Working and dining room and a mishap







This is our dining and working room after last week's spring cleaning. 
Unfortunately the photos are a bit dark... 






Then I had an accident yesterday afternoon. I made an errant step while carrying large boxes down to the cellar and hurt my foot. It's swollen and it hurts badly. Whether it is a ligament rupture or a ligament strain is not yet clear. Fact is that I can't walk very well and need walking sticks and a bandage. I had to buy new shoes which are just comfortable but not nice at all. When I left the medical office with all the utensils I joked that I feel really rejuvenated and sexy... On top of it I do not know whether I can go to Paris next weekend... Please keep your fingers crossed that the healing goes quickly!

I hope everything is OK with you and that you are having a splendid weekend!

  1. Dear Christa - that is just awful, so sorry. Hope it is not as bad as you think and that your Paris trip will not be affected.
    I have just posted the Paris cemetery for you, but you certainly will not be able to walk around there.
    Get better soon, and do take care.

  3. Poor Christa... I do hope you get better, so you can have your little Paris break and eat lots of onion soup!

    I really hope there's nothing broken and that you can have your well deserved break! Poor you!

    I had to take my husband to the hospital, as he has been very sick, due to a Penicillin allregy> I was truly beginning to think we might not be able to go away, but... I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

    Please get better... I feel sorry for you!

    PS: the view out of your windows is MAGNIFICENT! Who needs paintings when you can look at such beautiful buildings?

    BIG HUGS... get well soon!

  5. Hello Christa:
    Oh dear, we are so sorry to read of your accident. These things happen so easily but are so disruptive to normal life. We do so hope that your travel plans will not be affected as you were looking forward to Paris so much. Our fingers and toes are crossed that it will still be possible.

    Your dining room which also doubles as a workroom is such a beautiful space with such an interesting outlook. It certainly would be a pleasure to eat in there and gaze at the view. Lovely!

  6. Dear Christa--I am so sorry! That must be painful. I have a feeling you will get to Paris. Fingers crossed.

    Your dining room workroom is beautiful. Those windows! Shelves! The table!

    See how many exclamation points you've drive me to use. :)

  8. Hi Christina,
    So sorry to hear about your foot. I hope it wasn't your ligaments and you have been able to still go to Paris. I tore my ligaments and I was out of action for a week and I can still get pain occasionally 3 years later!

    Your dining room is beautiful and so was your lounge in your previous post.I have been away so I am catching up on all I have missed!

    Oh dear, I am so sorry to hear of your accident and like your followers will be keeping you in prayer that you heal fully and your trip to Paris will go as scheduled.
    I must say the crutches and support are very cool and youthful. Your dining room and neighbourhood is just bautiful.
    Sincere good wishes
