Easter decoration

Rain - the whole morning!!

While my elder son and I went to the bakery for fresh baked rolls my other son made this Easter decoration for our breakfast table.

Later I played different games with my younger son.

After lunch we took a walk through the town, the children with bmx-bike and scooter. Both enjoyed their first ice cream and the movement in the vernal afternoon sun - after the long snow time.

We had a wonderful mild spring day to the afternoon - and then a heavy storm began.

Another snuggling time for me with my son and now my husband is on the way to bring him back to the hospital.

Trip to a deer-park

In the early morning my husband hit the road for collecting our son at the hospital. Then he had a appointment at the hairdresser and afterwards we made breakfast together in a café.

Later we looked at another new car - a much smaller one as the car we got in January.

Owing to the fine weather we made a trip to a deer-park in the afternoon.

In the evening we had late lunch in a country inn.

Then it was high time to go to bed for the children and snuggling time for my elder son (and me), after another week without us. He was so tired, that he fell asleep in my arms, what a beautiful feeling - he was so close to me - like the time he was a baby.

Spring ist just around the corner

Another weather report. After two days of raining we had wonderful spring weather today. Mild with about 11,5°C degrees and sunny until the early afternoon. Then the grey came back. Nevertheless it was a wonderful day for the mood.

My younger son and I made the grocery shopping by bike - our first bike ride for this year.

If everything goes well my son will be release from hospital next week. But for a limited period only. We´ll see.

I wasn´t at the doctor yet... but the pain in neck and shoulder is still here ... no time for my own health and I´m a little bit anxious about the results.

In the evening I´ll go "aqua jogging" for the first time. Two mums of our swimming club invited me. So I didn´t want to say "NO" (this would been my nature) and I´ll give it a chance.

Our weather today

AGH!! More snow! Totally different weather to yesterday... it has been snowing almost the whole day and I am so ready for spring.

How Kayjay said "I have just had enough snow for this winter, but no one is listening to me!" I need more sun for my mood.

In fact of having a stiff neck and pain in my shoulder I slept baddish the last nights. And I´m so tired. Todays night was horrific. The pain spread as far as the arm... I think I´ll have to go to the doctor tomorrow. Hoping it will be only a tension and not a disc prolaps in the cervical spine. Or maybe something happend during my fall in january

ZWÖLF 2010

Finally I managed it to take my shot for the project Zwölf 2010 from Jana. In fact of the hospital stay of my son - I wasn´t able to take my first shot earlier. Sorry Jana.

Here is my picture for February.



For all who were interested... on the left you can see our new car ;-))

The idea of the project is, to photograph the very same object from always the same place once in a month.

Saturday 20.02.2010 Day 51




Our day was really in chime today and the weather was beautiful as you can see.

We had pizza for lunch at J*oeys and afterwards our son skied an hour on a small ski slope in our neighbourhood.

My picture of the day shows you my son making dips . His swimming trainer made him a training plan for the time he couldn´t swim.

Pizza selfmade by my younger son

My younger son was baking pizza with the local vacation programm today. He had so much fun.

After work I picked him up and we went to my BFF for a cup of café latte and a good talk. She is a supportive of me, during my son is in hospital. She also visited him three times.

I´m so blessed with her.

Whatever for? I have no more energy

Blue sky and sun

The first day with sun and blue sky - since so many weeks (or month). I enjoyed this to the fullest. It´s so good for the mood

My younger son on the slide

Today was a swimming competition for my elder son. The whole family spent the time together there. My son reached the third place in each stroke and the third place in the competition....and that without training since four weeks. But he was totally dissatisfied with his showings.

The first minutes of sun since many weeks

Overnight it has snowed again - and now we have so many snow that I can say we are having a winter wonderland.

In the morning my husband picked up our son at the hospital. It was not easy driving over the snow-covered streets. Glad nothing happened and both came home save.

My boys had a funny trip to an indoor swimming pool as a reward of the congregation for being a carol singer. This was soooo good for the mood of my elder son. But he was extremely pale when he came back in the late afternoon.

While I picked them up, my husband was snow shoveling.

After dinner my elder son and I enjoyed a long snuggling time together.






Friday 29.01.2010 Day 29

Mail from Normi


Today I got lovely mail.

"A life without love is lonely
a life without hope is horrible
a life without faith is blank
But a live without good friends
would be no life anymore"

Thank you so much Normi. Your words do me so good. Many hugs for you!

My younger son got an "A" in a test of his religion class.

In the afternoon he had his guitar lesson and soccer training. Preparation of children´s church in the evening for me.
