A Wish, One Wish - What Is Yours?

I know... you are tired of this but it has to get out.

To the art not only of nature but also of engineering.

My teamleader mK wants me back. I worked for him for Deutsche Bahn and we did very well together as in I didn´t go on his nerves and the customer was content - despite it was not easy. 

See.. after I lost my job at Brunel and got the hint to try at ESE I picked one of these, took a deeeeep breath and wished they take me. 
And they did. 
 
Three.Days.Later!!!  
 
I got hence this, with three:
 

For in case you are new here: I never had interest in tattoos.
Then my Brother one Sunday afternoon was there, August 2002, asking me to help our Dad on his last journey. I got a tattoo and years later learned that in extreme situations people do this to lead the pain - or, in this case joy, away or to the heart. 
 
So  I picked, took, wished.
 
I also assembled:
 

 

 Three is a lucky number, right? Three extra-pieces were in there!
 
 
 
I arranged mine different  to the package due to static. 
This is a very small "wedding glass" Ingo got from his colleagues 2013... I don´t want it to drop over, right?
OK, our wedding rings are made of titanium, what can go wrong? 
I have a man´s ring and my Brother sure had trouble to make it smaller ;-)
 
For in case you want to marry in Australia: Men and women do NOT share the "same" ring!!!!
How´s it like in your place?
In Germany they are the "same", how else will you see who is with whom?
 
Well ...just wish me luck ESE takes me back again.
 

 

They want, two projects in the pipe FOR ME but times are hard...
Waiting hurts... 
 

 Ingo believes in me... I´ll unpack when... not IF... WHEN...

 What do YOU wish for? Let me know, if you like.

The dandelion seed heads are so beautiful, Iris.

I suspect your wish WILL come true but I hope you don't have to wait much longer for it to happen!

I do believe that wishes come true.

Bill said...

Wishes do come true, all you have to do is believe.

I wish for your wishes to come true (blowing my dandelion seeds to the winds).

River said...

There are no dandelions here to wish on so I will wish without them and by the time we have them blooming perhaps you will already be working again with ESE.

Bertiebo said...

I will blow a dandelion for you later this morning.
I haven't seen those Lego fieldflowers before. Super fun

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, RedPat - I hope they do their job soon...

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you, Jeanie, June 1st would be great!

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you, all ours!

Iris Flavia said...

Then.... wish... And let´s hope!

Iris Flavia said...

... 🎶 and I´m a believer!

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you so much!!! Hope you made a wish for yourself, too!

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you, River, I so hope you are right! And then make a wish for yourself (a certain train ride?).

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you - now it MUST come true, right? I really got the last Lego-set! They don´t have them anymore...

Tom said...

...Mother Nature has created so much for us to enjoy!

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, and I hope she helps!

Congrats on your Lego construction. I like this dandelion one. I've got a couple of flower ones to build, and I really enjoy them. I hope you had fun too. And here, men and women can get whatever ring they want- of not. My husband never wears his, nor any ring. My wedding ring needs a repair. A small stone popped out of it and it has a sharp edge. So I bought a silver ring I really like instead. I only wear it when I go out though. Hope all is well and you have a super weekend. I don't know what happened but I seem to have gotten behind. :) hugs-Erika

Dandelions here are in the yellow stage.
