How are you today?

I have another busy week. So Mea Culpa in case I won't be able to reply. Tonight I work at the groceries store. Till yesterday I thought I had the whole weekend off. WRONG!!!!!!!!! Someone got sick and I have to work Saturday from 9 to 5 x(
Still planning on going dancing with friends Saturday night though.

My mood didn't improve considerably since Monday. But I figured out why I am in a shitty mood this week. Can you say PMS x(

1. Good Morning MissHoneychurch!

Why are you always up so early and I'm always up so late? Yeah, I know, it's mid-morning for you... ;)

Y'all have such nice-looking streets over there, too :D

Here, read some of this site and you'll feel better: http://notalwaysright.com/tag/grocery-store

2. Good morning kentauros

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Don't I wish I wouldn't have to be up so early these days ;)

Thanks for the link. This one is funny:

Customer: “Where’s your peanut butter?”

Me: “Aisle 5, just past the bread.”

Customer: “Thanks, man…”

(20 minutes later, I’m also called up to work as a cashier. The customer comes through my line.)

Me: “Did you find it alright?”

Customer: “Weren’t you just over in like… five places?”

Me: “About there, yeah.”

Customer: “Are you God?!”

:rofl: Thanks for making me laugh

[kentauros]

That site is truly hilarious, and you can add your own stories (somehow...) ;)

8. Good morning MissH!

Glad to see you! ;)

I'm up a little earlier than usual, but I had a good nights sleep so I'm in a good mood already. Good way to start the day huh? :rofl:

Awwwwww . . . working on the weekend? Glad to hear that you are still going out, but you know when Sunday morning rolls around, you'll be draggin. ;)

A friend gave me an amaryllis bulb as a Christmas gift and it's just starting to bloom, so I have a picture of the day for you too!



:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

9. Good morning Callalily

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Do you mind sending some of the good mood over to me? :D

Ohh ... the amaryllis looks great!!!! They are beautiful flowers

I know I will be dragging all Sunday but I still want to go out :rofl:

[Callalily]

11. Sure thing!

I've got lots of good mood to spread around! ;)

As far as Sunday goes, when you get up (late of course) don't even get out of your jammies. Make yourself a hot cup of tea, grab your book and head for the couch and alternate between reading and napping. Now that's what I call a perfect Sunday!

[MissHoneychurch]

13. That is what I plan to do on Sunday

:rofl:

Add some watching TV to it and surfing the Internet on my laptop. As long as I don't have to move away from the couch :D

[Callalily]

22. Sounds like the best

kind of Sunday!

I've gotta get ready and head out to work, so wishing you a great day.

:hug:

[ornotna]

10. Good morning MissHoneychurch

Wonderful picture, hope you're in a better mood soon. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

12. Good morning ornotna

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Thank you :hug: Latest next week my mood will get better :eyes: I am not really happy about my mood but it isn't much I can do about. :shrug:

[ornotna]

14. Well, when you go dancing

Make sure you go in the mosh pit and work some of your frustrations out. :P :bounce:


:pals:

[JonLP24]

16. Good morning

I love the building in your picture.

I hope you have fun this weekend even though you have to work. :pals:

There is no outdoor work here where I live. I know I always talk about the weather but this is significant, it's rained twice this week and it's now on it's third round of rain which is very heavy. There is some small floods in areas and it's expected to break a Phoenix record of rainfall in a day. It's been statewide, there is over 9 inches of snow in Flagstaff where it's been snowing all week there as well.

[MissHoneychurch]

18. Good morning Jon

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

The building is the so-called "Koifhus" (Wikipedia: Koifhus, also known as Ancienne Douane - 1480 (German Gothic)). It is an old custom house. http://wikimapia.org/9942073/The-Koifhus

The snow melted here by now :( I want the snow back. It looked less depressing with the white cover. I hope you won't get a full grown flood :pals:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

17. Good Morning Miss Honeychurch!

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :pals:

In a bit of a rush this morning, one of our countermen is on vacation. I fill in there while doing my own job. *thud*

This Sturday I'm meeting some old friends. Going to watch their sons play basketball. Looking forward to a few hours of giggles. :)

I hope you're feeling better soon, and that your Saturday night is a great one. :D

[MissHoneychurch]

19. Good morning SCE

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Ugh ... sounds like you are in for a very busy day :hug:

I wish you fun with your friends and their sons on Saturday!!!

[blueraven95]

20. Good Afternoon, MissHoneychurch!

My day is going to be busy, so I probably won't be around.

Just wanted to say hi!

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

24. Good morning blueraven

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

It is busy here as well, so I know where you are coming from.

:hi: back. Hope everything is well with you, beside the workload :hug:

Sweet dreams :hug:

Das Wort des Tages

der Augenblick (-e) moment

Einen Augenblick, bitte.
Just a moment, please.

Note: "Augenblick" won 4th place in a German contest for the most beautiful German word. It was submitted by Swiss contestant Sabine Brenner. She chose the word because in a clever way "it is too long for what it means and sounds so much more sensual than "Moment." This week we introduce the top five winners, with the number-one word on Friday. Over 22,000 entries were received from 111 countries for the schönstes deutsches Wort contest.

RELATED: der Moment moment


==================
==================

die Geborgenheit (no pl.) security, shelter

Er brauchte besonders in diesem Alter die Geborgenheit seiner Familie.
Especially at this age he needed the security of his family.

Note: "Geborgenheit" took second place in a German contest for the most beautiful German word. It was submitted by Annamaria Musakova of Slovakia (die Slowakei), who liked it because in her language it isn't possible to express the German concept of "Geborgenheit" (which also implies warmth, comfort, and safety). This week we present the top five winners, with the number-one word tomorrow. Over 22,000 entries were received from 111 countries for das schönste deutsches Wort contest.

RELATED: geborgen safe, secure


=================
=================
die Habseligkeiten (pl) (meager) belongings, possessions

Das Kind nahm seine ganzen Habseligkeiten aus seiner Hosentasche.
The child took all his meager possessions out of his pants pocket.

Note: "Habseligkeiten" was chosen as the most beautiful German word by a jury that included the German singer Herbert Grönemeyer, film director Josef Vilsmaier, and writer Uwe Timm. Doris Kalka liked the word because it has a kind, sympathetic undertone. "Habseligkeiten" are the modest belongings of a child or a homeless person—rather than the wealth and possessions of a rich person. This week we presented the top five winners of a contest in which over 22,000 entries were received from 111 countries. - See All Top Five Words chosen.

26. Good morning Blue_Tires

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

That isn't a word of the day but words of the day :)

How are you doing?

[Blue_Tires]

27. I'm fine...but I do have a bunch of paperwork to clear out today...

at least tomorrow is Friday!

[MissHoneychurch]

28. That is what I thought till yesterday evening too

but now I have to work one more day. oh well, it is money, correct?

Ahhh paperwork... something I hate.

[Blue_Tires]

31. are you still working at the supermarket?

I don't remember

[MissHoneychurch]

32. Yes

and I found out yesterday that I have to work Saturday after all.

[Blue_Tires]

39. tough break...hope its a headache-free shift for you

[MissHoneychurch]

42. That I hope too

I don't need another crazy day like last Saturday. That day you could have thought there was a state of emergency the way the people were buying food.

I think tonight will be quiet at least at the store.

Yesterday I got my account info for my mortage. Hey I am down €1000 :woohoo: :eyes:

[Brewman_Jax]

29. G'day, MissH!

:hi: :hug:

Busy is good, that's job security. :)

More rain here, again. :( The rain should be past for the night's soccer games. :thumbsup: Hopefully, the weekend should be nice.

[MissHoneychurch]

33. Good morning Brewman

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

True dat :)

Wishing you the best for not playing soccer in the rain :thumbsup:

[Brewman_Jax]

41. Thanks

hoping for another win. Right now, we're undefeated, 1-0. :rofl:

As the brewman, I have bottled my first big batch of mead (11 1/3 liters) after 6 weeks in the fermenter. It should be ready in March. :beer:

I've been diligent, been running on the treadmill twice a week and outside on the weekends, weather permitting. How are the swimming workouts?

[MissHoneychurch]

43. Compared to all the sport you are doing

I am a wimp.

Swimming is going good. Went there Tuesday again. Next Tuesday is the next time. I also started climbing the stairs at the underground stations instead of using the escalators.

[Brewman_Jax]

47. You can do it!

I believe in you! :D

I do all of that so I can play soccer and drink the stuff I make. Also, the brewman makes beer and soda. Just finished a new cherry soda, along with the orange and root beer. :9 I get the extracts at the brewshop. Making your own soda is easy and cheap. You can have all of the ingredients (soda flavor extract, water, sugar, and yeast) mixed together and into twist-top plastic bottles in about 20 minutes--that fast. :o It will carbonate and taste good in about 3 weeks--that's a bit of a wait. :P

[MissHoneychurch]

48. Mainly I drink water

and only every now and then a coke.

But if I ever make it again to Atlanta I want to try out your home brewed stuff :D

Thanks for your confidence in me :hug:

[Brewman_Jax]

51. Water is good

so is juice.

Keep at what you're doing. Mini-workouts are good, too, like climbing the stairs instead of the elevator, or walking instead of driving (if possible). Just don't stop and you'll be ready for summer in no time. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

53. Since I don't own a car

the driving part is easy. But I live to far away from work to walk there. It takes me about 20 to 30 min by train. I might have to check out how long it would take me with the bike.

[bigwillq]

30. Morning!

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

34. Good morning bigwillq

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

How are you doing today?

[bigwillq]

35. I am well!

Day off!! :woohoo: :hi: How are you?

[MissHoneychurch]

36. Slowly my mood is improving

But I am still not my normal self. Otherwise I am doing fine.

Lucky you to have the day off. Any plans for today?

[bigwillq]

38. No, not really.

I do have to go to a meeting for work tonight, but it's really not a big deal. I still have the whole day off. Think I am just going to relax.

[MissHoneychurch]

40. Sounds perfect to me

relaxing is what I am kinda missing these days :shrug:

[Captain Hilts]

37. Good morning, Miss Honeychurch. It's National Squirrel Appreciation Day here in the States....

http://network.bestfriends.org/groups/theanimalworld/news/archive/2006/01/20/celebrate-national-squirrel-appreciation-day.aspx

All your questions about it are answered here:

[MissHoneychurch]

44. Good morning Captain

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

You mean these cute little critters?

[Captain Hilts]

45. What kind do they have in Germany?

[MissHoneychurch]

46. Originally the red squirrel

but that is being more and more threatend by the grey squirrel, which got "imported" from America.

I took the picture in the U.S.

[Captain Hilts]

49. The English are encouraging people to shoot and eat the grays because

they're out-hustling the reds.

As a red, I'm embarrassed by the inability of the reds to hold their own...

[MissHoneychurch]

50. The other day when I walked to my train station

a red squirrel was on the ground in the snow looking at me and not running away the second it saw me. I wished I had my camera with me.

[Captain Hilts]

52. Awww...

And I still LOVE the photograph of your god-kitten...

[MissHoneychurch]

54. Awww

thank you :hug:

He has grown into a beautiful young man

[Captain Hilts]

55. Looks like my late beloved Mr. Peabody. Pet him for me. nt

[MissHoneychurch]

56. I will

asked AirmensMom to pet him for you since he is living with her in TN. Which means he lives closer to you than to me :rofl:

[NJmaverick]

57. Good morning Miss Honey Church!

Very nice picture. Makes me long for the days of summer.

[MissHoneychurch]

58. Good morning NJmaverick

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Those days will come again :) I am looking forward to the first warm day of spring, when everything smells so nice and is so fresh.

[Vidar]

59. Good morning MissHoneychurch.
