I know the feeling Judith...

I got LOADS of work for the school too, and not started yet and I feel so guilty..   But I'm doing other things...

Tidying up the house, sorting out clothes from wardrobes, etc...

Cooking ( my hobby).. etc etc

Cor, I must sound like the perfect housewife  [blink] ( but not desperate !!) [:D]

How brave you are Judith !

If you want to practice your French on the phone, you know , I'd be ok with that, Judith..

I'm tired , as always, ( I get up too early..)

Here is a song in French for you, with the lyrics

 Dans les yeux d Emilie

Dans son quartier du vieux Québec
Les rues ont l'air d'avoir l'accent
Et l'an deux mille voisine avec
Les maisons grises du vieux temps
Mais l'hiver vient d'éclater
Le Saint-Laurent est prisonnier
D'un décembre qui va bien durer six mois
Quand les jours ressemblent aux nuits
Sans éclaircie à espérer
Qui peut croire que l'été nous reviendra

Moi, j'avais le soleil
Jour et nuit dans les yeux d'Émilie
Je réchauffais ma vie à son sourire
Moi, j'avais le soleil
Nuit et jour dans les yeux de l'amour
Et la mélancolie au soleil d'Émilie
Devenait joie de vivre

Dans son quartier du vieux Québec
Quand les toits redeviennent verts
Quand les enfants ont les pieds secs
On tourne le dos à l'hiver
C'est la fête du printemps
Le grand retour du Saint-Laurent
On dirait que les gens sortent de la terre
Mais Émilie n'est plus à moi
J'ai froid pour la première fois
Je n'ai plus ni sa chaleur, ni sa lumière

Moi, j'avais le soleil
Jour et nuit dans les yeux d'Émilie
Je réchauffais ma vie à son sourire
Moi, j'avais le soleil
Nuit et jour dans les yeux de l'amour
Et la mélancolie au soleil d'Émilie
Devenait joie de vivre

En ce temps-là j'avais le soleil
Jour et nuit dans les yeux d'Émilie
Je réchauffais ma vie à son sourire
Moi, j'avais le soleil
Nuit et jour dans les yeux de l'amour
Et la mélancolie au soleil d'Émilie
Devenait joie de vivre

It's about a man who misses his ex girlfriend, he says he never felt the cold in winter in Quebec while she was with him, but now summer's come and she's gone away, ... and he's cold for the first time..........
