I miss him & I think about him a lot

No, I'm not talking about a boy. I'm talking about a dog. His name was Charli and he became a member of our family long time ago. I was just a little girl, when that little creature came into my life. 

About ten years later he got sick. Very sick. He had a surgery, but it only helped him for a short while. Than the disease was back. This time even stronger and that poor brave man cooped with it for as long as he could. Until one day he couldn't even walk any more. Vet told us she can't do much and that we would just make him suffer even more. 

So he went with other dogie angels. And when I look at Luna sometimes I can't help myself thinking about him. Would they be friends? Would he accept her? Oh man, they are such an opposites in some parts, but they are / were the best friend a person can have in his life. 

{Charli}


And I do miss him. His funny looking black eye and his free spirit. He was something else. 

I just wish they could live together, since they could teach each-other so so much. I truly believe in that. But I guess if Charli ever met Luna, he would become too much of a princess. ;) And he never pulled so many puppy-eyes-looks on us (in all those ten years) compared to her living with us for only two years. 

{Luna}

They are different, but still ... the best dogs you have ever met! 

Does anyone have a tissue?? :'(  :)

Pogrešam ga & veliko mislim nanj

Če je kdo pomislil na kakšnega fanta - NOUP. Teh ne pogrešam, ni potrebe po pogrešanju. ;) Pogrešam pa Charlija. Našega psa, ki ga že nekaj let ni več z nami. Bila sem precej majhna še, ko je prišel v našo družino in postal pomemben del nje. 

Kakšnih 10 let kasneje pa se je začelo. Bolezen, ki ga je doletela ga je počasi a zagotovo uničevala. Prvo operacijo je uspešno prestal, vendar se je zahrbtna bolezen vrnila in žal ni bilo več smisla ponovno operirati, ker bi mu samo daljšali trpljenje in bolečine. 

In je odšel. Sama še vedno rada verjamem v pasja nebesa. Tako je lažje, kot pa misliti na  to, da ga ni nikjer več. Še je tam - lovi druge pse in se igra ... v pasjih nebesih. 

Včasih pogledam Luno in pomislim kako bi se razumela, če bi bil Charli še z nami. Bi bila prijatelja? Bi jo Charli sprejel? Kljub temu, da sta popolni nasprotji sta vsak na svoj način najboljša pasja prijatelja, ki jih lahko človek ima v življenju. 
Drug od drugega bi se zagotovo ogromno naučila. Ona bi njega naučila kako biti mala razvajena princesa, ona pa njo vseh svojih trikov, ki jih je poznal. 

Tako različna, pa kljub vsemu ... najboljša psa kar jih je svet videl. In ne - nisem nagnjena k pretiravanjem. ;)

My confession

Ok, this isn’t such a big deal (since I’m pretty sure that a lot of people do this same exact thing) but whatever … I don?t know why, but I feel so bad about it sometimes.

You are probably asking yourself “what the heck is she going to write down now?!”

Well I regularly shop in children section … still … and I am more than 20 years old. I do shop (most of the time) in woman section, but I fit in all children sizes too (obviously not in size for 8 years old child – I do need a bit more “grown up” clothes).

And this Friday – when we went shopping (AGAIN, please don?t hate me – you know how much I LOVE shopping) I bought a dress, a blouse and two pairs of ballerinas on children department. And everything looks so great (adult) – I don?t have any cartoon characters on it or something like that. I did try to find pictures on web, but had no luck with it. But I promise I will show you those things when I’ll wear them.

Last year I also bought few summer things (dresses, jumpsuit, trousers) and they were my absolute favorite summer thing to wear. So easy and light! Perfect for hot summer walks with Luna!

So this is my confession … but don’t expect from me to stop doing it. I’ll for sure do it again, because I like it. :))

MOJE PRIZNANJE

Ok, to verjetno niti ni tako zelo pomembno priznanje – glede na to, da veliko ljudi to počne, najbrž niti nisem tako zelo osamljen primerek. Ali pač?? ;)

No pa dajmo … redno nakupujem na otroškem oddelku. Tale *redno* pomeni – da v vsaki sezoni kupim vsaj par kosov na otroškem oddelku + seveda še veliko stvari na oddelku za “tavelike” ljudi. :) Seveda se ne tlačim v obleke namenjene 5 letnemu otroku (nisem anoreksična niti približno, da ne bo pomote), ampak oblečem tiste namenjene 14 (včasih 16) letnim deklicam. Številke so ravno pravšnje zame – prednost tega, da ti je mati narava namenila le nekaj več kot 160 cm v višino. :)

In ta petek – priznam, spet sem bila v trgovini; ne morem si pomagati!!!! – sem spet zašla na otroški oddelek. Jaaaiiiksss! Napaka!! Ker imajo toliko lepih stvari, da se jim težko upreš. In je z menoj domov romala ena oblekica, pa ena srajčka in dvoje balerinke!! Aleluja za otroški oddelek, ki me je tako dobro opremil! :)) Po tem sem nehala gledati, ker bi 1000% našla še kaj. Pa sem se uprla in uspešno prišla do blagajne le s parimi kosi. ;) Napredek je očiten!

Kaj točno sem kupila vam žal še ne morem pokazati, ker fotografij teh izdelkov (še) ni (ali pa jih sploh en bo) na spletu. Ne vem. Očitno jih bom morala sama poslikati in vam jih pokazati. Saj bi že danes, pa je vse v pranju (razen čevljev, seveda).

Lani sem kupila kar nekaj čudovito lahkih poletnih izdelkov (na otroškem oddelku seveda) in nosila sem jih dobesedno celo poletje! Kljub ne-vem-kolikim-ogromnim številom poletnih stvari, sem jaz hodila naokoli (doma in na sprehodih z Luno) oblečena v ene in iste (otroške) obleke. Stvari naredijo tako zelo lahke, da niti ne veš da jih nosiš – in to je to kar jaz cenim, ko je zunaj +45 stopinj ti pa se veselo sprehajaš s psom naokrog. ;)

Tako, to je moje priznanje; ki pa ne pomeni, da se bodo stvari spremnile. Niti približno. Jaz in en kup deklic iz vrtca bomo še vedno tu pa tam isto oblečene. Samo malo lažje mi je, sedaj, ko vsi to veste. :)

Imejte se radi,

M.

Sugar Tonight

I received an email from a lovely lady asking me if I can tell her which nail polish did I use in this picture, so I thought it would be fun write a post about it and share those information with you, my dear ladies. :) I might even do this more often, since I wear different nail polishes all the time! Seriously my nails are 99% of the time covered with some nail polish, I can't stand being without a color on my nails. I feel kinda naked without it ... ;)

I really like this look since it was so soft and easy-going. I will wear it again for sure! 




Colors used: 
♥ Essence - Sugar Tonight 
♥ Essence - Circus Confetti

Wishing you all a beautiful day, 
M.

Weird Fact about me {8}


* I'm terrified of HIGHTS! *


I would rather die, than stand where those people (on the picture above) stand. And I mean it! I would probably get a heart attack or something. I'm not that scared to be in places that are super high (like buildings) and closed all around me ... but if it's an open thing - well that's a completely different story!
+ I don't particularly like to climb a ladder ... that scares me too. *shame*

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ 

* Višave?? Ne hvala! *


Zmrznem, če samo pomislim, da bi morala stati na kakšni takšni višini, kot stojijo ti ljudje na zgornji fotografijo. Ni šans! Nobenih!! Me ne dobiš sem, pa da mi ponudiš ne vem kaj! Nikoli! 
Nimam nekih velikih težav z visokimi ZAPRTIMI prostori. Ne bo me strah gledati skozi okno zelo zelo visoke stavbe. Ampak pošlji me na balkon takšne stavbe ... kjer čutim veter in se zavedam dejstva, da nisem več tako zelo na varnem .... O NE, NE! To pa več ne bo šlo! 

+ Plezanje po lestvah? Noup, tudi to ne bo šlo. No ja - šlo še bi, samo mi ne bi bilo povsem vseeno. Bi malo pojamrala vmes. ;)

LITTLE BITS OF HAPPINESS {#2} - Just another Saturday

I love Saturdays! My favorite day of the week. We can all spend it together and when the day is slowly coming to an end you know that there will still be another lazy day tomorrow, since it will be Sunday and we all take it pretty easy on Sundays, right? ;)

Well the first part of this Saturday was all about Luna. We took our time and went on a really long walk. She enjoyed it so so much! And watching her so happy running around was the best feeling on the earth! I just love seeing her happy - and you can easily say that she's feeling good, since she running all around and being silly. :)

And the afternoon ... well we went shopping and this is whole another story. ;) I'll show you what I've got in one of my next posts. Something sooo sooo good and beautiful at the same time. ;)

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥


Obožujem sobote!! Sobota je že od nekdaj moj najljubši dan v tednu, sploh zato, ker tudi ko gre sbota h koncu veš, da je jutri še en bolj "počasen" dan. 

Prvi del tokratne sobote  je bil posvečen Luni. Resnično smo si vzeli čas in se odpravili v naravo. Pogledat, če bomo našli kaj zvončkov. ;) No po pravici povedanao o tem nismo niti razmišlljali dokler jih nismo zagledali. ;) 
Luni je bilo sicer povsem vseeno, če so kje kakšni zvončki ali ne - glavno, da je ona lahko tekala naokoli brez povodca. To se njej zdi najbolj zabavno in prav luštno jo je gledati, da se ima tako fino. 

In popoldne ... hja ... popoldne je bilo rezervirano za en mini "šoping." Kaj točno je posledica tega pa vam pokažem v eni izmed prihodnih objav. :)




These pictures makes me the happiest person around. Those truly are the "Little bits of Happiness."

Wordless Wednesday {Superwoman, #14}


I won't be "wordless" today, because this post deserve words. 

♥ This post is about one superwoman. 

♥ Not the one like Cat-woman or something like that. Not at all. 

♥ This woman is real. And she's just stunning. She's 80 years old, but she doesn't show it. 

♥ She's been through a lot (even war) in her life, but you could never tell - she's still so positive. 

♥ She was diagnosed with serious diseases few years ago. She FIGHT IT like a superwoman - well she kinda a kick diseases ass off! Like a true warrior! 

She never complains!

♥ She tells my mom she's fat all the time! :))) And she's not fat at all. But she like to make fun of her - that's her way to tell "I like you a lot." ;) 

♥ Whenever we came home from shipping she's here - she want's to see every single item we bought. And then she will comment it (sometimes she says "Ohh why didn't you came to me? I have that exact thing from your mom when she was your age." LOL).

♥ She's mad at us every time she see that we're coloring our hair. She says: "What are you doing with your beautiful hair??? You're crazy!" :) 

♥ She only lets me put a nail polish on her little finger. Never to a whole hand! What would people say if they saw her with her nails polished??? Ohh noo!!! She can not allow herself that. ;) 

♥ She believes in marriage. She believe that when you made that commitment to someone, you have to stick with it no matter what.   

♥ She's so depressed that she still wasn't able to dance at any of her grandchild wedding. She would love that so so much - so if any of you is reading this: GET MARRIED!! Your grandma wants to dance at your wedding. And don't point your finger to me - I'm not the oldest one she has. ;) So it's not my turn yet ... but when I think about it - I am the one with the longest relationship ... so she's probably kinda counting on me, ha?? :) I never realized that!

♥ I honestly think I'm her favorite grandchild. ;))) 

♥ She hated my name when I was born! Ohhh she drive my mom crazy with her reasons why I need another name. Her "strongest" reason was: "I don't even know how to spell that name. Manula? No? M-a-n-u-e-l-a?? You just had to make it hard for me, didn't you??" But my mom was 10000% sure about it and she didn't care if her mom doesn't like it. She will get used to it, she said. And she did. She doesn't have any trouble with my name any more - she usually calls me Manuela or sometimes Neli. :)

♥ You will never hear her curse. And I mean NEVER!   

♥ No matter how old I am she still says to me: "You have to eat this or you're going to die." :)) No mama, I'm not going to die if I skip this part of my meal that I don't particularly like. 

♥ She knows almost every young Slovenian singer. She hears a song on the radio and she goes "Ohh that's ...." And we can't believe it!! Ok, I understand that she know those singer and groups that older people listen too. But no - she knows (by song) all the singers that me and my sister listen right now! 

♥ She has a cell phone, but she doesn't carry it when she goes someplace, because people might say "Oo look at her, all fancy with a cell phone." :)) That's her exact words, when I ask her why she didn't pick up her phone when I was calling her! 

♥ Luna loves her!! And whenever she goes to her house, my grandma fell so bad for Luna, because she's looking at her with those puppy eyes and she always ends up giving Luna a snack. No matter how much I'm saying to her "don't feed it, she's not hungry." And then I turn around and she gives her something! Just so Luna would stop looking at her with big brown eyes. ;) 

♥ She's 80 (as I mention before) and she still bakes - from all sorts of biscuits to bread. 

♥ My mom bought her black scarf for Christmas, and she kinda a liked it but the first chance she had she went to that store and bought herself a purple scarf. Because she loves colors and she won't wear black like some old lady. :)) That's how she explained my mother, why she need that same scarf, just in different color. 


♥ She always find the best in every person, she hardly ever judge someone and she knows the true meaning of LIFE. 

She's my grandma and I couldn't wish for a better person in my life.

Wordless naj bi pomenilo brez besed. Ampak ta objava žal ni možna brez besed. Pravzaprav jih imam ogromno - besed, ki bi jih rada delila z vami. :) 

♥ Ta objava je o super-ženski. 

♥ Pa ne takšni kot jo poznamo iz filmov (Cat-woman in podobno). 

♥ Ta je resnična. In čudovita. Stara je 80 let, ampak jih ne kaže. 

♥ Preživela je že toliko vsega, da se ne da niti opisati (medrugim tudi vojno). Ampak ji tega ne bi nikoli pripisali, ker je preprosto tako zelo pozitivna. 

♥ Nekaj let nazaj so ji diagnosticirali zlobno bolezen, ki uniči marsikoga (če ne fizično, pa zagotovo psihično). Nje ni! Ona se je borila in nabrcala bolezen direktno v njeno "tazadnjo," tako da si ne bo upala več priti nazaj. ;)

♥ Nikoli se ne pritožuje. 

♥ Moja mami vsaj enkrat na teden sliši komentar o tem da je en majček "predebela" in da se je fino poredila. ;) Kar niti približno ni res. Ampak naša stara mama to z največjim užitkom komentira, ker se ji zdi ekstra zabavno zbadati ljudi, ki jih ima rada. 

♥ Ko pridemo domov iz naše "šoping turneje" je vedno tu. Čaka, da vidi kaj smo kupili. In potem komentira. Včasih so njeni komentarji lepi, včasih pa bolj v stilu "ja kaj si pa to kupovala. Prišla bi k meni, pa bi ti jaz dala točno tako isto stvar. Jo imam še od tvoje mamice." Ja ... 

♥ Vsakič se jezi na nas, če vidi, da si barvamo lase. Pravi, da smo zmešane, ker si uničujemo takšne lepe lase. "A nisi dosti lepa takšna kot si??" pravi. ;) 

♥ Dovoli mi, da ji nanesem lak za nohte le na en prst - na mezinčka. Drugo niti slučajno!! Kaj bodo pa ljudje rekli, če bodo videli, da se šminka?!!? :)

♥ Trdno verjame v zakon. Ko enkrat narediš ta korak, se ne smeš več vračati nazaj. In ločitev pride v poštev le v skranjih primerih. Drugo se da vse potrpet. ;)

♥ Depresira jo dejstvo, da še ni plesala na nobeni poroki svojih vnukov. To si tako zeloooo zelooo želi, pa ji nihče ne izpolni želje. ;) Tako, da vnuki njeni dragi, če kdo to bere, veste kaj vam je storiti. POROČITE SE! Vaša stara mama bi rada plesala!! Na vaši poroki!!! In če kdo slučajno sedaj obrača svoj prst proti meni ... ne ne. Manuela ni najstarejša med vami. Čeprav, če razmislim malo bolje, sem res tista, ki je že najdlje v zvezi ... a to pomeni, da ona potihoma računa name??? :))

♥ Iskreno menim, da sem ji jaz najljubša med vsemi vnuki in vnukinjami. ;)) 

♥ Uff kako je sovražila moje ime, ko sem se rodila!! Mojo mami je že prvi dan spravljala ob živce, da kakšno ime mi pa to daje? Da kdo bo pa to znal izgovarjat? Kdo pa še ima takšno ime? Nikjer noben! :)) Ampak mami je bila več kot 1000% prepričana, da je to pravo ime in ga ni hotela zamenjati. Dandanes nima več nobenih problemov z mojim imenom, ga čisto pravilno uporablja in se ga je lepo naučila. ;) Za njo sem ponavadi Nelika. ;) 

♥ Nikoli je ne boste slišali preklinjati! Ampak res nikoli! Za njo je kletvica "porkamadona." Pa še to ne vem, če kdaj izreče. Se ne spomnem. 

♥ Ne glede na to koliko sem stara, mi še vedno reče: "Moraš to pojest, če ne boš umrla." Ne mama, ne bom umrla, če ne pojem en del obroka, ki mi ni najbolj všeč. ;)

♥ Pozna toliko slovenskih pevcev, da je kar smešno, ko jo slišiš koga vse prepozna (pa ne samo po videzu, ampak po radiu!!). Ok ne bi bilo nič čudnega, če bi pač poznala skupine in pevce, ki jih pač starejši ljudje poslušajo. To bi bilo povsem normalno. Ampak, da ve da to pesem izvaja Omar Naber in spet eno drugo Alya ... ok tu pa se ji lahko marsikdo samo prikloni. ;) Včasih še moja mami ne ve kdo to poje, pa ji stara mama pove. ;))) 

♥ Ima mobitel. Ampak ga ne nosi s seboj, ko kam gre. A zakaj ne? Ker jo bo kdo videl in bo rekel, da je fina stara baba, ker nosi mobitel s seboj. (- to so njene besede, ne moje) ;) 

♥ Luna jo obožuje! In vsakič, ko gre k njej na obisk, se ji ta obisk tudi splača. Namreč ni važno kolikokrat povem "Mama ne dajaj ji nič, ker ni lačna." Luna pa gleda s svojimi velikimi okicami, milo prosi in isto sekundo, ko se obrnem stran slišim "mljac, mljac" in Luna že pohrusta nekaj kar je dobila, ker je pa tako milo jo gledala. :)  

♥ Kot sem že prej omenila - stara je 80 let, ampak še vedno na veliko peče. Vse od piškotov, potic pa do kruha. Tudi rezance redno dela. ;)

♥ Mami ji je za Božič kupila črn šal. Črn ker bo nekako najbolj univerzalen in ga bo lahko kombinirala k vsemu, pa še 80. let je stara. Ljudje teh let imajo najraje temne barve, mar ne? Noup! Napaka!! Stara mama je ob prvi priliki, ki jo je dobila šla v to isto trgovino in si kupila vijoličen šal. Ker "kaj pa ona (moja mami) misli, da bo tak grd črn šal nosila?? To naj stare babe nosijo. ;)"


Vse to in še veliko več je moja stara mama. ;))
