Big day is today - dad's presenting his book. It's been taking over most activity in the house.

Excellent! an author in the family.....

I recently discovered that a couple of kids books from my childhood
had been written and illustrated by my mother's older sister in the mid 1940's.....

I can't remember anyone ever mentioning aunty Margaret had been
an author and artist, apparently once married, her career was shelved
and never spoken of.....

Mood: in between :-) and :-(

[*] posted on 12-10-2022 at 19:49


Deactivation of a bomb near my place. Two days ago they found it on a construction ground (remnant of ww2, not uncommon in bigger german towns). I saw it in the news yesterday but didn't care very much till i took a closer look onto the map that defined the evacuation zone. My place was inside the red zone (though quite close to the border). All inhabitants were ordered to clear the zone till 9 o'clock this morning. No problem cause i am already at work at that time. At about high noon i took a look into the internet and had to learn that they were still busy clearing the zone (including few idiots who refused to leave). That delay made me a little bit concerned about my return back home in the evening but luckily they succeeded fast enough. So this finally turned out to be a lousy wednesday as usual, absolute not noteworthy.
;-)
Btw no writers in my family but one of my two sisters worked long years as teacher until she suffered a nervous breakdown. A while ago now she started to work as lector, correcting manuscripts of new books, which seems to work pretty good.

Lived through another week after wading through a cesspool of poor service for a court case file.

Heyhey!

Originally the plan was for me to come back home today - but since my father got struck with C-19 I cannot go home at the moment.

Dad is doing well under the circumstances, still his joking self.

+ One.....

With reported Covid-19 numbers spiking in Wellington last week,
we chose not to attend the George Thorogood & The Destroyers concert
last Saturday night for fear of infection.....

Thus promoting the "complementary" CD that came with the concert tickets, to the most expensive CD on the rack.....

Fortunately Dad has recovered well, for which I'm very grateful. Thanks for your well-wishes. I'm still at my BFs place and have now come down with a bad cold but I do plan to go back home on Monday.
