Lots of mail!!

Wow, last week was a great mail week!! I got five letters in five days - that's not bad, isn't it?!

Briefe-februar

Thank you to all of your - I enjoyed each and every letter alot! It sometimes just seems to me that you arrange with each other about swamping me with letters all at once, ha ha. smilie_frech_026

I have also been a busy bee last week, caught up on my letters a bit and hope to go on like that during the next week. So everybody who is waiting already longer to hear from me, will surely soon get mail, I hope.

Back at home!

Yesterday evening we came back home from our trip to the Allgäu in South Germany. We had so much snow and tried to relax as much as possible, even if it did not work all the time. Still it was a great week, we have seen some great places like Oberstdorf, the Kleinwalsertal and the famous Neuschwanstein castle.

Clara had some more problems to adjust to the new environment than during our trip to Belgium in September, but still she enjoyed things like sliding with her dad and swimming in the baby pool of an Aqua park. It is amazing how smart she is already!!

During our vacation I managed to finish reading "The girl who played with fire" by Stieg Larsson and loooved it! I will post my review here soon. I just wish i have had some more time for myself. I had taken with me several letters to reply to, but in the end, i only managed to finish writing one. I am still so behind with my mail - sorry!!
These weeks are quite stressful for us (emotionally speaking) because we have a big thing going at the moment. I will tell you all in my letters soon, if you should not know about it yet.

So in the end, I will make some new year resolutions although i always avoided them, because I did not stick to them anyway. But a try is worth it, isn't it?! smilie_frech_026

New Postcards

I want to share with you some new postcards which I received during the last weeks:

Estonia-Paernu
This one came from Eda and it shows her home town Pärnu in Estonia. Thank you Eda!! I love how colourful the old towns in Estonian towns look like.

This multi-view of Barcelona was enclosed to my letter from Claudia who spend some days in this beautiful city in fall. Thank you, it made me feel even more like visiting this city some day as well.

Still catching up...

I am only slowly catching up on the pile of letters waiting on my desk to be replied - but I am doing my best. The next letters will be those I received in mid November.

Blog

Just last week, i had to buy two new files to sort my letters in and it brought me to the question:

"How do you store the letters you receive?"

I would love to hear about that and maybe you can even provide a photo of your "letter collection"?!

It's over...

Hello my dear friends,

The year 2009 is almost over. For me, it feels like time flew by. And as every year, it is time to look back.

2009 has enriched our life through the birth of our little daughter Clara in April and since then, nothing is the same anymore. We have been through hard times but also experienced much happiness and joy.
In 2009 we also spent our first family holiday in Belgium which was wonderful and a vacation I will always remember with happiness.
In summer, we were able to meet our Spanish friends Elena and Victor for a week and spent some wonderful time together. Not to forget the meeting with Claudy.

Well, what will bring 2010? I don't make new year resolutions anymore, since I am never able to keep them, but we have big plans for 2010 and I hope we can accomplish everything in the best way.

I want to thank you all for being there for me in 2009 and I look forward deepening our friendship even more in the new year!!

Happy New Year to you all!!

Writing slack

It seems like I am currently in a writing slack - I haven't written a letter for two weeks and I neither can find the time nor the energy to sit down and start writing, although the letters are piling on my desk once again. I am so sorry, especially since some of you are waiting for my reply already for several weeks (maybe even months) and I was really determined to reply at least to Sara and Minna before Christmas who are waiting already for the longest - but could not make it in the end.

sorry

I promise to do my best to catch up on my mail "between the years". Michael will be off then and I hope to find some time for myself and writing letters then. Right now, I feel too stressed and in a rush.
