I wish I had one of those emoticons to use right now

Amazing day in NYC today.
We had a few chilly days and for a minute, 
we all thought that winter was already entering into our lives...
but nope, we were wrong. 
Summer (and soon Fall) is fighting back
and giving us a chance to still enjoy the sun 
and the greatness of this city 
when the extremes don't overtake it.


I have to confess that I was considering closing the doors of thisthatyotrascosasmas.
I know I have said that before BUT this time was for real.
I even told my friend, Noe, about it.

But then, I looked at it and told myself 
hey, this space doesn't need to be one of those areas in my life 
that have to be structured, 
controlled or driven by a clear goal and direction.

This was my blank canvas and I like the idea of keeping it that way.
A visual memory book of myself through the passing of time.
thisthatyotrascosasmas evolves and adapts to the "Silvia" of the moment
and that's ok, right?

I feel pressured and judged by all the amazingly well curated
organized and "make sense" blogs out there and sometimes
my lack of all the above freezes me and me bloquea, vamos.

But what the heck, this is me and who I am.
And this is my space. Not for commercial or promotional use
but for my own personal use, an avenue to express myself 
- even if at times sounds dull
 and for you who from time to time may get something out of reading me.

So, I will continue to be around
and thisthatyotrascosasmas will continue to be a digital shadow
of me, of my moments, my likes and my experiences.




You didn't get rid of me.

On the bright side


It's been gone for so, so long
but decided to bring it back.

It's an important archive of mine.

On a grey Labor Day 
(which for many symbolizes the end of summer)
I share with y'all
the images below:
