L\u00e9thargie – lethargy<\/span><\/strong>
\nOn les sauve du Covid-19, on les tue quand m\u00eame. Les vieux se laissent s\u2019\u00e9teindre car le souffle de leur vie c\u2019\u00e9tait de revoir les seuls qui comptent pour eux, les plus proches\u00a0: les petits-enfants, dont on les prive pour les sauver.<\/strong>
\nWe save them from Covid-19, we kill them anyway. The old people allow themselves to be extinguished because the breath of their life was to see the only ones who matter to them, the closest: the grandchildren, from whom they are deprived in order to save them.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Plus amusant\u00a0: la consommation de sucre explose depuis le premier confinement. On a besoin de compensation, \u00e7a tombe bien, c\u2019est la saison des papillotes. Un de nos visiteurs (il va se sentir vis\u00e9\u00a0!) en est tout \u00e0 fait conscient, il a besoin de sucreries. Et apr\u00e8s tout, n\u2019est-ce-pas le syst\u00e8me de consolation des petits, un bonbon pour gu\u00e9rir une \u00e9corchure\u00a0? Nous retrouvons notre \u00e2me d\u2019enfant\u00a0: au lieu de faire du saut \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9lastique, du parapente ou un vol en montgolfi\u00e8re, ou encore de la plong\u00e9e au milieu de requins soi-disant tueurs, ou encore des stages de survie dans des for\u00eats sauvages, nous avons recours \u00e0 des petites douceurs, qui nous rappellent la douceur de vivre. J\u2019aime les choses simples.<\/strong>
\nMore fun: sugar consumption has exploded since the first confinement. We need some compensation, that’s good, it’s sweet things season. One of our visitors (he will feel targeted!) Is quite aware of this, he needs sweets. And after all, isn’t that the consolation system of the little ones, a candy to heal a scrape? We rediscover our childhood soul: instead of bungee jumping, paragliding or a hot air balloon flight, or diving among so-called killer sharks, or even survival courses in forests wild, we have recourse to little sweets, which remind us of the sweetness of life. I like the simple things.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Nous, l\u00e0 je parle de Paul et moi, surtout moi, nous sommes toujours entre deux chaises, tellement \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9cart de la \u00ab\u00a0vraie\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> vie que pour ma part j\u2019en oublie m\u00eame le masque. Je l\u2019ai port\u00e9 le 17 d\u00e9cembre pour la derni\u00e8re fois, la prochaine sera le 14 janvier, dans ces deux cas \u00e0 l\u2019occasion des examens m\u00e9dicaux. Oui, je ne bouge pas d\u2019ici. Quand je pars marcher avec Paul, nous ne prenons m\u00eame pas la voiture qui nous permettrait de changer d\u2019horizon. On sort et on file \u00e0 droite ou \u00e0 gauche, plus loin encore une fois \u00e0 droite ou \u00e0 gauche. En r\u00e9alit\u00e9 il y a peu de choix.<\/strong>
\nWe, here I am talking about Paul and I, especially me, are always between two chairs, so far removed from \u00ab\u00a0real\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> life that I personally forget the mask. I wore it on December 17th for the last time, the next one will be on January 14th, in both cases during the medical exams. Yes, I\u2019m not moving from here. When I go for a walk with Paul, we don’t even take the car that would allow us to change the horizon. We go out and walk to the right or to the left, further to the right or to the left. In reality there is little choice.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00c7a me convient. Avec Paul nous bavardons de choses ou d\u2019autres, nous avons toujours des choses \u00e0 nous dire. Nous ne vivons pas \u00e0 moiti\u00e9, mais un peu au ralenti, un peu \u00e0 l\u2019air du temps\u00a0: il fait le plus souvent gris, froid et humide\u2026 Nous sommes peut-\u00eatre un peu, un tout petit peu en l\u00e9thargie. J\u2019ai pris le 8 janvier mon premier bain de soleil de l\u2019ann\u00e9e, le seul pour le moment, l\u2019ensoleillement fut bref.<\/strong>
\nIt’s OK for me. With Paul we chat about things and other things, we always have things to say to each other. We don’t live half-life, but a little slow, a little trendy: it is mostly gray, cold and humid … We are perhaps a little, a little bit in lethargy. I took my first sunbath of the year on January 8, the only one so far, the sunshine was brief.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Nos noces d\u2019or en 2023\u00a0: nous venons de passer quarante-huit ans de mariage. Nous avons encore des trucs \u00e0 nous dire, \u00e7a tombe bien.<\/strong>
\nOur golden anniversary in 2023: we have just spent forty-eight years of marriage. We still have things to say to each other, that’s good.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Mes proches semblent souvent surpris de ne pas me trouver au trente-sixi\u00e8me dessous, handicap\u00e9e comme je le suis. Je pourrais bien entendu passer mes journ\u00e9es \u00e0 pleurer sur mon sort, encore faudrait-il qu\u2019il f\u00fbt triste\u00a0! Je l\u2019ai d\u00e9j\u00e0 dit, Paul m\u2019aide autant que j\u2019en ai besoin\u00a0; je fais le minimum dont je suis capable, mais je n\u2019h\u00e9site pas \u00e0 lui demander son aide (cinquante fois par jour pour remettre l\u2019orth\u00e8se que je passe mon temps \u00e0 enlever\u00a0!) en essayant de ne pas trop interf\u00e9rer avec ses activit\u00e9s, et pour moi \u00e7a fonctionne.<\/strong>
\nMy relatives often seem surprised not to find me below thirty-sixth: very sad, handicapped as I am. I could of course spend my days crying over my fate, in case it were sad! I’ve said it before, Paul helps me as much as I need; I do the minimum I am capable of, but I do not hesitate to ask for his help (fifty times a day to put back the orthosis that I spend my time removing!) trying not to interfere too much with his activities, and for me it works.\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nLolo va au march\u00e9 en v\u00e9lo m\u00eame s\u2019il fait moins quatre\u00a0: il est tellement emball\u00e9 \u00e0 ces moments qu\u2019on le croit gros. Il est content comme \u00e7a. Il a ramass\u00e9 les feuilles du platane et les a transport\u00e9es \u00e0 l\u2019autre bout du terrain\u00a0: pour avoir d\u00e9j\u00e0 fait ce boulot, je sais \u00e0 quel point c\u2019est fastidieux.<\/strong>
\nLolo rides his bike to the market even though it’s minus four: he is so wrapped at these times you think he’s fat. He is happy like that. He picked up the leaves from the plane tree and carried them to the other end of the field: having already done this job, I know how tedious it is.\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nIl est abonn\u00e9 \u00e0 la revue \u00ab\u00a0D\u00e9croissance\u00a0\u00bb, qui a critiqu\u00e9 un jour les tiny house<\/em>, bien lourdes \u00e0 d\u00e9placer, tr\u00e8s gourmandes en carburant, alors il a \u00e9crit \u00e0 la revue pour dire qu\u2019il habite une tiny<\/em> mais qu\u2019il n\u2019est pas le consommateur d\u00e9crit dans l\u2019article. D\u2019ailleurs il a enlev\u00e9 les roues \u00e0 sa maison. Un journaliste est alors venu lui faire une visite tr\u00e8s sympa. J\u2019ai h\u00e2te de lire l\u2019article \u00e0 venir.<\/strong>
\nHe subscribes to the magazine \u00ab\u00a0D\u00e9croissance\u00a0\u00bb, which once criticized tiny houses<\/em>, which were very heavy to move, very greedy in fuel, so he wrote to the magazine to say that he lived in a tiny<\/em> but that he is not the consumer described in the article. Besides, he took off the wheels of his house. A journalist then came to pay him a very nice visit. I can’t wait to read the next article.\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nLe journaliste est venu en v\u00e9lo depuis Bourgoin, et reparti pour Lyon en v\u00e9lo – courageux, ce jour-l\u00e0 aussi il ne faisait pas chaud du tout\u00a0!<\/strong>
\nThe journalist came by bike from Bourgoin, and left for Lyon by bike – brave, that day too it was not hot at all!\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nNous rencontrons peu d\u2019amis, un peu toujours les m\u00eames puisque tout est devenu si compliqu\u00e9\u00a0; nous voulions depuis longtemps inviter Liliane et Fred\u00a0: cela voulait dire Lolo et Nanath aussi, bien entendu. Le 15 d\u00e9cembre je racontais sur ce blog leur balade musicale dans les rues d\u2019un village, balade qui a fait l\u2019effet d\u2019un bon bol d\u2019oxyg\u00e8ne aux participants enthousiasm\u00e9s. Mettez Lolo et Fred dans la m\u00eame pi\u00e8ce, toutes les conditions sont r\u00e9unies pour une impro musicale. Nanath nous a chant\u00e9 de la bossa nova. Nous avons eu de bons fous rires et un moment musical bien plaisant.<\/strong>
\nWe meet few friends, always a bit the same since everything has become so complicated; for a long time we wanted to invite Liliane and Fred: that meant Lolo and Nanath too, of course. On December 15, I recounted on this blog their musical stroll through the streets of a village, a stroll that gave the enthusiastic participants a good boost. Put Lolo and Fred in the same room, all the conditions are met for a musical improvisation. Nanath sang bossa nova to us. We had a lot of laughs and a very pleasant musical moment.\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nUn autre jour, Dom, S\u00e9verine et S\u00e9b sont venus f\u00eater mon anniversaire. Un soixante-neuf un peu particulier, en principe je serai plus agile pour les septante\u00a0!<\/strong>
\nAnother day, Dom, S\u00e9verine and S\u00e9b came to celebrate my birthday. A somewhat unusual sixty-nine, in principle I will be more agile for the seventies!<\/span>
\n<\/strong>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nJ\u2019ai \u00e9t\u00e9 g\u00e2t\u00e9e par tout le monde, et pour cl\u00f4turer dignement la f\u00eate nous avons fait un moment de musique\u00a0: Nanath \u00e0 la fl\u00fbte traversi\u00e8re, Paul \u00e0 l\u2019accord\u00e9on, Lolo \u00e0 la guitare et moi au micro (dans la main gauche). Je ne demande qu\u2019\u00e0 recommencer et c\u2019est tout \u00e0 fait envisageable. Inutile de pr\u00e9ciser que plus personne n\u2019est en mode l\u00e9thargie.<\/strong>
\nI was pampered by everyone, and to end the party with dignity we had a moment of music: Nanath on the transverse flute, Paul on the accordion, Lolo on the guitar and me on the microphone (in the left hand) . I’m just asking to start over and it’s totally possible. Needless to say, no one is in lethargy mode anymore.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Nous avons m\u00eame \u00e9t\u00e9 en mode franche rigolade pour une raison que je vais garder secr\u00e8te quelques temps.<\/span><\/strong>
\nWe even went into full laughs for a reason I’m going to keep a secret for a while.\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nOn s\u2019\u00e9merveille\u00a0! – We marvel!<\/span><\/strong>
\n\u00ab\u00a0Le monde ne mourra pas par manque de merveilles, mais par manque d\u2019\u00e9merveillement.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> Ce n\u2019est pas de Vincent Munier, mais quand il cite ces jolies paroles, on croirait que \u00e7a vient de lui. Vincent s\u2019\u00e9merveille.<\/a> Ne l\u2019appelons pas trop vite \u00ab\u00a0photographe animalier\u00a0\u00bb, car il est capable d\u2019oublier d\u2019appuyer sur le d\u00e9clencheur, tout \u00e0 la joie d\u2019assister \u00e0 un spectacle fantastique. On l\u2019appelle le \u00ab\u00a0pape\u00a0\u00bb de la photo animali\u00e8re et je ne pense pas qu\u2019il l\u2019appr\u00e9cie. La notori\u00e9t\u00e9 est venue mais ne l\u2019a pas chang\u00e9. Quand il a voulu suivre une formation de photographe, quand il a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 qu\u2019il s\u2019agissait de formater les participants, il a abandonn\u00e9 pour rester sur son propre chemin. Il s\u2019y sent bien. Je pense que s\u2019il prend des photos, c\u2019est pour les autres, c\u2019est pour nous, pour nous offrir \u00e0 son tour les belles images qui se sont offertes \u00e0 lui.<\/strong>
\n\u00ab\u00a0The world will not die for lack of wonders, but for lack of wondering.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> It\u2019s not by Vincent Munier, but when he quotes those pretty words, you would think they come from him. Vincent is amazed<\/a>. Let’s not call him a \u00ab\u00a0wildlife photographer\u00a0\u00bb too hastily because he is able to forget to press the shutter button, all in the joy of watching a fantastic spectacle. He’s called the \u00ab\u00a0pope\u00a0\u00bb of wildlife photography and I don’t think he likes it. The notoriety came but didn’t change him. When he wanted to train as a photographer, when he realized it was about formatting the participants, he gave up to stay on his own path. He feels good there. I think that if he takes pictures, it is for others, it is for us, to give us in turn the beautiful images that are offered to him.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

On s\u2019\u00e9merveille moins\u00a0: devenez bandit – We marvel less: become a bandit<\/span><\/strong>
\nJe trouve ceci sur le site d\u2019une mairie, sans autre explication\u00a0: il s\u2019agit d\u2019un code utilis\u00e9 par les cambrioleurs. Quand ils vous ont fait leur d\u00e9plaisante visite, la police trouve parfois un de ces signes \u00e9crit sur le portail. Et si je les y copiais tous<\/em>, \u00e7a donnerait quoi\u00a0?<\/strong>
\nI find this on a town hall website, without further explanation: it is a code used by burglars. When they’ve made their unpleasant visit, the police sometimes find one of these signs written on the gate. And if I copied them all<\/em> there, what would it be?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Femme seule – woman alone<\/span>
\nCambrioler le dimanche – burglarize on Sunday<\/span>

\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Quand on passe \u00ab\u00a0chez\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> Ariane et Renato, maintenant, un gros chien style berger allemand aboie furieusement\u00a0: les nouveaux propri\u00e9taires craignent-ils les cambrioleurs\u00a0? Le portail qui restait ouvert autrefois est maintenant solidement ferm\u00e9. Je n\u2019ai aucune raison de le franchir, bien au contraire\u00a0!<\/strong>
\nWhen we go \u00ab\u00a0to\u00a0\u00bb<\/em> Ariane and Renato, now, a large German Shepherd-style dog barks furiously: are the new owners afraid of burglars? The gate that once remained open is now firmly closed. I have no reason to cross it, on the contrary!\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nOn s\u2019\u00e9merveille avec regret – We marvel with regret<\/span><\/strong>
\nLe concert du nouvel an \u00e0 la Fenice de Venise<\/a> s\u2019est tenu avec des musiciens masqu\u00e9s.Pour les instruments \u00e0 vent les musiciens sont s\u00e9par\u00e9s par des cloisons transparentes. M\u00eame les choristes sont masqu\u00e9s. Seuls les solistes chantent \u00e0 visage nu, impossible de faire autrement\u00a0! Je suis partag\u00e9e entre le plaisir de voir une preuve de la combativit\u00e9 des artistes dans l\u2019existence m\u00eame de ce concert, et la tristesse \u00e0 cause des conditions dans lesquelles il se tient. <\/strong>
\nThe New Year’s concert at the Fenice in Venice<\/a> was held with masked musicians. For wind instruments the musicians are separated by transparent partitions. Even the choristers are masked. Only the soloists sing with naked faces, impossible to do otherwise! I am divided between the pleasure of seeing proof of the combativeness of the artists in the very existence of this concert, and the sadness because of the conditions in which it is held.\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Comme souvent, comme toujours, ma rubrique hebdomadaire est un joyeux fourre-tout. Il s\u2019agit en gros de r\u00e9sumer une semaine en deux pages, et je ne peux pas toujours lier joliment les choses dont je souhaite parler. Quand l\u2019hiver et mon \u00e9paule en folie se liguent pour que notre quotidien reste fort plat, je me demande parfois si je ne devrais pas mettre mon blog en pause jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce qu\u2019il arrive quelque chose d\u2019exceptionnel. <\/strong>
\nAs often, as always, my weekly column is a happy catch-all. It\u2019s basically summing up a week in two pages, and I can’t always tie the things I want to talk about nicely. When winter and my shoulder in madness come together to keep our everyday life very flat, I sometimes wonder if I shouldn’t put my blog on hiatus until something exceptional happens.\"\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nL\u2019exceptionnel pour moi, c\u2019est le prochain examen m\u00e9dical, o\u00f9 je devrais apprendre comment mon proche futur va se d\u00e9rouler.<\/strong>
\nThe exceptional one for me is the next medical exam, where I should learn how my near future will unfold.<\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nEt pour finir une petite info, un bon signe\u00a0: je tape des deux mains\u00a0!<\/strong>
\nAnd to finish a little info, a good sign: I type with both hands!\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
