No exemption to the rule?!

Why is it that the good times always go by so fast? Do we simply forget about time when we enjoy something very much, or is there more behind? Whatever the answers to the above questions are, the rule has been confirmed again with respect to Markus’s holiday which ended today. A beautiful day with more than 30 degrees and sunshine was the ideal farewell to time off-work, even though at the same time it became even more difficult to return to work. But not only that going forward he can’t spend weekdays with Jakob and Kerstin, he also had to fly to London for a conference and thus be separated from the little one for the first time more than 12 hours.

After lunch at Werner and Renate’s place and a short run he enjoyed the last hours sunbathing with Jakob and cuddled him big time. When Werner came to pick Markus up at 1800 to take him to Zurich for his flight there would have been a perfect excuse why not to leave: Jakob fell asleep peacefully on Markus’ shoulder. Obeying though to the call of duty, he handed over the sleeping boy to Kerstin and drove off heavy-heartedly in the hope that the remainder of the week will pass by fast.
