<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i haven't written in a very
long time.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i guess i just haven't
been in a good place, mentally.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i didn't want to dwell on
things here.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i've written and
erased this post several times in the last few months...</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
but i miss having my blog, and i don't want to pretend this didn't happen neither...</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
on march 20<sup>th</sup>
my father died from a heart attack.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
he had had one before, 5
years ago, when i was still in college, but because of that he had been
constantly checked on, and was doing as normal as one can. no red flags whatsoever...</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
so you can understand how unexpected and devastating it was to me.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i went to portugal for the
funeral and stayed for a week. when i returned to work, i just simply
couldn't work. It was unbearable for me to stay in the office,
working, like nothing had happened and with everyone telling me how
sorry they were for me...</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i took another week off of
work, and still felt the same...</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
i had been having (what i
know now are) anxiety attacks prior to my father's death, but they
became a lot more frequent.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
so i decided, with the
help of tó, to quit my job and take some time to feel better
without any pressure.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
pass forward 4 months, and
one attempt to move to switzernland, and i'm still here in paris,
feeling and doing better, but without a job and feeling rather
useless, really.</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
for a while i tried to
change my life, to meet my dream of living somwhere quiet, with
mountains, and when i went to genève for a job interview (which in the end i didn't get...) i absolutely loved it...</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
this past week, however, i finally got into my head that i can't stay like this anymore. i'm now starting to apply for jobs in paris again - afterall, my boyfriend has a secure job here, we have a nice studio and we do have good friends here!</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
so when i actually think
about it, my life is actually good here in paris... :)</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
it's time to move on with life, so here's to the happy times to come*</div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div align="CENTER" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>

more than twenty days have passed since my last post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i really feel like i have no time for anything lately...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but that's not entirely true since i went last weekend to berlin. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was my first time in germany. and i loved feeling like a real turist again :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i turned 27 on the 17th and tó gave me a smartphone - i guess he had it with hearing me sigh for an instagram account... haha. so now that i finally have one, feel free to<a href="http://instagram.com/joanakingwell"> follow me</a> :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but for the moment i'd like to share some photos of the 2nd castle we visited in the loire region - chenonceau.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ever since i saw a photo of this bridge-castle on the internet i knew i had to see it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was quite a gloomy day, but its gardens were kind of magical. we wandered around outside just until it started pouring rain... then it was time to enter in this unique castle :)</div>

in my last post i had said we had done a little trip to a couple of castles.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i finally got the photos back (well some of them)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and thus i'm sharing them with you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this is château de chambord. we got there only an hour and a half before closing time, but it was time enought to be overwhelmed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i think i went a little overboard with the photos of the towers, but i took them as we walked through the different paths of the castle. from any point in the castle you were led to a gallery that overlooked the enumerous towers, as well as the courtyard. there was a stunning <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=chateau+chambord&espv=210&es_sm=122&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=cKf2UsjPLufZ0QXU7YDYCA&ved=0CAoQ_AUoAg&biw=1517&bih=714#q=chateau+chambord+escalier&tbm=isch">staircase in double spiral</a> with zenital light that i didn't manage to capture well on film...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
still i think you can get a glimpse of the intricate castle of chambord from these :)</div>

last weekend me and tó went to visit a church he wanted to see for a really long time. the church was designed by the french architect Auguste Perret and it is only 10km away from our home, in Raincy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it was a gloomy day, and therefore the light didn't shine through as bright as we hoped for, but every now and then, a ray of light woud come in and the whole room would gain a magical feel. you really felt the presence of specs of light and color, and it felt rather peaceful, even for me, an atheist.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
also this weekend we went to see a couple of chateaux in the loire :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
gloomy weather once again, but it was so worthy the drive there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we've liked it so much we've decided we want to explore that area of france for a longer period than just a weekend when the weather gets better :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was great just to go outside of paris... and experience more of a rural area as the big city is starting to really stress me...</div>

this morning i woke up really early due to our guest - jack, anabela's cat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
he's hyperactive, to say the least...!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and as i saw a glimpse of a blue sky, i put some clothes on and out the door i went.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
tó gave me a fuji instax mini camera this christmas and so far i had only tried it inside. so it seemed like the perfect oportunity to test it outside on a bright day...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i live only 15min walking from bois de vincennes, and it is just the perfect place to spend the morning - as it is quite big you can walk for kilometers and kilometers without a lot of people around and it has several lakes, so it's granted you'll find some lovely ducks :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so here are the photos i took this morning</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
so far i'm in love with this camera. it is a nice alternative to the classic polaroid cameras (although i still would love to have one) it is extremely easy to use and really light.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i will try to take it with me on a daily basis :)</div>

it's been a real long time since i last wrote here, so i think i should start by explaining what has been going on lately...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
since october i had been extremely unhappy at work... i felt like i was going nowhere as i was disappointed at the lack of interest / organization of my boss and i basically though i was wasting my best years there... so mid-november i started sending portfolios and after two weeks i got an interview and a new job!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on top of that me an tó also worked on an arhcitecture competition for denmark at the same time...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so all the weekends were filled with more screens and autocad.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so you can imagine how glad i am to be on christmas vacations!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this year to avoid all the moving around between mom, dad and friends, i chose to stay here and rest and have my mom come for christmas instead :)<br />
<br />
<br />
whilst wishing you're having a great time tduring the holidays, i leave you some photos i took while on the trip to le mont-saint-michel. </div>

on the way to le mont-saint-michel we passed by beautiful sceneries, even though it was impossibel to stop the car and take a photograph for most of the times. but everytime we could, we would.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i though the inumerous amount of pastel cows in the middle of vibrant green filds of grass were so adorable.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we passed by chatêau de carrouges (photos 2 to 5) and it was gloomy but beautiful. i though it was sweet to have a groups of cows in one of the bedroom window views :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then on the manoir de la saucerie, the strange mismatched sctructure that had fascinated me while searching online. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
tó was really excited to draw it, but it proved to be more difficult than anticipated ... i think however that the photos show a bit of its character :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
i have just realized i haven't posted anything since before going on holidays to portugal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
since the beggining of august a lot has happened. we came back in my car, as i wanted, and we had a lovely road trip, even if it was a little tight on time. thanks to our gps we went through the loveliest little villages in the region of aquitaine ( i must admit i was a bit sad to cross the pirineus at night...)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we took advantage fo the car and we went to visit le mont-saint-michel - finally!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on the way there we stopped at chateau de carrouges, la tour de bonvouloir and le manoir de la saucerie, wish was just the cherry on the ckae, really.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and most recentle we have welcomed our dear friend (and fellow architect) joana. she's now also working and living in paris and i'm happy that our little family here is growing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but for now, here are the adorable little kitties i had the pleasure of seeing and touching at my aunt's house :)</div>

a coupe of weeks ago anabela decided it was time for us to go to parc de bagatelle. she had been there once before and knew i would love it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so we did, and so i loved.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it was fantastic to be able to have a nice picnic in a beautiful parc that wasn't crowded. and right after we sat dows on the grass to eat the peacocks came to greet us - it really felt like i was back at porto at - the gardens of the cristal palace - but in a huge scale.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and after there were the stunning gardens, mostly of roseries, of every color you can imagine, like flocks of color in the green grass.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then there were the lovely structures - the pagodas and the metalic shelters... so delicate...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
at the end we didn't get to see all of the garden, so a second visit is mandatory!</div>

i've also booked the flight back home for the holidays. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the idea of going to the north of europe has been taunting me for quite a while, but i guess i miss family and friends to much to not go home instead.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i'm hoping to return to paris in my car.</div>

and i'm hoping that will be the begining of road trips in france and central europe :)</div>

when we went to fontainebleau (and it tooks us more than a year to finally go there!), i knew i was taking a lot of photos of the same structure in the lake. i just thought it was so beautiful... with the perfect setting of the lake, the trees behind and the sweet little row boats around.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but i didn't realize it was almost all i shot.</div>

this weekend has been quite the excursion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on saturday we finally went to chateau fontainebleau and walked in it's gardens for hours and hours... it really is that beautiful!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and today we went to visit an alvar aalto house - maison louis carré- just outside of paris.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it envolved a train ride and then 8km of walking just ot get there... but it was certainly worth it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it was the first time i've ever seen one of his works in person, and it left us (me and tó) wanting to visit his works in the north of europe this summer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the meantime, here are som photos from rouen:</div>

p.s. - that white cat on the window was literally the first thing we sawn when arriving to the city center and it was a nice welcome gift :)</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">we returned last night.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">rouen was beautiful, and i enjoyed strolling around the old city center and taking photos, but i was disappointed by the constant rain...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">it was difficult to feel uplifted, when we had to walk in a fast pace, with umbrellas, even in such beautiful streets.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">but in the end, we got to know another beautiful place, we saw amazing structures and streets and monumental churches - specially having in mind rouen's size! - and when we seeked refuge in st ouen's church, during a storm, we got to listen to this amazing concert of torgan and trompet :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

today is mother's day in portugal!</div>

it's funny how being away from home makes you aware of the importance of family and friends.</div>

this photograph was taken on the day my uncle got married. i was the ring bearer girl. i had just fell and scrapped my knee before entering the church and my mom was conforting me without making a big deal out of the minor accident - like always :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on a side note, kiki, the cat, is still hidding in the tub (she left durinng the night, only to hiss at benny... and thanks to that we were able to take a shower in the morning!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i feel that benny - who's so so gentle - is getting affraid of our guest...</div>

new look!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i was getting tired of always seeing the same thing, even if i don't caome here often now...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
starting today, and for a week, i'm cat sitting for a coworker's cat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when they arrived to drop her she was so curious and happy - she even ate the entire bowl of benny's food!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but the poor cat got so afraid after the owners left, she has been 'hidding' in the tub ever since they left - 3h!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i just hope she starts feeling less afraid still today...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

we've arrived a couple of days ago, from two glorious sunny weeks in portugal :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
benny is finally home with us now!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he's still getting used to the very small space and to the lack of birds singing (when compared to what he had back home)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but he's doing good!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he's favorite thing for the moment is to meow until we finally open the door and he goes exploring the hallway, sniffing every door and welcome mat :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and when we arrived i noticed that all of the trees have leaves and flowers now. all it took was these two weeks :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'm so glad spring is coming at last !</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'm happy to go to portugal. this grey weather makes me not want to do anything.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the weekends have been just about doing the house chores and relax a bit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i feel like i need the sun to go out and walk around, take photographs, etc..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i've been seeing beautiful polaroids <a href="http://pollypasserdomesticus.blogspot.fr/2013/04/settantasette.html">everywhere</a> lately</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and i've been starring at these ones of my mom i have in the walls of the new flat. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i have the polaroid camera that took these very photos back in portugal. my grandmother gave it to me a few years ago. i don't think it works, but i should try to put some batteries on and give it a go!</div>

i went to bruges in the beggining of february.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it was the 1st time since we arrived - almost 11 months - that we've travelled outside of paris or portugal.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i fell in love with it. every street seemed out of a fairytale. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the bricks are just so beautiful to me, that even an extremely cold, rainy/snowy day couldn't ruin the experience :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
me and tó want to save so we can travel more often to places we've never been before.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
tonight i've been looking through folders and folders of photos. i have selected more than 50 to get printed this week so we can have something on the walls by the weekend. but it's always so nice to remember everything you did and saw from looking at old photos...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u>also, i will return from portugal with my cat on april the 24th :)</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it's strange to think that on that day it will be exactly one year since we left portugal. i really don't feel like a lot of time has passed...</div>

the snow has returned!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this morning i woke up to a full white scenery outside our windows.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i took this photo on the day we moved. i was lucky to capture the lovely grey cat that rested day after day outside our window (from the old flat).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he was chubby - we fed him every weekend, and so did a number of other neighbours! - and looked a lot like a brittish shorthair.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'm planning on buying the trip to bring benny, the cat, by the end of this month. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then, along with the addition of some photos and nick nacks this home will be a 'home sweet home'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

yesterday (and after three weeks) i finally got internet, phone and tv service in the new apartment and i finally feel like part of the world.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it really makes an impact in your life not being able to contact with people outside your little work bubble!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we are now fully installed here, having bought the furniture and nic nacs for the house, even if the organisation is still a work in progress...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and yesterday morning we went for the first time (walking) to the flea market in montreuil and tó bought me this wonderful postcard i fell in love with - you can stare at it for hours and still find a different expression in every kid's face :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and we had our first official dinner with friends yesterday night to celebrate my birthday !</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it was wonderdul and i finally feel at home here in france :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
finally the sun is shinning my way (or maybe it is the reflection in the snow...) and we've found our new apartment. the contract is signed! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it's a really nice studio in montreuil. and we're moving and buying things all this week :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the last few days i've been enjoying the white snow, and walking on it for the first time since i was a little kid.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but it's a bit anoying when it comes to moving. using public transports is not an easy task. and i still have to master walking on it without slipping!</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
i have arrived from portugal on the 29th (where i did nothing but relax), tired and with yet another luggage... it seems we have more and more suff by the day. i wonder if we'll have space to store it all in the new appartment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we're still trying to find a new place, and having a hard time doing it... it feels like paris is the hardest place to rent an apartment!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but i'm trying to think positive - we still have some time, and when we do get it, i'm sure life will be better :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in the meantime though, here are some photos i took in provins.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it feels good to look at these and remember easier times :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*i hope you had a nice start on 2013*</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
yesterday it was his birthday... and yet we have had no time to celebrate it... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
things have been particularly hectic the few past weeks - we keep getting up earlier and getting home later and later...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but on a bright side i've finally sent the letter to cancel the contract of this apartment, which means that in february we'll have a space of our own, and a fifth person to ruin the whole mood of the house won't be a problem - this really has killed my happiness lately.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it will also be 'our' first apartment :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and... benny the cat will finally be living with me once again!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and i saw snow outside of my window for the 1st time in my life... and i felt as excited as a kid :)</div>
