 2013
A new year and the days are flying so fast.
Wonderful times with my friend J. We have a friendship that is so
special and wonderful. We know each other almost 30 years now. I am too
busy with my work and don't get that much satisfaction.
Somehow it is harder to play the harp. Somehow my
fingers don't follow the music notes that good. But I didn't practice
so well. I give up easily.
2013 what will it bring? I hope I write more but so
far no adding lines on stories. I hope to follow this webset more.
Rooting on solid ground and visiting trees more. They are my roots to
Mother Earth and the dreams of the sky.
This is so great. Please click here (will open in a new window) and listen to
this message.
Februari starts with the flu for
me. My head has a headache and I feel musclepain. On the internet it
tells my body makes white
blood cells to fight the flu and the concentration on spots in my body
let me feel the muscle pain. In my body there is a war going.

After
a cold I found the willows on meadows with their feet into icewater. It
is cold. Snow rests are still found and only sheep and ponies are
outside in the winter.
Everything
is allright with Sita. She is scared at the frist time and thinks then
she doesnt have any reason. But it is so in her systhem. Buffy my other
cat doesnt like her.
March 24
It is so cold here in the Netherlands now.
Freezing, with a very cold eastern wind. Only the snowdrops (here below
from my garden) are blooming when the sun is shining.
The morning star of flowers.
- James
Montgomery, Snow-Drop
Lone Flower, hemmed in with snows and white
as they
But hardier far, once more I see thee bend
Thy forehead, as if fearful to
offend,
Like an
unbidden guest. Though day by day,
Storms,
sallying from the mountain tops, waylay
The
rising sun, and on the plains descend;
Yet
art thou welcome, welcome as a friend
Whose
zeal outruns his promise!
- William
Wordsworth, To a Snow-Drop
At the head of Flora's dance;
Simple Snow-drop, then in thee
All thy sister-train I see;
Every
brilliant bud that blows,
From the blue-bell to the rose;
All the beauties that appear,
On the bosom of the Year,
All
that wreathe the locks of Spring,
Summer's
ardent breath perfume,
Or
on the lap of Autumn bloom,
All
to thee their tribute bring.
- James
Montgomery, Snow-Drop
Nor will I then thy modest grace
forget,
Chaste Snow-drop, venturous harbinger of Spring,
And pensive monitor of fleeting
years!
- William
Wordsworth, To a Snow-Drop
I so like them. They are beautiful. Glad to
say I have many of them living in my garden!
April 6
Today I visit some
special trees in the area around Roosendaal in the Netherlands
And was visiting a
little but oh so beautiful shopping area where it was so beautiful. I
so like it! 
Then it was time
for ABBA. The ABBA fanclub day in a danceplace in Roosendaal
 
All kinds of ABBA
stuff you can buy and rare videoparts was shown.
Tired and with my
head full I drove home and came this old army plane above me in the sky

The beautiful creator Storm
Thorgerson died of cancer on age 70. He did wonderful covers for Pink
Floyd. Here some of his art
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
Lately
I went everywhere.
I
just visit some old trees, and wonderful places. Right now a lot of new
trees and some old friends are coming on my dutch tree website.
Almost
from one day to another I lost my job and that feels so strange, after
years without any holiday.
Now
I am almost 50 and trying to live day by day. There is hardly any work
left and I am too old and too expensive I think. So right now I live in
free and it is getting time to step out of it and trying to find a job
again.
Enjoying
art and wonderful flowers. Going out with my friends. Meeting different
places and feeling alive again.
July
For a while now I don't write any longer to my
English story on this site. Somehow I am too busy with other computer
things. I hope I pick up the story again. The persons are still living
in me and I am not forgetting them!
July 30
After seeing The Wall
with Roger Waters I am looking Pink Floyd again and seeing the concert
from 1994, 19 years ago now! I was there in the Netherlands and it was
so great and magical. I watched it and saw what I forget and forget
what I saw. Pink Floyd, what a music! What a group!
August 1
Sometimes you dont
have to travel to see something new, it is around the corner and you
never knew it...
That I had with this
castle
Our frog is for some years now in our garden.
Sometimes it show itself while sunbathing on the rocks but more often
you hear him somewhere hiding under the green
Sita has found her place here and still Buffy my
black and white cat doesn't agree with her living here so they will not
be good friends. But both has a place here and still they bring a lot
of time outside even in the rain but then again, our place
has still a good napping places to get the rest for the cats.
Autumn Arrived
Yes, Autumn is arrived.
Some late flowers and
some asters are flowering and leaves turns into red and brown and
yellow colours.
Fall
Ballet
In fall the leaves
are dancing
In the newly cool, crisp breeze,
Tumbling, skipping, flipping,
As they throw themselves from trees.
Twirling, whirling
dancers,
Give performances each day,
Floating gracefully to earth,
In a circular ballet.
And as they land
together,
Making not a sound,
They form a comfy quilt,
For the cooling winter ground.
By Joanna
Fuchs
The coverband ABBAmania was here in the
netherlands and I was enjoying the show. Unfortunally the homepage is gone. But the group gave a
wonderful show and Frida from this group was very energic. Agnetha
makes a great performence with Ive been waiting for you. And the
bassplayer Pablo Robers loves making ABBA music and it was great to see
that.
Novembertime
Just
prepared this homepage for 2014. New diary, new reading list...
For days
I was thinking I made a kind of blog here but I choose for a
different one on http://worldofregina.wordpress.com/
Never thought I blogged too. But I do.
But I
love to write in my diary so that part I keep!
The day before Christmas
I am writing this the
day before christmas. I did a lot of work ahead so I can relax and eat
at christmas day. The second one I work and work the clock round. But
now, the day before christmas starts I toast to you and me and ask:
what are you highlights in 2013 and the dark moments in 2013?
Have a good time and
please thinking of some people and animals who has not a good life!
December 31
And now the last
hours of 2013 is here...
Wish you a great and
wonderful 2014 and I hope you will smile when you think of 2013...
Happy New Year
