If you look close.. my keyboard says "QWERTZ" not "QWERTY" - which my Aussie cellphone does... I always have to re-think - keeps my brain young(er) ;-)
If Freddie only would live to see this! At the end people clap to the song!
I bet the horse enjoyed it all!
Chapeau to the lady, too. I mostly got ponies but once.... his name was Alexander for a reason. I fell into his back all the time and yet he snuggled up afterwards anyways. Also a black one, so beautiful.
The Elefant, the one who is as old as Die Maus, he celebrates.
And there is a reason to celebrate, well, if not here, but...
2019 we celebrated Chinese New Year, see here (I nearly dropped my cam!).
Twice actually, with Sami and Grace, too, in Northbridge, it was fun, see here, if you like.
One day... we will travel and meet again.
We have soooo many Chinese students, I wonder why we don´t have a parade here... oh. Corinna... but sadly we never celebrate it, despite you find Chinese food everywhere here.
The journal...
Monday: our W knocked to check on me.
He was so sad, cannot get over having lost his wife.
Asked him if his kids care.
No.
How sad is this, they live around the corner.
So I showed him my new work-place and he smiled, told him how people call me these days, oh, boy. Another grin.
If little, it is good, huh.
At the grocery I waited in line like FOR-EVER after I waited at the bakery the same as the woman could not decide.
I order the bread at 06:38 a.m. and have the correct money at hand, arrrrgh...
Tuesday: Work, oh. Hell. I´m a newbie and have to correct documents that are so..."arrrrgh"!
BUT!!! I found my second camera!!!
Had put it in front of the microwave, luckily the drawer underneath was open.
Walking by I opened the door for my microwave-tiger and the cam must´ve fallen in there!!!
D'ooooooh. Was I happy when I - after searching everywhere - found it in there!
The whole main Braunschweig Fire Brigade, which is just around the corner, was out and about when I wanted to get tomatoes for Ingo, it was scary. No idea what was up, they let us pass. Scary.
Training, two sessions.
Wednesday: Late Birthday mail!
And a very fast talking - and working - customer from South Africa. We were very (!) productive AND had fun! Nice guy.
And then from another a document from hell again.
Well. I do understand those people have other things on their minds and can do stuff I can not, so I take it as it comes.
Two training sessions, I´m getting back to my old life!!!
I really enjoy cooking, even if I work and have to prepare before.
I know what´s in there and some products really are local.
As Dr. Vitali Klitschko just said: "If you wanna make it good, do it yourself!".
Weee. He was here in Germany to ask for help. I hope Putin just threatens and we don´t have another war.
Seeing all the tanks and war ships threating the Ukraine sure was a scary sight.
And local?
I just hear of the drama from Bro.
People go to him cause they know he does an excellent job in refracturing, then buy their glasses online, aka somewhere else.
Thursday: I spent a whole day with another document from hell, had meetings, to-do-lists, people asking, telling me, oh, can you "quickly" do this, saying, oh, why did you not... we need this... Admin and Manager?! I am the lille girl for plain everything.
P helped again BIG and I had no idea how. I checked the hell-document out, which actually means others have but reading-options, yet, suddenly problems were solved! I thought I´m going slightly mad!
A master magician she is.
We talked, too, and she told me to not take it all too close, no one will be happy then.
It´s such a different world to my old working world where I was more or less my own tiny boss...
After I did two more training-sessions. Sport really does one good.
Friday: We´re all stressed by now.
Certainly, how else could it be, I ended up in the biggest project they have - Emmi, P´s sweet, black cat, always wants to join us and when P said, "Emmi, give love" she purred so loud, I could hear it. So sweet.
And Ingo´s flowers I always take from my home- to my work PC, they make me happy, too. Plus sport.
Ingo got a "Schnitzel-Street" and made some yummy Cordon-Bleu:
Can you guess for what Freddie´s letter "X" stands?
In pic above are two hints.
(The sign actually says "Tauben füttern verboten" - "feeding pigeons forbitten", but someone put dots over the "ü", hence it´s an "u" that makes it "futtern", another word for "eating", or "snacking".)
