She gets her awesomeness from her momma! 😉
She is an amazing young woman. I can’t believe how easily she’s knocking everything out.
It’s also live every night at 7!
Let’s do it!
Watched 4 Tagesschau in Einfacher Sprache and understood almost all of them. Had to look up some theme specific words but that’s what it’s for. Feeling much better about how much German I’ve forgotten.
Probably will lose that feeling after lunch when I do grammar.
Another glorious morning in Berlin. I always have trouble deciding what to do: go outside or go somewhere (I have errands that must be done) or leave the windows open and work on things at home. I could do both. I just can’t get organized enough to do either!
Thanks, ADHD.
That’s what I always liked about Micheal Crichton books. Based in science and he goes that next step. Good fiction is always believable.
My kids have made friends with kids that don’t speak English or don’t speak much English. 🤷🏻♀️
It’s amazing how much using real beef affects the taste. 😉
Gandalf, natch.
AMEN.
I live in the American sector. My youngest child alone would keep them in business. Sigh.
If you see this: quote a pic of you wearing sunglasses 🕶️
Ride my bike to the store. Started watching comfort shows (good place, Ted lasso, finally started golden girls). Coffee with friends. Anything to stay off my phone.
I’m so so sorry. This is the hardest part. ♥️
Owl House and Amphibia are two big rewatch shows here. Big City Greens is also good.
🤣
With oldest kiddo being very into science I figured I better learn some basic terms. Will also help as youngest gets more classes in German.
Sigh. So much to learn! Let’s not even talk about relearning how to do math. (Kids had “common core” and now math is in German.)
I truly love how German nouns are constructed. So descriptive and fairly easy to figure out!
I’m so very sorry. Sending love. I kept waiting for all the updates. ♥️
Using a children’s book from a happy meal to learn basic life science vocab. Sauerstoff is oxygen…sour stuff?? German is funny.
Way to go!
Happiest of birthdays!
Crab pretzels at Orioles games…pretzels covered in carb and cheese.

The salted caramel are THE BEST.
Dislike!
Those folks couldn’t tell you what actually love for your neighbors looked like. 🤷🏻♀️
Jurassic Park. Always.
Now I want to check all the Asian markets here!!
That was my fav part of nursing. It was the ultimate answer!!
