Thank you all so much for your kind words and wishes!

A new year, a new chapter in life, and retirement... there was plenty to celebrate. They say, “Life begins at 66”—we’ll see... (laughs).

Warm regards
Marlies

All the best from me, too!

Dear Marlies

This is such a special birthday 😊 Warmest congratulations on this special birthday 🥂 I wish you lots of joy, happiness, and good health for this new chapter in your life! Do as Udo Jürgens would and really get things going 😁🥳💃

With love, Sonja

Dear Marlies,

I’d also like to congratulate you on your 66th birthday. Yes, that’s when life really begins. As you know, as retirees, we never have any time. After all, we have important things to do—namely, crafts.

I wish you a never-ending supply of yarn, great ideas and patterns, and a big dose of joy and good health.



Warm regards from Monika

A heartfelt thank you to all of you, too.

Unfortunately, I can’t do any crafting right now because I’ve had two falls on black ice. The first time, I swerved to avoid a skidding cyclist and slipped. I hit my left shoulder and upper arm, and now it’s dragging on. The second time, it hadn’t been salted in front of one (!) house on the street. I was just thinking, “Oh, that’s sli...,” when I was already on the ground.
Oh well, you can’t keep me down. Now I’m enjoying the peace and quiet in the Altes Land.

Warm regards
Marlies

Oh, what a bummer!
Along with my warm birthday
wishes, I’m sending you lots of good wishes for a speedy recovery.

Best regards
Karola

Oh dear, I’m sending you my best wishes for a quick recovery too 🍀🍀🍀

Warm regards, Sonja 

Happy birthday!
But above all, I hope you get well soon 🍀

Thank you so much for your birthday and get-well wishes!

The projects I’ve started are already giving me those reproachful looks...

Warm regards
Marlies

Dear Marlies, first of all, I hope you heal quickly so you can get back to work feeling like new, so to speak. In the meantime, let yourself be pampered—you might just deserve it.

Warm regards from Monika

Thanks, Monika!
There isn’t much pampering going on here, because he still doesn’t have his new teeth. It’s been like this for half a year now. It’s really annoying with all the endless waiting, because the health insurance has to approve everything over and over again. I’m slowly running out of soup ideas...

Best regards,
Marlies
