Happy Birthday, Dad!

To the most wonderful and marvelous Dad on Earth:

You are the most lovable and kind person I know!
You are always generous and nice to people, although you work hard you always find time to talk and listen to what people, especially your family, have to say.
You must have the most enlightening humour I know of, you always know how to make me and the kids laugh.
You are so funny! We love you so much!
You have always sticked to what you believe is true and good. This amazes me and makes you my Idol!
Dad, we all love you very much.
Happy Happy Birthday, Dad, and many many returns of the day!
Because of the snow (no busses today!) we will not be able to come over, but as soon as we can we will celebrate. In the meantime you can delight yourself knowing you will receive this

Test-What age do you act?


You Are 26 Years Old



Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.
13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.


20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Reicht es jetzt...

...endlich mit dem Schnee?
Seht selbst:
Ja, heute hat es nur einmal geschneit und zwar durchgehend. Furchtbar!
Donna hatte am Abend Ministranten-Dienst und sollte danach mit dem Bus heimfahren, aber kurz davor wurde der Busverkehr wegen Unpassierbarkeit der Straßen eingestellt.
Handy lag natürlich daheim, so musste man sich darauf verlassen, daß die Stadtwerke Durchsagen an den Haltestellen machten und sie dann heimläuft.
Um 19.20 Uhr (eine Stunde nach dem Gottesdienst) kam sie dann daheim an.
-Stromausfälle überall und ganze Handynetze sind ausgefallen.-
-Unwetterwarnung! Baumbruchgefahr!-
Der Schnee liegt jetzt schon kniehoch und es ist noch kein Ende der Schneierei in Sicht.

Aber mal abgesehen vom Chaos und den Folgen des Ganzen: Es sieht schon megamäßig cool aus!
Aber:
ICH WILL FRÜHLING!!!!!
Mit Sonne und Vögelge"schrei" und Krokusse und grünes Gras und so!
BITTE!

Einen Anruf von meiner Wollfee...

... habe ich heute bekommen!
Mann oh Mann war ich aufgeregt und habe wohl lauter Blödsinn gelabert!
Aber schön war es, aufregend und wunderschön! Danke liebe Wollfee, Du hast mir wirklich einen süßen Schock verpasst!
Ich bin hinterher noch mit einem Riesengrinsen durch die Gegend spaziert, um nicht zu sagen: Geschwebt!

Und stellt Euch vor, was ich Blödi gefragt habe.....: "Und, was strickst Du denn für Deine Wollprinzessin?
*vordenKopfklatsch*
bis mir bewusst wurde, was ich da gefragt habe, denn die Prinzessin bin ja ich! Oh weiah, wie peinlich!
Aber die liebe Fee hat tapfer dicht gehalten und mich gescholten, daß ich mein Abschlussgeschenk noch nicht mal angefangen habe! Wo sie Recht hat, hat sie Recht!
Also schnell ab zum Wollprinzessin-abschlussgeschenk-anschlag!
