FFO - Moooooo And Smile

 
As last Friday I joined Nicole´s  FFO not only with a carousel, but with a cow looking on I thought I continue with cow-faces - such pretty animals.
 
I sadly haven´t seen a real one in ages.
 
This one lives with us since at least 2008 - back then it hung on the kitchen wall:
 
 
On a CD-holder-piece... Ingo, huh. A lille MacGyver.
Sadly I have no crayon with the right red, can you believe that?!
Three brands and ... nada! 
 
Not Mooo but booo on that!
 
And yes, our new kitchen wall is also red, but the cow now works as a book-holder (still with red):
 

Two things to smile about and joining
Friday Smiles:
 

The second sunflower is in full bloom!
If just a thought or wish - to end of war for Ukraine! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›๐ŸŒป

More to smile, not only is the driver a woman, but:


"First hydrogen train fleet in passenger service in summer"  - you can read more here.
It´s German but AI helps you, if you are interested.

I´m but an external, but it makes me kinda a wee bit proud to be part of the (whole) team.
My Alstom-teamleaders always say they make no difference between in- or external.

Oh, I SO hope the project lives on and they keep me!
As the Barcelona-team is on holiday there are near to no meetings and I got so much done yesterday, SMILE!
It´s tough work.
I´m called a Documentation-/ Translation Manager (aka girl for everything) and have 6 documents/programs (partially real huge ones) at once to update two of them - do not interrupt me, I need to really concentrate!
(See why I have three monitors? Not for bragging, I really need them...)
Yeah, and people e-mail and call me whenever they want. "Bravo" ๐Ÿ˜‰

But all in all... I love this job and team.

I had more balcony-time yesterday and let´s see - rain is predicted, which I also love!!
 
I also joined River with Wednesday´s Words on a Friday, see here, if you like, two great pics involved (or just scroll down).

Ha-ha, how nice post! II like your happy cows, and I agree cows are kind looking animals. Wow, You have a wonderful work with many knobs and monitors!
I wish you a lovely weekend xx

Gene Black said...

What an interesting job. At first I thought that you are the driver, but I needed to read it again. I have never heard of hydrogen trains.

Annie said...

Cows have such gorgeous eyes...I’ve always been a lover of cows and being a country girl I see them often.
Hugs,
Annie x

Christine said...

Nice moo

Iris Flavia said...

sirkkis, no I´m just one of the documentation/translation managers.
Butt for that I have three monitors indeed :-)
Yes, cows are cute!
To a lovely weekend! xx

Gene, no I´m behind the scenes - thankfully! That is a lot of responsibility!

____

Annie, yes, when Ingo still lived in the village I got to look into their beautiful eyes, and ohhh, those long eyelashes!
Hugs x

Christine, nice moo back :-)

I am loving your cow theme. I have always been attached to the cow since I was a child. I am lucky to see cows every time I leave for town. You should be very proud of the work you do. Even when I was young I couldn't do what you do. Thank you, Iris for joining FFO.

Hi Iris, I am worried about your lack of cow viewing opportunities lol. I am surrounded by cows, we are in the middle of dairy country, plus we have those hairy highland cows nearby too. I will take some photos next time I pass some and post them on the blog for you :) Happy Friday Face-off Elle/EOTC xx

CJ Kennedy said...

Hmm, brown cows give chocolate milk so red cows must give strawberry milk. ๐Ÿ˜‰Your sunflower is so pretty. I'm so glad Summer is still here. Hooray for balcony time or in my case, sunroom time. Enjoy your day!

LA Paylor said...

love cows and cow things! LeeAnna

gigi-hawaii said...

Sounds like you are doing well, hope it continues. Cheers and aloha from Hawaii.

Iris Flavia said...

Nicole, I´m not working that train - I just sit behind my PC.
Oh, butt I sure miss cows!

____

Elle, LOL, very well written!
Oh, I´ve never seen a hairy highland cow! Yes, please pics!!! :-) xx

_____

CJ, I will give it a go, LOL ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“!

____

LeeAnna, yes, I love them also!

RedPat said...

That is a cute cow for sure.

Iris Flavia said...

It even could give milk ;-)
Maybe I should give her a go after all those years!

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

LOVE your drawing of the milk cow and I also love the sunflower that honors Ukraine. If only that war would end. Nice smiles indeed.

Amypie71 said...

So many cows here, it's like cow country and they are so curious and friendly

Felix the Crafty Cat said...

I have seen the cow before but not in ceramics, she's lovely. Living in the country we see lots of cows but my hubby wasn't impressed when we met a lot of them on the road going to the barn to be milked as their fat bellies swishing from side to side broke the wing mirror as they passed the car. I thought it was quite funny but I could tell he didn't Lol! Have a lovely weekend, Angela xxx

My name is Erika. said...

Your cow is adorable Iris. Pink was a good choice. Cows are so sweet aren't they? And it sounds like getting this new job has lead you to have lots of fun experiences. Have a great start to your weekend. Hugs-Erika

Carola Bartz said...

Der Schriftzug erinnert mich stark an die Milka-Kuh, aber die ist doch lila!
Ich habe von den Wasserstoffzรผgen gehรถrt, gute Idee, die alten Dieselzรผge aus dem Verkehr zu ziehen. Ich hoffe sehr, dass das Projekt bestehen bleibt und du diesen Job behalten kannst.

William Kendall said...

The last cows I've seen? Out in the country here.

River said...

Of course you are proud to be part of the team, your work is valuable and you do it well. I love your cow and she is doing a fine job as a book holder.
No bright red crayon? That's not good. I will be planting my sunflower seeds in a couple of weeks.

Iris Flavia said...

Elizabeth, thank you, yes, if only that war would end and Ukraine be free.
And then there is soooo much to do.

____

Amy, lucky you! Pay them visits, I bet they love that - in Ingo´s old village they were always interesd and friendly, too.

____

Angela, LOL, really, they bumped into the car with swinging bellies? Too funny! And to a great weekend xxxx

____

Erika, oh! It was some red. But the wrong one. How can it be I have three brands and none has a proper red?!
I do love cows, sometimes I miss the country.
The job sure is an adventure! Somehow- for now, everything is just right! Hugs and to a great weekend!

Carola, die Milka-Kuh... warte, achnee, Ingo hat von "JA" gekauft, er braucht die Schokolade nur zum experementieren (sagt er, eine Tafel hat er schon verputzt).
Ich arbeite for eine Tram in Frankfurt, ein ziemliches Chaoten-Projekt.
Daher "Alstom-family" - Ingo hat wieder Recht, ich beschreibe nicht prรคzise genug, argh! Aber auch den Job mรถchte ich behalten!

____

William, lucky you! I only saw police-horses in the city.

____

River, thank you. The cow and I do our best ;-)
Yes, crazy with the red, isn´t it?!!! To your sunflowers then, my last should be on the way!

It's sounds like you're doing well and not getting negative feedback. I'd say "relax!"
