I Can't Await Spring

I can't await spring, so I already changed my blog-design. We are counting the days until the first March-week will be over. After this date there used to be no snow any more here at us.

Outside it's still dark and rainy, weather that really makes you depressive. But for the weekend they forecasted sunny and warm spring-weather with temperatures up to 18°C (64°F), which is pretty warm. We hope that we can sit on the terrace this Sunday for the very first time. The bench is already waiting there.

Yesterday I made two people happy and this made me very happy, too. These two people have been Jim and Carol; both are searching for their Waldecker ancestors and I could help them with a little information. Jim commented on my post "Special for Jim" and both sent me a lot of nice emails I appreciated very, very much and which I'm going to answer soon. This is the point, when I think that all the entire work doing research on Waldecker immigrants is worth to be done, although it's mostly much, much, much work and sometimes pretty frustrating when I can't find the information I'm looking for. But I know that there are people outside who are also searching and helping them is always a good thing, like I also always found a lot of nice people in America, who helped me with my investigations. People who do research on genealogy are a bit like a big family all over the world.

Ulme, adventures of my dachshund-lady

• Spring, the calendar says spring!
• Sunshine and flowers, but...
• Mr. Spring hasn't looked at the calendar.

By the way, this is the real Ulme, my dachshund:

Redgar's Cousin

Redgar

It's not really what I wanted, but it's a first idea how to draw my cousin's figure "Redgar":

Totally Overdone

• In fact, the ceiling looks like the wall...
• There is only one conclusion reasonable: Getting up is totally overdone.
• Zzzzzzzzz

I wish I could lie in my bed and rest a bit. But I'm very busy today:

• Wrooooooooom!
• !mooooooooorW
• Humans use to spend too much energy on doing nothing important.

Show-Cookies

1. I love this show!
2. Because there is always a happy end.
3. The cookies are done!

By the Way: Magic Lights

Translation:

1. "Uhhh, my stomach...time for a little midnight snack."
2. without words
3. *BURP*   "Ooooops, I must have swallowed the light bulb of the fridge."

Some Days are Boring

Translation:

1. Without words
2. Look, I can make funny grimaces!
3. No wonder that I use to sleep 18 hours a day!

Only Another Cartoon: Friedolin

Translation:

1. Friedolin, my sweetheart!
2. without words
3. He's a gifted lover!

Ulme likes Friedolin, which is a cuddly toy made for laying it in front of doors to prevent incoming air during winter. We wondered why Friedolin always seem to move through the whole room, until we found out, that Ulme played with it.
