Diabetes Foundation More Condition_symptoms

About me.

14th week I thought about it, I think, and I'm finally are enough to collect the ball from lanciatami tortellini. The meme is 'what is turning a bit' everywhere: to tell 8 8 facts of his life. In reality 'I must admit that I take this opportunity to take part in another but that MeMe' I had not been named, was launched by The Pig Drunk , but that 'I found intriguing and that inspired me to post this photos already 'in a long time I had in mind to shoot. This second MeMe needs to photograph something if ', your body or your home, farcis know a bit'.... Well, of course I have taken something of my body and it was a picture that I wanted to make some time given a certain circumstance I will talk about 'the end of the post. I should mention another 8 people for this meme, but I think I'm one of the last still have no direct part ... so do not nominate anyone ... and now here we go:


1. one of my 'great love and' the city 'where I was born: Naples. My whole family 'of Naples, is on the side of my mother that my father'. But my parents' reasons for working in the north were forced to sopstarsi (history of many other people ...). Well, I'm just physically prorpio born in Naples in 1975 mom and dad 'lived in Milan and then after only about a year since my birth moved to Turin, the city 'where I lived all my life until 2003. Yet it's in my heart, 'a visceral love. I often feel more 'lack of Naples that of Turin, Turin, even if' I do not miss anything, I miss the loved ones who are there ', but Naples' a whole series of memories and memories related to Christmas, the family , dinners and lunches all together .... and then 'is not perhaps the city' more 'beautiful in the world?! To me '!


2. L ' love between me and my husband. Our history and 'fairly unique (but not as a love story and'?). We met back in 1996 in Mallorca on holiday, an American drifter in the various theaters of Europe with a group of street-dancers , Italian I entered the university '... you can' we understand that the future! After a trip in Italy and one of my own in Las Vegas, the story inevitably ends. For six years our paths now seem distant from each other forever. I get a letter every year, but without 'answer a bit' for the pain I had caused and also to the relationship I had with another person, a relationship that comes to term in 2003. Well right in the 2003 after qulache month, our paths cross again! Who would have thought? See you, finding love (it was never finished ...) and you decide that this you never leave 'never again'!


3. To love and 'cause you only live once, "carpe diem" , just to give a chance' to our history of putting down roots in 2003 I leave my work at the Public Relations Fiat to take my man and His career as an artist around Europe: Greece, Spain, Portugal and Spain again. There are his "assistant ".... and I have yet to finish my university studies I miss you .... just .... oooppps thesis! (For the happiness' of my mother!)


4. Leaving my Italy I also left my family and my friends. Including my dear friends, nicknamed The Lelle . Two sisters ... and I'd be more 'or less than the third! We shared so much together (even the fateful holiday in Mallorca ...), even more'.... It is not 'been easy to get away from them and I miss them every day. Thank goodness there's text messaging and Skype, which makes the distance more 'bearable! Hello Lulu .....


5. One of the most 'pleasant experiences I have lived and' was to work at a famous winery in Turin: "La Casa del Barolo" . The period and 'was short and dates back to around 2000-2001, but much and I' remains in my heart. I approached a world, the world of wine, so 'rich and so' full of fragrances, flavors, colors, combinations that I never even imagined it not been for the past months in this business and knowledge of people who still manage it .


6. The Pasta: I can not imagine my life without pasta. Of all shapes, all colors, with every type of sauce, in any type of soup or soup or cream ..... I love pasta! If a day goes by without eating it, well, the next day my body the claim. Sadness and 'here in Lanzarote the variety' of pasta shapes and 'very limited: spaghetti, linguine, bucatini, feathers, butterflies, fusilli, tagliatelle, gnocchi and ravioli Buitoni. And all the rest? Their sizes are more 'special of my favorites: Ziti (my favorite ...), maccheroncelli, paccheri, thimbles, fingering, homemade, tortiglioni, "Incredibly scialatielli ".... but I was able' to find a store occasionally has orecchiette (called Capricci ... mah!) and even trofie! And they are moments of pure joy when my eyes rest on these boxes ... I can almost smell the scents of my distant Italy!


7. For those who pass by here every now and not 'a new argument this: Shana . My dog \u200b\u200band that 'part of my life since February 9, 2002 and that among the many nicknames that I gave is the ' my little angel come down to earth. " E 'prorpio the dog that I always dreamed of having and I wanted ... When I look at her and she looks at me we can talk without saying anything. Poor, I made him spend so much: car, aircraft, crates, ferries ... has traveled the world and still will run ', but I'm sure she knows that I love and somehow pasiensa brings in all these movements. ..!


8. Well, last but not least .... EVEN from 14 weeks now, the thing most 'important and that' happened in my life: are waiting for another angel, this one comes from the sky, my Lulu tells me that I sent him my 'pope' and I have to keep quiet 'cause if they are taking care of him while my baby growing inside me! I had a little 'fear of making the news so' public .... but in the end and 'my life that I'm talking about here and what better time to share this joy? The photo shows just taken me to my 14th week of pregnancy. I hope it is the first in a series of shots that I want to do to document the changes that my body will suffer 'over the next 6 months. I'm starting to lose some 'waistline ... hope all is well!


Well, that 'what. I hope not to get too bored with my stuff ... it 's been fun for me to think what to write about my life!
A kiss to everyone!


Oh, and you can see another version of this photo on my photoblog !

Burma: you can not 'remain indifferent

Un muro con una cascata verde As I prepare to participate in the meme "8 things about me" to which I was invited by this pasta, I could not write in reference to one of the many tragedies and injustices that you are making these days in the world. I'm talking about the events that are being developed under the eyes of the world in Burma with the protest of Myanmar. I get email by Amnesty International on many injustices that surround us and this morning I received one that was intended to refer to this specification "tragedy" and calling for AAccess making their voices heard against the repressive government of Myanmar and in support of the brave monks Buddhists who are protesting at the cost of their own lives to help the poor and ordinary people who have no voice other! One way to help and another as 'simply to send a message to the White House so that' Bush (oh my God in whose hands we are ...) press the UN Security Council to do everything possible to stop this spreading of blood. Of course, who knows 'that this message will serve' to something but really ... evil can not 'do, right?
I have already 'sent my request and I hope that some of the people who pass by here decide to do the same: raise their voices against oppression . This is not 'one of the many "walls" high-den walls other than as the subject of my picture today-that exist in the world, will not be' easy to knock them down, but we will always have the right to make us feel, we !

Motor Bike Birthday Cakes

La cueva - Dear Lagomare

La Cueva ingresso It 'a long time that I do not take my beloved camera, my darling peas and I enter the maze lanzaroteni to discover new things ... These photos are one of the last few trips to' beginning of July. The problem 'that we have worked so hard in July and August, then the accident, then the anger and various problems, then other things ..... in fact I start also because' the photo archive is running out! La Cueva dettaglio This place is situated in the north and towards the center of Lanzarote, the country is called "Nazareth" (just do not know 'cause that name ...), this beautiful corner of paradise in the rock and' "La Cueva". Like many posts here on the island of its style and 'unmistakable carved into the rock and processed in a very stylish and original. This is a place ... well then you are ', a place where you can pass the evening very chill! That 's the view from the entrance and looking to the left you can see these scalini letteralmente nell'acqua....che portano ad un bar molto piccolo con due o tre tavolini, tante candele e poca luce elettrica in cui la musica varia da "Saint Germain des Pres" a "John Legend"...e mi sembra di aver gia' detto abbastanza...! (il problema e' attraversare le scalette con i tacchi di sera senza finire nell'acqua...ma per ora ce l'ho sempre fatta!)
Scalini malefici Superato il primo bar si passa nell'altra parte del locale (di cui non ho le foto...) in cui si trova una piscina, un ristorante rinomato qui a Lanzarote ("Lagomar" appunto) ed un secondo bar con una piccolissima pista da ballo, la consolle del deejay ed ancora tante candele e tanta roccia!
Insomma il posto e' unico, veramente. The outstanding music and truly intimate atmosphere and pleasant. The team then ... well, could not be 100% Italian! Milan, to be exact. And this 'was a big surprise for me, but in fact a place so' full of style could not be handled by Italian ....! (I never found here .... only local English tourists and Italians, many). All full of intriguing details!

Ferro battuto This is demonstrated by my photos, was my first day in La Cueva with my little girl who faithfully waited for me while I was satisfied to take pictures here and there '!

Pancreatis More Condition_symptoms

trees ...

Legno senza vita A day one of my friends on the phone from Italy asked me what I preferred place: Portugal (where I lived before coming here) or Lanzarote. The answer is not 'been easy, and maybe there's no' for an answer. The Algarve and I 'liked it so much: great beaches of sand, exciting landscapes, rivers, etc. ... Lanzarote, well that and say, 'a landscape more' quite unique, with its more than 300 volcanoes on a territory that extends in length to max 70 km in width and maybe 35 ..... more 'or less. Definitely unusual. The only things I miss here are a bit 'of green lawns and trees! Can not 'is not noted immediately when you arrive: here' s all lunar rocks, lava and dusty. Trees do not see, the only palm trees are and some dry trunks like this one photographed by me that I do not know where to go. The only forms of "trees" are the many screws are there and they produce good local wine, but they are very different from the homegrown. For here grows short short to ground level. This and it 'an example.
My Peas suffers a bit, 'because she loves to literally rub in the fields ... and here it is more'! Poor, and 'forced to smell gunpowder to make bisognini and sometimes doing it and' inevitable sneezing! But what about, face .... and still live in this beautiful place surrounded by so much sea, which certainly did not have parties of Turin (ah, here and there 'fog ....!!!). Ma proprio per non dimenticare le mie origini (e come potrei?), stasera preparero' un bel piatto di gnocchi fatti in casa alla Sorrentina!
Buon week-end a tutti!

Personality Disorder More Condition_symptoms

Looking at the sea ...

Guardando chi guarda Un giorno stavo passeggiando qui in Arrecife sul lungomare quando mi sono imbattuta in questa bella "creazione". Una statua che ritrae una donna con il viso appoggiato sulla sua mano destra, eternamente assorta nel guardare il mare davanti a se'....Che bello! Mi ha affascinato immediatamente, e' un'altra di quelle cose che non possono non darmi un senso di pace e tranquillita'. Il mare ha per me un significato tutto particolare, e nel mese di settembre -dal 1995- questo significato assume un senso ancora piu' intenso.
Guardando un dettaglio Quando ho visto questa statua non ho potuto non pensare all'importanza che il mare ha per me, e mi ci sono immedesimata immediatamente: quanto sarebbe bello poter passare giornate intere seduta davanti al mare a guardarlo....e sarebbe ancora piu' bello se lui potesse ritornare dal mare a me...Quanto mi manca. Ogni giorno della mia vita, sempre. Il mio papa' .

Kidney Stone Stuck In Urethra

Card for a child in Africa

La cartolina per Chidinma Questa e' un'enorme cartolina, 27x37 cm, una delle tante che vendono qui a Lanzarote. L'ho voluta con tante piccole immagini caratteristiche dell'isola perche' la persona a cui e' destinata non conosce very many things in the world, and I could see that the most 'can in one fell swoop. Who am I talking about? A little girl named Chidinma, nine years old and lives in Nigeria. I am, more 'exactly, his supporter, his "parents" adopted at a distance. It 'just in this that I speak of sponsorship. All
and 'started last year at a time when there was so much talk about "adopting" a little' forced Madonna to Malawi that the baby (I think ...). One evening on BBC World had interviewed a representative of ActionAid UK and Interntional she stressed how important it is even more 'of adopting children in the manner in which the pop star had done (that was not even an orphan child!) the fact of adopting a distance. When you start it with a sponsorship of the monthly fee is incurred not only helps the child / to go to school, but he supports his family and even the community 'in which the whole child / a living. For a ridiculously low price of € 25 a month .... we are talking about less than one euro a day ... you can 'actually helping an entire community' to achieve those things that many of us, where we come, not I never miss (even in our thoughts!).

short, after the interview I decided to go online to find out more '. The Italian site and ' this . Immediately I decided to fill out the form for sponsorship. After about a month I get 'mail an envelope containing a photo of the girl who had been chosen for me and necessary for the adoption incominicare it, provided that it was still my intention.
Of course it was, and so 'and' started this wonderful experience.
Chidinma and 'the most' of six small children and his family live in a village in southern Nigeria in a small house made of mud with tin roofs. His family owns a small plot where he tries to cultivate the need for family needs. There are no sources of clean water in the house. If someone in the family gets sick, he must walk long distances to receive health care. Chidinma goes to school and is learning to read and write. The first I've written a letter earlier this year.

A couple of months ago I received a drawing, and that 'this:

Il disegno di Chidinma

I shall now send you my postcard and I'll post' in the envelope a little cardboard bookmark that I bought for her in Portugal before leaving.

ActionAid and 'an NGO, secular, which operates on several fronts, not just in Africa. There are many more organizations, secular and Catholic, and all offer to sponsor one of their programs. I think 25 euro a month is not really anything for most of us would be great and that many people decide to make a small contribution to help those people who are truly needy and forgotten by all, in most cases. I am glad I started this adventure!
