mot francais du jour and crown *love*



~all photos courtesy of the fancy farmgirl~

Todays word en francais~

fatigué - which means "tired"

For example~

Je suis fatigué - I am tired, although, in this case, I am TIRED!!!




It has been a long two weeks - my husband has been working until at least 11 pm every night, seven days a week, and while I have wonderful fantabulous children, it is exhausting none the less.



Thankfully, tomorrow is a day dedicated COMPLETELY to MOI! I am heading down to this fancy farmgirl's house to visit her and this incredibly inspirational friend and spending the day with the two of them, creating (hopefully something half as lovely as these fabulous images, courtesy of sweet Tiffany) and recharging.



Can you feel the weight just lifting from my shoulders???

Have a lovely Dimanche mes amies~
xx

Oh how lovely Mimi!
Nothing like a delightful day with inspiring friends!
There's just no telling what you will get into!
If you make a crown...
wear it all the way home and strut it into the house!

It's always lovely to put time aside for yourself, although I think as women we do not allow it as often as we need it!

I am excited to see your creations! These ones and otherwise!

Tish Jett said...

One of my favorite words. You can draaaag it out so you really do sound tired.

Lovely post as always. I know I don't leave messages often, but it's not because I don't visit or appreciate your wonderful blog.

I'm always drawn to your pledge of how you plan to raise your boys to be good future husbands. Now, there's something French mothers could learn from you.

Warm regards,
Tish

It has been a long two weeks - my husband has been working until at least 11 pm every night, seven days a week, and while I have wonderful fantabulous children, it is exhausting none the less...WOW, have I been in the SAME exact spot, but I only have one kiddo. And as much as I adore him...I miss my husband!!
