World is going mad

Goodmorning everybody!

Well, I suppose everybody has seen the news and it is very depressing! Still the disaster in Japan, followed by the disasters of the nucleair power plants, which still is very scary. The fights in Libia, demonstrations in Bahrein, the huge amount of people trying to get away from Libia and heading all for Italy, and much more things that are happening they even don;t talk about in the moment. It looks as if there is a virus loose on the world and turning all into madness.

How lucky we are in our parts of the world, where we live still in relative peace and good circumstances.Let's be grateful for that.
Oh, no real news about our dvd recorder, seems Jan got some things back as it should be, but I don+t know yet if the Guide+ system is working already. I didn´t dare to ask him and didn+t look for myself either LOL. May be today we will know if it loads it´s tv programs overview again. 
To uplift you a bit I have a few pictures to show you.
Here a few days ago our Dikkie Dik, having a swell time on the couch

Then a picture of Jan in the kitchen, preparing his little pots for the tomatoe seeds. As he doesn´t like it too much to be photographed,  I always have to do it sneeky and quickly,so quality isn´t too well, but it´s funny to see!

And here the whole tomatoe greenery, took this yesterday and see, there are already some sprouts coming up. And I looked again today and they are growing and coming up like mad!

And here a few pics from the garden. with the crocus, first daffodils and even some violets) they were from last year, but decided to bloom again , isn´t that nice?

If you look well, you even see already some of the leaves of tulips peeping up! And the piece of cardboard you see in the back, there I planted some of the dahlia bulbs, and I always try to put the carton of the package, to know where they are LOL.

I kept a bit a low profile yesterday, which means I didn+t too much around the house, but I went out for a moment, to get the left over from my medicins(they didn´t have it all when I first went there) and bought some sunflower oil and a salad and returned home. I have made for dinner some chicken drumsticks in the oven, and also made french fries myself( they taste much better than the ones you buy frozen in the supermarket) and a simple green salad with it. Tasted real good.
If the weather still stays a bit nice, I hope for a bit of sunshine later at day, we might go to the market, I am out of fresh vegetables that I put into the freezer, so good excuse to sniff some air.

I just read Minky´s blog, where she has posted my quickpages and also some real nice gifts she made, and it is funny to read that up north we are all desparately waiting for springtime, as at the same time she is heading for autumn time! Both seasons are wonderful, but for the moment I prefer having springtime, so: come on sunshine and warmth, we welcome you with open arms LOL!
Today I continue with the Book for Children,this is part 1 of book number 2, tomorrow part 2 of it.
Enjoy your day, give us a smile for a smile is like a little  ray of sunshine!
