Back from Croatia

It was great. We had a week full of sunshine, full of relaxation, full of hot weather, full of long days at the beach and in the ocean, full of very yummy food and full of happiness. I have made a BUNCH of photos and here are a few.

Visit my Croatia June 2009 Set on Flickr if you’re interested in more, because, you know, a picture paints a thousand words. I might write an article about Baska, Krk later tonight.

Favorite Etsy Shops

I like browsing Etsy.com, so I thought I’ll post some of my favorite shops.

Cute stuff makes my heart beat. I love purchasing purses and pouches on Etsy because they’re just plain unique. Nobody else has them. They look great. I also like cute things for the desk and wall and of course everything to do with maps 😉 Enjoy!

It’s June Already

Time seems to somehow fly! It’s nice though, in two weeks I’ll be in Croatia enjoying my vacation. I can’t wait! It’s been so long since I’ve been on a beach last. I think it was six years ago – in Croatia.

If you look on my Archives Page, you’ll see that since I’ve started my job in February 09 I hardly blog anymore. Maybe twice or three times a month (including the mini-posts). I’m really not in the mood to do anything on my site at the moment. On the weekends I’d rather do something else than sit in front of the PC. I’m really sick of this layout though. Too lazy and un-creative to create a new one… Let’s see, maybe sometime in the future my passion will be back.

My cousin (with a friend) from the States has visited from Wednesday to Saturday. I was so exhausted yesterday (Sunday) that I did nothing. It was her first time in Munich (Europe generally) so I showed them nice and interesting places of Munich, we ate a lot of sausage, Sauerkraut, Leberkäse and Fleischpflanzerl and drank a lot of Radler. Typical Bavarian food you get when you visit me 😉

Just wanted to drop by my site again and leave a short message. Hope you all have a great week! Thanks for still reading my posts and commenting, even though I don’t visit your site as often at the moment..

Long week

This week has been long! I’ve been working over hours to get in, well, some extra hours.

The big project I’ve been working on (with my colleague) (at work) is finally completed and my company’s website is online with a whole new look. We’ve used Drupal as a CMS and I still don’t get the hang of it. Oh well, luckily my colleague is more of a coder than I am – I mainly do the design. If you’re nosy and want to see the site (and then know which company I work for) – email me. Either I’ll answer or not ;).

I need a new layout. I’m finally getting sick of this one. And I’m only on my site on the weekend (like today). Since I’ve started working my 40+ hours and living with the Lover I’m really not in the mood for the Internet at night. It’s kind of a shame, but on the other side I’m also happy I’m not hanging online until dawn.

So, the Lover’s gone and I have time (maybe) to work on a new layout. I want a plain one this time, but actually I want a plain one every time… we’ll see.
