Winter-Love



(What?! What is that with my hair and weeee... I have wrinkles all over. LOL!!! Help! (Get old or die, right)...).

I do not like the dark half of the year.

Buuut.
The other day, looking up from trying to get her three kids under control, the neighbour exclaimed, "ohhhh, what a cheerie coat you wear!".
Yes, Gurri again!

And then I entered the pharmacie and before I even could say "hello" the sales woman went, "ohhh your wollie-hat looks so happy!"

And at the grocery store... "ohhh, nice earring! :-)"

Funny how I do not like this time but make many happy :-)

It´s the little things, right?

(Yes, I started with the earring, the other two are "well known" already to readers who follow for some time.)

But here is the other stuff!



It seems like I smile a lot despite the time of the year, I was even asked if it hurt.
???

"That 'diamond' on your tooth! I´d like one, too!"

Nahh, it´s just glue. Sits there since 10+ years...

Her boyfriend: "I heard of a person who got a hole drilled in the tooth for that!".
I nearly fainted, WHAT???? Never.EVER!!!!
But when I added, you have to go to the tentist anyways for this the girl looked a tad pale ;-)

But mostly I made people smile, right???



Right??

She even chatted (cash-out was full!), telling me where to get earrings for New Year´s Eve, LOL!
She always wears a Christmas hat at this time of the year and as far as I see it no one says a word, so I make sure at least I do and have another earring to make her smile every time :-)

Lion of the day:



Guess my smiles were all out, just like Roberto Benigni´s English was all out when he won the Oscar ;-)

Deine bunte und lustige Klamotten sind super, genau richtig für die kalte Jahreszeit. Lustige Ohrringe, auch. Ich habe auch welche, suche sie aber noch, wahrscheinlich finde ich sie irgendwann in Frühling! Ordnung ist leider nicht mein Ding! Dir einen schönen und bunten Tag, GlG, Valerie

Iris Flavia said...

Murphy´s Law, wahrscheinlich trägst du die Ohrringe dann zu Ostern ;-)
Ja, bunt muss sein jetzt! Ach, eigentlich immer, oder?
Dir auch einen schönen - und bunten - Tag, GlG, Iris

...you have wrinkles all over? You are way too young! Enjoy this festive time!

Iris Flavia said...

Well, fine wrinkles, but wrinkles :-)
Signs of a happy life, right? A festive time to you, too!

Jeanie said...

I love it. I love every bit of it. Coolest earrings ever, great hat and jacket! It all makes me smile very big and very happy! Of course you are getting compliments. (And wrinkles? I've earned every single one!)

Iris Flavia said...

You made me smile big, thank you, Jeanie, and yes, dito, most wrinkles are from laughing!

It's nice to see someone dressing to entertain other people and make them happy! Too many people are thinking of selfies and Instagram photos and looking way too cool. So much desire to fit in.

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you Mae. Oh, will the selfies-era ever end?

Bill said...

Very cool earrings, I like them. One year I bought my wife some frosty earrings and she got some comments from people.
Enjoy your evening, Iris. BTW, I love your sense of humour, it makes me smile. :)

Iris Flavia said...

Bill, if I may say so: That sounds very cute, and yes, I do think men can be manly cute :-) Dito have a nice evening over there! :-)

Alexandria said...

I have always thought of you as a happy person Iris, and the way you dress fits you to a T:)

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you very much, Alexandria! My Mum always said I´m a pessimist! Sad she cannot read this - HA, I was always right ;-)

Cool earrings.

My name is Erika. said...

Oh yes Iris. You hat and earring and bright coat is so cheery. It is exactly what is needed during long nights and too short days. I like your earrings, even though dangles bother me because I don't like anything touching my neck, but I would wear them if I could deal with dangles. Have a super Friday. Hugs-Erika

River said...

Wrinkles? I don't see any wrinkles. I love your earrings and that hat is cute.

Iris Flavia said...

William, thank you.

Erika, hm, I don´t feel the earrings (much) - luckily. And the smiles you get are worth it :-)
I´m wishing you a wonderful Friday, too, hugs, Iris

River, let´s call it creased? Not fresh anymore? But, that´s life :-)
I got the earrings in Perth, but slowly we get themed ones here, too.
