Good morning Lounge

[MissHoneychurch]

It is Thursday .... almost weekend :) Not that I can relax this weekend, I have to clean my old apartment and still a bunch of boxes to unpack at the new place. I will be busy.
But I will be glad that the work week is over and I can sleep in a bit. Not that I am able to sleep long but at least a bit longer than 7am :D

Picture of the Day

[Heidi]

1. Good morning!

What a lovely photo! Lake? Sea? :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Good morning Heidi

Bodensee :D

[AirmensMom]

3. Good morning, MissHC!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Don't know why I'm awake at this hour.

Nice pic. How's the unpacking coming?

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Morning AirmensMom

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Full moon????

Did everything go well yesterday?

Unpacked some more boxes yesterday, moved some boxes to the rooms where the stuff is coming to .... still enough to do :)

[AirmensMom]

5. Not sure ...

too much on my mind, I think.

It went OK. Ran into problems first thing ... not like we're surprised, right? So something that should have taken an hour max took 4 hours. They're doing a good job, though. It's just going to cost more than we thought unless they can pick up the pace today.

You're making progress. Of course, you always end up with one last box full of stuff you don't know what to do with, but you're a little ways off from that. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

6. Could be a possibility too

:hug:

Thanks for the encouragement. I know already I need some small nice boxes to put away my pictures for example. I have a bigger desk now but no drawers to put stuff in .... you get the idea.

What was the problem they ran into? Did you tell K about it?

[AirmensMom]

8. More than likely.

:hug: Thanks.

I like bankers boxes for that kind of thing. They are a nice size and the tops lift off. Do they have such things in Germany? I've beat mine all to pieces with all the moving and taping/untaping. Time to get some more. these look nice!

(Can't seem to get the link to work ... trying again.)

I emailed ... I told him about the problems here and he told me about the problems there. :banghead:

[MissHoneychurch]

10. I'm thinking about something like that

I need to meassure the shelves first.

[AirmensMom]

12. Oh, that's even better!

:bounce:


Going to try for a little more sleep. Wish me luck. :hug: :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

13. Sweet dreams

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. Good morning, my dear MissHoneychurch!

What a lovely picture!

I am so glad you're moving into your new home! May it always delight you...

It's after 0100 here, and I will soon be off to bed!

No idea why I'm still up!

Have a great day!

:hug:

[Road Scholar]

9. Good morning.

Don't start anything new after Thursday afternoon. Thursday afternoon is the official beginning of the weekend. Especially for people who have just moved. I hope you are doing well.




Shrimp boats is a comin' There'll be dancin' tonight.

[MissHoneychurch]

11. Good morning In_Transit

please eat some shrimp for me!!! I LOVE shrimp!!!! I would kill for having some right now. They are so expensive in Germany, I barely eat them. But then, it is good again because the protein isn't good for my skin x(

I got a lot of books back from another department. I have enough to do for the next days.

[ghostsofgiants]

14. Morning!

It is 7am, I should probably be asleep, but I just finished posting a huge-ass post on my blog and decided that rather than sleep, I should come to DU, haha.

[MissHoneychurch]

15. Good morning

:hi:

7am was about the time here in Germany when I hit the snooze button again and turned around to sleep a little bit more :rofl:

[ghostsofgiants]

16. I'm about to do that sleep part, at least.

:P

[MissHoneychurch]

19. Do that

I had to drag my ass out of bed at one point :rofl:

[malta blue]

17. Good morning missH!!

:hi::loveya:

I am sooooo glad the work week is almost over too!!!

I found one necklace, one earring and a charm at the police station yesterday. That was it:( but at least those jerks are now charged with multiple burglaries. When I identified the stuff they told me it was up to 21 burglaries, and there was still stuff to identify!

Have a terrific day!

[MissHoneychurch]

18. Good morning malta blue

at least you found some and know that they have been captured. I hope that thought helps you a bit :hug: Maybe they find your other jewelery too.

[malta blue]

21. I am really glad that they have been caught.

At least they can't victimize others for a while.

[MissHoneychurch]

24. I am glad for you too

:hug:

[Angleae]

20. There is nothing good about mornings

Humbug I say.

[MissHoneychurch]

25. Good morning sunshine

:D

[Angleae]

50. Hey, I resemble that.

[Callalily]

22. Morning MissH!

Great pic! My aunt lived in Lindau, but that was a long time ago.

I wish my weekend was starting. As a matter of fact, I with I could just stay home today. Temp is -13F. They were announcing school closings yesterday already. When they chill factor is -25F for several hours in a row, schools are called off. A lot of students have to stand around and wait for the bus, very dangerous.

:hug: :hi: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

26. Morning Simply

when I lived at the lake, I lived on the opposite end of Lindau. Lindau is a beautiful town. When you come to Germany I take you there.

Brrrr .... that is cold. Our temps are in the 30s again.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Callalily]

28. Yes, that's a beautiful

part of your country.

Yes, it's SUPER COLD here. I'm just dreading going outdoors. Wish I could just stay home, put a few logs in the fireplace, settle on my sofa with a nice cozy blanket and a good book, with a hot cup of tea by my side.

Oh well . . . I'd best start to get ready for work. *sigh*

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

29. Ohhh

that sounds nice .... can I come and join you?

Have a great day :hug:

[Random_Australian]

23. Morning! I just saw "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button".

It was really good - I was genuinely (and pleasantly) suprised. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Good evening R_A

what is the movie about? Never heard of it.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

30. Good Morning MissHoneychurch :)

Good luck with the new place. :hug:

7am and 23F. brr

Tomorrow it'll be under 10. More blankets please. ;)

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

31. Good morning

:hi:

Thank you.

Isn't it hard to get up in the mornings with temps like this? I am freezing alone at the thought of it.

[blueraven95]

32. Good Afternoon, MissH!

I'm still really busy at work...so I won't be around much, but how are you?

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

33. Good morning blueraven

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Pretending to be busy. I have enough to do but not really in the mood to work today.

[blueraven95]

34. I realized late yesterday that we are supposed to have a

student from Germany coming here at the end of the month, and I haven't processed any of his paperwork. Oops.


I can't wait until this week is over - the workload should decrease significantly. :D

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

35. Then you better do that

I hope he/she isn't waiting for it :)

I might leave in an hour when the library closes.

Lucky you, working today and tomorrow and then again only next Thursday and Friday ....

[blueraven95]

36. I'm really looking forward to the break!

Today and tomorrow are going to be 15 hour days. :(

[MissHoneychurch]

37. Ugh ....

that are almost two work days to the 8 hours work day :hug:

[blueraven95]

43. yep

I should be really entertaining tomorrow from the lack of rest. :D


So besides cleaning the old place and unpacking the new one, do you have any plans for the weekend? You should definitely take a break, maybe go to the movies. I highly recommend Slumdog Millionaire, if it's out there (I have no idea where it's been released worldwide).

[MissHoneychurch]

45. No other plans for the weekend

but who knows what will happen ... maybe with the move guy :evilgrin:

[blueraven95]

49. oh you totally should.

is he hot?

[BarenakedLady]

38. Good morning

Lovely picture.

Tough day for me, but hopefully I'll get through it.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

39. Good morning BNL

:hi:

why tough day? And good luck with everything :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

40. Well.

It's first day of separation/divorce mediation. I'm twitchy and clueless, but hopeful. Thanks for the good luck, I'm going to need it.


:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

41. Oh

I didn't know that. :hug:

Best wishes and vibes from over the ocean. I wish you strength and a good mediator.

[BarenakedLady]

44. I haven't been specific in my woes.

Just posting non-specific whines lately. Heh.

Today is step one...

:scared:

[MissHoneychurch]

47. You will do fine

:hug:

[Inchworm]

42. Mornin' MissHoneyChurch

Slowly but surly getting to a point where you can look back a week in time and let out a big sigh of relief knowing that you've finished.

:applause:

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

46. Good morning Inchworm

:hi:

Yesterday I saw a big stuff animal in a shopping window with the name "Inchworm" :rofl:

It will take a bit longer till I get everything in order but I start to see where everything goes and I start to find my living room again underneath the boxes :D

:hi:

[Inchworm]

48. That's cool

Hehe. I do that sort of thing quite often in my mind. You know.. associating something with a DUer. You actually have done it to me a few times. I have a buddy up around NYC that moves diplomats internationally for a living. He's mostly a worker type but he's in charge of the job when he's assigned.

I got to thinking... it takes him 1-2 days to pack a full house, 1-2 on unload, plus time in the middle. I was comparing you to him in my head and discovered that you are practically a professional! :)

:P
