Dedicata a...

Questa la dedico ad una certa personcina molto speciale, che sta in una pancia altrettanto speciale...La dedico alla sopraccitata personcina e alla sua mamma e papa': quando il mio regalo di compleanno si fara' vivo, sara' un giorno davvero speciale, il primo di una nuova vita! okokok...forse non tutte le parole si adattano alla circostanza, ma se ripenso a quando e' nata la MSGP, non posso negare che quel giorno e' stato il primo della mia vita attuale...

Le parole sono nella parte inglese...

This is dedicated to a very special little person, for now all cuddled up in a very special belly...it's dedicated to that little person and the mummy and daddy to-be: when my birthday present will arrive, it will be a very special day, the first day of a new life! okokok...maybe not all the words match the circumstance, but when I think back to the day MFSJ was born, I can't deny that it was indeed the first day of my life as it is now...

as usual...I can't resist it: here's the words for the singalong...


This is the first day of my life
I Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain
Suddenly everything changed
They're spreadin' blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I Think I was blind before I met you
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go
So I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

I remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange
You said everything changed
You felt as if you just woke up
And you said,
This is the first day of my life,
I'm Glad I didn't die before I met you
But now I don't care I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy.

So if you wanna be with me
With these things there's no telling
We'll just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery

Besides maybe this time it's different
I mean I really think you like me...

Snow snow everywhere...

another day indoors?
snow snow everywhere
let's paint leaves on the floor.



Sammy, eat your heart out!
last sunday we woke up to yet another day of snow. It would have been nice and romantic to stay under the duvet...after all, when MFJ and I started dating, it used to snow everytime we met (no kidding, even in april)...but MFSJ is in that wonderful age when just waking up to the world is a joy, even at 3am! so we kicked the duvet, and got the day started.
At 10 am we were already done with all the chores and were getting slightly bored...so I finally put hands to the "paint a crust project"...

I think we got ourselves a nice S.Valentine's present. I also got complimented for "my talent in education and making life wonderful"...although I have to split the merit 50/50 with dear husband in this case!
Someone suggested to flog the double-crust, someone else cunningly commented on the possible Gauguin-like influences, and there is also one crazy admirer who would like to book one of our future works...not a bad idea, in fact: MFSJ is loving her paintbrushes more than ever, and our walls are already full, so foster-homes for our masterpieces would be great. Volunteers anyone? you can suggest a theme, a palette of colors and the size of the canvas...


Samuele, crepa pure di invidia!
Domenica scorsa ci siamo svegliati con la neve. Ancora. sarebbe stato bello restare al calduccio, sotto le coperte... dopotutto, agli albori della nostra love story (mia e del MGP) nevicava ogni volta che avevamo appuntamento (non sto scherzando: si mise a nevicare pure in APRILE)...dicevo...il calduccio delle coperte...ma la MSGP e' in quella meravigliosa eta' in cui svegliarsi e' una gioia, anche alle 3 del mattino...cosi' abbiamo buttato all'aria le coperte e abbiamo avviato la giornata. alle 10 ci stavamo gia' annoiando, cosi' ho finalmente messo mano al progetto "dipingi una crosta"...

Ne e' uscito un bel regalo di S. valentino, formato famiglia. Mi sono anche arrivati i complimenti per il mio "talento nell' educare e nel rendere la vita una cosa fantastica"...anche se qui il merito va diviso equalmente con il maritino, almeno in questo caso!
Qualcuno ha suggerito di mettere all'asta questa doppia-crosta, qualcun altro ha commentato sull'ispirazione Gauguininana dell'opera, e un ammiratore pazzo vorrebbe prenotare uno dei nostri futuri lavori...a pensarci bene, non e' una brutta idea: la MSGP e' innamoratissima dei pennelli, ma i nostri muri sono gia' pieni, quindi case adottive per i nostri capolavori sarebbero davvero un ottima soluzione. ci sono volontari? potete suggerire un tema di vostro gradimento, una scala cromatica che si intoni alla vostra carta da parati, e le dimensioni della tela...
