Sometimes Into the Find in everyday life after the holidays slowly, my “Arrive” was characterized by a hot tub party at my bedroom window into the early morning hours. Through my jet lag but I have always taken only very vague and diffuse the sound and mood, and thus the transition from New York street noise to silence in Vienna was not as difficult.

To be allowed much belustigender I found it then out of the corner of my terrace watching, how adolescent inclinations, as “Spechteln”, and at the age of 40 + not decrease. How random flashy and too often sneaked man to catch at the fence and perhaps impossible to possible insights.

True to my now 3-week North American Tripp I feel a little bit like “Desperate Housewifes”, wonderful if the arrival is an easily made.

Whether by the Swiss, the New Yorkers study “Flip flops are harmful to the feet” have heard? I doubt it, that what was once the sneakers in combination with the classic costume, today is the flip flop in combination with all. Only then the night you finally see Carrie, Samantha und Co's, we know from movies and TV, in short dress, vertiginous high heels and teased hair.

What was striking but significant, is, that woman “Stomach” bears, egal ob in Leggins, Jeggings, Treggings or appropriate clothes, the belly, or the appropriate size is not covered or laminated, but confidently worn to show. This self-evident to us already missing something.

Unfortunately, it is no longer made as the Ocean Drive in Miami, because we only had an afternoon / evening on site. But the city is much more interesting than ever is the Ocean Drive itself. The mix of architecture, cultural activities and the beach life immensely irritating, and so I will definitely be longer again to Miami. Ocean Drive is the image, I know from movies and TV perfectly again. The old cars, I have rarely seen so many Chevis and Low Rider in one place, and to the density of the luxury cars à la Lamborghini and Ferrari complete the picture.

What is the mile apparently necessary, is the rip-off of guests, which is a shame, because instead of coming back, reaches a “I was there and saw it”.

There are things, which are not accessible to me, such as boarding, why all jump up and hinstürmen, while before anything moves. And what standing but then people like to do, is to excite, because nothing is more, Look at the crowd in front of him, if they think, because they sit in the front, that I vorlasse, We'll never get away in time … This list is infinite continues feasible, especially since I'm just so, a copy next to me, it disturbs the most, I sit here quietly and write.

I will not let myself get stressed and yet friendly smile back, because it confused a lot more.

Since the middle of last week I hear almost every morning the question, if today was my junior kindergarten free and the closer our holiday comes, the stronger this desire in him. And unfortunately, I have to question his, if we do not want to take the day off, almost always “no” say, because it is not always about “will” but for that very reason, whether it is.

But it shows, that “Free” Times adults are not only necessary for us and also a kindergarten work and effort means. Know from our daily job hours with the same people together and how we adults, we do not like all the people and it is not always fun. Similarly, children must go, We believe only adults, that in kindergarten anyway only “Halli Galli-” happens, splashing go, Eat ice cream, play any time …

Now it was his last day and time on Monday is really kindergarten free for all of us. Thus, come the holidays.

I have not yet found a satisfactory answer to this question, and if I'm honest, I would only “world-saving” Want to accept the answer (and the difficult). These bastards plunge with full enjoyment to people like me without any regard for, whether I want it or not. Honestly, I get bumps, that look like a second head and itch like hell. And to this day there is no means Hillbilly, because I do not know, how many liters I have poison in the apartment, to this on my clothes, Top, or at the outlets … to give.

The only consolation may be, that I carry this burden with my children, However, when my daughter wakes up and a swollen eye, as after a boxing match with Mike Tyson, has, and my son keeps me awake all night, his legs so that I, Weapon, Move, Palms, … scratch, then the suffering is not divided but tripled.

And another thing, the same every year “oh”Astonishment, because here comes a Gelsenkirchen epidemic. Well what do we expect in the summer with the rain in the spring … For-suffering Gelsenkirchen forage machines every year there is modest … The only authorized to be happy are Vandal, Your, Autan, Nobite and the rest of them, because they deserve to me!

If someone asks me, who has greatly influenced my daughter, then we come to the immediate family environment, That's wonderful, supports and loves her and gives her plenty of grip, and it does not matter, whether these are the grandparents, Elfie, my brother, Lisa … All people, accompany days of childhood.

But at this point I would like to give someone a important place, because this group is often forgotten, their second teacher Helmut. Teachers, Educators, Managers, there are so many job titles, but often do not draw the image, afford what so committed people all. Spend my princess 2/3 their school activities with this teacher, ranging from football to handball. He has even motivated to participate in a triathlon – I could never do!

I remember in first grade when it came to recording the girls' football, that they would see each child exactly as aptitude and motivation, and he did, there were not all children received. My Football bride but very well, even though when I “play” saw, I asked him and really, why he took them. Since he only meant:”She plays with so much passion and commitment, because they just have to be on the team.”

I am very happy about such heroes in our everyday lives and I am also a bit afraid before, resulting in a nearest school – without the protected area – to expect so my princess. But with such’ a strong back of a fantastic teacher I have to actually worry.

Wenn man “old” is outside and is made of certain processes, then it is hard to get back into familiar patterns into, except those, does not want to have to. So it goes with me learning, I write the next week or 3 Exams and hold a lecture and instead, I am learning, what I do of course – currently about Hume, Kant and the Copernican revolution – I sit and I noticed one thousand things, I quickly even between, before and after making, can and will make … Write emails, Write an Article, … I have forgotten the classic learning?

I admit, I've never been good at actually sit down and learn exclusively, but before the pressure was significantly greater. Now I think – Thus, I stand behind the pressure – , that is somehow. I remember my graduation preparation in early summer on the old Danube, next to my learning material I had always a booklet with, to write stories and draw sketches (with my sketches were abysmal). But maybe I need the distraction!

I'll by no means notice, whether and how well I cut, or maybe yes but, let's see, how embarrassing it is!
