next post.

Until then...
