We started our Saturday with our final TO DO list before we move to the new house. We had 2 big itens to get done: buy the water heater and all the lamps shades.
We DID IT!!
I am so happy and so relieved at the same time!!
So, on Friday our things that are in storage since October will be delivered and on Saturday we will be starting the unpacking.
I will take a lot of pictures and I will post soon. I am not sure I will have time to post this week, because besides all this moving movement I will be working around the clock in S*ã*o P*a*u*l*o….. But I will try it.
Have a nice week,
Fabiola

I...
... was supposed to be flying home, but due to IT environmental problems, I am still in R*I*O D*E J*A*N*E*I*R*O. Boy, computers (especially the server kind) can be very temperamental. But the IT Fairy passed by and everything is under control now.
I am back in my hotel room full of work to get done by tomorrow morning. I still have to pack to go home and the To Do list is just getting bigger.
Well, the good news is I found a after-construction cleaning company. It will take 2 days for them to clean my new house. So I won some time to find a housekeeper to help me. I know it looks like a luxury to most of my readers. But, when you have to travel almost every week, work 12 hours a day…it is a luxury I will have the pleasure to afford to myself.
But changing subjects, I am looking for a new book to read. I will stop by the bookstore at the airport tomorrow to buy something new.
Have a nice day,
Fabiola

Gardens and Backyards
I never was a Green thumb kind of girl, but I always liked flowers and foliages.
I´ve wondering around the internet and I found Cielo´s Blog. She hosted a Garden Party last week. What wonderful place and inspiration I found.
After one year, when we are really camping instead of living, I cannot wait to have my own backyard again. I already have the picture of my future backyard in my mind and I do hope I can finish its project by the end of the year.
Have a nice Tuesday,
Fabiola

Too many little things
I’ve been so out of the blog world or the mundane world for that matter.
I am feeling overwhelmed with all that is going on in my life. My mind is just filled with a few major issues:
1. Keep my sanity, due to a lot of stress at work;
2. Find a housekeeper to help me to clean the new house;
3. Get everything ready for the big move on 4th of July;
· We still have to do a few items before we move. We do have to decide the lightning thing. We already went to a few store but we didn´t find everything we liked and that fitted in our budget.
· My dear husband cannot make up his mind about the water heater. He already has like 10 types of water heater and he is still researching.
· Yesterday, we talked to a lady who works with blinds, curtains and wall papers. She has everything we want but this is not our priority…. So she will have to wait ; )
4. And last but not least…. The problem with my jaw is back in full swing. I’ve been having a lot of pain. So I could finally stay a week in S*ã*o P*a*u*l*o and I went to a specialist in this kind of problem.
After she pressed a lot of points in my head, face, neck, upper back and arms, she asked:
Doctor: Are you feeling a little irritated, or feeling that everyone is annoying you?
Me: YES!! I am with no patience these past few weeks and I am in a lot of pain.
Doctor: In the pain scale, you ranked around 7/7,5. I don’t know how you are handling all this pain only with over the counter Tylenol. I will prescribe something stronger for a shock treatment, heat pad for 40minutes on each side of your face and weekly meeting with a physical therapy, because we have to get rid of this pain.
So I left her office with my prescription and I can tell you, that after a week of medication, heat pads and 2 meeting with a physical therapist I am feeling much better.
Well, I off to pack my bag because I am off to R*i*o tomorrow morning.
Have a nice evening,
Fabiola

Feliz Dia dos Namorados, Meu Amor!!!
Paulo,
Meu eterno namorado !
Cada dia que estamos juntos, nosso amor fica mais forte e nós ficamos mais unidos.Só nós sabemos as dificuldades que enfrentamos para conseguir chegar até aqui. Poucos festejaram nosso amor como ele deveria ter sido festejado, mas nós acreditamos nos nossos corações e seguimos em frente de cabeça erguida e aqui estamos muito tempo depois provando que estávamos certos.
Feliz Dia dos Namorados para nós
Amo muito você
