Vlad The Man!
That's how Joe calls my brother. Vladimir is 20; He's sweet, funny as hell, patient, smart, and I love him more than I love anyone else on earth. I wish he could just move here with us. Then my life would be perfect!

2010
I am back! I deleted this blog at the end of 2009 because I felt I didn't have anything to write, yet I find myself thinking "I could write about this and that" so I am back.
The end of 2009 was a bit of a rollercoaster. I learnt I was pregnant but miscarried a couple of weeks after. Since then I have felt a bit depressed, a bit empty, but also positive that 2010 will be a good year and that I have to embody the Ubuntu philosophy. So 2010 will be a year of being good to myself, to others, and to the planet, which turned into 3 resolutions
- Be good to myself: cook healthy meals and work out (I have started working out at work during lunch time and we follow the "Insanity" workout, which is... insane!).
- Be good to others: become an advocate on behalf of a cause.
- Be good to the planet: buy organic food as much as possible and recyle (yes, I know... who doesn't recycle these days? Well, until recently, moi!).
I will try to keep updating this blog often, but I don't want this to become a burden. Still, keep checking in.
Of course, I have to mention Haiti. Please consider donating to an organization of your choice. Joe and I donated to the organization I work for, but there are a lot of good organizations out there that are doing a lot in Haiti -and have been there before the earthquake hit. The people of Haiti need your help.
