So, yesterday winter was over. Finally!
Spring! Yayyyy....
Meteorologically, that is.
This is reality.
I know. Problems, huh. But it is annoying!
The wind in the arvo did sure hurt, by golly, icy-cold.
Well. Can only get better, right?
At least even at 07:00 pm it´s not dark anymore - we´re on the way to spring for sure!
I (kinda accidentially after a professional cleaning in her place) run into my dentist yesterday and she said I was due "for inspection" indeed. Like... right now, she´s got some time. And - knowing I´m frightened to the bone tooth reassuringly called me "Süße", Sweetie.
Over ten years ago a woman in Wanneroo called me Sweetie, too (I wore a t-shirt with the Australian flag) and a former - also female - doctor called me "Kindchen" - dear child.
A - female - friend, 5 years younger than me - said this is unacceptable "!".
What do you think?
Those people mean it the friendly, reassuring way, so - to me - that´s ok. Even... well. Reassuring.
Those days will be over soon enough anyways, right?
Guess once 50 hits "Sweetie" is outta the question anyways ;-)
Sunny today, maybe spring is on the way? :-)

Our snow has gone for the moment, but they do say it could be back.
Brrr looks chilly in your photographs - stay warm.
All the best Jan
Yes, only 5C, but at least sunny!
Here we're still having high temperatures, 38C today, overnight minimum 22, so not bad for evening.
I find a lot of people in Australia will call you sweetie, dear, darling or love, all meant in a kind way. It doesn't really bother me but I know of people who don't like that. A friend was once called love by an older man and she replied "I'm not your love, so don't ever call me that".
I can't tell you how fab that snow looks to me Iris! Soooo hot here at the moment! Cooler, by that I mean 30C, week coming!
Wow, Sami, 38C in autumn!
Love, yes, (older) women call each other often "Liebes" - from a man that is indeed strange.
Grace, actually the snow is kinda nice. If no wind and you don´t have to drive :-)
Looks beautiful...just so cold! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, beautiful and cold... I think we should have a Pizza for Christmas with those blog-titles :-)
There's been more snow over here this season but overall it's the same picture everywhere. Spring is taking its time! :-)
Greetings from London.
Yes, an unusual long winter it seems - but spring has to make it´s way to us after all! :-)
