Hello dear Steemians,


 

This is the first post this year and I did not want to lose the moment to announce that yesterday sometimes over the night we also reached Reputation 70! That is so exciting for us, actually for me, I have already started to annoy my husband with my constant question when we reach Rep.70 as it is a while we are hovering around 69, it was quick to start with but then after 60 usually it slows down.
Nevertheless, dear friends only with your support and interest in our blog you made it possible therefore our Great Appreciation and Thank you for all our Followers and Friends!

Now back to New Year event, in German 31st of Dec also called Silvester and for me it is very special event, since being a child I loved that day, magic moment of finishing one year and starting new one. It is like starting new book with empty pages and we can write everything new, this time without mistakes that we did and of course we want to have more exciting events.

 

To Hospital at New Year Night


 

One of the Silvester nights I never forget, that time our son was a baby and had cold, so he was already sleeping and we were ready for countdown as it was shortly before Midnight. About half 11 he woke up with bad barking cough and could not breath properly and started to cry too. That was first time that we had such moment and what we did, of course we had to drive to hospital.

If you did not drive a can New Year night then you have no idea how horrible it is, the streets are full of people, many of them starting fireworks, children on the streets and of course some drunken people. All of them were very angry with the car that was trying to make its way through because of course they did not know that there is a child who can't breath.

Anyhow half an hour later we arrived to hospital and after Nebuliser mask and some steroids our son was fine but me and him we had to stay in hospital and @myskye had to drive home alone. That Silvester night none of us will forget and every time we automatically think about that event.

 



 

Our New Year


 


 

 

We had a small gathering, like I mentioned to our friends, we wanted to do it simple and not much work as we are on holidays therefore we decided to make a Raclette, many german speaking countries know that, it involves an electric table-top grill with small pans, known as coupelles, in which to places the topings that you prepare, cut to small pieces that been placed on little pans and covered with cheese, once cheese melt you can take and eat it. You can spend hours chatting when you think you need next portion you do it yourself.

 



 


 

An the end I wanted to show you one of my watercolor painting of Netherlands old city centre, that we framed and presented to y mother-in-low and here how it looks on the wall.

We are wishing you a nice and relaxing time no matter where you are currently, good health, happy moments and success!

 



 
As always, @Stef1 and @myskye

I don't drive anymore but I can imagine that nightmare. It's the same mess over here. Not only in Christmas but also during Saint John's Day and, of course, when FC Porto conquers a football league! 😁

Great painting. It looks quite good on that frame.

Happy new year, Steffi!

Yes it is horrible how we people get irritated when something interfering what we are doing, when there is football play here then we try not to drive anywhere too, it is the same everywhere, that is a truth.

As to the painting, we were lucky that it was this frame black with coming through golden background, fits well to the black of buildings on painting.

We wish you too Happy New Year!

Happy New Year and congrats on hitting rep 70. Hitting rep 60 is pretty difficult can't imagine how much it requires to reach 70. :)

This is understandable that this kind of New year Eve is necessarily unforgettable ...😉

I remember a year when my two year old son had chickenpox at Christmas and his two month y.o sister had it one week later ... for New year Eve ! 😃
it was 23 years ago and i hadn't thought about it much until today when reading your post 😊

Hi Barbara, thank you for your nice wishes! I can imaging how you did feel with two little ones unwell over such holidays like X-mas and NY. The good thing is when everything ends up with good outcome and later we can tell our children those stories :)
