Ja hoor, agenda's en Pieter'...Beste Marian,<br />Ja hoor, agenda's en Pieter' day by day aantekeningen voor werk, training en meetings. En van sommige jaren een compleet dagboek. Anders haal je dat niet zomaar eventjes boven!<br />Ja, voor 1980 was ik ook nog niet verder geweest dan Frankrijk en de Benelux maar toen gingen de grenzen open. In 1982 wat consulting in Italië met wat vakantiedagen er bij aangeknoopt. En in 1983 naar de USA en Indonesië en geïmmigreerd. Dan wordt de wereld ineens veel kleiner! <br />Ja, die Chinese camellias zijn best sterk hoor en zouden het in de kas ook goed doen. Hier in ons klimaat zijn ze heel happy maar voor thee gebruiken we ze niet.<br />Wat Pieter betreft, die is nu naar de emergency, hij had gefietst en werd door een Duitse herder in het onderbeen gebeten. Het bleeft maar bloeden... Op mijn ene kruk kan ik amper mee. Wat een sukkels zijn we!<br />Liefs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-14346927689026935452018-04-06T20:01:08.019-04:002018-04-06T20:01:08.019-04:00Dearest Tomoko,

Otherwise forget it.<br />Yep, our teacups that we use often for green tea.<br />Hope you are doing okay with your busy schedule, looking after your dear Mom!<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-66647876821593324222018-04-06T19:58:22.036-04:002018-04-06T19:58:22.036-04:00Dearest Jim,

Such was the rule for anyone in a VP position. <br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-1942755658456632412018-04-06T19:55:23.386-04:002018-04-06T19:55:23.386-04:00Beste Joan,

Dat doe ik tegenwoordig altijd..maar of ik ze zo lang ga bewaren dat weet ik niet..<br />In 1981 waren we 1 jaar getrouwd en kwamen echt nergens...Waren we ook zeer tevreden mee. <br />"Wat je niet kent dat mis je niet " zei mijn vader altijd...en dat is natuurlijk ook zo. Wat leuk, dat je de link gegeven hebt naar je theeplant, heb ik toen wel gezien, die blogpost, mar is me helemaal ontgaan dat dat een theeplant was.. Schoonzus heeft sinds kort ook een 'in de winter bloeiende' Chinese camellia, en ik heb nu het vermoeden dat dit ook een theeplant is... Hopelijk gaan ze het goed doen.. ik houd wel van zulke 'specialere' planten. Hopelijk alles nog goed met Pieter?
