A low Sunday.


At the end of a few days during the weeks I always look forward to kick back with A. when we can enjoy some good TV-shows together. Afterall, once all the Work is done and when the Kids are in Bed, that is when we get to be " only " a Couple again.
Though our Taste in Television varies, we do enjoy  to watch Shows together. Mondays are usually ' Being Human ' and ' Harry's Law ' to watch... oh yah, and also ' Chuck ' ( A. is a big Fan ). Tuesday we relax on the Sofa to ' No Ordinary Family ' ... Wednesday evenings I get chills watching ' Ghosthunters ' by myself, when on Thursday we switch to ' Fairly legal ' and/or ' Royal Pains ' ( whenever it shows ).

Oh yeah, and whatever happened to ' Sanctuary ' and ' Haven ' ?? I really liked those Shows and wish they'd be brought back !!
Me personally, I like ' The History Channel ' and everything simular to it... and on Fridays I solo a ' Freaky Friday ' in my Livingroom if I'm in the Mood to.

Today was prettymuch a low day, nothing really big went on. A. and I decided to bring a Bike to the Shop for repairs, had a quick stop at Gamestop for Erin's DSi ( ssshhhh, Easter Bunny ! ). The Kiddos played Lego after returning from Church while A. and I read Books in the Livingroom. We had  Irish Stew for Dinner and then went to see ' Red Riding Hood ' at the Movies. Home again we chose to play a round of  SORRY, then it was OFF TO BED for all 3 Boys !! - Only the 2 dogs and I are still awake. So yah, it was a quiet yet nice Sunday... and after walking the Fluffs I should go and hit the Hay aswell.

Goodnight everyone
and a great Start to another great Week to you ! :)

A little Piece of Ireland.

My Hubby and I are huge Fans of Ireland. There were, and still are, Times when we google Properties for sale at the green Isle. My Husband was born there so his Connection to the Land is far more stronger.
Maybe one Day we'll spend our Retirement Days there, living in a little House in the Countryside, with 2 Horses and Dogs. Well, honestly said, we always thought it would be just perfect for an American/German Family to live at: The Language spoken is , of course, English and the Location would be great aswell. It wouldn't take longer than 6 hours to fly either way, nomatter if to the Eastcoast of the USA or towards european-centered Germany.

But for now I'll dream of that ONE Day to come, maybe, put in an Irish Music CD, go " Green " for St. Patrick's Day and pamper my Family with irish Goodies...
