Yesterday I was a little too much into my PMS. It was my day off but I had a terrible headache, the office called me to ask to work today (that was another day off) and I looked around and the house was horribly untidy.... had to iron my legendary pile of clothes and the gardens were not at their best. At the same time I have this thought to my wedding and I still have to finish to embroid the candy-box for the guests. I was feeling fat, swallen and ugly. And last but not least I'm getting worried for the term of my job-contract. But I guess this happens to some other women too!
So I talked to Andrea a couple of times on the phone and I was putting a little pressure on him because I was feeling I am the one who has to do all the things and bla bla bla.... (but I guess this happens to other women too!)....
So I cleaned the house, had a long phone chit- chat with a friend, ironed the clothes and embroided a little.... but I cried from time to time. I felt tired.
After work Andrea went to the swimming pool and then he went to the grocery store and came back home. It was past 8pm.
He went to the kitchen and closed the door.... after some 40mins... he came out with this delicious dinner: toasted bread cut in shapes (he used biscuits shapes of hearts and stars) with a small 'bundle' of prosciutto fulfilled with little balls of melon and tied together with chive.
Then a big salad and more melon (which I love). Oops I forgot the roasted peppers..... hummmmyh
It was a balm for my heart and spirit!
But isn't it wonderful that my heart melts down for a plate of good food and that it is so easy to get relieved by those generous acts?
Isn't it silly to spend so much energies to be worried and angry?
Would it be easier to be open to the events of life and just let it be?
I should always remember, always, also during my PMS, that God has the power and Love is the solution.

Are you going to Greece?
Yes, Sarah, we're going to Greece for our honeymoon. We'll spend 4 nights in Athen and 8 in Santorini. We have the flight tickets but still have to book the hotels. We're excited to travel again.:-)
Oooooh! That sounds fabulous.
My sister stayed in Santorini for a couple days when she visited Europe and came back with some wonderful photos -- I hope you take your camera!
