Es handelt sich um unser letztes Projekt. Die Grosse moechte naechstes Halloween gerne als eine Hobbitfrau verkleidet sein und das Kostuem dazu selbst schneidern. Bei zwei Naehanfaengern lohnt sich die Anschaffung einer Schneiderpuppe nicht. Anleitungen zum Selbermachen bieten Pinterest und Google hinreichend. Sie hat gerade eine Woche Uni frei und ist aus Halifax zu Besuch. Vorgestern ging es dann mit einer grossen Rollen Panzerband bewaffnet los. Dieses Projekt ist sehr intim und ich wuerde es nicht fuer total Fremde empfehlen. Wir hatten Spass und viele sehr lustige Momente!<br />
<br />
No, I didn't start abusing our firstborn ;o). It's about our last project together. She would like to be a female Hobbit next Halloween and plans to sew the costume herself. Buying a dress form for 2 sewing newbies is out of the question. Instruction on how to make one yourself are all over Google and Pinterest. She is home from Halifax for a week due to reading week at the University. 2 days ago we started with a huge roll of duct tape from the Dollar Store. This is a very intimate project, that I would not recommend for complete strangers. We had a good time and several very funny moments!<br />
<br />
Anleitungen gibt es u.a. hier (wir haben gemixt):<br />

Als erstes zieht das Opfer ein altes T-Shirt an. Hals und andere freiliegende Stellen mit Kuechenpapier schuetzen, lange Haare hochstecken. Wir fande es am einfachsten, wenn die zu beklebte Person Streifen schneidet und die andere Person klebt.<br />
Start having you victim put on an old T-Shirt. Cover neck and other exposed areas with on your victim with paper towel, pull up long hair. We found it easiest if the "to be taped person" cuts strips and the other person tapes them on the body.<br />

Um den Oberkoerper zu definieren sollten zuerst direkt unter der Brust und dann der "Ausschnitt" geklebt werden. Fuer die Busen selbst empfehlen sich kuerzere Streifen, damit die Rundungen einfacher zu formen sind.<br />

Depending on how low you would like to tape it's recommended to have at least 2 very large or 4 smaller rolls of tape on hand.</div>

Das Aufschneiden der Form ist fuer mich der schlimmste Teil gewesen, schliesslich wollte ich ja mein Kind nicht erstechen. In einem Tutorial wird empfohlen, die 2. Hand zwischen dem Koerper und der Scherenhand zu fuehren um Schnitte zu vermeiden. Trotzdem habe ich sie mindestens 2 Mal gepikst :(. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Cutting the dress from open was the worst part for me, since I did not want to stab my kid. In one of the tutorials they recommended to put the second hand between the body and the scissors to avoid cuts. I poked her at least on 2 occasions anyway :(.</div>

Gestern hat Svenja dann die Form mit alten Kleidungsstuecken, Handtuechern und Lappen ausgefuellt. Zwischendurch hat sie die Masse der Puppe mit ihren eigenen verglichen, um moeglichst nah an der Realitaet zu sein. Wer kein Gestell bauen moechte, kann oben am Halsausschnitt einen Buegel als Aufhaengung einarbeiten.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Yesterday Svenja filled the dress form with discarded clothes, towels and rag. In between she compared the forms measurements with her own to be as close to reality as possible. If you don't want to built a stand, you can work in a clothes hanger in the neck area.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Was machen wir beim naechsten Mal anders:</div>
-nicht zu stramm um den Bauch wickeln (die Form hatte Miederfunktion und ist einige cm schmaller, woran sich im Nachhinein nichts mehr aendern liess)<br />
-ueber die Huefte wickeln<br />
-noch mehr Lagen Klebeband verwenden<br />
-kuerzere Streifen verwenden<br />
-ein engeres darunter T-shirt verwenden<br />
-eine "Achselhoehe" einarbeiten<br />
<br />
What we will do different the next time:<br />
-not wrap the tummy area as tight (the form worked like a corset and was several cm smaller, which we could not change in the aftermath)<br />
-tape past the hips<br />
-use even more layers of tape<br />
-use shorter strips<br />
-wear a tighter shirt underneath<br />
-build in a armpit<br />
<br />
<br />
Habt noch eine wunderschoene Restwoche!<br />
Have a wonderful rest of the week!<br />

Mr. H. hat mein Weihnachtsgeschenk fertiggestellt und seid gestern haengen die alten Fensterrahmen. Auf meine Bitte hin sind sie erstmal nur weiss gestrichen, der fuer die Kueche hat Hasendraht dahinter zum Befestigen von Bildern, Blumen etc. <br />
With one snow storm after the other the changes in the house are coming along nicely. Mr. H. finished my Christmas present and since yesterday the old window frames are finally up. As per my wish the are only painted white for now, the one for the kitchen has some chicken wire on the back to put on i.e.pics, flowers. <br />

Ein hiesiger Baumarkt hat grosse Spanplatten im Angebot und ich hatte die Idee, damit neue Tueren fuer Kueche und Bad zu bauen. Wer schon laenger mitliest, weiss seit wieviel Jahren ich die Kueche gerne anders als in Eiche haette (so gar nicht mein Stil) und wir uns bisher nicht rangetraut haben. Der Aufwand bei den vielen Rundungen und Rillen schreckt ab, soviel Schmiergelei, glatte Flaechen sind so viel einfacher zu bearbeiten! Entweder bekommen sie Leisten im Shakerstil obendrauf oder wir lassen sie glatt. Dazu muessen die eigentlichen Schraenke gestrichen werden (innen auch, da alt und vergilbt). Aber rollen kann ich, muss ich mir mit der Sehenscheidentzuendung eben einteilen oder die Jungs anlernen. <br />
A local hardware store has big plywood sheets on sale and I got the idea to build new doors for the kitchen and bathroom out of them. If you are following for a while, you know that I've been dreaming of painting the ugly old oak cabinets for a couple of years now, but we have been afraid to just tackle it. The effort with all the curves and grooves in the beadboard is just overwhelming. A flat surface or even shaker style are so much easier to. Of course we would still have to paint the cabinets inside (to much yellowed to look pretty) and out. I'm quick with the roller and if the carpal tunnel is bugging me, I'll train the boys ;).<br />

Wir misten munter weiter ueberschuessiges aus, auf Mr. H. bin ich besonders stolz! Er scanned interessante Artikel aus seinen vielen deutschen Lasterzeitungen und will zu dann entweder verschenken oder entsorgen. Das sind ein paar Jahrgaenge pro Marke und viele Regalmeter mehr Platz, yeah!<br />

Seit etwa 4 Wochen ist endlich der Antrag auf canadische Staatsbuergerschaft gestellt. Hoffentlich der letzte grosse Papierberg fuer die naechsten Jahre. Gehoert haben wir noch nichts, ich weiss aber von einer britischen Bekannten, dass erst nach 2 Monaten ueberhaupt deren Bestaetigung kam, dass alles vorliegt. Der ganze Prozess dauert etwa 2 jahre, viel Warterei liegt daher noch vor uns.<br />
About 4 weeks ago we send of our applications for the Canadian Citizenship. Hopefully the last huge stack of paper for a couple of years. We haven't heard anything yet, but I know from a British friend that they got their confirmation after 2 month that the papers arrived and are complete. The process takes about 2 years at the time, so lots of waiting ahead of us.<br />

Das Laufband wird nun regelmaessig benutzt, allerdings machten mir beim ersten Anlauf nach 8 Tagen am Stueck die Knie zu schaffen (zu schnell und zu steil gelaufen) - Familienerbe :(. Nach 2 Tagen Pause gings dann weiter. Ich hab mich dank Ann Ende Januar online bei <a href="http://tribesports.com/" target="_blank">Tribesports</a> angemeldet und nehme an der Herausforderung 30 Tage je 30 Min teil. Quasi macht man 30 Tage lang am Stuek je 30 Min Sport. Beim ersten Anlauf hab ich auch die Kinectsportarten mit eingerechnet, jetzt zaehle ich aber nur das Gehen. Waehrend ich gehe schaue ich mir bei Netflix die alten Folgen von "Mord ist ihr Hobby" an. So vergeht die Zeit im Fluge, bei 12 Staffeln habe ich noch viel unterhaltsame km vor mir.<br />
The treadmill is being used on a regular basis now, sadly I had knee issues after the first 8 days and started over again after 2 days rest. It's a family problem and I had set the speed and incline to high for the beginning. Thanks to Ann I signed up to <a href="http://tribesports.com/" target="_blank">Tribesports</a> online and I'm currently working on the challenge 30 Mins for 30 days. Meaning 30 min of workout for 30 consecutive days. The first round I also counted the Kinect sport, but now only the walking. Time passes by past because I started watching all the old "Murder She Wrote" on Netflix while walking. There are 12 seasons, I see plenty of walking in the future ;).<br />
<br />
Was ich seit meinem Post von Ende Januar sonst noch alles in Angriff genommen habe, schreibe ich ein anderes Mal. Ich "genisse" jetzt erstmal unseren neuesten Schneesturm.<br />
What other changes I implemented since the last post will topic of a different post. For now I will "enjoy" our newest snowstorm.<br />

I don't know about you, but the sunny (yet very cold) weather we had lately really gets me in the mood to change things in this household of ours (Spring fever anyone?). Some just affect me, for others the family has to pull together. It's been over 5 years now, that we moved from Germany to Canada and a lot has happened since. For most parts we've been really blessed and our life here is coming together as hoped in one way or the other. We applied for our Canadian Citizenship this month and if all goes well hopefully get it in about 2 years!<br />
Normally I should be able to pinpoint where all this wish for change is coming from, but I can't say it was just one thing. For a person not believing in New Years resolutions I'm sure putting a lot on my plate this month ;).<br />
<i><b>Food:</b></i> I got the proverbial kick in the butt watching a couple of documentaries about food on Netflix recently. (<a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Food-Inc-alimenteurs-Bilingual-Edition/dp/B002PCHG7G/ref=sr_1_1?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1359489745&sr=1-1" target="_blank">Food Inc.</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Hungry-for-Change/dp/B008MIYKR6/ref=sr_1_1?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1359489715&sr=1-1" target="_blank">Hungry for Change</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Farmageddon/dp/B00744WZ8U/ref=sr_1_1?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1359489662&sr=1-1" target="_blank">Farmageddon</a>) Being a family of 5 living on a much lower income then what we are used to a couple of years back, I tend to buy our food staples in big box stores by watching for sales on basics, meat, dairy and all the other goodies one tends to think we should buy for ourselves and the rest of the clan. After watching those (mostly US related) films I had the urging need to watch closer what I put in my shopping cart, like I used to at one point earlier in our family life. Aside from these unpronounceable ingredients that are made by an industry that cares more about my buck then my health, there were some scenes that really grossed me out. I.e. cattle that gets only corn as feed, stands knee deep in their own manure (risk of causing E.coli among other sicknesses) on so
called pastures that reach father then the eye can see - not something
I want on my plate! Trying to live the "waste not, want not" attitude more as well, what's in the house will get used, but new purchases will be monitored closer. Did you know an American family throws an average of $600 worth of food in the garbage a year (don't see us there, but we could be doing better)? I can buy local grass feed beef and chicken in my area year around and really should do so! As long as there is no law to label <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_food" target="_blank">GMO</a> ingredients I rather get my food locally as much as I can. Yes, it will most likely cost more, money that has to be cut elsewhere (not throwing food out, bake and cook even more from scratch as I already do, try new to us recipes with food that is in season would be steps in that direction). The long term health costs resulting from my current choice of cooking could be more then we bargain for if I don't get us to change. "You are what you eat" - well, I know for sure I don't want to be garbage! I found a couple of blogs that a related to a lifestyle that I hope to adapt, that actually give me the hope that it can be done on a budget (<a href="http://realfoodrealfrugal.com/" target="_blank">Real Food-Real Frugal</a>, <a href="http://frugallysustainable.com/" target="_blank">Frugally Sustainable</a> and <a href="http://www.backyardfarmingconnection.com/" target="_blank">The Backyard Farm Connection</a> are some of them) . The dream of living sustainable, maybe even on a small homestead, is nothing new to Mr. H. and me....Homesteading can be done in urban areas too, not just in the middle of nowhere, which would be far from practical regarding work for us now. And in "old" age I don't want to make a day trip just to see a doctor either.<br />
<i><b>General</b></i><b>:</b> decluttering (household, computer, life), renovating and rearranging is my usual "Spring thing"- that I already started gives me hope. I've been having this "brain fog" and lack of motivation for too long now! I hope with living healthier that this will be gone for good, wish me luck. <br />
<i><b>Fitness:</b></i> as Mr. H. so rightfully predicted our treadmill downstairs gets barely used. So exercise is another topic that must move further up in my (our) list of priorities. If I drop some weight along with getting rid of all these bad habits it will be appreciated, but I don't count on it.<br />
To avoid the whole process from being too overwhelming I will take it one step at a time, this is the only life in the only body I've been given. After nearly 45 years it's time to appreciate it to the fullest! <br />
My regret is that I haven't started this journey sooner, so that my beautiful daughter could do it alongside the rest of us. The challenge is to stick with the plan and make the guys enjoy it too! Mr. H. was all for it so far let's see how it holds up in reality.<br />
Let me know if you have any great tips for me please, my learning curve has just started!<br />

Herzlich Willkommen Torsten und Kristina! <br />
<br />
...leider werden die nach einer Weile lesen und festhalten schwer. Nicht gut fuer meine chronische Sehenscheidentzuendung, wie ich nach 3 dickeren Waelzern in Folge feststellen musste :(. Unser Luetter hatte sich zu Weihnachten einen E-Reader gewuenscht und auch bekommen. Ich durfte testen, ob ich mit Technik und Gewicht klarkomme. Feine Sache und da ich noch Weihnachtsgeld zur Verfuegung hatte, bin ich nun im Besitz eines Geraetes von Sony. Halten muss man den E-Reader beim Schmoekern im Bett auch, vor einiger Zeit bin ich bei Pinterest fuendig geworden, wie man dies umgehen kann. Stoffreste, Fuellmaterial und Naehmaschine waren fix zusammengesucht und ruckzuck hatte unsere Tochter zwei schoene Halter gefertigt. Meiner ist so gross, dass ich sogar Buecher abstellen und eine Mini-Leselampe nutzen kann.<br />
Mit ganz leichten Abwandlungen hat sie <a href="http://www.ricochetandaway.blogspot.ca/2012/12/mr.html" target="_blank">dieses Tutorial</a> genutzt. Danke nochmal! <!--3--><br />
<br />
...after reading for a while these tend to get to heavy for me to hold upright. Not very good in terms of my chronic carpal tunnel syndrome. I found this out the hard way after reading three bigger books in a row :(. Our youngest asked for an E-reader for Christmas and we happily got him one. I was able to test if I could handle technology and weight. I could and since I still had some Christmas money left over I now own one from Sony. One still has to hold the E-reader while reading in bed, but I found a solution on Pinterest even before owning one. Fabric, filling and sewing machine got gathered quickly and in no time our daughter had stitched together two pretty holders. Mine is big enough to hold books and use a mini light as well.<br />
With small alterations she used <a href="http://www.ricochetandaway.blogspot.ca/2012/12/mr.html" target="_blank">this tutorial</a>. Thanks again! <!--3--><br />

Simple WhiteNeues Jahr, neuer Anlauf? Schon lange habt Ihr keinen neuen Post von mir zu sehen bekommen. Brigitte von <a href="http://brigittes-diary.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Brigitte's Diary</a> hat mich angestubst, doch bei der Aktion "<a href="http://was-eigenes.blogspot.de/2013/01/simple-white-color-me-happy.html" target="_blank">Color Me Happy</a>" mitzumachen.<br />
Vorsaetze mache ich schon lange keine mehr am Jahresanfang, da ja meist doch nichts davon wird.<br />
Nach einem ruhigen und besinnlichen Weihnachtsfest gehen wir das neue Jahr ebenso an. Ich hab noch ein paar Tage frei, in denen ich mich um den Antrag auf canadische Staatsbuergerschaft kuemmern werde.<br />
Das Foto, welches ich mit Euch teile, entand beim letzten Schneesturm am vergangenen Wochenende. Es zeigt unser Haus in den Abendstunden, umgeben von Schnee.<br />

Fluegge gewordende Sproesslinge ergeben ganz andere Moeglichkeiten der Raumaufteilung. Sollte sich noch einer absetzen, ist dieses Haus definitiv zu gross! Hier also 7 Sachen, fuer die ich heute meine Haende gebraucht habe- mehr Info gibt es bei <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe</a>, welche die geniale Idee hatte!<br />
<br />
While Mr. H. <strike>gave into my nagging</strike> followed my wish and diligently painted the spare room, I busied myself with other things then just lolling on the sofa with him. Offspring's moving out result in new possibilities in utilizing rooms. If another one off them is relocating this house will be way to big. Here are 7 things for which I used my hands today - more info over at <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe's</a> blog, she had the genius idea!<br />

Tag - Day 1Wie versprochen mehr Details zu unserer Reise nach British Columbia. Das Mr. H. die Reise bei einem Internet-Preisausschreiben des Tourismusverbandes dieser Provinz gewonnen hat, hatte ich bereits ja schon angedeutet (er ist halt DER BESTE). Nachdem wir 5 nach einigen Schiebereien eine Termin gefunden hatten, an dem alle frei bekommen konnten, ging die Planerei los. Dank Internet (und unserer wundervollen organisierten Tochter) waren schnell ein paar Ideen zusammengesucht, was man als Familie dort denn so in einer Woche anstellen koennte. Unsere Betreuungsperson am anderen Ende hatte ganz schoen zu planen und hat es geschafft, annaehernd alle Vorschlaege unter zu bringen. Lieb gemeint, aber das waere zu stressig geworden.<br />
Ende Juni ging es zum wahrscheinlich letzten Familienurlaub in dieser Konstellation los. Da wir im Osten von Canada leben und B.C. im Westen ist, mussten wir von Saint John bis Vancouver ueber 5000 km mit dem Flugzeug zuruecklegen, mit Umstieg in Toronto dauert das mindestens so lange wie ein Flug nach Europa. In Vancouver angekommen lieferte uns der Shuttle vom Flughafen erstmal an der Autovermietung ab. Einen schoenen grossen Van bekamen wir zur Verfuegung gestellt, viel Platz fuer 5 Erwachsene samt Gepaeck. Eine dicke Mappe mit vielen Wegekarten, Infos, Eintrittskarten, Essensgutscheinen etc. erhielten wir auch. Endlich ging es ab in Richtung Hotel, durch die Zeitverschiebung von 4 Stunden waren mit mittlerweile doch ziemlich geschlaucht und Abendessen wollten wir auch noch. Im ersten Hotel, <a href="http://www.sheratonvancouver.com/" target="_blank">Sheraton Wall Centre</a>, blieben wir dann gleich 3 Naechte. Die Kids hatten immer ein eigenes Zimmer, im Sheraton sogar mit Verbindungstuer (was sie wohl nicht so gut fanden ;o)) Das Restaurant <a href="http://www.glowbalgroup.com/glowbalgrill/" target="_blank">Glowbal Grill</a> befindet sich nicht weit vom Hotel, daher liessen wir den Wagen in der Parkgarage (wo er dann den Rest der Vancouver-Zeit auch blieb). Nachdem wir unser Gutschein "ver<strike>fressen</strike>braten" hatten (superlecker uebrigens), fielen wir ganz kurzem Spaziergang zurueck nur noch in die Betten.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">As promised more details about our trip to British Columbia. You might remember me mentioning that Mr. H. won that trip in a Tourism B.C. contest (he is THE ONE). Once figured out a week that all 5 of us could get off the planning began. Thanks to the web (and our organized daughter) we had a bunch of suggestions really soon. Our contact person on the other end did her best to fit all of those in. That was very sweet, but would have been really stressful.<br />
End of June we started to our most likely last trip in this constellation. Since we leave in the Eastern part of Canada and B.C. is on the West Coast, we had about 5000 km (3100 miles) to cover. With a stop in Toronto it took us about as long as a flight to Europe. Once arrived it Vancouver a shuttle brought us from the Airport to the car rental place where we got a nice big van with lots of room for 5 adults including luggage. We also received a huge binder with plenty of road maps, info's, tickets and restaurant gift cards. Finally we took off to our hotel, due to the time difference of 4 hours we were pretty exhausted and wanted to have dinner too. At our first hotel, the <a href="http://www.sheratonvancouver.com/" target="_blank">Sheraton Wall Centre</a>, we stayed for 3 night. The kids had their own room, but with a connecting door (which they didn't seem to like ;o)). The <a href="http://www.glowbalgroup.com/glowbalgrill/" target="_blank">Glowbal Grill</a> was within walking distance so we left the van in the garage (where it stayed the remaining Vancouver days). After we ate our way thru our gift card (awesome food btw), we literally slumped on our beds after the short stroll back.<br />

Teils in der Kueche, teils in anderen Bereichen. Ausser dem "Surfer-Look" (Braeune und aufgehellter Blondschopf) hat er jedes Wochenende einiges an Dreckwaesche nach Hause gebracht ;o). In der letzten Woche stand auch Kletterwald auf den Programm. Natur ist wunderschoen, Baumharz auf den hellen Shorts (Teil der Mitarbeiter"uniform") nicht so wirklich. Pinterest sei Dank, gibt es hier auch Loesungen. Am vielversprechendsten erschien mir <a href="http://www.howtocleanstuff.net/how-to-remove-tree-sap-from-clothing/" target="_blank">von dieses Tips das Handdesinfektions-Gel</a> (Erdnussbutter soll auch gehen, aber hey, ich hatte auch so schon genug Fettflecken in seinen Klamotten...,) Es hat dann noch gut eine Woche gedauert, bis ich mich an die Hosen rangetraut habe. Unsere Grosse hatte noch eine kleine Reisegroesse Desinfektionsmittel von ihrer letzten Reise- sonst benutzen wir hier nur Seife, das wir alle sehr hautempfindlich sind. Das Gel wird einfach nur in den Harzfleck eingerieben (dicke Stellen vorher evtl. vorsichtig abkratzen), danach kurz einwirken lassen und ab in die Wachmaschine.<br />
<br />
Our youngest son worked in a summer camp for most off the season as kitchen staff and in other areas. On top of the "surfer-look" (tan and lightened hair) he brought home dirty laundry every weekend ;o). During the last week their group went to a "tree-go", an aerial adventure course. Nature is beautiful, tree sap on light shorts (staff clothing) not so much. Thanks to Pinterest I found a solution, <a href="http://www.howtocleanstuff.net/how-to-remove-tree-sap-from-clothing/" target="_blank">one of these tips</a> seemed promising (peanut butter is supposed to work too, but he already had enough grease stains in his clothes). It took me about a week before I was brave enough to tackle the stains. Our daughter still had an untouched small hand sanitizing gel from a recent trip- normally we only use soap around here, because everyone has sensitive skin. Simply rub the gel in the stain (you might want to carefully scratch off thicker blobs), let it sit for a little and throw it in with your regular laundry.<br />

Mitgelesen habe ich diesen beschaeftigten Sommer bei Euren Blogs weiterhin. Was habe ich also dies ganze Zeit so gemacht? Mmmhhh, mal sehen, hier waeren ein Dinge fuer den Anfang: <br />
7 tolle Tage haben wir in British Columbia verbracht, eine Reise fuer uns alle, die Mr. H. gewonnen hat. Mehr dazu spaeter...Eine meiner beste Freundinnen aus Deutschland war fast 3 Wochen zu Besuch. Auf der Arbeit ist auch viel los, was prima ist, so wird es nicht langweilig, aber ich bin Abends oft "erschossen" und meine Gedanken waren viel woanders.<br />
<br />
After a long absence finally a new post. I followed your blogs during this busy summer. What I did during this time? Well, lets see, here are a few things :<br />
7 awesome days we spend in B.C., a wonderful trip for all of us that Mr. H. won (more in another post). One of me best girlfriends from Germany visited for almost 3 weeks. Work is still busy, which is great, because it doesn't get boring. But in the evenings I'm tired and my thoughts are all over the place.<br />

Canada Day (1. July) ist fuer uns, was der 4. July fuer den grossen Bruder auf der anderen Seite der Grenze ist. Dieses Jahr wird der 145. Geburtstag dieser tollen Nation gefeiert! Natuerlich wird in unseren Farben, rot und weiss, dekoriert bis der Arzt kommt. Viele Laeden haben extra Angebote von Klamotten, ueber Fleisch & Co fuers BBQ bis hin zum Auto (mein fuer mich neues ist nicht rot, Stilbruch?).<br />
<br />
Wir sind Sonntag in Vancouver, <a href="http://www.hellobc.com/british-columbia/about-bc.aspx?gclid=COyqscii87ACFWQDQAod8WnKEA" target="_blank">British Columbia</a> und werden uns Abends zusammen das Feuerwerk vom <a href="http://www.canadaday.canadaplace.ca/" target="_blank">Canada Place</a> aus ansehen. Wie gross unsere <strike>nicht mehr so</strike> neue Heimat ist, wird deutlich im Zeitunterschied von New Brunswick zum Westen. Ganze 4 Stunden hinkt B.C. hinterher (Deutschland ist 5 Stunden vorraus in unserer Zeitzone). Der Flug dauert genau so lange als wenn wir Euch besuchen kaemen!<br />
<br />
Eine Nationalhymne haben wir auch, welche je nach gusto in Englisch oder Franzoesisch getraellert wird:<br />
<blockquote style="color: red;"><b>O Canada!</b><br />
<b>Our home and native land!</b><br />
<b>True patriot love in all thy sons command.</b><br />
<b>With glowing hearts we see thee rise,</b><br />
<b>The True North strong and free!</b><br />
<b>From far and wide,</b><br />
<b>O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.</b><br />
<b>God keep our land glorious and free!</b><br />
<b>O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.</b><br />
<b>O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.</b></blockquote><br />

<br />
Canada Day (July 1st) is for us what the 4th of July is for our big brother across the border. This year we celebrate the 145. Birthday of this great nation! There will be an abundance of decorations in our national colors, red and white. Most stores have special deals from clothing, to meat for the big BBQ all the way to cars (my new <strike>to me</strike> one is not red ;o)).<br />
<br />
On Sunday we will be in Vancouver, <a href="http://www.hellobc.com/british-columbia/about-bc.aspx?gclid=COyqscii87ACFWQDQAod8WnKEA" target="_blank">British Columbia</a> and watch the fireworks from <a href="http://www.canadaday.canadaplace.ca/" target="_blank">Canada Place</a> later in the evening. How big our home country really is one notices in the time change going there, B.C. is four hours behind New Brunswick (Germany is 5 hours ahead). The flight will take us about the same time then visiting family and friends back in Germany!<br />
<br />
Canada's National Anthem will be song in English or French, depending on the preference. (for text and video see above).<br />
<br />
Habt ein wundervolles Wochenende! Happy (long) weekend everyone!<br />

Haette nie gedacht, dass ausser Freunden und Familie in Deutschland noch andere lesen moechten, was ich so fuer einen Unsinn verzapfe ;o).<br />
<br />
Zum Sommer, welchen wir ja laut Kalender schon beinahe eine Woche haben: so schlimm isses ja nicht mit unseren Dauerschauern, nach den paar heissen Tagen konnte die Erde den Regen dringend gebrauchen. Um so mehr freu ich mich, wenn das Thermometer sich wieder zwischen 20 und 25 Grad einpendelt und wir abends nach der Arbeit draussen auf dem Deck sitzen koennen. Mein Sonntag angefangenes Projekt fuers Schlafzimmer wartet noch auf Vollendung, dann gibts ein Foto, versprochen. Bis dahin noch ein paar Bilder aus unserem Garten.<br />
Wir werden ab Samstag eine Woche in British Columbia (an Kanada's Westkueste) verbringen und ich hoffe, Euch eine Menge tolle Fotos mitbringen zu koennen - wenn ich beim Bibbern vor lauter Hoehenangst die Kamera ruhig halten kann. Wir sind ja hier schon nicht gerade im Flachland, aber fuer mich als ehemaliges Nordlicht sind die Berge da schon ziemlich hoch!<br />
<br />

Summer - according to the calendar the season that's on for about a week now. We've had quite some rain showers in the past couple of days, but the ground really needed it after a short lived heat spell. I'll be happy when the temperatures are in the 70's again, I enjoy sitting outside on the deck in the evenings after work.<br />
The project for our bedroom which I started on Sunday isn't finished yet, but I'll take a picture once it's done.<br />
Until then some pictures from our garden.<br />
From Saturday on we'll spend a week in British Columbia (on Canada's west coast) and I hope to bring back lots of beautiful pictures - if I can keep the camera calm enough while I shake with fear (of heights). It's not flat here either, but for me - coming from the "Northern German flatland's" the mountains there are mighty high!<br />
<br />
Habt noch eine schoene Restwoche! Have a great rest of the week!<br />

Zwischen Lese- und Computerpausen auf dem Sofa kamen meine Haende trotzdem zum Einsatz, daher auch heute wieder 7 Sachen, welche ich mit selbigen gemacht habe. Frei nach <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe</a>.<br />
<br />
Despite crappy weather outside I wasn't highly motivated to do house cleaning or other fancy indoor actions. Inbetween computer and reading breaks my hands did come to use, so once more 7 things that I used them for. Based on <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe</a>'s idea.<br />

Thanks for following, enjoy your time here!<br />
<br />
Es gibt mit Sicherheit eine Sorte Lebewesen, welche sich ueber den "schlechten, da zu warmen" Winter und ein ziemlich verregnetes Fruehjahr gefreut hat: Muecken, die der stechenden Sorte - Blutsauger - Schnaken - Moskitos. Die hier gar nicht so kleinen Biester treten gerade in den Abendstunden und in Feuchtgebieten in groesseren Gruppen auf. Unser Juengster arbeitet diesen Sommer ueber in einem Jugendcamp und sah nach den ersten paar Tagen (Mitarbeitertraining) total "durchloechert" aus. Man kann diverse Abwehrmittelchen im Laden kaufen und sie sich anschliessend auf Haut und Kleidung spruehen. Er hat aber bei 2 verschiedenen Sorten mit Juckreiz reagierte und lange Kleidung ist bei Hitze waehrend der Arbeit nicht der Renner, daher musste eine andere Loesung her. (Mal abgesehen von den ganzen Chemiekeulen in dem Kram und dem mehr als penetranten Geruch). Pinterest sei dank habe ich schnell eine hoffentlich wirksame Alternative gefunden. Aus den Rezepten <a href="http://helpmeorillkickyou.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/easiest-homemade-mosquito-repellent/" target="_blank">hier</a>, <a href="http://myfloatingfeathers.blogspot.ca/2011/03/effective-natural-bug-spray-recipe.html#more" target="_blank">hier</a> und <a href="http://www.icanteachmychild.com/2011/06/make-it-natural-mosquito-spray/" target="_blank">hier</a> habe ich eine Kombi gemacht:<br />
<br />
Man braucht:<br />
1 kleine Spruehflasche ( 100ml) - die luetten fuers Flugzeug sind genau richtig<br />
je 10 Tropfen Teebaumoel und Lavendeloel<br />
30 Tropfen Citronellaoel<br />
Hamamelisextrakt (Zaubernuss), alternativ sollen auch Mandeloel oder Franzbranntwein gehen (ein Rezept schlaegt sogar Wodka vor ;o))<br />
Die Oele in die Spruehflasche geben, mit Hamamelis / Oel auffuellen und gut schuetteln. Das fertige Produkt ist leicht milchig und riecht angenehm. Es laesst sich leicht auftragen und zieht schnell ein. Er reagiert auch nicht allergisch, yeah!<br />
<br />
Wie effektiv es gewirkt hat werde ich berichten, sobald wir den Junior Sonntag wieder im Camp abgesetzt haben und er ein paar Naechte hinter sich hat. Ich bin aber guter Dinge, wenn ich mir die Kommentare auf den 3 Seiten durchlese. Das Teebaumoel soll gegen die Zecken abschrecken - ich kenne unseren Luetten, der checkt mit Sicherheit nicht jeden Abend, ob er kleine Anhaengsel hat!<br />
Wir sind die erste Juliwoche als Familie viel unterwegs, oft in Wassernaehe, dann koennen auch die anderen als Testobjekte ran. Des weiteren bin ich gespannt, ob sich auch die Kriebelmuecken (black flies) abschrecken lassen, auf deren Bisse reagiere ich besonders heftig.<br />
Die aetherischen Oele sind nicht guenstig, aber ich habe 3 Flaeschchen gemixt und es ist nur wenig gebraucht worden, dass sollte uber den Sommer hinaus reichen und die Chemikeulen sind weder haut -noch umweltfreundlich und auf Dauer auch teuer, selbst die Hausmarken.<br />
<br />

<br />
Welcome Margo! Thanks for following, enjoy your time here!<br />
<br />
There is one kind of living creature that must have been really, really happy about the mild winter and the rainy spring - mosquitoes. These little bloodsucking vampires have a tendency to live in the wet areas around our woods (which we have a LOT of in Canada). Our youngest son is working as a junior counselor in a camp this summer and during staff training the past couple of days they got a good taste of him - literally - his legs where full of bites. I bought Off! last summer and he reacted to it so this year I tried the brand from our local drug mart - same reaction. There is a long list of chemical ingredients in both and the smell is just beyond stinky....Thanks to Pinterest I think I found a solution to our problem. I made a combination of the recipes <a href="http://myfloatingfeathers.blogspot.ca/2011/03/effective-natural-bug-spray-recipe.html#more" target="_blank">here</a>, <a href="http://www.icanteachmychild.com/2011/06/make-it-natural-mosquito-spray/" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://helpmeorillkickyou.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/easiest-homemade-mosquito-repellent/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />
<br />
You need:<br />
1 small spray bottle (travel size: 100ml / ~ 3.4 oz)<br />
10 drops of each lavender oil and tee tree oil<br />
30 drops of citronella oil<br />
witch hazel (or almond oil or rubbing alcohol - one recipe even suggests vodka ;o))<br />
Put the oils in the bottle and fill up with the witch hazel, shake well. The finished product looks slightly cloudy and smells good. It applies easy and doesn't stay on top of your skin. He is not reacting to it, yeah!<br />
<br />
We will find out how effective it is once we dropped the junior off in camp again Sunday and he's been there a couple of nights. I have high hopes after reading the comments under the 3 recipes. The tea tree oil is supposed to be effective against ticks - I know our youngest, he'll forget to check every night if he has little "attachments"!<br />
The first week in July all of us will be outdoors a lot close to water, more willing test objects. I'm also curious how effective the mix will be to keep the black flies away because I react really bad to their bites.<br />
<br />
The eo's are not cheap, but I mixed 3 bottles and hardly used any oil, most likely we should have enough beyond the summer - the store bought chemical mixes are not cheap in the long run either and the not friendly to our skin or the environment.<br />
<br />
Ich wuensche Euch ein tolles Wochenende! Have a happy weekend!<br />
<br />

Wer uns schon laenger kennt, weiss, dass wir nach dem Umzug von Ontario nach New Brunswick vor 4 Jahren dringend ein "Ersatzhaus" brauchten, weil das urspruengliche Kaufobjekt nach Inspektion durch Profi mit Asbest und zu alten Stromleitungen durchfiel. Es musste auf die Schnelle Erzatz her - von allen besichtigten Objekten war das derzeitige Heim der beste Kompromiss. Es hat allerdings Nachteile: die Wohnflaeche verteilt sich auf 4 Halbebenen (hoehere Heizkosten als 2 volle) und das Grundstueck ist sehr hanglagig. Besonders im Sommer ist es auffaellig, wenn mit der Motorsense dem Unkraut am ollen Hang zu Leibe gerueckt werden muss und wir erneut merken, dass bei knapp 2000qm Grundstueck noch nicht mal die Haelfte genutzt werden kann. Die bevoelkernde Personenzahl verringert sich in absehbarer Zeit von 5 auf 3. Schlussfolgerung - wir suchen nach was anderem.<br />
Damit Mr. H. nicht unbedingt sofort den Arbeitgeber wechseln muss kommt eigentlich nur der Umkreis von St. John oder Fredericton in Frage. Der "Luette" hat noch 2 Jahre bis zum Beginn des Studiums / Berufsausbildung, also muss auch eine gescheite High School in der Naehe sein. Fredericton ist verlockender, da St. John nicht gerade eine ueberwiegend "huebsche" Stadt ist und der Luette mit seinem Asthma nicht den Auswurf von Raffinerie und Papierfabrik einatmen sollte. Nach wochenlangem frustierendem Durchforsten von Realtor.ca , einer kanadaweiten Webseite mit Haeusern, welche sich derzeit ueber Makler gelistet auf dem Markt befinden, reicht es mir fuer diese Saison weitgehend. Da hier zum Sommer hin ein regelrechtes "Haeuser -wechsel-dich" einsetzt sollte ja wohl ein Haus fuer uns dabei sein......Hmmmmm, noeeeeeee! Nichts, wo wir beide sagen wuerden, "dass isses". Irgendwas war immer nicht richtig....Und den ganzen Stress eines Umzugs (waere der 4. in 5 Jahren), nur um wieder in einem Kompromiss zu enden, mal abgesehen davon, dass ich dann auch einen neuen Job braeuchte? Nix da! Wir suchen nach einem Zuhause, nicht nach einem Haus!<br />
Nun denkt Ihr bestimmt, huch, was haben die denn fuer Ansprueche? Wir wollen wieder "aufs Land" zurueck (oder zumindest kleinere Stadt), 1-2 Ebenen, wenn wenig Wohnflaeche dann bitte einen Keller. Garage / Stall fuer mind. ein Auto, damit auch im Winter mal Reparaturen am Fuhrpark ausgefuehrt werden koennen. Wir sind bereit wie ueblich selbst zu renovieren, aber eine Bruchbude sollte es dennoch nicht sein. Und das Heim soll Charakter haben, nicht aussehen wie 50 andere in der Nachbarschaft (welche bitte auch sein sollte wie bei Flodderers oder Trumps). Wir haben uns sogar einige Haueser persoenlich angeschaut. Fazit: es soll im Moment wohl nicht sein, wenn der richtige Augenblick gekommen ist, kommt auch das "richtige" Haus. Daran glaube ich fest!<br />
Es ist nicht so, dass wir keine Haueser finden, die uns gefallen wuerden, nur stehen die in St. Andrews oder St. Stephen (dort sind gute Job rar gesaet). Keine schlechte Gegend, nur im Moment nicht passend. Mehr als einmal haben wir beide gedacht, dass koennte es werden, wenn es nicht in der falschen Ecke stehen wuerde.<br />
Was meint Ihr? Wuerdet Ihr in einen Kompromiss umziehen oder lieber wie wir nochmal 2 Jahre warten und dann auch mehr Auswahl an Gegenden haben? Interessant ist uebrigens, das ich unser Zuhause gar nicht mehr "so schlimm" finde (isses ja auch nicht) seitdem ich nix "besseres" finde.<br />

Every once in a while Mr. and Mr. H. get on a roll and want to move out of their current home. If you knows us a bit longer, you might remember that we needed a "replacement house" really fast, because the one we put an offer in fell thru after the home-inspection (asbestos around the ducts and knob and tube wiring). Out of all the objects we looked at, this one was the best compromise. It has it's downside, 4 level split (which makes heating more expensive) and the property has a pretty big drop, especially in the back yard. In the summer Mr. H. has to get the big whipper snipper to tackle the weeds and out of our 1/2 acre property we can't even use half. The population will downsize from 5 to 3 relatively soon, so the conclusion was to look for a different home.<br />
Because we wouldn't want Mr. H. to change his employer soon, the only options are the areas around Saint John and Fredericton. Since the "little one" still has two years of High School left, we would have to find a good one too. Saint John isn't really a pretty city for most part and his asthma doesn't go well with the fumes form the refinery or the pulp mill. After weeks of really frustrating searches on MLS, I'm pretty much done for the season. After all the houses that came on the market, we hoped to find one home for us....hmmm - nope! And just taking on the stress of moving in order not to have "the right" house just doesn't appeal to us (it would be the 4th move in 5 years). And I would have to find a new job on top of that.<br />
Are you thinking by now: wow, I wonder what kind of expectations they have. Well, we want to move back "country" (or a smaller city), have at least a one-car garage /barn, 1-2 level living, maybe a basement if the square footage is small. And neither the Trumps nor the bad version of the trailer park people as neighbors. Cookie cutter is not on the wishlist either, rather a home with character.<br />
It's not like we don't find any houses, the problem is they are not in the current desired area. St. Andrews and St. Stephen's aren't bad, just not right for now (and good jobs are rare). More then once we found a house that could have been the right one, if it would be in a different place. <br />
What do you think? Would you move in a compromise or rather wait another 2 years, when more options for the areas become open? Interesting thing is, that since we don't find anything "better", I don't find our home "so bad" (which it isn't) after all.<br />
Habt eine wundervolle Woche - have a wonderful week!<br />

Trotz nur 3 Posts im Mai, wurde es im Hause H. nicht langweilig. Unsere Tochter hat ihren Bachelor an der Uni bekommen, das Schlafzimmer ist fast fertig (fehlt nur noch etwas Kunst ueberm Bett oder ein DIY Kopfteil), der Flohmarkt hat maechtig Platz geschaffen, die Kolibris sind aus dem Winterquartier zurueck und die Temperaturen sind endlich ueberwiegend im zweistelligen Bereich! Wir haben wieder angefangen im Garten zu werkeln und einige tolle warme Tage haben es uns ermoeglicht, auf dem Deck zu sitzen - herrlich!<br />
<br />
Despite only 3 post in May it was far from being boring at the H. residence. Our daughter got her bachelor degree at the University, the master bedroom is almost done (only missing some art above our bed or a DIY headboard), the yard sale brought lots of room, the Hummingbirds are back from their Winter homes and the temps finally got warmer! We also started working in the yard and a couple of really nice warm days made it possible to sit on the deck - wonderful!<br />

Ich wuensche Dir viel Vergnuegen beim Lesen!<br />
<br />
Es sind tatsaechlich nur 3 Posts geworden letzten Monat. Im Juni versuche ich mehr zu bloggen- versprochen! War wohl zuviel los und die Motivation fehlte auch zum Teil. Aber weil es soviel Spass macht, bin ich auch diesen Sonntag bei "<a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe</a>" mit dabei um zu zeigen, was ich mit meinen Haenden gemacht habe.<br />
<br />
It never got more then 3 posts last month. I will try to do better in June- pinky promise! To much going on and also the lack of motivation on my part. But because it's so much fun, I'm picking up "<a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe's</a>" idea again and show what I did with my hands.<br />

Post diesen Monat - ich hoffe das es man nicht noch weniger werden! Ist bei dem herrlichen Wetter aber auch zu verlockend, was im Garten zu machen oder einfach nur so draussen zu sein. Gestern hatten wir ausserdem noch einen grossen Yard Sale (Flohmarkt) bei uns in der Einfahrt, da war vorher so einiges zu tun. <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebes Aktion</a> moechte ich aber heute nicht schon wieder verpassen und die Kamera war von frueh an griffbereit ;o). Habe mir nun auch endlich eine neue eigene zugelegt- die Hoffnung, dass die alte auftaucht habe ich aufgegeben.<br />
<br />
Only my third post this month - hopefully it doesn't get any lower then this! It's very tempting to garden in this beautiful weather or just stay outside. Yesterday we had a huge yard sale, which also meant a LOT of prep work. I didn't want to miss <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebes initiative</a> again, so the camera was with me from early on. I finally bought myself a new one- I gave up hope, that the other one will reappear.<br />

Mein Tag hat frueh angefangen, trotzdem dauerte es eine ganze Weile, wie die 7 Sachen fuer <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe's Idee</a> zusammen waren. Nicht sehr spannend, aufgrund des Wetters war es eher ein Tag zum Drinnen bleiben.<br />
<br />
Happy Easter to all! My day started early, it still took me a while to get my 7 things for <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe's idea </a>together. Not very exciting, due to the weather it's been more a inside day.<br />

Ab und an kriegen wir mal den Rappel, dann wird ausgemistet und umgerauemt <strike>wie bloede</strike>. Jeden Mai ist in Quispamsis "Town Wide Yard Sale", sowas wie ein Riesenflohmarkt, halt bei Dir Zuhause auf dem Rasen (yard), in der Einfahrt oder Garage. Mit mindestens einem <strike>Kind</strike> Erwachsenen, welcher im Sommer auszieht und nicht alles mitnehmen kann/will, faellt da so einiges an. Entruempeln befreit richtig und bringt nebenbei noch etwas fuer den Geldbeutel - was nicht verkauft wird geht an <a href="http://www.habitat.ca/" target="_blank">Habitat</a> oder <a href="http://valuevillage.ca/" target="_blank">Value Village</a>. Mr. H. und ich wollen uns verkleinern, was wohl aber noch 2 Jahre dauern wird. Aber frueher Vogel hat spaeter nicht so viel Arbeit ;o). Und zwischendurch arbeite ich immer mal im Schlafzimmer weiter.<br />
<br />
My 7 things for which I used my hands today, after an idea from <a href="http://frauliebe.typepad.com/frauliebe/7-sachen/" target="_blank">Frau Liebe</a>. Every once in a while it gets into us and we start de-cluttering <strike>like crazy</strike>. Every May the is a town-wide yard sale in Quispamsis. With at least one <strike>kid</strike> adult moving out in the summer and not being able / wanting to take everything, that can easily add up. The extra advantage is a little spending money, what doesn't get sold will end up at <a href="http://www.habitat.ca/" target="_blank">Habitat</a> or <a href="http://valuevillage.ca/" target="_blank">Value Village</a>. Mr. H. and I want to downsize, which most likely will take another 2 years. But the early bird has less work later ;o). And in-between I continue working on the master bedroom.<br />
