Make today so awesome yesterday gets jealous

Hello my friends,
I'm so glad to be back here and there's a lot to tell.
This year, what do I say - the last months of 2013 and this year until October wasn't that easy.
To make a long story short - I got ill and it wasn't possible for me to read or to write. After months and months of running to several doctors they found out that my blood shugar was so high that it was and is a miracle I'm still alive.
When they found out what's going on I for myself changed very much. And if you are that close to death you automatically change how you think, you you live, what's important and what's - let's say - not so important.
My family, especially my husband were like a rock. And believe me - I thout of you a lot and this alone made and always makes me happy. That there are people around me, even when they are not reachable at the moment for me - and I love them.
But now since 4 weeks I can read again and I can write again. YAY! I fell absolutely great.
The past 7 months I lot 80 pounds and it is still going on - I love it. I don't feel hungry, I'm just eating low or no carbs: It' pure fun !
Even my cats love the new recipes. Back to the roots, back to myself - that's what I want to say. And now I'm enjoying this great time, it's already cold here, it smells like snow - they say we will get snow next week. So out with the snow shovel and here we go :-)
Today I'm finally writing Christmas cards - Wolfgang and I got wonderful cards last week - and I feel so happy just doing this.
I always said - it's the little things that counts - after all there months I know it is more than true.

Hopefully you're all doing well.
I missed you soooo much - goodness it's good to be back home again.

Love you all,
Julchen

to all my friends.
We'll get high speed connetion today!!! Hope to be back tonight!!!

Have a wonderful day and a magical weekend, sweethearts!

Love and hugs,
Julchen

Hello my dear friends,

I won't be around the next days. My father had a heartattack on Friday, until this morning we didn't know if he'll make it or not. This afternoon we learned he will survive. Thanks god!
I've to take care of my mother - she can't cope with this.
My colleague at work is still on vacation so it will be a little bit stressful the next week.
At home we have a huge building site in the garden and it has to be finished until next weekend.

It isn't easy at the moment but I'm sure things will be easier in a couple of weeks.

I'll be here whenever I can but I'm sorry that I won't comment that much the next days. 

Thanks a lot for listening, my friends. I'll miss you.

Love and hugs,
Julchen

I'm feeling so much better today! Thanks to all of you for your lovingly words and well wishes.
I can't tell you how many comfort I've found in all of them.
Never ever in my entire life I was that lazy so today I'll start to clean up my rooms a bit (only a bit) and then it's time for a little reading (you folks have been so busy!) .

Have a wonderful weekend, my dear f-list!
Don't forget to get some rest, have fun, just enjoy life!

Love and hugs,
Julchen

Love you all,

Maybe it's the rain ... I don't know why but I'm a little bit whiny today.
No time left for me now, because our office got an invitation from our boss, we'll meet him in one hour... 
and I don't want to go... 

Where's Gandalf when I need him... he could do a magic spell that it would be over... 

Don't take me too serious, it must be the rain... and the coldness...



Hope to see to tonight...
