Hello, friends! Thank you for the very kind messages some of you sent me...
I am OK! And happy. After all, there's always P'tite Mignonne / Miss Cutie to look after me while I'm working... Making sure I get my dose of kitty love and serenity!
P'tite Mignonne is much better, thank goodness. She went through all sorts of troubles over the past couple of months, and even had to be operated on last week, poor cutie. She also had a small tumor in her stomach, which was a scare. She is much better now... although I found some kitty throw-up again tonight... fingers crossed it is nothing significant this time!
So... That is ONE sizeable piece of worry off our minds.
I'm OK... Not sleeping half enough, of course, and most of the time feeling a little dizzy, but things will all be better in a few months.
I am still enjoying writing very much... I feel I shall miss it when it's all done. To which remark a colleague replied, "I think you're a little crazy".
The one thing I do take care of, is... me. My skin, my hair, making myself pretty every morning (all with 100% natural stuff). Never mind that Seb isn't here to see it. This might sound futile, but it helps me feel upbeat day after day. I've even started another little blog to keep track of what I do better nature-wise, to help me keep at my routine, etc. ;)
Thank you Lisa, for giving my blog an Excellent award... I am not sure how I may have deserved it, considering the scarcity and poor content of my posts these days... but it warmed my heart! :)
I can absolutely not nominate 10 blogs. The blogs in my sidebar are the most excellentest blogs to me... yet the list is hardly long enough!
I think I would rather like to nominate excellent commenters... And that would be all of you, friends, who keep me going daily with your wonderful, disinterested, loving comments. You have no idea... How much it keeps me going... And smiling. Thank you!
The Burda trenchcoat, alas, hasn't changed one bit since you last saw it. When I do decide to take a break, I am too tired to sew. I feel I would only make mistakes.
Thank goodness, whenever I feel tired, or a little lonely, my fluffy love is always ready for a cuddle. She is just the sweetest cat ever... ma P'tite Mignonne à moi !
Until next time... Hope this finds you all happy! :)

How nice to see both you and your kitty! I do hope she is getting better - she really is such a good friend and so beautiful, too.
Continue to pamper and take care of yourself! I think that is something we all tend to forget when we're busy.
Please take care of both of you!
I can understand the love you have for your kitten!!! I love my Asia too! Take care of yourself :-)
Poor Little Cutie! I always feel connected to her since our cat shares her name. She's so pretty.
I hope you are taking care of you. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying writing, but I'm sure your colleague is right that you're a bit nutty :) When you're done writing, you'll have so much time, you won't know what to do with yourself.
Take care, my friend!
Thank you, friends!
Cathy, so much time? Er, not exactly... As soon as I'm done I must start writing a chapter for a book that's due in late July. And the "last-minute" polishing once my supervisor has finished reading it all and before we send it to the jury...
And then, my classes to prepare for next fall.
Oh dear! LOL
Glad to see you're doing OK. I hope your kitty stays well.
Congratulations on the award!
Lovely to hear from you. Glad you and P'tite Mignonne are well!
We are happy to hear from you even if there is no stitching progress. We all have more important priorities from time to time.
YES! Keep to your beauty routine. Most of the women I have met in Paris are so well dressed and elegant. That is a lot to keep up with! I'm sure the trenchcoat will be be beautiful when you have the time to do it right.
Here's a virtual catnip mouse for the Cutie. I know I need my cat fix most every day.
I'm sending "kitty feel better" vibes along to your little sweetie. I'm also glad to hear that you're taking good care of yourself.
I hope that everything remains fine with your sweet girl and with you too!
Contente d'avoir de tes nouvelles...
Biz
grosses papouilles à Ptite Mignonne et biiiizzzz pour toi!
So nice to hear from you :)
I'm happy to see that Petite Mignone looks good despite her operation.
I hope that with the time the call from the sewing machine will be stronger than the one from your keyboard computer !!!
I wish you the smartest inspiration for the end of your work !!!
Thank you for sharing some news with us Isabelle. I know you are going to a buzzy time now and I wish you all the energy and happiness needed to finish it. I am glad to read you are taking good care of yourself. Know that in thoughts I am cheering along the way. Ann.
I'm so sorry to hear P'tite Mignononne has been ill and so glad she's better. Very frightening {{{{hugs}}}} She is definitely much more than 'just a cat'. I have Lulu here on my lap and she send purrs to you both too :)
Glad you are well. Keep looking after yourself and lots of hugs. x
Dear Isabelle,
good to read from you. Petit Mignonne is so adorable, I hope she is allright now. And thank you for the nice comment in my blog :- ).
Best wishes,
Katrin
Hello ma chère Isabelle !
Petite crise de paresse aujourd'hui, alors je commente en français !
Je suis très heureuse de lire que vous allez toutes les deux bien, et que vous vous soutenez mutuellement. Etant coincée chez moi, j'avoue que je serais bien perdue si je n'avais pas ma petite ménagerie pour me tenir compagnie ! Surtout que Rémi part vers 7h pour revenir après 20h, alors les journées sont longues ...
Tu as bien raison de prendre soin de toi au quotidien, se savoir jolie est toujours agréable, même si celui qui l'apprécierait le plus n'est pas toujours là !
Je t'embrasse bien fort ma chère Isabelle, bon courage pour ton travail, et milles caresses à la jolie rescapée !
So happy to see you, Isabelle...and Lil' Miss Cutie. Glad she is doing better now! Do be taking care of yourself--in mind, body and spirit...when your busy patch is done, you'll be glad for it. :o) Thinking of you and sending ((HUGS))
How wonderful to find a post from you, Isabelle! And with your sweet kitty love, too! :D
I'm so sorry she needed an operation - I can imagine how scare you were - and I do hope that's the end of her health worries.
Thinking of you with love!
(((P'tite Mignonne & Isabelle)))
Coucou ma douce Isa,
Mom vient de tout me lire. je suis si triste de voir que tu te sens tellement seule et fatiguée en plus. J'espère vraiment que tu vas aller mieux rapidement. heureusement que la P(tite Mimi est avec toi. Elle a été opérée la pauvre puce. C'est vraiment pas top. Tu as tous les pires problèmes en même temps!!
je t'envoie mille bisous. Je pense fort à toi.
Dear friend,
It is so nice to see a post from you :) I am so glad that your kitty is OK :) You have been on my heart and in my thoughts :)
Take care my friend and write when you can :)
((((hugs))))
It is nice to see a post of you again. The kitty looks very happy.
Isabelle, I'm so glad that P'tite Mignonne is feeling better now {{{{hugs}}}} to you both for what must have been a very anxious time.
It's lovely to see a post from you - I'm glad that things are still going well with your writing - you sound very upbeat about it all. Thinking of you :)
Oh no - I had not realized the little lady had been ill. What a fright. I am so glad she is better and that you are doing well :-)
Glad to hear Miss Cutie is doing better! She is such a beautiful cat and companion. Take care of yourself Isabelle!
Glad to hear that things are well, although hectic with all that is going on, and that Miss Cutie is doing better. They are such comfort and companionship and part of the family that it is a huge worry when they are not well. I loved the pictures you posted of her, she's gorgeous. Take care of yourself.
Sue
Sorry to read that your dear chat went through such problems lately but happy things are on the mend and a more happy front these days. It is upsetting and fragile when our pets, more like our family of course, go through health issues.
Hope your week is a good one.
Tanya
I'm glad that you are happy and taking care of yourself. It's nice to hear that you're enjoying writing your thesis. I think that's pretty rare and I'm happy for you. I'm so glad that little Miss Cutie is doing well and helping to keep your spirits up. Our precious furbabies are most certainly like children to us!
Hello my dear Isabelle !
I hope this new week begins well for you, with sun for a change !
I send you big kisses, and big hugs for little Miss Fluffy !
Coucou, je passais pour te faire un gros bisous
Poor kitty! I hope she is feeling better after her operation. She looks so content with you holding her. :) I had a nice browse through your sewing posts-- it all looks fantastic.
How wonderful to see a new post from you. I am glad you are coming through the hard times with a good spirit...so beauitful on the outside and also on the inside. Your lovely kitty looks like she is doing well also. I simply dread when one of my cats is ill. It is so heart-breaking because they do not understand illness like humnas do. But I see she gets all the love and attention she needs from you. Best wishes to both of you.
Oh, flûte, mon message n'a pas marché !!! Je recommence !
Ma chère amie !
J'espère que tu passes un agréable week-end et que le beau soleil qui brille sur la région Rhône-Alpes envoie ses rayons jusqu'à Paris.
Je t'embrasse bien fort, et envoie une flopée de caresses à la jolie Mignonne !
Isabelle,
I'm so happy to hear that you and P'tite Mignonne are taking such wonderful care of each other. So very sweet. Be well.
Susan
hope you're ok!
I also think it's important to pamper ourselves in difficult times and it really helps to cope with each new day!
Your hair looks stunning in the last pic! you have to share your secrets !

Dear Isabelle,
So glad to know that you are ok and that little kitty is ok too. I know how much she means to you.
It must have been scary when you found she was not too well.
Take care and keep well.
Gros bisous.
des gros kissous pour ma chere Isabelle...
comme je suis curieuse et...pas "très chat" ;o) (mais ne le dis à personne :o) )j'attends la suite du trenchcoat!
