still fighting

...with the b****dy virus!!! it gets on my nerves big time! No its not that I just have tones of things that need to get done, or my son that needs to finish some important things for school, or that I cant follow any of my favorite blogs ( blogline hates me right now!)....it makes me just plain crazy that I cant get this sorted out and working nice and easy again..! It makes me mad to write and then needing to wait for one or two MINUTES until the letters appear on the screen! On top this is post No 401 and next month will be my THIRD blogiverary...and I soo want to do something nice to celebrate it.....please dear Goodess of the zeros and naughts help me get this baby going nice and easy again!

You know you are in trouble....

....when you see a screen like this!
Still working on getting the computer back to working normally!!! Hope to see you soon!!!

It´s a good thing...;-)

...I just had something like this in mind! So I could go straight ahead and create this layout for the #16 Mojo challenge!! ( for some more details and journaling, please, go to my Scrap in Style TV gallery...;-)
I have been working a lot behind the scene, but sorry, can´t show you anything right now...;-)

I am really exited about this coming weekend! We will be on the move again, going to my in laws: my friend Sharon from the U.S. is here in Germany and I am going to meet up with her tomorrow!!! I cant wait to see her! It´s been 14 !!! years ( man, time flies like mad!) since we have seen each last. We both did not have any children ( well, me had one in the belly..;-) ) and I have not meet her DH and she has not meet mine. So now we are both married and each of us with two kids!!! What a big difference!! I just know we are going to have a blast!!! When I think of Sharon, I always here her very special way of laughing.....
Hope you will have a good weekend, too...till next week...;-)

...long time no see...;-)

...but today I got lots of eye candy for you!!! Here are the promised pictures from our trip to Berlin:
near were we used to live ( once apon a time!)
Some remains of the wall ( for the tourists to see..;-)

Signs like these can only be seen in Berlin!

near the Reichstag
the so called washing machine

busy Spree traffic
When we came back we had finally our piano transported to the third floor! It could not be moved through the staircase ( much to narrow!), when we moved it. So we had to get it up with a special transporting lift!!! To make it even worst it had to be transported over the front balcony ( with all my newly planted vegies !) and through my studio. To open the door wide enough, I had to take down some of my shelf again! Oh boy, I tell you!!! And the top of it all was that the weather was fine all day long, but as soon as we took the piano out of the garage it started to rain... what a story!!!

I made a new layout for the creative therapy:


On the weekend we did a little shopping trip to the next French town. Its only about 3/4 of an hours drive away and we really enjoyed it!

And they even said thank you for our visit...;-) ( The German says: "Thank you, for crazy visit!!")
On the way back we took the ferry over the River Rhein, which is more of less the boarder between France and Germany around here.

Ahh and I got two very happy things happening: one of my ATCs is going to be published in the upcoming ACEO magazine!!!! Its part of an article about my flickr ATC group...;-)
And I got something great coming up, but I am not allowed to tell you right now....but you will hear about it this autumn...;-)))
