Green Is As Green Does

Awww, seesh. Could´t find that on the internet, how come? Will take a pic - was a T-Shirt my Bro brought me home from a holiday: Kermit sitting on a bench, white-red suitcase by his shoes, à la Forrest Gump :-)

Anyhows (I´ll come to frogs later, too)...

Monday we went to the hardware-Store to bring back a piece for my bike we didn´t need for the repair after the theft.

Was 3 euro something and I came back with... A - Whole - New - Bike!!!!!!

After I was fighting around with the darn ole, heavy bike my Mom gave me, we saw - and took - this "beauty" - a leightweight for only 99 euro! Sadly a men´s bike (the women´s-version was heavier), but I´ll learn!



Still gotta say thank you online - there was a really very, very friendly woman at the store who gave us tools and didn´t mind to find the right air pump for us/the bike either (I certainly thanked her personally straight away, just wanna make sure her boss knows about it, too)! First thing to do in my lunch-break tomorrow!
Really, she was obviously enjoying her job, it was great. (Here in Germany?) We have the saying "the customer is the King" - and I felt like one!

Took the bike up into our apartment and made use of the leftover paint from the now green shelf, and - tadaa:





Doesn´t look like a super-new lightweight bike anymore, no? Just like an ole bike not worth stealing! Cross your fingers people buy that!
