Been a sort of Busy Bee


At least I suppose I’ve been busy, but there are surely LOTS of bees here in Germany.  In fact, there have been a lot more bugs in general than I had expected, since the weather warmed up.  I’ve had an ant problem and I keep finding increasingly larger spiders throughout the house.  I also, have bites all over my legs that are unlike anything I’ve ever had. They take a ridiculous amount of time to heal and itch something fierce!

Is there hope and humanity left in the world?

personal rantings that I just need to let out.
I live in a world where the media pounces upon and amplifies tragedy.  Where freedom of speech has crowed out the morals of courtesy and respect.  Where religious wars rage everyday in public forums in every corner of the web.  Where a whole community of teenager’s reality is so skewed, they view a rape victim as the runnier of the rapist’s lives. And as I am so desiring to have a baby, I can’t help but ask myself; is this the world I want my children to grow up in?

Frühlingsfest

AKA: Huge amounts of glorious flowers EVERYWHERE!
Last Saturday we went to our first Frühlingsfest (which means Spring Festival) and my first Volksfest. I was in awe of all the flowers!  Every other tent was full of fresh cut flowers by the bundle and beautifully arranged bouquets, for no more than 10EUR.
