Day 18 and gardening

After 3 days of rain, snow, fog, and cold, it is spring again. The temperature was not officially very warm, but the sun was heating more than ever. So it was in this very nice afternoon that I made my first steps to gardening. I went first to do groceries, and I needed quite aContinue reading “Day 18 and gardening”

The furnace was down

The furnace went down Sunday evening. Monday: Bad luck, especially because in spite of having felt a bit of spring last Sunday, it is back to be winter again – it was snowing all day, and without heater, the house went down to 8 degrees C this evening… luckily I have a fire place, andContinue reading “The furnace was down”

E-dinner

I had my first official e-dinner tonight. It was part of an art project, and that’s probably why I felt involved and comitted. But it was also kind of weird, especially because they were in Australia, basically taken their mid-morning break when I was dinning. It took me some time before I could feel relaxed…Continue reading “E-dinner”

Meals – day 11

Staying home means that I need to eat at home – and alone. I have more access to the kitchen, so I better cook some healthy meals that I super enjoy. I sometimes think I will get bored and end up ordering from a restaurant (I was craving for Indian food few days ago andContinue reading “Meals – day 11”

Apprivoisement*

Today I listened to the nature around me. I mean, it is the first time that I could sit outside on the terrace for more than 5 min without freezing! It was 7 degrees Celsius but a bright and warm sun that warmed so much that I took out for the first time the outdoorContinue reading “Apprivoisement*”

Good morning (2)

Yesterday I was thinking of beginning to make the garden, asking to my colleagues at the end of our video conference which kind of plants would be easy to pick, which nursery to buy from etc. Today it is snowing! Not much but no wonder the nurseries are still closed, and everybody told me toContinue reading “Good morning (2)”

Food to enjoy

It is better to enjoy the food if you stay home, and to enjoy to make the food too! I made few dishes over these days, so that I am no really tired or bored about eating – one of the good reasons to eat chips or other snacks otherwise… So here it is: AContinue reading “Food to enjoy”

Day 4

It’s been four days that I had no direct contact with anybody. And no direct conversation other than teleconference or Skype. It is just strange…. I will need to make a tour at the supermarket soon and I am actually looking forward to it. The weather was extremely nice. The light was bright, the sunContinue reading “Day 4”

Spring ?

The weather is rather warm these days oscillating between -3 and +8 degrees Celcius. We also just change the time in our time zone, and it feels like we are more in harmony with our environment. Ideal for social distancing! And as a matter of fact, it seems like Mother Nature feels like it isContinue reading “Spring ?”
