Hi everybody!
Regen, that sounds good. It reminded me to one of my favourite comic books, Fables. It is different though, because in Fables the stories themselves, like Snow White and Cinderella are around, not their descendants. Also, that reminds me I have to read the Fables "revival" which was done several years after the original run.

Today is the beginning of the Holy Week. It is the day we remember Jesus in the Olive Tree forest and it is traditional to have a few olive branches (they are sold for whatever you want, as a charity thing) and have them blessed in the Holy  Mass. We have a super long weekend this year. Good Thursday and Friday are off days, but we also have the following Monday and Tuesday off, because Tuesday is the day we remember the Malvinas (Falklands) war and then Monday is a bridge.
On this Tuesday I begin dictating my classes. Looking forward to meet the new students!

Dina:
Happy Easter Sunday for everyone!  :) :)

Thank you. You, too.
We are partying a bit today. It's Micro's birthday. I got her some Lady Gaga music and we are listening to her right now.
My husband is behind the house to finish setting up the big trampoline. All the relatives collected for that and she doesn't know of it yet. We had planned to set it up yesterday while she was with her grandma, but it proved to be more difficult than expected, lol. So it will be done today.
I guess she will be outside soon and jumping in the rain and wind.

Regenbogen:
Sorry for the double post: update.

Micro jumps a lot and has a lot of fun.
Today, my cousin visited with her sons. The older one has a brand new diving licence now, and he was allowed to drive the car. When they left, he had a proud grin on his face for being able to get out of the parking spot on one try. Very cute. 😍 He seems to have fun driving a car.

Dina:
I hope she had a great birthday and enjoyed the trampoline  :)

I've been sick since several days ago. A nasty stomach flu, made worse by the fact that I decided to eat a few pieces of chocolate egg for Easter Sunday. I knew I was already ill, in fact that is why my Sunday forum post has been so brief, I had not energy for writing. But I love my traditions, and I was not going to cut that one, no matter what. So I am paying the consequences now. It is fair, I am not complaining. I made my bed.
On the bright side, still is holiday days, so no problems yet. I will probably take a sick day tomorrow and be back at work at Thursday (when I have classes). That assuming I will be better...
I took the time to watch some tv though. I watched Wonka, which was cute and nice. Also, watched a movie that I had long ago in my watchlist. It was called all the bright places I think (Violet and Finch in my Netflix). It was with Elle Fanning. It was about teenagers and their mental health, suicide included. Even when the themes are sad and dark, the movie itself is quite gentle and bright.
Last, I began watching X-men97 (which is a new animated show that follows the story of a show from the 90's that ended in 96 I think. So this is as if the show has continued organically but it is actually done now). I remember having watched some of the seasons of the old show, but I do not think I watched the last one. Anyways I enjoyed the few episodes that aired so far.

LOL! We were posting at the same time.
