spring is here, finally!

This is the tree in front of my living-room-window, everything is so green!

Your happy Sam

humans are funny - our jobs

Birgit keeps grinning and she couldn´t sleep right now. But looking at her right now I guess it´s getting harder and harder to keep her eyes open.

She says something like: Fake it ´til you make it if you are not sure about something. I think she is referring to the place I have not seen yet: where I think she pushes a mouse around, where Schnuckies run free (and apparently she ignores the living hell out of them), coffee is served in overdoses.

I have just asked her about the difference between cuddly toy work and hers: She is concentrated there for quite some time on figures (shapes?), data extractions and concepts until she really knows what she has to know, until working makes sense again in order to have results instead of more questions than the hour before. Some routine and repeated work will be nice. Sometimes she is worried if what she does is ok though her colleagues and boss already said everything is fine, and I think she is on her way. Being a perfectionist might not really make the world easier, but more interesting. And she sleeps better. Hippo,  the house inventary and me are keeping fingers crossed. My work rather consists of discussing with Olivia and Emilia and the other folks here at home, making people happy, after-work-parties with Greta, demanding a good foam bath from time to time, posing for fotos in any place with the greatest of ease and shiny fur. And meeting my furry friends. And hugging Birgit of course if no one human is around.

Hugs to all of you and I hope you liked the Olivia foto. I guess it´s time to send you fotos from the apartment, I will trigger a session!

Olivia and Sam in action


... the three of us couldn´t hold still but we tried :)

ehem, I meant: one Olivia, one Monkey and our fotographer, can you spot the blooming thingies? (what is it called, by the way?)

Olivia

and since last week, Olivia the flower is blooming for the very first time since 2001! Three times at once :)
happy blooming-day, Olivia!

`Allo `Allo

I haven´t laughed this hard in a long time about something on television.

There is a tv show called`Allo `Allo created in the 80s und probably still prohibited in Germany. I found it in the internet and the story is the following: occupied France village in the 40s, a hilarious French coffee shop owner Renee, the french resistance, crazy Germans and British people and really funny stories about Renée and his three ladies, a fictitious stolen painting of the Falling Madonna with the big boobies by van Klomp (ending up in giant sausage), two British Airmen trying to escape with the help of Renée anding up in lakes, self-manufactured planes, Helga who is shouting all the time, an womanizing italian officer, the French Granny picturing the eccentricities of those cultures with a breeze of British humour.

after a few turmoils finally weekend has arrived.

I have so much to tell and at the same time, so many impressions need some time to define themselves bundled.

A big hug to everyone, I am off for the weekend
Yours,

we love Emilia!

after a break, I started playing the piano again yesterday and it filled me with peace. touching the keys releases stress and everything else kept in my mind and the world is easy for a second.

I don`t even care being a bloody amateur :)

Sam and me are so happy Emilia is here!
