The Dark Tower

Serão perfeito de sábado à noite com um filme baseado numa obra-prima de Stephen King, protagonizado por Matthew McConaughey, que interpreta o Homem de Negro e Idris Elba, que dá vida a Roland Deschain.

O pistoleiro Roland Deschain percorre o mundo em busca da famosa Torre Negra, prédio mágico que está prestes a desaparecer. Essa busca envolve uma intensa perseguição ao poderoso Homem de Preto, passagens entre tempos diferentes, encontros intensos e confusões entre o real e o imaginário. Baseado na obra literária homônima de Stephen King.

Confesso que estava a contar que este filme fosse mais assustador e creepy, mas acabei por gostar bastante desta trama baseada num original do mestre Stephen King composta por 8 livros.

Ja viram? 😉

Pot time | Potty training

Louis in the potty with the tablet, without judgment because for great evils, great remedies …;)

There is a right time for everything. And I have learned this a lot from my puppy as I have already said here. I presented the pot to Louis shortly after he was a year old, before he started walking, when he was already standing on things, but he always refused. It has already shown signs, the nursery has helped but it is difficult to stop being a baby. I feel that he will achieve, without pressure, as he has achieved everything so far. I was like that too. Despite being a girl, I left the diapers, cloth, at 4 years old. I remember that because it is the first memories I have, and lately I am always reminiscing about a somewhat embarrassing situation. Once, I ran to the bathroom very embarrassed and full of fear that my mother would scold me because I had just pooped in my underwear … 🙁 thinking that I still had a diaper, when I saw my mother change the diaper to my middle brother who was still a baby, younger than me, 4 years old. When my mother saw me in distress, she reassured me, but from that moment on I walked around with the pot almost glued to the rabiosque and when I arrived at my grandparents' house and did the same. The most amazing thing is that when I went to school, at 6 years old, I endured the afternoon without going to the bathroom because I didn't feel comfortable …

I'm reading a very interesting book to help with this phase: Potty Training in 3 days

Let the children be children. Time is very important in the first 5 years of our life.

As Ines Heredia said in this conversation, the education system still has a lot to change, notably in terms of the ages of children in education levels. For example, Louis had a little friend in his day care center who turned 4 in October last year, being in 2015, when most of them were in 2016 like Louis, of course this boy will always be ahead of the others but for years after the opening of the school, he cannot go to school together with the other boys of his year … It seems that it doesn't make much difference. In the case of Louis, he is one of the last to make years of his year, so that says a lot about his development.

It's costing a lot to stop being a baby, my dear, but believe it is for a good reason: to grow up ❤️

For me, you will always be my baby, smile and look sweet ❤️

Snack saudável

Chips de batata doce branca.

Um snack fácil de fazer para aqueles momentos em que sentimos um ratinho estômago.

Lavam-se as batatas e cortam-se as rodelas fininhas. Levam-se ao forno a 180o graus num tabuleiro com uma folha de papel vegetal, temperam-se com sal e pimenta e regam-se com um fio de azeite. Ao fim de 15 ou 20 minutos estão prontas.

Já provaram? 😉

Hair Care.

Porque os meus cabelos merecem e pedem esta mascara vegan com cheiro bom a banana da Garnier, e tambem acabei por me render ao shampoo, cuja garrafa é feita através de materiais recicláveis 🙂 Garnier foi a primeira marca de produtos para o cabelo que usei na adolescência, por recomendação da minha madrinha, dia ela que o shampoo e amaciado de camomila mantinha os meus cabelos aloirados. 🙂 O que é certo é que acabo sempre por voltar a esta marca, seja em produtos para o cabelo ou cremes e agua micelar para o rosto.

Quis também experimentar este condicionador da Palmers com cheirinho a coco que me traz de volta os cheiros dos Verões da minha infância por causa dos protetores solares da Nivea. 🙂 O meu cabelo sempre foi muito seco e com a idade e as alterações climáticas tem tendencia a piorar. Mas descobri nestes produtos os meus salva-vidas e o meu cabelo agradece.

Ja conheciam estes produtos? 🙂

4 anos de ti

Filho, isto está a passar tao rápido, bem que o meu instinto me avisou que isso ia acontecer. Estás a deixar de ser o nosso bebe e acho que essa é a parte que mais nos está custar. Continuas a ser o maior desafio da minha vida. Todos os dias provas isso. A tua personalidade está cada vez mais forte. Todos os dias me desafias e me pois à prova. Como que a dizer: vá, tu consegues, tu és capaz. Perdoa-me pela falta de paciência às vezes, mas sabes que isto de ser mãe não vem com manual de instruções… mas acredita que estou a dar o melhor de mim, inspirada em ti. 🙂

Foste o melhor presente que a vida nos deu, foste um sonho tornado real 🙂

Obrigada, meu querido 🙂 Amo-te muito e acredita que da minha parte vou continuar a fazer tudo para te fazer Feliz 🙂

Storyteller Dices d’As Gavetas| Mummy Sunglasses

-Louis, onde estão os meus óculos? – perguntei num tom apressado, pois ja estávamos atrasados para ir para a escola.

O Louis apareceu com as mãos na carita dizendo:

-Mummy, I can’t see it! (Mami, eu não vejo!)- respondeu ele, com uma carinha triste.

-Oh come on, Louis, we are going to be late to school (Oh anda lá, Louis, assim vamos chegar à escola.) – disse eu.

De repente o Louis olhou para mim e começou a rir muito, com aquelas gargalhadas tão características dele, que fazem bem à alma.

Eu fiquei a olhar para ele perplexa e perguntei:

-O que se passa?

-Mummy, your sunglasses are here (ele chama sunglasses aos meu óculos normais) 🙂 – e apontou para a minha cara 😀

Foi então que levei as mãos à cara e constatei que realmente tinha os óculos postos.

Desatei a rir às gargalhadas, juntamente com o Louis que entretanto tinha ido buscar os seus “pretending glasses” (óculos de fazer de conta) 😀 😀 😀

-Today I’m going to wear my “sunglasses” to go to school 😀 (Hoje vou levar os meus óculos para a escola!)- disse ele todo contente e determinado. 🙂

O mundo precisa de mais pessoas como o João Pedro. Parece que este fim de semana houve uma manifestava do partido Chega de Andre Ventura para provar que os portugueses não são racistas… e o João esteve lá com um bandeira LGBT. Foi a melhor resposta para aquela manifestação de treta.

The Portuguese were the example of the world during confinement. What pride I felt. I wish it had been so because it seems that we have not been in lockdown for the evil of our sins.

Suddenly it looks like the virus disappeared and they all went out on the street like it was nothing. The first covid victim died and what was the best tribute they could pay him? Hold the Champions League Final in Portugal! But where is the respect for those who fight every day to save lives?

I tell you what, as much as I like football, right now I only see money… The king sport is missing from the king sport, for me we used to play football again, beans or a sandwich and a glass of juice.

And we all lived a lot happier, don't you agree?

Skank is right:

And when I see the news coming to us from Portugal this weekend, I think it seems that the vaccine has already left for most of these people … from illegal parties with hundreds of people in Lagos, to a focus of 62 positive cases in the nursing home in Reguengos de Monsaraz, not to mention the dozens of young people who were this weekend at the docks of Lisbon… 🙁 These people are playing with their health and everyone else's. I wonder what's going on in these people's heads. But do they all want to die? 🙁 Believe me, I don't want to because I really like living 😉

When…

… a football player has to do the work of politicians, something wrong goes with those who govern us …

Yes, it took Marcus Rashford, manchester united player to create a campaign for the British government to decide to create a fund for underprivileged children. "No child deserves to go to bed hungry" said the player.

How long will our rulers continue to ignore such essential things and will only remember the value of people when they need them to be elected?…

I grew up with very little but fortunately we didn't lack food, whether it was in our house or at my grandparents' house. Even at my grandparents' house, my grandmother received almost every month a basket of food aid, because counting on us had three more grandchildren in her charge.

I thank him for making sure that Louis doesn't miss anything either, and we're always going to make sure that when he sees that a friend needs something, he's able to help. 🙂

Sorry?!

2020 remains a year to forget… had everything to be a good year, the beginning of a new decade, I like both even and leap years but it seems that this does not want to contribute … 🙁

"All that is done for the eyes of men, even if it is done, is not done." (Sermons, "Exhibitionism").

"From a mistake are born many, and on such wrong foundation there was never right building." (Documents, "Error")

"To speak in the wind, words are enough, to speak to the heart, works are necessary."

But now you want to pick it all up? Do you see racism in this statue? I only see a priest surrounded by children and not wanting to take advantage of them! Rare thing!

Did you know that…

"Father António Vieira was half-breed, it is necessary to understand the political context of the time, church, and more specifically the company of Jesus to which he belonged had vows of poverty, was what at the time most akin to a charity. Father António Vieira was known not only for supporting and protecting natives, but also advocated the liberation of slaves, gave shelter to escaped slaves, several times opposed the colonial government Portuguese and was disastered because of it. To say that the context of Father António Vieira is criminal, is the same as saying that Gandhi was also a criminal in India." – comment on Facebook with which I agree and sign underneath.

Humanity is in need of a very large dose of notion and common sense. People need to stop mixing things up, because history doesn't go away, we just have to make things do not happen again! And for that we have to study hard and educate future generations.

I leave you with a question: Who do you think was responsible for the authorship of this vandalism?…
