Guten morgen
Dobro jutro
Good mornng . . .
I see you all have been having great fun.
Perhaps I go to be too early
or rise too late!
I have two fireplaces,
but neither one works . . .
otherwise I should love to sit by a fire . . .
Ah, dear
Buba . . .
I should like to sit by your warm stove as well.
A good place to warm the feet
while indulging in one of your baked breads . . .
perhaps something with nuts?
Edda,

you make me tired already,
especially to think
of dragging those heavy ramps around!
Good for you, dear
Juliana!
Now I can picture you even better
doing your Nordic walking in the alps!
What lovely scenery . . .
Jude dear,
you must have much time on your hands
to be scouting away over google,
finding pictures for us all!
I do think that as you say,
the more active you are,
the younger you feel.
When I sit at my desk or table all day,
I am much more tired and less engergetic
than when I am physically active
for at least part of the day.
Yes dear
Betty,
this is a Friday that is really a Friday
and a weekend that is really a weekend--
finally!
I hope that your cold and/or flu
has finally left you,
and that you are finally feeling better.
Not to worry,
Marie . . .
you shall get the hang of it before long.
Beyond our various and different names
we are all birds of a feather . . .
I love the bright little shining eyes
and the crooked smile
on your Teddy,
dear
Isabella . . .
he looks ready for a cuddle.
no fau paux . . .
and last but not least,
My dear
Bright Spirit
. . .
you certainly have us all hopping.
If the exercise doesn't keep us young,
laughter
will!
A happy Friday to all of you birds
with love and laughter . . .
