I feel that I’m slowly getting back to life again. The fever seems to be gone even though I sometimes feel like I’m boiling when I move around. The coughing however came back last night with a full vengeance. So I’ve talked to my work place and will stay at home tomorrow as well.

Next week will be a short one again, first of all we’re free on Friday when it is Midsummer, a holiday almost as big as christmas but for totally opposite reasons. Even though the church tried to make it all about John the Baptist midsummer here is more or less rooted in paganism, I’ve never heard anyone celebrate John to be honest. To be honest very few celebrates christmas because of Jesus now days either, it’s more about the Yule gnome (or as in big parts of the western world Santa Claus) and ways to spend loads of money on things we can’t afford 🙂 🙂 🙂

I’ll also have a day off because I’ll go to the doctor for my hip check. It is now almost exactly twenty years since I got my first hip implant! (and I also think it is almost exactly ten years since I got the second one too). Even though there are strict restrictions of what I mustn’t do with these implants (I think it still is considered an experimental practice, I was too young to get hip prostheses, I would have worn them out too fast because being young would be being too active for them to hold for more than ten years, after that I would only be able to get new ones one more time. They cut off a piece of the bone each time they put them in) I’m still so glad I got them because otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to walk at all.

After I had been to the hospital I went to the store and bought a new garden hose, food for the entire weekend and lots of ice cream. They didn’t have the ice cream I wanted but I decided to try one called Banana Split. I do like a real banana split so I do hope it tastes something like that anyway 🙂 🙂 I also picked up a battery for one of my Minolta camera since I was out driving anyway. I was away for perhaps two hours and was totally exhausted when I came back home 🙂 🙂 🙂

I think it is time to try that ice cream now. I was thinking of having a cup of coffee with it but I’ll skip that since I Feel I’m not tired enough for coffee and it therefore most likely would keep me awake the entire night 🙂

Have a great day!!
