Looks like Spring is now just around the corner.
FOTD 11fh February 2022: Tulipsit was a nice sunny day today and I visited Mr. Swiss this afternoon and took a few photos from the window in his room. This is a view on the estate where I live, so we are really not so far from each other. Yesterday he had a visit from the hairdresser who visits the home every Thursday and now his Father Christmas beard is back to normal and the remaining hair has been trimmed.
I was busy organising my desk this morning which was quite a task. I removed the filing cabinet and shifted it into my office room where I had also made a few changes. I have to keep myself busy somehow.
I called our computer guy this morning and he will be calling past next week to help sort this cable salad. I am sure that half the cables are no longer connected, but it really needs someone that knows what they are doing to sort it all. It is otherwise impossible to clean away the dust and dirt that has collected over time beneath the cables,
Although I am not removing everything. Yesterday I discovered this Leica camera and decided that Leica are too expensive to dispose of. I found the manual as well so have a chance to discover if and how it works. It has a card in the camera but nothing like those of today. It is twice the size and I am sure it would be almost impossible to buy a new one if necessary. Is there perhaps someone here that might recognise this object?
Mr. Swiss also has a nice view towards the Jura mountains from his window.
And this little cottage is next to this home. They have a small animal farm next door with some goats and sheep.
Otherwise I was busy sorting things at home. I am now quite pleased with my office although I write most of my contributions now in the living room at the desk that Mr. Swiss always used. I spoke to No 2 son on the phone this evening and him and his family are now almost Covid free, although they all have a slight cough as a reminder. From tomorrow they are allowed under the population again, although will wait until next week to be sure.
The day began quite misty with some heavy clouds, but they eventually cleared away to make room for the sun.
When the mist dispersed you could again see the slopes of the Jura mountains.
And that was my day today. Tomorrow I might visit out town again if the weather remains good and on Sunday I will be visiting Mr. Swiss again. Have a good week-end everyone.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain!

Fiction Writing
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.
