But the picture :) Just like last year, I looked for some empty glass jars to decorate and place a small candle in (waxinelichtje). Advent. Commemorating that the Light of the world stepped down into darkness. As a means of living more consciously towards Christmas. It's special to know that the Light of the world understands the above kind of frustration. Because He stepped down right into it. But oh, this is easier to write than to feel!!!
Yep, it's Monday. Remember, the bike was coming today. (oh wow, I'm totally blogging more often these days, haha) SO. The new and improved green flash, which apparently is going to be a black flash, was to come. I got up early enough to be totally ready at nine. And waited. Nine, ten, eleven, twelve, one... Between nine and one 'they' were supposed to come. After some (slightly frustrated) phoning, someone came around two, a time right in the middle of my siësta. But for a new green flash, you're willing to sacrifice some sleep right. Well. At two a mister came, with some parts for the new bike. But... with no bike. "Isn't it here yet?!" Apparently another organisation was supposed to have brought it, and they just simply... didn't. Without informing anyone. It's coming on Friday. Supposedly. On the down side, I am SO dependent on this bike, and these switches in plans are very difficult to handle. On the bright side, that means I can bring some more Christmas joy to Amsterdam with my scootmobiel.

Mattanja OosterhuisHaving grown up in diverse places on earth, I suppose I've learned to make the best of what comes my way. Such as a hemorrhage. After this bleeding in my head occurred in dec. 2010, my life has come to look different. On my blog I write about some of this. Archives
