Hello my sweet friends. Spring is officialy here since we're in March, but the weather definitely looks like winter.... ok, maybe not a heavy, cold winter... but definitely not spring! Are you confused? So am I! Well March happens to be the most confusing and unexpected month of the year. March is also the month I was born! No comments on that one, please... Actually is the month of birthdays in my family since me, my husband and my father in law we all have our birthdays in March!
Unfortunately it's been raining three days in a row and although it was a long weekend here in Greece with Monday a day off everybody stayed indoors... what a pity! With the weather matching my mood completely and my soul crying for a reason... or many reasons.... I spent the weekend at home with my husband relaxing, watching movies on TV (we also rent the "Malavita" DVD with Robert de Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer which was good enough), watching the carnival in many Greek -and not only- towns, surfing the internet, reading... and sleeping... a lot.
After this... exciting, but necessary cocooning Tuesday has arrived and guess what??... Sun came out of the clouds bright and magnificent to warm our hearts and spread the happiness... but I still feel cold and my mind is so full of worrying thoughts...
Time will show, only time and some action...Hey, look, the sun is smiling, let's smile too, it's not that difficult!

Thank you so much for reading,
I'm so happy and grateful I have five wonderful followers at bloglovin,
thanks so much for your appreciation!
Love you all,
xoxo, Elena

Hello my friends. "Christos Anesti", many happy returns to everybody! I wish you all to be healthy and happy! I'm so sorry I skiped this Mondays' weekly links, but I was so happily busy with all that Easter preparations and I really didn't find the time to write...and to be pretty honest... I really wanted to dedicate my time and my love to friends and family, because I believe they need it the most. We had five days of Easter holiday here in Greece this year, which is pretty long time and it was really  wonderful. Lots of rest, lots of food, lots of togetherness, lots of love.... we all need these moments  from time to time. But I didn't forget you!

The first month of 2013 belongs to the past, already! Welcome February, and.., shall I say welcome spring? Because the day yesterday was so sunny and hot, I thought spring is coming!
