Did You Know .... Forrest Gump

I indeed never noticed the different   colorization per decade - did you?

And Lt. Dan...

As we saw this movie in the world´s oldest open air cinema, Sunpictures in Broome, Western Australia...


Ahhh, it was wonderful how the kitsch-night-sky really blended into the  real sky, I´ll never forget that!

T STands For BeauTiful Rain!

 

 
... as is Blogger, less sweet.
Had a post. And blogger took it all away, and why not? It´s for free... So.. anew...
I try to be (less) sweet and join Elizabeth´s T today! 
 
The journal:
 

 
Monday: Well, I was not singing, nor dancing but I learned: my sneakers are not rainproof!
 

 
 I went through lovely, heavy rain to ALDIschönen Sachen, as my T calls it ("all the nice things" as we often went together and we often grabbed non-food-articles). I got fun socks! Will show some SITAR.
We have May and it was so cold I could see my breath coming out of my nose - am I a "hot chick"? 
 

Tuesday: Door-bell. A post-mail-woman, packed up like it was deepest winter, oh I felt so for/with her. Glasses fogged, she had a hard time to do her job! Glovies in the way, too, argh.
I.Can.Not.Leave.The.House cause Ingo gets mail all the time!
 
 

 
Wednesday: Bea at the check-out, so I went. Me: T-Shirt, jumper, winter-jacket. Dude in front: Shorts, armless shirt. Bea to me when he was done: "You freeze just seeing him, huh?!" He... no kidding... ´d bought 24 eggs - egg... German word also for "balls", that´s what I said. Laughter :-)
Later EDEKA. Cash-out. Met a women. We had a nice loooong chat after. 
 
  
Thursday:  Ingo gave me a new "TV", mine was "broken"  - it had the "no sound-symbol" and after searching 45 minutes I gave up. How dumb can one be. I by accident hit that button on the remote!!!
But now I have a better program and learned. 
Other lazy day off as in public holiday.
 
 
Friday: Went to Jysk to get a matress and Ingo´s chair, a nice 1 hour-walk and they sent me a taxi-driver - despite my request and explanation how heavy the stuff to transport is... with a bad back, just like mine.
Went for help, all good but then at home... I ruined mine. 
Yikes for getting old. 
 

Weekend: Saturday: Back-pain. Ingo assembled his chair. 24kg, what chair weighs that much?! That´s half my weight, no wonder my back said good bye.
Ingo gave me our IKEA-mammoth to rest my feet on.
And...
 
 
Sunday: Löwenzahn about bees. 
 

Die Maus was wonderful:
 
Ever since I watched Die Maus (1975) Christoph wears green shirts!
 
 
Interesting fact about him: "Since 2002, he has led the adult course 'The Mouse Principle: The Art of Explaining It Simply' every two years at the Federal Academy for Cultural Education in Wolfenbüttel." - Must look out for that!!
Wolfenbüttel is 15 km from here.
 
And then one of my fav fairy tales, King Frog! 
 
 
Heinrich, der Wagen bricht!“ „Nein, mein Herr, der Wagen nicht, es ist ein Band von meinem Herzen, das da lag in großen Schmerzen, als Ihr in dem Brunnen saßt, als ein Frosch Ihr wart.
 
 
"Heinrich, the carriage is breaking!" "No, sir, not the carriage, it is a band from my heart that lay there in great pain when you sat in the well, when you were a frog." 
 

What is (one of) your fav fairy tale(s)?
 
Munchy:
 

Waffles for ice-cream!
 
Henry 🦁 
 

 Happy T-Day!

Let´s Go

 
 
This was on the way to Yagan Square, Perth
I found no artist, sadly, but here are some details following and at Nicole´s you can find out about the symbols
 

 

 
 
 
 

 Have a great start to the week!
A P.S. thanks to Tom! I quote: "...Google Lens says that this mural is titled "Alija Djinda Mia - The stars will take us home". It was created by Noongar artist Justin Martin in collaboration with Susan Milne and Greg Stonehouse. The artwork tells stories of celestial bodies in the Noongar culture, layering Perth's railway lines with constellations to connect where communities gather."
