Welcome home!
Hello Everybody!
It is time to start another week. I am so happy that you are interested in my blog.
I would have liked to write earlier than Monday evening but I have been really busy with Csilla. Let me tell you the story of my weekend.
On Saturday we left our house at 7pm and went to Bratislava. Bratislava is the capital city of Slovakia and there is the airport that is not very big. Nowadays more and more people want to fly so our airport is under refurbishment to make it bigger. It is about 60 km from our house. I was in a fever so I did not have a bite all day. We arrived there a little early and we were waiting in the hall. At that time some planes arrived and we were looking at the people and asking each other: “Could they be people from London?” “No, they are too brown, they must come from Dubrovnik /Croatia/”, said my son. Shortly afterwards my daughter stood in the door and I was overjoyed. All my nervousness disappeared like a shot and I felt as right as rain. We hugged each other. It was a terrific feeling. On the way home she was speaking and speaking. And she had continued the talking after we arrived home so we did not get to bed until midnight.
On Sunday morning I prepared three courses for lunch: meat soup, meat dish, potato salad with mayonnaise and cake. After lunch we watched Formula 1 on TV. My husband likes the excitement of car racing and in the course of time I came to like it , too. This weekend the championship was in Monza. The race was very exciting. In a month the race will be in Japan in Suzuka. Do you like the F1?
Later we went to visit the grandparents both from my side and from my husband麓s side. As Csilla says: “We saw puppies and doggies and bunnies and kitties”. She spoke about her experiences as a student in England and as a waitress in a restaurant. Everyone was really happy to see her again.
Getting back to the issue of rooting the trees out in our garden, my son was working there again together with my husband. Today he shovelled the soil back into the hole and this time, he broke the shovel. Now we have to buy a new digger and a new shovel as well. His blisters on the palm of his hand have already healed.
Today I am sending you some pictures of our house and our garden. I really look forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Anita, It is nice to hear that you had a great weekend with your daughter. You have a nice house. I noticed the white car in driveway in the first picture. Is it a race car? Just joking... No, I am not in car racing. However, if I was, NASCAR would probably interest me more than Formula 1 because NASCAR is here in America, and it appears to be the most popular auto racing organization in the country. However, I know a family who race cars as a hobby. That includes everyone in the family -- even the mother. She is into it as well. It is easy to see how the father and the sons would enjoy the sport, but the mother? She told me once that when they go to races on weekends, she enjoys knowing where her sons are. She knows that they are not in trouble, besides how could would it be to be a "mother's boy" when she is a race car driver?
Hi Anita, I see that you enjoyed the weekend. How long is your daughter going to be at home? It was a good idea to show the pictures of your house and garden. So, we are nearer to you. I don't like F1. I prefer football but unfortunatelly our national team remained out of the World Cup 2006. I wish you the best for the rest of the month as a blogger

Hello! It seems to me that it was a hectic joyful weekend.Your description remembers me my mother-in-law about 15 years ago.My husband and I we were students and we were living in the capital.Every time we were coming back home she was expecting us with special dishes.We also was making a tour to our grandparents.Known pleasant feelings and emotions!I am grateful to my mother-in-law for these memories.The pictures of your house and garden are picturesque.I wish I could live in such a snug house.Unfortunately we live in a flat now. Bye-bye PS.I hope I didn't make a lot of mistakes ;-)
Hi Anita It's a lovely garden. I like it very much. My mother also like a garden with alots trees and plants like that but in my country, land is expensive and my house is just
Hi Anita, Its really nice to see your house and garden. I really enjoyed to read your blog. Today is my first day entrance into this bolg area. I want to be part of the blogger among others.And it will helps me a lot to improve my english . Bye.
Hi Anita It's a lovely garden. I like it very much. My mother also like a garden with alots trees and plants like that but in my country, land is expensive and my house is just large enough for living. My mum grows some plants on balcony and she takes care them everyday. She wishes she will have a house with beautiful garden when she's old. Now she's 42 and people say that she's still young. She loves me very much although I often have difference of opinion with her. My family is not rich, just normal. Sometimes my family meet some difficulties and my mother tried her best to overcome them. I feel sorry for her and love her much. Iam a silent girl so I never tell her my feeling and I know sometimes she feel sad about me. I feel shy of telling about my feeling so I don't know what to do? Vy

Dear Anita,I hope you are getting better now.It is really beautiful house,I like your gardan very much.And I like the most is the house lived in such a green green world,I could even smell the fresh air outside whenever you get up opening the windows. Talk about F1,do you know that the biggest news in the latest is that Michael Schumacher,the seven-time world champion will retire at the end of this season?
