Have a great weekend, everyone / International Women’s Day is this Sunday

Dear Community,
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend with plenty of time for crafts. Sunday is International Women’s Day. Does that mean anything to you?

I just set up a MINI POND ;)
The forecast for the weekend is wonderful
Sunny greetings

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
The weather is gorgeous—I was out with a friend yesterday, and today we’re heading out again: first for a nice meal, then to Oldie Night.
International Women’s Day doesn’t hold any personal significance for me; I grew up in a tolerant, modern, and emancipated environment, so I’m on the lucky side. I know that’s not the case everywhere, but can one day out of 365 really make a difference?
I’m also going to set up a mini pond on my balcony this year—I think that’s really nice.

I also wish everyone a relaxing weekend with plenty of sunshine (it’s supposed to be nice again), maybe on the balcony with your craft supplies, or in your gardens.
For me, Women’s Day is just a day like any other. Back in the old days, it used to be something different (an afternoon coffee party at work with cake and flowers).
Plus, I still need to shake off this cold. My doctor says it’s supposed to be a particularly aggressive flu this year.
It’s been about three weeks now, so a little sun on the balcony is doing me a world of good. It’s just this pollen—which might already be in the air—that’s making me more susceptible again.
Still, I’m going to relax a bit, do some crocheting, soak up the sun, and watch Ms. Magpie build her nest. Interesting.

I’d also like to wish everyone here a wonderful weekend.
International Women’s Day isn’t a special day for me either—I grew up much like Veronika, and I was taught from childhood that women have a voice too. With three brothers, that was actually necessary—you learn very early on how to stand your ground in a man’s world. :-)))))

Love, Inge
