In Which the Blog reach 950 posts! A lovely Holiday Season approaches!

Good morning, my dear friend, and I wish you a happy Wednesday! How are you, this fine hour? As for me, I am okay, just waking up, really. The weather here is one of quiet transition, to spring. I can still use thicker blankets, but the days are longer, and the sun is more bright. Not exactly a good thing, I don't like summer, that is approaching. The only saving grace is to have Christmas season also upon us, the season of 2026! And all the memories of happy summer vacations, with the christmas trees and the great deal of lovely santas around it. Grandma used to go all in for the decor. How I miss it... I pray I can emulate it, when I can. Today, grandma is 82 years old, she is aging, as it rarely can be helped. She is tired, and she lives in an apartment nowadays, as such, she does not do the Christmas stuff as vigorously as some years before, alas.  There is no such thing as forsaking the long holiday tradition just because "times changed", whatever that means. No. Jus...

In which we talk about the weather these days!

Hello everyone!!! Happy Wednesday to you!! How are you today and how are things going?? As usual, I wish you the best, and hope your day is being great so far! Thank you so much for being here!!
Have to say, I have this sensation September is passing pretty fast! Of course this is just an impression, but I do feel that way! How about you guys, do you feel the same way? I don't know, sometimes the time seems like it won't pass, sometimes it goes pretty fast, how crazy life is! 
So, today I went to college and had my class, and then I had some pizza for dinner, because pizza is the best thing ever, of course! I had some headache, but I managed to take my medication and I'm feeling better now, headaches sucks so much, it's so terrible! I always have at least one per month, hope this headache was my last one this September! And here I am, writing this post!
The weather is being unpredictable these days! Like I said, I didn't have too much rain this winter, which is heartbreaking, but at least this week I'm experiencing something bizarre, like sometimes the day starts really hot, and then out of nowhere it starts to rain!!! The clouds come in and the water starts to fall, out of nowhere! But then, the clouds fade away, and the heat comes back even stronger than before! This rain/heat mood is the perfect enviroment for mosquitoes! It's kind of a mosquito season now, it's so sad, but it will pass soon, nothing some extra clothes (in spite of the heat) and some insect spray can't solve!
Today I just wanted to make a really quick post to check on you guys and see how are things going! And just to talk a little about the weather too! I'm sad winter is going away and Summer season is about to strike, but hey, with summer it comes Christmas, my favorite season will be here soon enough, something that makes me happy, though I'm not necessarily in a hurry to finish up this year of 2018, like I said, things seem to be passing quickly enough, why rush it even more? 
I also wanted to share this painting with you guys, by the famous Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890)! I like him a lot! 


This is part of a series he did, which is called "Wheat Field with Cypresses"! It's a series of 3 very simmilar paintings he did on wheat fields! I love how ondulated and strong this is, it pleases me a lot, it's like it's moving! It's filled with energy!! This is something I appreciate a lot on a painting! I grew to like Van Gogh a lot, I should make a post on him soon!!
So that's it for today, dear reader! Thank you so much for being here, you're the best!!! Hopefully we see each other next time!! Also, forgot to mention, this month my blog had its 3 month of existence anniversary! This makes me so happy! Hopefully I'll be able to keep posting for quite a while more, thank you so much for reading!
