With this Mango-drink I join Elizabeth´s T.
In the background you see the teacher´s chair!
My job: Explain how to check, to exchange it, if necessary. You usually have it at the wall.
LOL, I sit in Braunschweig, Germany - "she" is in Vienna, Austria!
So.. my customer runs "downstairs" to take pics for me!
I am the luckiest person in the world - I want to keep this job!!!!
(I am "sold" to Brussels already and will lose my mSA, buhuu... - bet nice colleagues there as well)
The journal:
Later we moved. We had a cat and a dog and the dog waited for the cat to get out first.
The new place was a classroom with wonderful murals I saw all in detail.
Why such dreams?!
2 meetings - I was mentioned as first person... oh, yuck! And this was real...
Tuesday: I´m officially in the list, I have the tram´s windows - in red! Me, not mSA! In red: "Can you deliver earlier?" - fK says it´s good I´m on red.
Help me Rhonda. When even mSA doesn´t know how it works - how am I supposed to?!
Next time he goes down to the tram he will check if the lock has to get out before the window can or if there is a simpler way. "Beschissen!" I need to keep my humor, right...
So I said, OK, I take the reed relay then - whatever that is.
And LOL, he didn´t know, either, but said yes to my suggestion after I found hopefully correct out via AI and YouTube. The thing has a Füßchen, a "tittle foot".. 🦶
And - good thing - I have an addition to my presentation that shows what REALLY is needed, and I can buy time.
Me to mSA: "think it´s unfair only my name is mentioned in the document." - "I change the date instead, Helau!" On 11th11 11:11 carnival starts. Is he my secret twin???
Wednesday: Wondered why I got hungry at 07:00 a.m. - yupp, ate 5 spider legs yesterday and was too full for Ingo´s soup.... 🕷Sorry, Charlotte... and Ingo, don´t buy this stuff!
(OK, was actually for his colleagues)
Evening.... yummmm soup!
Started with "Against the Wind" - thank you, River. It is quite a series! VERY interesting!
Boy - boring, then very cruel at first! And now I run from Austrian to Australian accent! And all the magpies, ravens and kookaburras you hear, awwww, lovely!!!
Based on fact, which I like. All convicts, 1796, I knew. And I know some places :-) Wonderful. "The stars are clear like crystal"... YES.
Thursday: Thank you, Facebook! 12:42 sirens went off. If FB hadn´t warned they have emergency tests in Braunschweig I might´ve flipped!!
But, honestly... if I wasn´t sitting in silence with only the clocks ticking, working.... I´d overheard that! Too silent.
Picture this: Two Engineers, one Austrian (mSA), one German (me) over a Czech document that was badly translated from them to English and .. we.don´t.get.it! Plan: ask a Czech colleague tomorrow.
"The customer-meeting is on...." - me, "Wait, let me look up when I have my presentation .. 26th" - "Oh, on my Birthday!" - "Bring me luck!" Please, this MUST work!
Friday: mSA´s daughter got sick so he had to cancel the Czech help. And... I found out myself!!! Yipeee! We will laugh so hard on Monday! The window´s motor didn´t work, hence...
Went to Jürgens Brewery for beer and bratwurst, I got 1/3 > Ingo is eating better!
Weekend: Saturday: Braunschweig: Ingo: Weather is icky!!!! Cold, rainy!
fK sends me a pic in a t-shirt in the sun!
She´s in Munich for a seminar. Her wife has Usher and she learns to guide blind, deaf people for when the inevitable arrives. Both are strong, they have teenage-twins and my biggest respect.
Ingo cooks big today! Yummy times ahead!
Sunday: Die Maus: An Edeka (grocery) made from wood - the first worldwide in... Braunschweig!!! Henry is mightily proud! Sadly they didn´t give away where exactly and Braunschweig is quite big... I had this with munchy...
Usually we had warm food for dinner, not lunch. My stomach has to get used to this and weee. It was too much. But I will find a way for the yummy potatoes.
So, here is munchy:
Spinach, egg, potatoes!!!! YUM!!!
"Our everyday objects and their unusual origin stories
Shoes from Nike
In the 1970s, Bill Bowerman was coaching runners on a slippery but hard track. One morning, while watching his wife's waffle iron, he had an epiphany: he created a new kind of running shoe with a waffle-pattern sole to help runners improve their speed. This waffle-pattern-inspired design was the starting point for the global athletic shoe company."

Dear friend Iris, I love ❤️ your sketches. I don't drink soft drinks since about 4 years now, as I am pre diabetic. The kitten 😸 on the Nike shoe is adorable. Chatty Henry made me laugh. 😁 😂
Sending you warm hugs 🫂 🤗 and much love.
Dear friend Linda, thank you and I am so glad I still can eat/drink what I want, if it´s not much. Well, Henry really was chatty! Warm hugs and much love on the way 🥰
...Iris, I hope that yoou continue to be the luckiest person in the world!!!
Oh, Tom, we´ll sadly see soon...
That drink looks interesting -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
Mango pepsi, now that's interesting. I once visited World of Coke in Atlanta and they had so many flavors of coke that I never see anywhere. It was fun to taste them. I hope you don't have any more bad dreams. It can throw off your whole day when you get them sometimes. And glad work is going well for you. I hope the Brussells folks are nice. Have a super T day. hugs-Erika
Hello Iris! Your drink sounds interesting. Your drawings are so wonderful. I love how expressive they are. I wish you all the best and have a wonderful rest of the week my friend. hugs! :)
Was yummy.
There is a World of Coke? Interesting! Yes, I think when the presentation is done the dreams hopefully stop, either way it works or not... Well, I´ll miss mSA soon (a bit is still to do in Austria). Hugs and have a great day.
Thank you very much, Maria and I wish you the same, hugs
It sounds like such a busy week, Iris. I hope the next project is a good one too.
Thank you, RedPat, I hope so, too!
Here in Poland, on November 11th at 11:11 AM, we sing the national anthem. It's Polish Independence Day.
Best regards, and I invite you to view my new painting :)
Hi Iris, ooh I love all sour things so I would probably like those legs, poor Charlotte (good book though) hope you are well xx
Maybe weird dreams due to Mango Pepsi? 😉 I like lime, cherry, or vanilla as Coke/Pepsi flavors. Your Füßchen drawing is adorable. Then got me thinking about Füßchen in Füßen. 🤣Spider legs had me in a panic at first. Whew! Candy. Happy T Day
Much better than carnival! Which in my city is in February and I don´t go...
Hopping over.
Well, the first bite always makes me drool.... Yips one of my fav stories!
I think it´s the fear to lose the job/not pass the test why I have such dreams... Füßchen make electrical engineering at least a bit fun... Yupp, buy spider legs and I fall for it...
Als wir letztes Jahr in Belgien waren, war ich sehr angetan davon, wie nett und freundlich alle waren. Also glaube ich, dass du auch "in" Brüssel gute Kollegen finden wirst. Und sprachlich sind sie etwas näher als Tschechisch.
Glücklicher Weise ist Alstom´s Sprache Englisch, falls da also niemand Deutsch spricht, ist alles gut - Hauptsache nett!
Ganz ehrlich... vermutlich werde ich die Flucherei vermissen!
It sounds like things with Ingo are going better. I'm happy for you. May your wonderful luck continue! And the dreams stop!
11th of 11 at 11! Alaaf!
Oh that kitten in the shoe is so adorable!
Strange dreams are horrible, even though they are not nightmares strictly speaking. They live with you the rest of the days.
I woud probably like those spider's legs, but it's better I don't buy that stuff or I'd eat until I felt sick...
Glad Ingo is feeling a bit better.
Happy T-Day
Lisca
Thank you, I hope for all that!
Oh, yes, post to come on that on Sunday - you are right, some dreams stay forever!
Yes, I hope Ingo stops showing me such things - I always am open for new stuff!
Good to hear Ingo is eating better and I hope he stays good for longer now. I can "feel" oyur happiness with your job 😃
I love Against The Wind, the main character, Jonathon Garret is played by Jon English who is a singer as well as an actor and I have been a fan for many years. Sadly he died in 2016 from complications after surgery. I'm happy you are enjoying the series.
Yes, hope Ingo stays better and I hope to keep the job! Buhuuuu... I ended the series yesterday! Too short!!! Yes, Jonathon I liked best, too - sad he passed away!
I saw comments about World of Coke. Yes, there is a World of Coke in Atlanta and they keep the secret Coke formula in a vault! LOL. Great sketches this week. I hope you had a great t day!
I´d like to visit - oh, if someone invented beaming!
