happy Tuesday! How are you doing? Hope you are having a sunny and fantastic week. You can join the Ten On Tuesday fun on lovely Alyssa's blog. She is a sweetheart!
Oh, and happy World Spay Day!
2. This story touched my heart. Xander is a rescued blind pug who became a certified rescue dog. He visits humans of all ages in hospitals and hospices, assists in community projects and helps raise awareness for the Hands and Words Are Not For Hurting Project. You can read more about it and watch a video about Xander here. I am in love.
3. True.
4. This pony definitely has lots of fun playing with that ball. Love to see happy animals. Found on Cute Overload
5. I can't wait to check out the new show About a Boy. Loved the book. Movie was also good so I am having high expectations.
6. These are libraries. What a great idea. I don't know why I have never heard about this before. The cat seems to love it and I am sure people do so too.
7. I am a little proud: yesterday I kicked my weaker self's ass and went running. 39 minutes. Not too bad for the first time after months. I think it helped that I bought some new running pants last week. I mean, I basically had to wear them. And wearing them without actually running would be kind of stupid.
8. I feel like a Leberwurst (liver sausage) in those pants but I hope they don't look as bad as I think.
9. Last night I had another dream in which people tried to kill me. This time there was a group of guys who wanted to shoot me so I had to hide from them in an house. Then another group of people came who wanted to protect me. At some point I woke up and I could not find out who won which was kind of disappointing but I have to say that the dream itself was very exciting.
10. I don't like talking on the phone at all.
Have a happy Tuesday!
oh wow!
ReplyDeletethat library thing is so cool!!!
I love the idea! So creative!
Delete1.-4. Ah, so much animal cuteness!! When I was younger I really wanted a pony or horse (like all little girls, I guess--kind of cliche?). I outgrew that eventually but I still think that if I had a farm I would have some rescued horses or ponies around--they're so playful, and I think most people don't realize they have that sense of "fun"!
ReplyDelete5. I haven't read the book, but I should.
6. We have one of those little libraries in my town! I found it while walking around one day and had to take a picture. What a cool idea! I should probably make it my goal to walk there each time I've finished a book and trade it in for a new one.
7.-8. Your new running pants look great! You definitely do not look like a leberwurst. I got some new workout clothes too and it does help force you to exercise, because you finally have something cute to wear while you do it!
9. I have the most bizarre dreams like that too, and I'm also disappointed to not know the end! Comes from being a bookworm, I guess.
10. Agreed! I like to Skype with my mom. But otherwise I text people. I don't know why I hate talking on the phone so much, I just always have!
Haha, the funny thing is that I wasn't as crazy about horses when I was a kid but now I love them even more. I loved all animals of course but I never wanted to go horseback riding like all other girls. :) I agree, ponies and horses are so playful, it is so much fun to be around them!
DeleteI definitely recommend the book, it is entertaining! I think my Nick Hornby favorites are High Fidelity and A Long Way Down though!
That is so cool you have a library like that! Hope you can find some good books there!
Thank you, it really motivates me to have these new pants. And thanks for saying that I don't look like a Leberwurst! :) Cool that you for some new workout clothes as well!
Yeah, I guess we read so many books and that influences our dreams! :)
Glad I am not the only one who hates talking on the phone!
Thank you, Katrin!
ReplyDelete1. Oh gosh. New addiction.
4. So cute!
6. That's awesome!
8. Cute shoes! I can't tell you the last time I ran.
9. That's the kind of dream that I HATE.
10. Me too.
Thank you for linking up!
Haha, it really is addictive, isn't it? :)
DeleteI was way too lazy recently as well but I hope I will work out more often from now on!
That library is so cool!
ReplyDeleteAlso congrats on running, and you do not look like leberwurst in those trousers!!
Thank you so much, Celeste! I do feel like a Leberwurst but I guess it is just me then! :)
DeleteI hate talking on the phone too. and I'm proud of you for going running! great job!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Cassie! I definitely want to stick to it! And I am glad I am not the only one who hates talking on the phone!
DeleteI need to play animal scramble :) That sounds like fun! And Xander is the cutest dog ever.
ReplyDeleteLove that quote on the mouse pic and that horse is hilarious :D
I definitely need a library like that - so cool! And I'm so happy for you you got to run, exercise always makes us feel great but it's sometimes really hard to get going.
You do not look like a Leberwurst at all! You look great! :)
Your dreams sounds very interesting - maybe you'll get a story for a book?
There's a first difference between you and I ;) I do love talking on the phone :D
Ich drück Dich ganz feste, liebste Katrin, und hoffe, Du hast eine ganz tolle Woche!
The game is a bit addictive. :)
DeleteI agree, it is so hard to get motivated, especially when the weather is so stupid, gloomy and rainy!
Thanks for saying that I don't look like a Leberwurst!
Hehe, maybe I should write a book at some point!
Ha, I knew that we can't have everything in common. :))
Ich drueck Dich ganz dolle, hab eine tolle Woche!
Hi Katrin
ReplyDeleteNice post! I read about that blind pug on FB. Animals are wonderful! Nice shoes and lovely book racks :)
Thank you, Ankita! Animals really are wonderful!
DeleteYay for motivating yourself to go running! It's always so hard to do but I always feel so good afterward
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree, it is hard to get motivated but I felt so much better afterwards!
DeleteI love that video of the horse!! It reminds me of one I saw on Facebook recently of a deer dancing by its watering hole. :o) I love seeing happy animals!
ReplyDeleteHaha, a dancing deer sounds fantastic! Need to check that out! I love this one:

Makes me laugh soooo much!
:) It is great to see happy animals!
Is Animal Scramble an iPhone game or a board game? Sounds fun and intriguing. And congrats to you for going running!! Feels to good to be active again doesn't it? I hope your dreams calm down a bit, though that last one did sound kinda exciting and cool :)
ReplyDeleteYou can just play it online on your computer when you click the link. It is lots of fun!
DeleteThank you so much! It took me a while to find the motivation to go running! It feels really good. I go hiking sometimes but I wanted to add running too! :) I will keep you updated about the dreams! They are pretty exciting!
Running for 39 minutes is AWESOME. Seriously. I'm lucky if I can run for 10 minutes after not working out for a while!
ReplyDeleteWell, I did not run very fast and I had to walk a bit once or twice but thank you, Alyx! :)
DeleteWhat a great post and I agree with you about animal rights.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Mary! I am glad you agree! Thanks for stopping by, your blog is great!
DeleteI don't like talking on the phone either - but that dream of yours sounds so scary! Wishing you happier dreams! :)
ReplyDeleteGlad we have that in common! And thank you, Rika! I did not have any dreams in the last couple of days but I hope there will be some happy ones!
DeleteOMG When is About A Boy starting? I loved that movie, can't wait to see the show!
ReplyDeleteI think there are 3 episodes so far. Need to watch the last one. But I am sure you would love the show too! It is hilarious!
