Weird? Pretty much.
Dina:
It's New Year here! (Since 25 minutes ago) and I wish it is a wonderful one for everyone!! :) :)
(Hubby is doing better. For now, no surgery but that could change in the future. Still in the hospital, so receiving the year here was all an experience! Of course, not a one I wish anyone, but an experience anyway. Details in another moment, now it is time to celebrate!!!)
Fcrate:
Good news Dina :) Is he staying in the hospital for much longer?
Happy new year to all! I beat you guys there by one hour (Europeans) and 5 hours (Dina). My family surprised me with a visit here at the farm. We had a lot of fun, although my nephew stepped on my dog's injured foot and got lightly bitten. It didn't bleed, but the incident (and my subsequent lecture) drove home the lesson, hopefully. The little guy is a bit too cruel to animals for my taste. He is only 6 though, so there's room for improvement :)
@Regen: That song reminded me of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" for some reason :D
Also, I checked the date on my brother's picture. That was on Christmas day, and it was -7 C in Berlin where he lives.
Arjan:
Happy new year!
Dina:
Happy new year, Arjan and everyone!
Hubby is still in the hospital, no idea when he will be released but, as the doctor he needs to see does not work on weekend, we won't even have news until at least Monday (I am not sure if the doctor works on Monday or not). Then, it is everyone's guess.
We had very hot days since Christmas, but today, January first, we have a colder day (23°C at noon) and rain, lots of rain. At least, rain came hours after the New Year, so everyone could have their intended meetings and all that.
I hope everyone is enjoying themselves today :D :D
Regenbogen:
@Arjan:
Thank you! Happy new year yourself!
@Fcrate:
OK, this explains it. It was definitely colder around Christmas. Though I was glad, we didn't have below 0 here any more, because it was raining all the time. That would have meant ice on the streets. I think, January will be cold again.
@Dina:
I am sure, the doctor will be there on Monday.
As for today:
We did nothing special. Played Mario cart Wii. I finished "Go tell the Bees that I am gone". Discussed the book with a friend.
We ate the rest of the goulash with red cabbage and Spätzle from yesterday. By now I think the punch bowl will be empty, too. I drank too much of it too fast yesterday. Almost didn't make it to midnight, lol. But the fresh air outside helped. There were some neighbours who managed to purchase fireworks, before it was forbidden. We just howled ourselves and banged two pot lids together. 8) Most of our direct neighbours were away at their grown kids' homes.
Now we are watching Ghostbusters #1 on TV. ;D
I was hoping to see some news on Jim's website, but there wasn't anything yet.
I'll try to (re?-)read The Eye Of The World next, because we have finished the first season of the TV series recently and I'm still not sure if I've ever read any of the books. ;)
