Full speed ahead



I went to the city today, actually I did cause
a) it´s too hot for the gym (no aircon)
b) I needed to go to my favorite drugstore, dm (german)

To b) I only bought facial soap. I didn´t go for the new "chocolate-banana-shower gel" - eeek, just terrible!

There was a blood-donation-van in front of the book-shop and since I had my donation pass with me I went in. Plus I got a voucher for a free meal at Mc Donald´s.

Oh, seeesh! Very comfy chairs they have in those vans, I must say. I wanted to go shopping afterwards but was guided to Mc Donald´s instead - they forced me to have a Coke and a meal straight away! At 5:30!

Went shopping afterwards, colorful pics are to come, and when I came out the sky was dark. Still hot and muggy, but dark.

NOTE TO SELF: Don´t speed on the bike after donating blood - on a very hot day - ... anymore.
Get wet by rain next time. You´re better off that way.

AM I ... getting old WORN OUT!
I added the tag "health" some posts ago, that´s a proof, no?


This... is not a complaint about heat - I love heat, this is real, happy life!
Even with Ingo being sick and far away.
Despite having the order to not call him and not being called by him. OK, he has nothing to tell. I miss him much and would love to talk to him, but he needs to rest, obviously.

Well Done donating blood even if it did lead straight to McDonald's! I hope Ingo gets home soon

;-) Yips, was "a pain in the ass" to have to have something from Mc D :-)

Aw, well, thank you, "Boss?", seems it´ll take some time with Ingo, he called me today at least and is a wee bit better...

How is Ingo? Is he getting better? By the way, that chocolate-banana shower gel sounds really nice :)

I thought so, too, of the chocolate-banana-stuff... I opened it to have a quick "sniff" and it was eeeewww - don´t go for it!

Aw, well, thank you for asking, Sarah! We still don´t know when he can come "home". He is some 260 km away at his brother´s hospital, now he has "only" one drainage left.
When he comes home, he goes to rehabilitation to gain weight and rebuild the muscles.

But well - after all he will be ok some time! There are people out there who know they won´t, so I don´t complain...
