Don’t halloo till you’re out of the wood!

It was so warm in Kiel today that I didn’t have to wear a jacket! Wow, really, me, the “Frostködel” or with other words, the always freezing Cola. It’s December and it’s so warm, that it’s hard to get the Christmas feeling. Christmas this year means for me that I fly to New Mexico to start a new chapter of my life.
I work quite a lot in my sales promotion jobs this month. That’s good on one hand, because I won’t earn money the next three months at least. On the other hand I’m so busy at work and with everything else that I’m tired and wasted on my little bit of free time. I stopped my eBay (selling) life and concentrated on the only very very important to-do things. Well, in my actual condition mistakes can happen easily. Today the buyer of one of my last eBay sales called me. She expected to get a perfume but unfortunately she got a backpack. Oops. Double oops. Triple…sigh. Oh nooo!
I was very glad that this person was very nice and understanding and knowing that I’m moving to another country (I guess she read my eBay profile) She said, this mistake of mixing two package labels can happen but I shouldn’t worry, we’ll find a solution. Well, the perfume is probably in Hamburg now, while the backpack is in another federal state, in Hessen. I really mixed the labels and glued them on the wrong package. Damn! And I controlled them both before I hurried on my way to work (early in the morning…obviously too early for my brain) to the gas station (where we now can send packages with the Hermes service). It happened last Saturday. Too bad. These two packages were the ones that I had trouble with eBay a few weeks ago. eBay had technical problems and I didn’t get any bids in the last hours. Finally I got my eBay fees for these articles back. Now I must pay the postal double Ok, I hope it’s not more than 8 Euro if they both send each other the (right) packages with the same Hermes service, which is cheaper than sending it with the regular German Mail.
I cannot await leaving Germany and relax in my hon’s arms…19 days left until I fly….from these I work on 14 days (between 7 and 14 hours per day), only 5 (free) days for packing and organizing left…how should I relax?!
