T Stands For A Good Week


 My drink for Elizabeth´s T (and work-brekkie).
 
And the journal... 


Monday: Nuggets. I started my day with Nuggets. Sadly not Chicken McNuggets but nuggets of Compliance. Every two years you get lectured on this. Like in kindy! They call each lesson a "nugget". Fancy.

 
Tuesday: ESE-Academy sent me 4 more yearly trainings, oh, gah!!! Admind mT said he´s 40 days behind already and does not care, LOL,
Teamlead said she´s afraid cause so many projects (mine also) are on hold. 
Ex-teamleader T said not to worry, as did mT. Hm.
 

Wednesday: Yearly "trainings", ohhhh, soooo boring.
ESE is certified so we have to repeat some yearly, some every 2 years.
I am with them two years!!!! Time runs.
Wish me LUCK projects keep coming - they carry me along since September!
 
Bro WhatsApp´d pics, they wandered to the Brocken - ack! Twice! Double-ack!
I went there once with my former company cgs.
I hate mountains, but they had fun 😀
Other I hear nothing.


Thursday: Ingo was so kind to drive me to Hanover for a minor operation (nothing serious).
I hate hospitals, but we must be thankful we have them.... right. This one was good you can read more here, if you like.
Luck hit me big with my heart (failure?)!

 
Friday: I was home by 10:00 a.m. as my doc lives in Braunschweig also and simply drove me home. Like in front of my door! Quiet day.

 
Weekend: Saturday:  Ingo... well, it´s Ingo, right? 
He brought love & Spring and gave me the BIGGEST SMILE all day (weekend, week, another bouquet of flowers that has to travel from private to workplace and back every working day!):
 

With Gerbera, one of my very fav flowers!

06:40 p.m. - a bird is chirping!!! Spring is REALLY here (despite the cold weather).
Other I´m into carpet waving. Got it in Madeley/Perth, cool 70´s style!



Sunday: The carpet is finished!
This is for kids ages 6+.
Ingo said, after 10 minutes max a six-y-o would throw it in the corner - I made it!


So COOL, huh, peace, peeps!
 
Food-wise:
 
 
Three-minute noodles, cooked, drained. Cut green olives in slices, mozzarella, small quarters, mix the latter with dried  basil and oregano.
Throw the noodles in a pan with a bit of oil add pepper, also basil, oregano, add the olives, fry till a bit brown, add mozzarella till it´s gooey and enjoy.

 Have a good T-Day and get pampered a bit, how about with a yummy tea?

I love your 'it's a good day' sign. And I'm not six!!!!

Iris Flavia said...

:-) No, Ingo meant six year olds don´t have the patience to finish this...

Tom said...

...a doctor brought you home, that's amazing!

Iris Flavia said...

Well, he´s really nice and lives around the corner :-)

Empire of the Cat said...

oh you're home again? I think I missed some posts... didn't realise you had left Perth :( I love your 70s carpet weaving though, it's awesome! Bet you're missing the heat already! Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx

RedPat said...

Sounds like work is in a holding pattern. Hope that your project comes through soon, Iris.

Glad you had your operation -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com

Iris Flavia said...

Elle, yes, I miss it terribly! We came back March 8th...
The carpet makes it all better :-)

RedPat, atm I´m helping in other projects - at least that way I see what else "we" do...

Christine, yes, now we must find out about the heart racing...

Mae Travels said...

Good luck recovering — I’m glad your medical procedure went well. You’ve been working there for 2 years! Yes, time flies.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you. Yes, crazy how fast time speeds by!!!
Feels like I just left Siemens!

DVArtist said...

Sorry you had a small surgery, however, I have never heard of the doctor bringing the patien home. Now that is service. I hope you are feeling well. Beautiful flowers. Ingo is so thoughtful. Nice looking food and I do like your, "Today is a good day" wall hanging. Have A great day today.

Fruchtbuttermilch klinkt echt gut. Habe ich hier leider noch nicht gesehen. Ich erinnere mich an diese alljährlichen Trainings, die ich auch machen musste, als ich noch an der High School arbeitete. Einige habe ich ja eingesehen (z.B. wie man Missbrauch bei Kindern erkennt und was dann zu tun ist), aber andere waren in meinen Augen kompletter Humbug. Aber - wie kann man Berge hassen? Im Flachland zu leben wäre der reine Horror für mich. Ich schaffe es zwar auch nicht mehr, so ohne weiteres auf jeden Berg zu kraxeln, aber ich liebe sie dennoch und bin hier, mit Meer und Hügeln/Bergen, genau am richtigen Ort. Happy T day - und pass auf dein Herz auf!

Iris Flavia said...

Nicole, this doc is really nice, he is Greek and always helpful and in a good mood :-)
Glad I had the surgery, too, actually.
Yes to Ingo and travel-flowers and that wall hanging makes me smile every time I walk by - hope you had a great day!

Iris Flavia said...

Carola, ja, ist echt lecker, die "Milch".
Die Notausgänge aller Gebäude (schön, dass man skippen kann) und anderer Blödsinn wie die Struktur des Intranets... tolle "Nuggets".
Ich sehe gern wer zu Besuch kommt, ich liebe das flache Land ;-) Gut, dass nicht alle Menschen gleich sind, wäre eng sonst!
Ja, das Herz. Regulär Termin im Dezember aber ich kann mich als "Notfall" verkaufen. War echt ... beängstigend!

I'm trying to figure out how buttermilk with lemon tastes. We have buttermilk, but I've never seen it with lemon. Interesting. And your racing heart drawing is just how it feels. And you deserve those flowers after that health issue, but you deserve them anyhow. They are beautiful. I hope you had a super T day since I am late stopping by. hugs-Erika

Iris Flavia said...

The milk is... refreshing :-)
Yes, my heart... regularly I´d have to wait till December (!) but once my family doc is home I can file myself as emergency and be in much sooner.
Ingo with age pops in with flowers more often :-) Hugs to that

River said...

I hate buttermilk. I have one recipe that uses it, (chicken burgers) and there is always so much left over. Now If I make the chicken burgers I buy extra chicken mince and use the whole carton of nuttermilk and store all the extra burgers in the freezer. I haven't made any for several years now.
I really like the "Today is a Good Day" hanging.
I hope your company finds work for you soon.
Beautiful flowers from Ingo.

CJ Kennedy said...

Training sessions called brain nuggets. I love it. I've had to do some of those at work too. Like learning how to clock in and out of the new payroll system. We never had to punch a clock before. So much fun. Not. I feel for you. Your flowers are so pretty. Happy T Day

Lisca said...

I'm glad you had a good week. And super kind of your doc to drive you home!
I have never heard lemon buttermilk. I grew up with buttermilk, but I have never seen this. It sounds really nice.
Oh dear, the nuggets don't sound like much fun!
Your hanging is brilliant! Well done. It looks very good there. I like the colours.
Happy T-Day,
Lisca

Iris Flavia said...

River, I was just feeling like trying in with lemon and it was quite yummy - the plain one I don´t like, either, brrr....
But for marinating meat it sounds good! And you found a clever way, too :-)
A bit silly, but I smile every time I go by this wall carpet...
I help in other projects and a project for real is hopefully waiting!

ATM I help in a supercool project - a train-line from the mines in the Pilbara to Port Augusta!!!
Yes, the flowers travel back and forth :-)

CJ, but.... every year the same nuggest is really boring!!
Boy, pinch a clockk like in the 1900s?! Is there no trust?!
Yes, the flowers make me smile big :-)

____

Lisca, the milk is refreshing with the lemon. Don´t you have Müller in Spain, too?
Yes, the doc is supernice!
I smile seeing that hanging every time (hope it does not wear off!).

Sharon Madson said...

I probably couldn't do the carpet. You did good and it is pretty. Happy T Day.-Sharon -Foxy Stamping.

pearshapedcrafting said...

Well done for completing the carpet - great message! How lovely to receive that beautiful bouquet of flowers from hubby! Happy T Day, Chrisx

Iris Flavia said...

Sharon, I wasn´t allowed to do sport, so...... ;-)

Chris, yes to both! It´s Saturday now and the flowers still look wonderful! x
