Midsummer
Our midsummer has been quite good so far, despite alot of pain... Can't understand why I've been in such pain lately, my body is filled with painkillers....
Well, anyway.
Yesterday Mum, Louis and I picked up my briother Mikke at his work, to hand him Mums car. He workes at McDonald's and for at reat he bought us all burgers! Ýou should have seen Louis when Mum took out the meat from the break and held the steaming, warm burger infront of him!! He was shaking with exitement and took a huge bit. He's really not allowed to eat thinks like that, but as a treat every now and then we allow him something extra.
Mikke drowe us down to the sea so that I could see the huge, read Fat Boys that are along the promenad line this summer! Wow, I feel in love! I was like a child!! Even I could use these huge bean bags! They were high enough to get down to and high enough to get out of!
I have always wanted a Fat Boy! Not as huge as the one on the picture, but a normal size one. I think that would be a great help for me; to have a rest in and to lounge in when i read or watch TV. It shapes tself around your body and ´creates such wounderful staibility!
When we came home Mum and I made the last preparations for our Midsummer dinner. Midsummer food is almost always hearing in different sauses, smoked solmon, eggs, sour milk, new potatoes and most families have tiny sausages and meatballs too. For dessert we had a classic midsummer treat- a bowl of strawberrys with sugar!! Divine and so sweet!
After oru lovely buffé dinner we moved over to ths soffa and watched "the Tourist" with Johnny Deep and Angelina Jolie. Not really my kind of film. To be honest I'm so anoyed with the fact that Jolie looks like a walking skeletton! What kind of roll model is she?!
But I leaned my eyes on Johnny deep instead...god is he gorgeus or what?!
Midsumer is a really party weekend in Sweden. Most people party all night; drink alot of alcohol, dance and spend time together with friends and family. I don't really have the energy, or strenght, to be able to go to parties. I'm always so tierd and lacking energy due to KT and all the medications. To many of you readers, it must sound strange that I spend so much time together with my mother. Mum and I have gone through a great deal together, she has become my best friend and most of the time we spend time together as friends and not as mother and daughter.
I have never been able to go to parties and dance all night.... Sometimes it makes me sad, but I try to think that my life has given me so many other things that I wouldn't have if it weren't for KT. I can't say that I'm grateful for KT, but I don't think that I would have been the Marie that I am today if it were not for KT.... And for sure, I wouldn't have had the wounderful friends that I've gained thanks to KT.
I'm going to take a shower now. Then a rest and then lunch before mum and I will take Louis for a little walk. This afternoon mum has invited my brother and his family to dinner. I can't wait to cuddle with little Tilda! I just hope they are leting go of her today....
My grandfather (we call fim Far which is Paps in Swedish), mums dad, is also comming. He's a rather pesimistic old man who needs brightening up!!
Well, I ought to take that shower now as I need to rest afterwards.
Hope you all will have a lovely weekend!
