Thoughts:

This weather is getting on my nerves! I can't remember when my hayfever last took over my life. Before I get up in the morning my body is itching and when I get up I can't see because it's as if there was a screen stuck to my eyeballs, then the real itching starts; it's a wonder my eyes don't wear out from all the rubbing.

 

Today Heike couldn't sleep, so she got up at seven:thirty; much too early for me, it's Sunday and I don't get out of bed until nine. When I eventually got up she had been waiting an hour and a half for me and I was moody; the poor las'. It's not an easy life living with me!

 

Yesterday we had planned on cycling to Leck to visit our daughter and have a coffee in a cafe that opened last week. The idea was good but it didn't work out, my havfever put an end to our plans. Instead we walked through town and I took some door/entrance photos. Our plan today is Leck again, but in the car, that is if I can persuade Heike to go there with me (we had a bit of a niggle, because of my attitude or as I call it hayfever). Like I said it's taken over my life!

 

 

Friedrich Paulsen School
Main building

Friedrich Paulsen School
Behind this door there used to be a dormitory

Two well kept wooden doors
The house was built in the thirties; I don't know how old the doors are.
 They won't be the original doors, the house was built in a workers estate and sold to the public in the eighties.

I like this house!
The cellar is built above ground and the house on top;
nothing for a handicap person

Today I end with a flower:
how original!

 

That's it for today

My wish is that I will be fresh and friendly tomorrow

We shall see.
