Beautiful Green Woodpecker


I have a friend in Austria, we sometimes chat through the gaming platform Steam as we both are interested in PC games, but that’s not the only topic we talk about. Today, she told me that her father took a photo of a green woodpecker, and she asked me if I would like to show the photo on my blog, as she knows that I like to post a lot of animal photos, and also bird photos since some time. I like the photo, and I am happy that I am allowed to share the photo as I never took … Continue reading Beautiful Green Woodpecker

Daily Prompt: Unexpected Guests


Today the Daily Prompt asks: “You walk into your home to find a couple you don’t know sitting in your living room, eating a slice of cake. Tell us what happens next?”. Instead of answering the question, I can really tell a story about unexpected guests. It´s a long time ago and I am talking about a time when me and my friends were round about 20 years old. Another friend did invite us but we arrived too early and he was still not at home. I am not sure why we did that but a friend said “Look! The … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Unexpected Guests

Daily Prompt: Make Me Smile


The Daily Prompt asks: “If you’re feeling blah, what is the one thing you do that you can count on to put a smile on your face?” and I do think this is fairly easy to answer.

Then, my cat makes me smile often too because she knows when I feel bad and then she comes to me. But playing guitar is … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Make Me Smile

If You Have Polish Neighbors, You Will Get Tasty Snacks…


My mother has Polish neighbors and they are very friendly. My mother even laughed and said they are in fact too friendly. What she means is that they often bring things to my mother like delicious snacks and food. For example if it´s weekend and if her neighbors have visitors, they also will bring some of the delicious things down to my mother and that happens often. But my mother gives them things too, for example if my mother’s husband did cook again some delicious German food. I noticed it is a “give and receive” there and I wish I … Continue reading If You Have Polish Neighbors, You Will Get Tasty Snacks…

Daily Prompt: Something So Strong


Todays Daily Prompt topic is “best friends” as it seems. They write: “Tell us the origin story of your best friend. How did you become friends? What is it that keeps your friendship rockin’ after all these years?”. Well, first I would say that I not only have one best friend. I rather would say it in plural. I found my “best friends” a long time ago. We grown up together in a very rough neighborhood and maybe this alone made our friendship pretty strong. We experienced a lot of shit to be honest and learned early what solidarity means. … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Something So Strong
