Traditionally I am feeling quite blue between the years, I guess it usually is a mixture of the dark weather, too much food and the after-christmas blues. Not this year, though. We met some friends of ours who moved to the North of Germany a few days before christmas, as they were visiting for a party and decided to celebrate New Year's with them. We had a great time up in Lübeck, which is a beautiful town, with lots of water and old magnificient buildings. The party was set in the firebrigade building (our friend is with the firemen there) a costume party, motto was "casino". Very cool. all the guys in tuxedos. We partied hard till the morning and then went home by foot. Glorious days with lots of good food and lots of walking the dog. Even a walk along the coast, in the coldest of weather, but nonetheless gorgeous! Lisek was wearing his (actually Mr. Schön's) new GoPro and filming the whole trip. (He also filmed our christmas at my grandma's and next year we will watch his director's cut)

Winter is always a time of redecorating and knitting, to make this time as cozy as possible. I got some knitting books for christmas and was inspired by the Norwegian patterns in them. I have to hurry to get the jumper for Marlon, our godson, ready. He is growing out of things so fast. Knitting baby stuff is the best, because they are finished quickly. I have been getting a bit faster at knitting though, (still slow...)

Redecorating... well I have much more plans, but time is rare, especially as I have just written my paper for the mediation course I am taking and started with Yoga and running again. 2016 is going to be an active year! So far I have only painted the elk hanging in our hallway. He fits much better to our wallpaper with his new white colour.
