Greetings from somehow deep in my retirement chair, I just wanna say; I’m getting used to it! Actually, these all days which have been passing by, I was a little confused on how to arrange all my time as a retired man but it seems that I get the thread in the hole. π
Let’s first update my situation; I could get my screws in my gums with no problems and got alive out of doctor’s office! Now I have to get some cover on these screws to be able to chew, but let it be this theme. (I don’t want to show any pics thereabout!) ππ π€£π€£
Anyway, my lovely daughter in law with some great help (not just a little as you will see) from my son (her desired man) was born a little sweet beautiful (what elseπ) boy named Ilias.
Although, these times were a hard test for us, grandma and grandpa, because, we had to care of Mila, the latter child; almost one and a half-year-old, and sometimes you will recognize how old you have become. At days playing all possibilities and at nights waking up by being called; Opa, Opa, (the German word for grandpa.) but I will do it again because I love her so that I want sometimes to eat her (also, she has to hurry up to grow!!) π
ππ
And the story of the birth; it was about 4;30 o’clock in the morning of Sunday 31th of May that the Telephone ringing woke us up and my son told that it seems he’s coming! My wife as she always is got quickly ready to take there for help. I (after some sitting with my close friend Jack Daniel’s, stayed at homeπ) thought it would be all right and they’d get to the hospital but after about two hours, she came back with Mila and told me excitedly; the baby has been born!!
I was naturally stunned and asked; how could it be possible? She said that when she came in, the birth pangs had already begone and the mother just shouting “it comes!!” My son has just done something remarkable, he had called emergency and they guided him to give birth to the baby himself till they come. And I am very proud of my son Raphael, who very cool, as my wife described, had operated the action.
Now I have two grandchildren and also retired but to put it bluntly, I don’t feel like asβ¦
So! This video, in the matter of fact. Regina, my adorable wife, had sent me this video clip as she knew by herself that sometimes the retired men need some rest for nothing to doβ¦ she is really fair, though /// ππ€£πππ
Have a safe and wonderful times dear friends ππππ

Haha. Thanks for the fun video, Magician. I think most of us find that being retired, there are still far too many things needing to be done. π
I’m delighted to read this update — so happy everyone is doing well. Hugs on the wing!

Oh, congratulations to you and Regina on the safe arrival of your beloved second grandchild. Sheβs adorable! Ha-Ha! I did laugh at the image of the old man sat in his rocking chair because it seems that your life is busier than ever. The timing for your retirement worked out perfectly this year didnβt it! And good news on the teeth front too! Blessings always, Deborah.

Oh yes, Regina is always active and that makes our life sometimes a little bit out of rhythm π but it is also practical: when it goes too fast I am the break and on the other side she pushes me to move myself and it is healthy π€£ anyway, I must get more money to fill up the famous holes therefore, I will work in the next days now and then but I will keep me calm π€Thank you dear Deborah for your kind words which always accompany me. Hugs πππ₯°

OH NO! Sorry about that. My daughter was mistaken for a boy until she sprouted curls–around 3 years old. She could be in a pink dress and still referred to as “little man.” But still–Proud Opa!
