Hello hello, I am back! Apologies for the absence over the last week and a half while I was travelling in Germany. The Fazerland (largely) remains a wifi desert, i.e. once I had left Kate, my access to wifi became problematic. Despite checking into a four star hotel in Munich, their wifi was deplorable. We…
Try saying that. “Otps” Not really that snazzy a term, I guess. But how do you describe a pocket shrine that is off topic? Off Topic Pocket Shrine – OTPS. There are only a handful of those. The pocket shrine is really reserved for Mr A. In the past I have only cheated on him…
OMG, the excitement doesn’t end. Or rather – whatever goes for excitement these days. So here comes a little update on the grievances and occurrences that have been keeping me distracted for a moment or two this week. This morning we had four plain clothes detectives in my house, searching one of the premises that…

Father’s Day is already over. But today is *my* father’s day. His 6th anniversary. I have never really liked the convention of remembering loved ones by the date of their death. It’s as if their defining feature was their passing – instead of their life. But I admit, it is a handy occasion to remember…
Finally something worth reading on Twitter by Mr A. The privilege to live a life free from fear, to go to work, to feed yourself, to have a safe home, to be educated, to be treated when you are sick, to have peace and happiness, is a privilege that belongs to every human being regardless…
First of all: A massive thank you to all of you who did me the favour of following me on Instagram for my crafts account Scissors and Smiles. I only opened it yesterday but now that I have it, I intend to keep it going with pictures of the stuff I make – and some…
For all who need it – including me. Sorting through my dad’s estate, reading, smiling, crying. I’d like to keep everything he ever touched because letting go feels like erasing his memory. Take care!
I still think of papa every day. I miss him. It’s his fifth anniversary today. He gave me more than just a piece of sky. Also unforgotten: The kindness of my fellow fans at a time that I needed you. Thank you, I will forever appreciate your support, your words, your gifts, your presence. Peace…
With a sore throat and a nasty cold. It was really chilly over there, and I was more than happy that I had my woolly hat with me for the four days. Mind you, a lot of that time was spent indoors, as there were three absolutely stunning photo exhibitions on that I *had to*…
