Germs on the way

 Cassian and Flavius are mostly free of cough and head cold now. But: Their parents both have a cold now, I have one, too, and hubby is sneezing non-stop. Welcome to the beautiful world of kindergarten. Or more, to the people who have to deal with those who attend. Yet number two and hubby covered the pool with the metal plates, we had spareribs, chicken drumsticks and garlic bread for lunch afterwards, before DiL went to the circus with the boys and their father to bed, to nurse his cold. Hubby as well as I did rest, too. We had enough bodily ´entertainment´ yesterday. Too old for such things!The only memorable thing which happened today was that DiL had finally found out that one of her neighbours had died two months ago. Said neighbour had been the sister of a girl I had always played with when I was at my grandmother´s house. She had been eight years younger than I was, but cancer is a pest. And it speaks volumes about the interests DiL has. Neighbours do not have a place in her self-created Romanian enclave. Both boys get addressed in Romanian only, they eat Romanian food, groceries get bought in a Romanian supermarket twenty kilometres off, all her friends are Romanians... it´s a long list I could write, but I won´t wear out your patience!
Hubby is on cloud nine- finally there are new sequels of his most beloved crime series. All through the summer we had to watch repetitions, hubby happily circumnavigating British crime thrillers, which usually are way more interesting. There´s a pool of maybe twenty actors who will appear in all the German thrillers, and my main activity when watching is making a list of which part they play in other series. At least I am better in this game than hubby!
