I took this picture for Tony’s group Hats for Haiti.
But after all I don’t think it is a real hat.
So I have to make another one.
Now I could use this for Z52X

nr. 110 – Send in the clowns, originally uploaded by mevrouwmikmak.

or even better

Don’t you love farce?
My fault I fear,
I thought that you’d want what I want,
Sorry my dear
But where are the clowns
There ought to be clowns
Quick send in the clowns

Isn’t it rich, isn’t it queer
Losing my timing this late in my career
And where are the clowns
Quick send in the clowns
Don’t bother, they’re here.

nr. 109 – Do you know where you’re going to?, originally uploaded by mevrouwmikmak.

So much more detail in Big and Black

Do you know where you’re going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Do you get what you’re hoping for?
When you look behind you, there are no open doors
What are you hoping for?
Do you know?

Once, when we were standing still in time
Chasin’ the fantasies that filled our minds
You knew how I loved you but my spirit was free
Laughin’ at the questions that you once asked of me

Do you know where you’re going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Now, looking back at all we’ve planned,
We let so many dreams just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long before we’ll see?
How sad the answers to those questions can be

Do you know where you’re going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Some time ago Merel pointed at me smoking, and said I didn’t smoke in my 365.
Although she is not completly right (she just can’t help that
I did one even before my 365 started)
I wanted to do a smoking shot somehow.
So here it is, if it is bothering you that I smoke, remember it is killing me .

Do you wanna know your future?

If you click you will see this big!

Unfortunately I can not tell your future.
I can tell a few things about my past since I have been tagged by sugrdva to tell 10 thing you should know about me:
1. In my childhood I was a shy girl, and a part of me still is, although nobody notice because I always cover it up with my big mouth.
2. If I could live my life again I would have done some things different, but still i do not regret a single moment.
3 . The greatest love I have ever experienced is the love for my children.
4 . I love to write lyrics, although I only have been taking pictures last year.
I can’t seem to make time for it.
5. I used to be a hairdresser in a former life and belonged to the best of the county back then, I did a lot of shows and presentations.
6. I used to be a tour guide in a former life and lived all over the world, every time for a period of 5 or 6 months.
7. I have a disease , it is called HMS (or in Dutch).
The last years the pain is gaining and my abilities are less.
I do not know where it ends, i only know it will not disappear.
The good thing about is: I still can get old with it.
And I made the choice to just go and life my live and handle it, when things are getting worse.
8 . There was a time ( about 30 years) that I really did believe, I wasn’t creative at all. Other people had to point that out for me.
9 . Both my parents are still alive and I am really happy they do.
10. I hate hypocritical people.

I will not pass this on, since I usualy do not participate in things like this.
But hey, the fun of making your own rules, gives the advantage of bending them whenever you like.

Do you wanna know the future?
Just keep following this stream, so we will learn it together.
