T STands For DesasTers

 With this "cool" drink I join Elizabeth´s T.

The journal:

 

Monday: My idea, K´s doing: Next week Banksy and Zoo it is!
By car. Aw, well. Her wish. Teamleader gave thumbs up, I feel like a 5-year old!
Yes, I am an introvert and yes, this is an "achievement"...

Great work with L!!! She´s just like me, let´s get it done! No fussing around, I love this!

4 sessions of training

Tuesday: Admin T, oh, we had a longer chat. Seems like we´re both a tad frustrated with some (same) colleagues!
It´s gotten cold. Thankfully Ingo needed to see the dentist and hence saw: Heating isn´t working.
I would´ve frozen my butt off thinking everything is OK, I just have a cold day!
4 sessions of training.
 

Wednesday: What did I do Wednesday (it´s Friday already!)??? This week flew by! I think I tore my left upper-arm-muscle again.
Tried/did 4 sessions of training anyways, burpees are OK! Just arm up hurts.


Thursday: Can´t sleep on either side, arm hurts. 
Work... love that L shortens content A LOT. But her idea of design is rather... special and she hasn´t shown it to anyone but me.
I see ourselves moving eventually backwards.
 
Ingo: "Give me your finger." He put it in his mouth... one of his teeth in the back to the left  - outch!!!! A HUGE hole. Drs app Friday. Next week.



Friday: Asked Admin T > do that Lenovo-update? Yupp.
Had but one instead of three monitors.
We tried till after 05:00 p.m. (I start 06:00 a.m.) - nada, nothing! > Monday.
Did, whilst Mrs. Holle shook out her bedsheet.
Thought, wearing headphones, I threw something off the table - was THUNDER.
Then T exclaimed: LOOK!!! OUTSIDE!!! ALL WHITE!!!

 
Doctor´s-visit (neurologist due to numb feet) - electro-shocks!!!! All normal, MRI etc will have to follow 😕


Weekend: Saturday: Lazy day, College-footy on TV

Sunday: -1C/30F and it was already 09:00 a.m.
Sadly we always read the weekend-paper on Sundays. Braunschweig failed again to advertise in time. On Saturday there were 113 pairs of shoes as reminder of violence against women (who speaks of men, happens to them, too).
I would´ve gone to take a pic. And bought a Pizza da Guido´s. Instead I made some Christmas-cards for the first time, was fun. More footy on TV.

Munch-wise:



Henry 🦁
 
 
Have a sweet week ahead. And maybe a pizza.

The Henry cake is far better than any microwave-in-a-cup cake, they never turn out nice.
It's true not many speak about the violence done to men, one of my sons had a partner who screamed and hit until they broke up.
I don't understand college football, to me it looks stupid and too rough. I don't like our football either or any other sport. I am not sporty.

Good luck with all the dentist issues! Tooth pain is terrible.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com

Bertiebo said...

Oh yes, the body's grow old. A lucky fact!

Iris Flavia said...

River, glad I usually don´t care about cake :-)
Reckon most men are too ashamed to ask for help. As many women also.
American Football is like chess, just in fast :-)

Mae, in Ingo´s name, thank you!

Bertiebo, well, yes. And no ;-)

Good morning, I love your Henry cake, sorry about your microwave cake-I have heard of those but never tried it.
Your journal pages are awesome-you find the neatest drinks in cans.
Have a good week ahead, hugs from the lake

Ooops I just enlarged the photos and I see your drink is a bottle not a can-smiles

My name is Erika. said...

Your drink looks good but what caught my eye in that photo was the cute owl. And sorry you had to deal with the dentist too. It's not fun. Here it is only partially covered by insurance (if you have special dental insurance) so it is always a bit of a cost. And sorry for numb feet too. If its not one thing it's another. I hope at some point though your journal has a smiling tooth as it will be all fixed. :) Have a super T day Iris. hugs-Erika

Tom said...

...the cake is a work of art!

Iris Flavia said...

Kathy, I didn´t expect someone would enlarge the pic of a drink, LOL
Yes, skip microwave-cakes!
To a good week! Hugs

____

Erika, the owwl holds my handcreme :-)
No, my teeth are fine - Ingo has the hole! He just let me feel it, brrr... supersharp, too.
Oh, yes, insurance only takes part at the dentist, here, too...
Anyways, to a great T-Day! Hugs

Tom, it´s but from the internet and I would likely never eat it!

RedPat said...

Hope the arm recovers quickly. It sounds like a frustrating week, Iris.

Iris Flavia said...

RedPat, last time that arm took forever, yes, that is frustrating...

Happy Tea Day,

CJ Kennedy said...

Ugh, the dentist. I hope Ingo's tooth is fixed and your arm is feeling better. We're in for a cold snap for a couple of days. I just bought a pair of flannel lined jeans for the occasion! I love mug cakes. Did you nuke yours too long? Henry as cake is magnificent. Happy T Day

DVArtist said...

I'm sorry for the arm and the teeth. What did you do to your arm? Yes, the healing candles reach out to you. I hope your are feeling better.

Kate, I´m definitively not ready for the cold! Or age for that matter.

CJ, yes, dentist is awful! Flannel sounds good!
I think the mug cake... hm, no idea. I two sorts microwaved as instructions says, both were no hit, aw, well, not into cakes much anyways ;-)

Empire of the Cat said...

PS love the Henry cake!

Granny Sue said...

Yes, Henry knows cake! Sounds like a rough week for poor Ingo.
I hope the heating got fixed?

Iris Flavia said...

Elle, the owl holds my handcreme :-)
Yes, the tooth doesn´t hurt I think, but my arm... longer story (again). -7, oh noooo....
-1 and we´re off by car :-(

____

Sue, yes, health-wise we were not so lucky...
The heating just needed water, all good :-)

____

Melody, thank you, was yummy. Do I really want to look at your temps? According to Elle it might be worse than here!

William Kendall said...

That lion cake is a show stopper!

Lisca said...

I'm sorry about Ingo's tooth problems and your sore arm. I hope both get sorted soon.
That Henry cake is a work of art!
Snow! Oh no! Frau Holle needs a talking to!
Happy T-Day,
Lisca

Iris Flavia said...

William, I would never eat it!

Lisca, thank you, Ingo is off to the dentist soon (again).
Yes, Frau Holle really needs to rethink! -2C right now...
