How To Unlock Hint Movies Mario Wii

Strange findings ...

I am limping again after my English blog, shame on me ...

Today I want to present two finds, which I still do not quite know what it should be. We found the things as my husband's foundation wall uncovered in order to lay a drain because we have some problems with rising damp ...

And here are the two items found in both 50 cm Depth:



Ca. 5 cm long. The assumptions in the English blog predominantly go in the direction of "canine" - either a large dog or a boar. Other opinions?

And this:





The thing is about 5 cm long and definitely out of clay. Otherwise, I'm
here but still completely on the tube. The proposals in the English blog seem implausible (candle holders and pipe). Any idea is welcome;)

Addicted To Honey Bunches Of Oats

Historic paving renovation, part 2

After we had selected the correct tiles began the brutal part of the work;) The paving stones had to be beaten into the ground. My husband did it by hitting with the blunt side of our ax to a piece of wood lying on the stones:



It was a terribly demanding job, but we did not use a vibrating plate, to obtain the characteristic roughness of the pavement.
came slowly but surely we:


and finished last, this step:


had to be in a next step, the interstices filled with a kind of mortar. We used for mortar (gravel-sand), at its own recipe, which we had previously recovered from the sieved soil from the "excavation".





Then we removed the excess grout from irrigation, re-grout, re-watering ...


And that's the result:


I find it great!

Historic paving renovate

our house and two outbuildings (one workshop and a former stable block, built by the previous owners to a seminar house) form a courtyard of 150m ². Most of it is covered with a historic setting, which consists of sandstone and boulders.


I had the photo edited for my English blog and leave it with the English words in here.

And this is the patch in a close-out (yes, I should have more weeds ...):


For whatever reason, about 2m ² patches were missing from the stable building


Because this area was transformed after each rainfall in a kind of wetland, we have decided to pave the missing piece. And of course we wanted to use as possible original patch. We have learned that much lack of old material that was removed during earlier renovations, is still to be found somewhere on the property. So

we started to look for paving stones ... And - have actually found that: in the garden, in the flower beds, in the former pond (even a gold mine for all sorts of things, most recently appeared on an old door ...):



First, my husband some ground away (about 20 cm thickness) and made an indentation with about 10 cm. Pebble-sand mixture, then filled and fitted corresponding stones, quite a puzzle:



Get out the same in Part II of this paper ...

Which Wendy's Is Hiring In Brampton

mouse in the house!

Although already happened last weekend, but who knows what awaits me tomorrow morning ...

We have mice in the house! Well, too great a surprise it was not, after all, our house about a million cracks, crevices, small and large holes, etc. However, it is actually

pretty annoying if you have on Sunday morning at 4:30 in the clock awakened early by his own cat, because she is one of these mice has caught, they drag us into the bedroom (fortunately not in bed ...) and then calmly playing with her, so that the mouse squeaks and squeals like crazy .
You are standing on and so choose, you take away the cat "toy", because you Mouse want to stop them from crawling under a cupboard somewhere, where you only smell it but can not be removed. You turned, catch the half-dead mouse that looks like through the meat grinder and take them outside - in the hope that tomorrow it is no longer there. Then you go back to bed and try to forget what you have just seen, up but with the deadly injured cat bother, it is now - was in revenge for the stolen mouse apart on your toes.

And at some point you give up easily and think

BEAUTIFUL SUNDAY YOU ALL!

How Much Does A Quincera Cos

Our front door: 1944, 2007 and in the future?

We have this old photo of our front door found from 1944:

recording: © "Bildarchiv Foto Marburg"


And this is the door - unfortunately - today:


My husband has a minor change made: He has enlarged the mail slot ... :) We get quite a few packages and our lovely neighbor to receive them whenever possible. Recently, the whole thing a little overboard, so it was uncomfortable but we - hence the large mail slot:




The current door is probably from the 1950-ies and in my opinion is really ugly ... We want to exchange it for an occasional old (or a new one, which is manufactured according to old models). We want to keep the overhead light in any case, otherwise we know not even know which door it should be.

inspiration around us, we are just walking through town and have other doors photographed. I find it really difficult for me to decide on one, they all find nice;)

What Year Does The Tahoe Body Style Change

first (unsuccessful) attempt with clay ...

... or: It does not smell as it looks ... :)


described earlier, we had had a hole in the bedroom floor and after doing the old mouse's nest was got rid of, we fill the hole - after all, we wanted to avoid reinzustolpern it, and us to break the ankle.


Reminder: This all happened shortly after we moved and we were a little overly enthusiastic. We wanted to fill the hole with clay. My husband organized a Clay-straw mixture and off we went:


And the end of the story? It was way too much and too moist clay. He never quite dried and finally began to rot:


We scraped everything back out and then filled the hole with plaster - the same material that makes up the rest of the floor ...

Finally, we moved a rug:


This is only a temporary solution, because we eventually want to lay a wooden floor (boards). And a carpet in the bedroom is admittedly quite comfortable;)

So much for our first adventures Herumpanschen with the clay ...

Happy Birthday!

On one of those July days our cat seven years old. We do not know exactly when he was born, he was a foundling. We found him during a walk in the woods: He was lying in the bushes, chirped for his life, hardly two weeks old. We'll then have until the syringe and then raised with the bottle. And he was sooooo sweet:




He has grown into a beautiful cat: idiosyncratic but always gracious, a wonderful companion that fills our house with a lot of life. And even if some people say, we are only opener for our cats, I do think that they like us too.

Here are some nice pictures of him and all who have a black cat know how hard it is to photograph;)
