Women's day.


Women's rights international day was celebrated the 8 th of march and it found its origin on the women's manifestation early in the XXth century in Europe and USA, calling the equality, the better work's conditions and voting right.
The women's rights international day was created in the united nations in 1977. inviting a lot of countries to celebrate it.

It is a day to enhance around the world the opportunity to claim equality, make an assessment about the situation of women in society. Traditionally, groups and women's activists are preparing demonstrations around the world to make their requirements, improve the status of women, celebrate the victories and advances.

There is still much progress to make in many countries, for example in countries like Africa or muslim countries. The women do not have the same rights as the men. In some religions and countries the women can not work and can not go out alone without her husband (for example in Afghanistan the women can not expect sharing jobs and social activities with men).


I hope that the things will change because all women can have the same rights as the men have, in order to improve their status in the society

Do working mums make healthy children?



It is a good question. There are several possible answers. For example, if the mother works, she will have less time to care for her child, to help with the homework, talking to him more often, to share activities with him, to be present in difficult moments of teenage age.
Therefore, I'm not saying that working mothers can not do it, but it's different, they have less time between working all day, then at night when they come back home, they have to cook dinner and clean the house, they have less time to help children with homework, to share things with them.

But there are also negative points when the mother does not work, because the child has the print that the mother is always available for him and she does nothing of the day while the children enjoy it. The children are less autonomous and independent too, therefore their maturity appears a bit later.

In my case my mother did not work all the time, and I am happy because when I need her she is always there, but the problem is that we are always together so it's true that sometimes we disagree for anything! But I must say that I would not change my mum for a mum who works!!

The paint Horse.


Today, I am talking about the beautiful horse: the Paint Horse.
As you can see I love very much the horses, and particularly this breed of horse. This horse is very original in colour, it has a beautiful head and body and it has a good shape.
Its character is amazing, quiet but at the same time reactive.
I think it's one of the best horses, of course it's not a horse to do cross or jumping but it is perfect to do hiking several days along and of course for WESTERN RIDING!
This horse comes from the USA, the cowboys use them for reunification the cattle.
The western is a discipline very hard for the horses, the paint horse and the quarter horse are the only ones able do this discipline, because they are muscular animals, not too tall, they have as well a low centre of gravity for a good manoeuvrability, and they have a rapid acceleration.


The three diferents color of paint horse:

Tobiano:











Overo:









Tovero:













My parents wish to buy two paint horses, because my family love the hiking in the mountains. If we can buy two paint horses, we will let them in France, because the place where my dad lives is very beautiful, in the middle of mountains in the Pyrenees!!!!

A terrible storm in France.


On the night on saturday to sunday, there was terrible flooding in Vendée (atlantic cost in France). Due to a storm the dyke, which protected the city of tide, broke down.
Houses were destroyed by the sea. The people were terrified. Rescuers went as quickly as possible in the most flooded neighbourhoods. They have saved many people but unfortunately there are at least 51 dead and 8 serious injuries.

Now there is a storm a year, is a clear result of climate change. If we do not do anything, storms will happen more frequently and they will do more and more victims.

Crepes party!


The festival of the crepe in France. Every year the same period, in February, we French are celebrating the festival of the crepe.

This festival takes place on the 2nd of february and when we do the first crepe, it must be a piece of money in one hand and fry the crepe on the other hand! Tradition says that it provides prosperity year-round.
We make crepes for all the family and we eat in front a fireplace, we drink tea with it.

To enjoy this famous crepe, we normally put sugar, but we can put a lot of different stuff: jam, maple syrup, nutella, whipped cream, or ice-cream. It all depends on taste.

These crepes which I speak are sweet!
But they are also savory crepes. Especially in Brittany (northern France). crepes are eaten as a main dish with egg, cheese, ham...

I hope that after reading it, you'll want to taste them!

Arthur.


Five years ago, my parents bought to me a second horse, a Hanoverian, ARTHUR.
I was so happy that day. But, one year and a half ago, Arthur became ill, a hoof infection. My parents called veterinarians from different places. The first vet I had was the one doing always the vaccine, also she had treated my other horse for a colic.

But, in this case, she did not know what to do because it was too complicated. So I called the Veterinary University in Barcelona, they have made. The horse seemed to be a little better. Subsequently, I called the last vet who desinfected the hoof every day. But then last Friday my parents and I brought Arthur in France in a clinic for horses. Veterinarians did x-rays, analysis...

By bad luck, the bone was infected. Veterinarians have told us that if they made they should cut across the top, and remove all the flesh and leave only the bones. The horse will have the subsequent 8 months remained attached and lying not to set foot on the floor. It's too much suffering for a horse. A horse needs to gallop in the great outdoors.

It was then euthanized Tuesday morning. Veterinarians gave him a shot and he fell asleep for eternity. I will never forget him. He will remain forever in my heart.


As we say:

"No hoof, no horse"

Arthur, I love you.
