Les fabuleux paysages des Alpes

Hello tous le monde ! Nous n'avons pas pu voyager comme on le souhaiter cette année malheureusement avec cette crise sanitaire de la Covid-19, mais il faut l'admettre cette année on a été gâté par les paysages que nous offrais que la nature. Nous vous mettons quelques photos de certains coucher de soleil que nous avons pu observer et photographier cette année, et quelle bonheur ! Je me lasse pas de les revoir.. la couleur, la beauté, le tourisme, les voyages que nous faisons, c'est tellement enrichissant. Ces photos sont prises au plan d'eau d'Embrun dans les Hautes-Alpes, bien sûr…

Reach Your 500th Blog Post Today

Thank you, Wordpress, for this reminder! After blogging for awhile, milestones were more and more difficult to reach. But, I didn't let that bother me much, I just kept writing. To those who thought that they ran out of topics to write, just write from the heart! If I had to scrutinize every single topic before writing, I honestly doubt that I would have anything posted. That's why I chose to be a general lifestyle blog from the beginning. I needed my own little corner of the writing world to put my thoughts into writing. As an Empath, I would…

How to get back into blogging after a break! 🍋

Hi everyone! ❤️ Today's post was one of the first I thought of writing back when I announced a return date to blogging after my break 🤣. It seemed fitting to acknowledge what has helped me get to this point because in and around flare-ups of my chronic pain I did find it tricky to get back into the flow of writing. On mornings when I woke up feeling well I'd be like "right! I'm going to get this, that and the other things on my list done" (never have I ever been one for pacing 🙈😂) but then as…

November monthly wrap‑up✨ + WINTER blog redesign!🧣🌨️

Psst.. for the best aesthetic visuals, click here! (And to see my winter blog redesign 😉) Welcome or welcome back! Today is the day before the first day of the last month of 2020!

Not sure if that's a Pro or con.🤷‍♀️ and, December is my second favourite month! (After August) Here are some reasons why; It's a WINTER month! I just…

Another Year Wiser, or so They say

I awake this morning feeling nothing out of the ordinary except for the stream of messages pinging on my phone. They are sweet and warm my heart like no other. Birthdays are a way to remind people in your life that they do, indeed, love you. Anyway, here’s a note I wrote in my phone several years ago and still continue to feel this way about December. What is it about December that makes it such an enchanting time of the year? Perhaps it's the promise of joy, and snow, and cozy nights by the fire sipping decadent hot chocolate…

Pigne per Natale.

A fine novembre di solito mi prende la voglia di creare qualcosa con le mie mani per abbellire la mia casa in vista del Natale. Mi piace molto dedicarmici e trovo che mai come quest'anno abbiamo tutti bisogno di ricreare l'atmosfera di calore famigliare anche se le famiglie saranno ridotte a pochi intimi... Questa volta mi sono affidata alle pigne raccolte nei boschi: ne ho decorate alcune secondo l'estro del momento. Chi ha tempo non aspetti tempo, no? Pine Cones for Christmas. I have already started decorating my home in the hues and tones of Christmas. I like it and…

The content(edness) calendar‑Day 1

Twenty-twenty: it sounds like a comforting number, there is a 2 and then a 0, then again, and you think that you know what is coming your way. I am sure that for most of us it has been a very different year: the luckiest ones can only complain about getting bored to be stuck at home, while other people unfortunately have more serious reasons to hate this year. You see, the thing is: we often forget how lucky we are, how grateful we should be, how much love surrounds us. It is easy to get grumpy over your horrible…

Why Gratitude Is So Important & 500 Followers!?

It's the day after Thanksgiving (if you live in the US) & typically it's a day to be thankful & blessed for the life you have. I believe you should have this sense of gratitude everyday. Why? Because once I shifted my mindset to a more grateful one, I saw my life in a more positive light. I’d like to first thank you all for 500 followers! 😊🎉 My goal was to maybe hit this milestone before Blogmas & I had no idea we would get there before then. So, thank you! If it weren’t for my readers & fellow…

The Week In Seven Photos

Some days it can be an uphill struggle finding something to laugh about, but luckily Harper has been very entertaining while wondering why we've been leaving the house by sunrise every day the last few weeks. The wildlife have also been very suspicious about why I was hiding out in the woods with them. They understood once I told them the reason for my companionship was a remodeling project, that was contracted in May and finally began this month, and that it's best if I stay clear of home since my supervisory skills do not appear to be appreciated by…

Zabarmari: Cameroonian Military Commanders Visit Borno As Governor Considers Mercenaries

A top delegation of the Cameroonian Armed Forces on Thursday visited the Borno State Government House, Maiduguri, and met with the state governor, Prof Babagana Zulum, over Saturday's gruesome massacre of at least 70 rice farmers in Zabarmari community.

[ad_1] What are the elements of a healthy, active lifestyle? A: The building blocks of a healthy, active lifestyle include nutrition, exercise, good sleep hygiene, and mental and spiritual health.

Compulsion and An Elegy on the Death of a Mad Dog

This post is written out of the compulsion. The compulsion to pick up from where I last left. This post is basically like an ice-breaker, to help me to start posting once again. I haven't been feeling creative in a really long while now, so I've mostly spent my time analysing and observing. There is nothing new in this post, I'm just sharing one of my all time favourite poems, An Elegy on the Death of a Mad Dog written by Irish novelist and poet Oliver Goldsmith. An Elegy on the Death of a Mad Dog Good people all, of…

Not all the same: There are some hand sanitizers the FDA says consumers should avoid using. Here's the full list.

(NEXSTAR) — If the option to wash hands isn't available, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends hand sanitizer is an acceptable back in the sanitation fight against COVID-19. With the rise in coronavirus cases across the United States, the federal Food and Drug Administration has noted a simultaneous increase in the number of hand sanitizer products being made — but not all of them are made the same, which, in some cases, can be life-threatening. Since August, the FDA has been adding to a list of hand sanitizer products and companies who have manufactured sanitizer that is "labeled…
