I’m hoping that I left no stone unturned, but if I did I’m sure I can turn it over later. Feels like a gigantic step! Fingers crossed for a quick positive reply. :D
We received an email this morning saying that our NE applications have been approved and show up at the Bürgeramt on November 18th at 11 am with pass, photo, and 113€ to finalize the deal. We couldn’t have received such good news on a better day of this year! 😉

Because just over 4 weeks ago (11th October) I had my right hip joint replaced in Tabea hospital (Hamburg).

After a week there and 3 weeks in Reha St. Peter-Ording I'm able to walk around reasonably without crutches.

I was even able to attend the Mitgliederversammlung of the Bundeskommision Segelflug in Kassel on Saturday.

Going up stairs is hard work but I'm working on it.

That's great news, HEM!!!! Keep up the good work. You'll be running up and down stairs before you know it.

Wait, I can't do that and my hips are fine. :lol:

A little edit - the concert last night surpassed all of my high expectations! It was fantastic!!!

Yay, the new twitter:

"What is Bluesky, the fast-growing social platform welcoming fleeing X users?"
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Disgruntled X users are again flocking to Bluesky, a newer social media platform that grew out of the former Twitter before billionaire Elon Musk took it over in 2022. While it remains small compared to established online spaces such as X, it has emerged as an alternative for those looking for a different mood, lighter and friendlier and less influenced by Musk.

What is Bluesky?
Championed by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, Bluesky was an invitation-only space until it opened to the public in February. That invite-only period gave the site time to build out moderation tools and other features. The platform resembles Musk’s X, with a “discover” feed and a chronological feed for accounts that users follow. Users can send direct messages and pin posts, as well as find “starter packs” that provide a curated list of people and custom feeds to follow.
The rest:

I've signed up and it looks pretty good, a kinder, toned down form of X-shitter :)
