Corona diary: the Frog King of Lammer Holz

Just the crown was missing otherwise we would have met the incarnation: the Frog King of the Lammer Holz! The stupidest thing: I did not even try to find out whether it is a enchanted prince!

Corona-diary: Millenium!

Lo and behold! A local football club sets a good example and simply turnst he gender gab upside down. It utterly states „Ladies first“ in its true sense. Being a woman you are litterally pampered.

Corona diary: Farewell my summer love

„Farewell my summer love“ was a song by Michael Jackson. Some kind of melancholy resonated with it, now it is here. Summer has definitely gone by, the first half of autumn is over and I am taking some time off from everyday life. An everyday life that gets more stressful, Corona makes it even more difficult. But I does not
