Something About Me
- Jenn in Holland
- The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this: A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
I welcome you warmly.

beautiful photo.
ReplyDeleteNice photo! I'd never seen the flower, but the myth behind it's name is one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteOh, I wish, I wish...
ReplyDeleteWow! That's coming up right now where you are? I think I should see for myself.
ReplyDeleteyeah at the highway exit of the E19 in Rumst, there's a bunch of them. And next to my parent's garden there's 'krokussen' flowering.
ReplyDeletethe advantage of not having a winter is having an early spring, I suppose.
Hey sweetie, as usual a beautiful picture.... well done for getting through today, i know how horrible horrible days at work are, if you EVER need someone to shout at you know where i am! I can't wait to play chinese lions tomorrow xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteSo. So gorgeous. That is my favoritest, happiest time of the year, when the flowers begin to say "enough already" to the wicked winter. YAYAYAYAY!!!
ReplyDelete(It doesn't look like that will ever happen here. Seriously. I'm looking at several feet of snow sitting on top of my flower beds right now.)
Nice to see them out. We will have our first in a matter of days I think. Happy WW
ReplyDeleteSo spring really is coming! That is a stunning photo. Thanks for the brightness today.
ReplyDeleteWe call 'em daffodils! I can't wait to see 'em here in the U.S. Happy WW! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this. Still have a month or more for ours to come out.

Ahhhh....so nice! I am looking forward to Spring - I love when everything blooms except for the allergies that come with it. I did not know the blooms arrive so early in the Netherlands!
ReplyDeleteOh my, the first flower of spring.
ReplyDeleteOh my! Spring, this early! (Our neighbour has lambs already!) I wonder how long it will last. It wouldn't be the first time if it started snowing and freezing in March or April.
ReplyDeletevery pretty.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW
In early February, that's great.
