Moin. Good evening.
It has been a WEEK! I had 5 Unterrichtsbesuche (which means I read 5 Entwurfe and wrote 5 Protokolle), drove over 350 Kilometers, wrote and turned in 2 Hausarbeit Gutachten, turned in semester grades and baked over 100 cupcakes for an 18th birthday. I'm tired...

I've been up since 7:00. We had to take down the computers to set up brunch with Oma and Opa. The boys just got up after 4 hours of sleep. It's going to be a long day!

My youngest turns 14 tomorrow. Instead of a party, he invited his best "bros" over for a gaming night. This is how he "reinfeiern". I am hiding in my office.

All right, everyone. Gird your loins because #Whamageddon starts today. If you heard it last week, it doesn't count. But do be more careful! May the odds always be in your favor.

Here's a friendly reminder that tomorrow is Nikolaus in Germany. In the past, I went to the grocery store at 7 pm because I had forgotten. This year I am already prepared! 💪

As I try and get into the holiday spirit, inflation is popping up everywhere. One of my favorite things is the Christmas almonds from Lindt. I found a bag from last year. A 1.20€ difference, 28%. That's crazy!

It was a very good Friendsgiving. 10 adults, 9 kids. We ate, drank, and laughed until midnight. The kids went outside to play Nerf guns, and the adults played cards against humanity. The food? Chef's kiss. Except for the pumpkin pie. It was underbaked.

Having a house full of people tomorrow for Friendsgiving. My pie crust went wonky, and the pecans are dark. But nothing a little whipped cream can't solve, I suppose!

In all the insanity, did you also see the proposal for a 50 year mortgage? When I mentioned to my husband this looney idea, his reaction was, "I'm not surprised." Excuse me?
He explained something about how this can help banks reorganize debt and for them it staves off an uncoming crisis. /1
