Good morning Lounge
How are you?

I am sorry I vanished for some time. But work is still interfering with my posting on DU ;)

Today after work I will be going to a wedding. Friends of me are getting married. I studied together with the groom.
And I have a whooping cough since a week that won't go away. Please don't let me draw unwanted attention to myself during the ceremony *pray*

Next weekend I will be going to a birthday. My grandmother is turning 85 on October 10th. There will be a big family gathering. We are planning on doing a "Who wants to be a millionaire?" for my grandma. It is already fun to think of questions. Of course we have some family questions but also questions about history, literature, nature ....

My other grandmother would have turned 90 on the same day but she died in February this year.

Picture of the Day (my grandmother who turns 85 with her brother)

2. Good morning Heidi
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Yes, I will be wearing that dress to the wedding. As well as to the b.day :)

I bought a bolero jacket, so it won't be too cold for me.

How are you and your family?

3. Oh, good!
I loved the photo of you modeling the dress. It really suits you! :hug:

All is okay here, except that my laptop is on its "last legs," so CMW will soon drag me over to the "dark side" of Mac ownership. He has convinced me that buying a MacBook Pro will not only meet all of my computer needs, but make me younger, thinner and smarter. :rofl:

4. Thank you Heidi
:hug:

I was always saying when I grow up I want a Mac. Last Christmas I got a Windows laptop as gift from my family. I guess I wait some more till I grow up :rofl:

7. Ha! Don't feel bad.
I haven't been coming to the lounge much anymore. I'm only here because I was bored.

I'm doing alright, how about yourself?

8. Why aren't you coming to the Lounge
anymore?

Well, I am glad you showed up today :)

I am fine, beside the stupid cough. I work a lot, private life isn't so much going on right now.

9. I'm not sure
I go to Sports forum and LBN usually when I'm on. Everywhere is slow right now on DU so I decided to check out the lounge and saw your post. I'm glad I showed up too. :)

10. And good morning to you!
Nice picture of your grandmother and granduncle(?). For a million Deutschmarks, what's the story of the wall behind them?

:hi:

11. Good morning JustABozo
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

He is my great uncle :)

The wall was part of a monastery in Poland we visited a few years ago. I have to admit I forgot the name of the monastery. So I guess I won't get the million Deutschmark :cry:

12. Good morning MissH!
What a lovely picture of your grandmother and her brother. Such a nice tribute.

Sorry to hear that you haven't been feeling well, and hope that you are on the road to recovery!

Looking forward to seeing photos of you from the wedding and birthday party in that fabulous dress. Good idea to get the bolero. I don't know about over by you, but here it's getting colder with each passing day.

And,

GLAD TO SEE YOU HERE AGAIN!



:hug: :hi: :loveya:

14. Good morning Callalily
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Not sure I can provide pictures from the wedding but I will definitely provide pictures from the b.day.

I just went to the pharmacy and bought half its stack to fight the cough. During the day it isn't as bad but at night it is no fun.

The weather is cool here too. That was the reason I got the bolero :)

Glad to see you :hug:

Gotta head out for work, so wishing you a grand weekend.

Just made me another pot of tea with honey. That helps too :)

You have a wonderful weekend yourself!!!! :hug:

13. Well look what the cat dragged in!...
I was scrolling and saw the man in the picture first and thought THAT'S YOUR GRANDMOTHER? But I kept going and saw her next. Whew! :)

:hi:

Hope you feel 100% again soon!

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

If it was a cute cat that dragged me in I don't mind :D

:rofl:
You know what is funny? My grandma is 10 years older than her brother and even nowadays she treats him like the little brother she took care of when they were young.

Just realized an entire thread of mine has been disappeared. There was nothing offensive in it that I can imagine.

Going now. Bye.

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

It is good to see you again too :hug: How are things with you?

I love this pic of them too.
In my family women tend to get very old (over 90), so the chances are pretty good :)

31. Good morning, Miss Honeychurch!
.
.
.
I've missed your "starts to our morning" -- but you post
them as you see fit.
.
My ex-wife's grandmother was in her 80's and lived in
Munchen. We would visit as often as we could. She was a
beautiful, sweet woman who was still living on her own.
.
.
We would always take her a bottle of eierlikor and, after
one or two shots, she would giggle like a schoolgirl and
we would help her to bed.
.
.
Enjoy yourself at the wedding.
.
Any way that you could practice and turn your coughing
into a rendition of the wedding march?
.
.

32. Good morning MFM
:hi: :hug:

Now there is an idea with the cough .... only problem is that I am not really melodic. But maybe if I practice till next weekend I get the "Happy Birthday" tune correct :)

What a sweet memory. Ah yes Eierlikör, a very German thing ... except you have egg nogg and that is similar :)

34. Good morning, Miss H
Tell Grandma Honeychurch I said happy birthday.

I'm doing pretty good this morning. I'm in Deer Lodge, Montana and I'm getting ready to start my day. The sun is just now coming up here.

My birthday is coming up in a few days, as well. On October 4th I'll be 38. I'm getting to be an old man. The last time I was at the barber he told me that I was at least a third gray. I hadn't even noticed before then, but it is true.
