Danny meets old friends
Danny traveled again this time to Germany
visiting old friends.
He met Petzi, a senior teddy,
He couldn’t hold back his excitement and jumped right up to say hello.
Then they chatted for a long time.
In town he saw water, a plastic cow,
blue sky and beautiful snowdrops.
Danny found his favourite:
a ” Schwäbische Brezel”
Danny met also his other friend “Breuni” in Germany.
They enjoyed a good chat and cuddle next to Spring flowers.
After a week of sunshine he said good bye to Germany in rain
which gave us a beautiful picture of this snowdrop.
Wishing you all a wonderful and
love filled week !

Weekly Inspiration No 7 – Do less
We are always so busy in our lives,
with chores, and general life.
Often we forget to look after ourselves.
Forget the mobile phone, and social media
switch off for a while.
meditate,
read a book,
have a bath,
visit a friend,
write a letter,
have a rest,
do nothing.
Much love
from me!

Glimpse of Spring
Have a glimpse of Spring
in my house.
Spring come soon,
let the birds chirp,
let the bees buzz,
let leaves grow on trees,
let the grass turn green,
let flowers bloom,
and let the days get brighter and warmer.

Wheatbag for Warmth – DIY
For a simple heat source,
a Wheatbag is the best idea.
I have two and cannot live without them.
They heat up within minutes in the microwave and give warmth for a long time.
They do not get cold like hot water bottles but keep the warmth of the body.
I love to heat up the bed with them in Winter.
And here is how I made them:
Use some leftover material you like and sew up a small square
like a pillowcase.
( 20cm by 20cm or 8 inches by 8 inches).
Leave it open on one side.
Buy some Barley from the store
and fill the bag with about 1 kg Barley.
Once the Barley is in
sew the remaining side together,
and your bag is ready.
I also made some covers for mine, just like a pillowcase,
so the bag itself stays clean.and
I can wash it from time to time.
When you need some warmth,
put the Wheatbag into the Microwave for 2 or 3 minutes
and enjoy the warmth coming from it
on your legs, on your feet, everywhere.
It can be used for aches and pains too, i.e. like stomach pains, etc
They are very versatile
and can be used cold too.
I have made some small ones (10 cm by 10 cm)
as they fit nicely into a bag into the freezer as ice packs for any injuries.
You can if you like put a bit of lavender inside too and it keeps smelling lovely too. I do like the smell of heated barley though.
Enjoy the warmth!

Weekly inspiration – No 5 – Daily Advice from the Heart – Dalai Lama
“To be kind, honest and have positive thoughts; to forgive those who harm us and treat everyone as a friend. To help those who are suffering and never consider ourselves superior to anyone else; even if this advice seems rather simplistic, make the effort of seeing whether be following it you can find greater happiness.”
