Update from Belgium

Wooh, so much has happened since my last post! I’m back in Belgium and it feels sooooo good! The weather has been amazing since I arrived; although it’s clouding up now, it’s still warm enough to wear Summer clothes. I’m back in mom’s house now (= the coziest place on Earth).

And here’s a late picture from May Day, with the traditional May flowers (I believe we only do this in Belgium and France … or something …?):

May Day

Jack survived his flight! Yay! It was such a stressful process, I’m not sure I ever want to do this again. All went smoothly though, but it was too nerve wracking for me. I basically cried when they took him away (LOL), so embarrassing! A Delta employee came over to console me, and I felt like such a baby. When they saw how worried I was, I think they started worrying about a possible lawsuit in case anything went wrong (which one lady even admitted after we landed!); so they gave me real time updates throughout the whole trip lolĀ  I thought he was going to need time to adapt to this new environment, but it went like a charm and he actually seems to have a lot of fun here. So now we’re both upstairs in our cozy clutter:

I’ve been so busy since I got here! I’d like to get my own place, because I’m starting to feel like I’m bumming off my mom every time I come lol So I’ve been house hunting like crazy, and I have to say it is a frustrating process. I fell in love with one house, but the sellers are divorcing, and the ex-husband doesn’t seem too willing to sell, so it’s basically a huge headache and it looks like the sale might just be stopped because of their issues. Sucks!! Just my luck too. It has been a frustrating couple of weeks (mainly because of that), so I’ve treated myself to a new hair cut:

It feels sooooooo short to me! Ah! A couple of people told me it basically looks the same, which I don’t understand because it clearly does not. Or does it? Hmmfff. Anyway, I’m happy with it, so that’s all that matters, right? Right!

Oh yeah, before I forget: I know some of you have been e-mailing me and calling me to meet up in Brussels and stuff, and I haven’t had time to get back to most of you yet (I’m sounding like such a broken record, it’s embarrassing). Soooo, I apologize again. I really really do! And I will definitely catch up in the next couple of weeks or so! So thanks to those who have contacted me as soon as I arrived, I definitely appreciate it and will get in touch very soon! Hugggggs!

    “The weather has been amazing since I arrived”

    That’s funny, last month I went to the US (New York and New Orleans) and it was a total climate shock since it was actually warm and sunny right after it stopped raining. New Orleans was more of a city-wide sauna :-)

    Anyway it’s been waaaaaay too long since I’ve visited your. Glad You’re still alive and kicking.
