it's been fun

about saturday: last saturday gran went us to the BCC (electric store) to finally pick a new TV. she went home with a new fridge and tv, while we left with a new kitchen stove. it wat an impulse buy.. mum's been nagging for one for ages and I wanted a new one anyway so... yea. don't worry all the pic's are on there way, but before that.... the story.
wednesday: mum, Kelso and me are of to gran. here new tv is arriving and she's scared to let people in the house when she's allone. in the morning her dumbass cleaner was there too.. she's such an idiotic suck up blergh! anyway we had lunch (cleaner was already gone then) and the BCC men arrived YAY. well the fridge was allright but the TV died while one of the man where installing it. (I have to say that the whole time I was playing with Kelso in another room) so the new TV went back but the old one was already in there van. so when I came out of the room there was a new fridge and no TV. I asked gran why she didn't ask them to leave the old one behind... but both of them whern't that smart lol. so my TV addicted gran is without a TV for almost 2 day's. gran asked us to eat Chinese food with her, so we ended up spending the whole day there.. wich was nice. at night (well arround 8:30) when we got home again I cleaned the whole place where the oven used to stand (we moved it a bit) so the new one would be at a nice clean spot.
thursday: we where the first! so at 9:00 we had our brand new stove. (like I said pic's will be up later) arround 10:00 gran came for a coffee and checked out the new stove. she's still TV-less but she made a jigsaw puzzle and sat outside cause the weather was so nice. this afternoon I went to the adress where I normally go to fridaymorning. but where in the hospital tomorrow so I have to go there today.. it's hot and stuffy outside so I don't really like cleaning a house right now.
friday: arround 10:30 we went off to the hospital. were we where right on time, so the waiting game begins. but we both thought that mum needed to get eyedrops, it was just a little convo so we where out of there really really fast. so after that we went to the BCC (where gran got her TV from) cause she needed a scartdevider. so we went there, bought that went to another store to get some sanwiches for lunch (at gran's) and rushed of to her. cause the BBC-men should be there between 11:30 - 1:30 and without that wire it would all go wrong. mum went to gran's right away while I brought my bike home and grabbed the shopping bag (we where gonna do our groceries after gran's TV would arrive). when I got home I was so warm I made my hair wet and drank some glasses of water... it's such a weird weather out there...
friday afternoon: back at gran's I ate my sandwich and the TV-men arrived. TV was placed and the dvdplayer and videorecorder (yes VIDEO) where connected. now gran has to switch between 2 buttons for TV, DVD and video (yes VIDEO). it's the only way in this techno world that gran hates. anyway.. the men left and we figured out gran only had channel 1... weird ey? I told gran to call the provider and the'll fix it. gran (who was mad cause she couln't understand the buttons) snapped at us and said she didn't call. I said okay, but mum told me to call. man on the phone fixed it within 5 minutes. problem 1 solved! the channels where the second problem. with our digi-tv-box it's real easy to madke a favourite list, but gran's is a horror show. we asked gran to make a list with the channel order. she had half on there and a German channel wich she never watches. so here's the situation: I'm so pissed of she kept removing the digibox, so the favourite list was gone. gran got nervous and pissed of that the list she made was crap and mum was annoyed.
after a lot of trying (and cursing) we finally had her stupid channels in order.... finally!

saturday: I bought a little cabinet with glass doors for my nailpolish. so I was on the floor getting it together. gran was visiting and complaining that she didn't understood the buttons. further everything was fine, untill..
(cursing: in Holland there's a lot of cursing with deseases, also the word Cancer.. but cause my mum's mum, my real gran died of that while mum was still young we never ever use that word as a curse. we wouln't anyway.. but it's an extra heavy word because of that)
gran said I cursed to much, I was surpriced cause my granny can curse like a sailor lol. then she went on saying I even cursed with cancer. I said I would never do that bacause of the history. then gran totally snapped and said she heard it and I was a liar blablabla. I just stood up and went to my room, stupid woman knows better and I'm not gonna stand there as she calls me a liar. it didn't took long before I heard someone storm out of the house.
turns out when I went away gran screamed at mum that she should have ordered me to stay and be nice to her (gran), mum said she was being an idiot and that I could leave if I wanted to. thats twhen gran stomed out. she's mad at us, she blames us that she has to use her TV-digi-box. that she has to push a button to go from TV to DVD or video (yes VIDEO). her sister said she had to go TV shopping with her so she would have gotten a good one.. but it wouln't have mattered. the digibox is the present, but try explaining that to someone who keeps holding on to the past.

wednesday

today wasn't a good day -_- eventho it started good. mum and gran needed to get the yearly check up of there electric scooters, so a plan was made. first they would do there electric scooter stuff then me and mum would go shopping. easy enough plan... or is it?
mum told me the wrong adress, they went in another direction, but gran's for everything so I thought they would just turn. I went back and looked arround but I didnt see them anymore and desided to wait at the adress. I stood there for about 30 minutes. then I thought to be smart and went to the place where we would start shopping.. but no mum. angry and confused did I head home... where the hell are they??
 mum already missed me right from the start so she went back to see where I was. she told gran to wait for her, she went back, didn't see me and went to gran. when gran turned out to be gone she thought I caught up with gran and we both left. so she went to the adress alone. only half way her backweel fell off O_O she needed to call for help, a mechanic  came to help her out. took her electric scooter and made sure mum came home alright. where she had to wait for the loan electric scooter to arrive.
gran was with us because she was scared of going to the check up allone. she already screwed up the shopping plans but we where nice and changed out plan to go with her. gran was kjust pissed of cause she had to leave the help allone for a year.  when mum and gran found out I wasn't there gran waited for mum.. for less then a minute. then she just drove off. she didn't care.. I could have been under a freaking car O_O anyway.. .mum followed the same path as gran so mum thought she would catch up.. but she didn't saw gran anywhere! gran also didn't saw mum and her broken scooter. gran got mad she had to wait, didn't even wait a minute and drove off. so when mum called gran to tell her electric scooter broke she was already at home drinking coffee... what a selfish bitch.
so gran was happy at home with her cleaner (who she has for over 3 years and sometimes got her keys to walk Timmy when we where all gone). mum was in shock she almost crashed her electric scooter (there was a real chance she would have fallen under a car) and I was mad cause I had waited for the 2 old birds for far over an hour!! what a day...

gran! the real source of exitement this week.

thursday: gran has been sick since monday (well sunday night) but we visited on thursday like every thursday. we expected just a sick gran... we got a nice surprise. a confused gran, all the curtains closed and no sign that she expected us. (she always puts a treat for Kelso on the kitchen floor ALWAYS) turns out she has been sleeping... since monday! she was feeling terrible and her back hurted cause she kept in bed for so long. she hardly ate and drank mostly coffee... how is she still alive?? anyway. we let some light in and flipped her matras to help her back. during the morning she was awake and moving, you could tell it made her feel better. the days after that she spend more time out of bed, she's also eating more and drinking lemonade instead of coffee. good she's feeling better.
but there's more gran madness:
saturday at 10:50 in the morning we got a phone call: 'I fell and I can't get up, I've been trying for half an hour already!' I was still in my pyama (I like walking around in them in the morning.. who doesn't?) but my dressed mum rushed over there.. well after we laughed a bit and I told her to do what they do to horses if she has a broken leg. as soon as mum went out the door I knew what was comming so I grabbed the phone and took a shower. I was almost done when the phone rang.. 'Yvon come over here the rooms a mess!' so after I was dry an dressed I went to gran's. plate and cup on the livingroom floor with half a jam sandwich. lovely.. well after 20 minutes everything was clean again. gran was on a chair.. her back hurted and mum coulnt bend down so far to clean it. after the floor, I cleaned everything of the livingroom table and put the tablecloth in the washing machine. gran said she didn't have another one. 'hold on, I'll figure something out' went to a closet, grabbed out her second cloth and put that on the table. she didn't even knew she had it!! makes ya wonder how dirty this one was... anyway after we had something to drink we went home. so now she's sick with a bad back. last we heard her back is getting better, she's getting less sick and the curtains.. well like always there still closed. wich is such a shame, we had a warm sunny sun shining today!

la la la Christmas Songs

Carry gave me a good question: why do we always hear the same songs on Christmas?

tradition: you have no idea how fast something becomes a tradition. just think about stuff that goes on in your own house, maybe during a holiday or a special date of the year. Christmas food that's on the dinner table, just to mention one of them. I think the songs are part of that. there oldies which have been arround for so long it's a tradition to play them.. even if it is Wham! *rolls eyes*

childhood: it's a fact that the music we hear as a child will always have a special place in our heart. most people heard from a very young age how the world is a winter wonderland and than some guy is still driving home for Christmas. you here it everywhere! radio, stores, t.v. or anywhere else you might be. at times we even see the memories when we first heard th song, or what happend when 2 man sang about giving a heart away. even when you read this you might hear the songs which titles I used, or smiled at a memory you thought you'd forgotten a long time ago..

brainwashed: yes, you heard me! let's get the truth out there, where all brainwashed! ever heard a song ones and thought it was horrible? but after hearing it 5-10-15 times you start to like it, and after 20 times you can sing the lyrics? it's the same with Christmas songs. there many many more songs out there but it would be pointless playing those. uplifting happy songs with a catchy music and some bells. that's all we want, some sunshine in the cold dark months of winter. the people who create(d) the best Christmas songs know this very very well and used it to make timeless music. annoying at first but with so much warmth that it leaks into our brains where it sits till next year.. and so on.. and so on..
I hope this answers your question Carry
if not: Google!

going to the hospital: easy task or nightmare?

this afternoon I didn't go to work cause mum had to go to the eyedoctor who puts drops in her eyes. the drops make her see everything fuzzy so I had to come allong. we had too be there at 3:10 and ordered a taxi (mum has a special disability taxi service) at 2:00 so we could expect it between 2:00 and 2:30. so we went downstairs at the right time where we started the waiting game... the waiting game sucks an worst of all.. we lost!

at 2:50 the taxi finally arrived! but we had to pick up 3 more people! anyway we pick up the first old lady. driving away from there I saw someone we knew. an 91 year old woman behind her walker. so I said to mum: 'look it's grandma Franken!' mum looked up and waved at her. she smiled and waved back. 'I'll bet she'll be in the hospital before we are' I said out loud and mum started laughing. the old woman next to us turned her head and said: 'is she walking all the way too the hospital??' to make things worse mum had to explain that I saw being sarcastic! some people just don't have a sence of humour.

finally the hospital! I put mum in a weelchair cause the eyedoc is too far away for her to walk. as soon as she's in there I went to second gear and raced mum through the long halls. people gave some strange looks and some kids where laughing when this old very big woman (who looked a bit scared) went for an unwanted joyride..

in the waiting room of the hospital you always see something weird.. it can be some old nagging woman, a man who's scarder then he wants to be or... a sick person. well a sick person in a hospital isn't weird but this woman was. she was in a weelchair (nothing weird yet) and she was wearing a mask for her mouth, which means she has something we can't brath in or she really cant get any change of getting sick. nothing funny or weird yet but.. the mask looked like Donald Duck's beak! that poor woman..

in this hospital you can order a taxi back and the peopl who are getting picked up will have there names pop up on a screen with the time there getting picked up. it's about 30 minutes before the taxi arrives but everything went slow today so I wont be surprised if this takes a lot longer. but we had a little surprise aunt Mercedes! yea you heard me and yea it's her real name. it's family from my fathers side. she chatted with us for a bit. then my mum's name popped up the screen (complete firstname and the E from her first name) it popped up way to early but we didn't mind. taxi driver came and called out mum's name.. mum stodd up an so did an very old tiny skinny woman. turns out she had the same surname and first letter! how weird is that? anyway after about 10 minutes we saw our name, then we saw (about 10 times) the time go 3 minutes later. but when we almost lost all hope.. the taxi!! it was a slow drive hopme but er made it! who knew an eye check up would be from 2:00 till 4:45? next time I'm bringing a book!

life and death..

yea I had another weird dream. it was friday afternoon so we where in the store looking for food when the store was robbed! we all had to stand in line at the front of the store. 2 men with big guns just walked up and down till 1 of them looked at me and said I should go to the back (where they unload trucks). so I went there and waited. he came to the same place and was surprised I didnt ran away. 'im to big to hide in a corner an running away just didn't seem smart' I replayed in a calm voice. he was wearing a balaclava but I could tell he was smiling 'you haven't changed' he said. and I was sure I knew him! but do I really want to know who it is? should be someone I went to school with, but who? no maybe it's better not to know and just stay on there good side. he pointed to a line fof 25-30 people.. 'who would you let go first?' I looked arround 'can you give my mum a chair? if she's on the ground there's no change in hell she'll ever stand up again.' he didn't even remind me they ran the show but instructed the other guy to bring my mum a chair. I was still scanning the people on the floor, looked beside me.. a gun an a guy in a mask.. a guy that knows me.. it slowly became clear to me I was helping to rob this store in a weird way. but I didn't care.. I saw a mum with 3 kids and an old lady.. I was feeling sorry for them. 'you want your mum out of here first?'... 'huh? oh her.. she needs her med's she wont survive without them.' he looked straight at me 'so your mum will go first' I looked at 3 small kid's and a mum who was scared to death her children would be hurt. 'let them go' I said pointing at the kids 'there to little for a robbery, then the old lady before she gets a heart attack.' before I knew it he grabbed me by my arm and pushed me infront of him. I felt the gun at the back of my head, but somehow I knew he woulnt shoot, hell he was taking my advice! the woman with her 3 kids where the first ones to run into the save arms of the police all arround the building. I was looking at mum.. if I would keep her here she wont survive and all of my problems would be over! I could let her go tho.. I honestly didnt know what to do. 'I'm thirsty!' 2 masks looked up, looked at eachother and got some bottles of water, I was drinking my Cola Zero and mum her Pepsi Max. after a while 1 of the masks stood infront of me 'It's that time again..' I looked at mum 'it's not her time yet.' he took 1 step to his right and stood infront of my mum, grabbed her arm and before letting her go. mum was calm, just as calm as I have been.. feeling something inbetween knowing, not knowing and maybe not even caring.

what a great monday!

 today  everything went wrong what could go wrong. missed the bus, the times the bus would be there was differend and if I could out of the bus I would have to search to find the street.. pffffff. but when the bus came I figures out theres a busstop on that street! it turned out it was only 5 minutes away! (the website said 10 minutes and the wrong busstop)so I was on time, the man and wife where really nice too.. a wrong start turned out fine, I love it when that happends! when I was cleaning the guy knew what appartment we lived in, well the building. turns out he ued to deliver the mail. but then he said: 'you used to live at **** when you where still a very little girl and your dad was still with you' I coulnt believe my ears! he remembered me... after all those years he knew where we lived! (I was 5 when we moved an im 23 now, you do the math) amezing, see how ppl know stuff even if you have never even said more to that person then 'ellow, nice weather today isn't it?'
in the afternoon 1 of my dreams has come true!!!! I had a hearing test done and scored a perfect score! so that means I can hear everything, anywhere maybe I can even hear you while yo wisper at the screen 'bet you can't heard this crazy biatch' are ya scared yet? cause... you should be! I could have had that test before but I went with mum and the peeps she heard I could hear, they where so annoying and loud that I didnt want to get my own ears tested. but I wanted to know, I mean, my mums half deaf and with all the MP3 loud music is so bad stuff I was a bit worried I would have damaged it. everythings loud in this house cause my mum can't hear most stuff: radio, tv, her own annoying voice.. anyway's the peeps wernt so loud and it only took a minute so whats stopping you? go get one!
I BOUGHT FANTASIA!! Disney's Fantasia, the dvd. I was all exited till I told Eric who said: 'I don't like singing movies' it's NOT!! then I found out he's to serieus I guess.. I jump whilest watching Bambi and still laugh at how cute the Aristocats are. I do that because it's fun. I missed the grown up train.. I do things that make me smile because why does there have to be an age limit on stuff you would secretly want to do? when I was at school (I did childcare) I preformed whole stories with stuffed animals (I was arround 20-21 or something then) and the others liked that but would never join because... 'it's just not what adults do' I think thats the lamest exuse ever not to do something you like. I blow soapbubbles, doodle or colour, do silly pranks, hide small plastic animals in the house and many more pointless and crazy things not cause im fighting my age but because I embrace it and make it fun!

hospital day

what's going on? well.. Im having problems with my right pinky. there was something in it.. first it was nuthing, then a cyst but now they know what it is! its cartilage that grown in my pinky's bone.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartilage and it hurts! sharp pains, sometimes all the way up to my brain so something has to be done! so now there gonna take the cartilage out on the bone and place tiny little balls there. my body breaks down those balls and fills the whole with normall bone again.. sounds easy enough!https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE2gJmxYdBYQD5n0xdT8zI8HtDOua1rmnaXpu0JNaMiI9-0LR2T283DdmCSRT66nGCPNtLolJ4iPoMQpj3IjvHHCGygMTRkt_RPMmt3-LU7z5rkjbQ0jxQFctEv4kvAw9b6sba4DYUhH0/s1600/DSC_0784.JPG im just gonna do this on time, cause it's easier. I woke up at 8:00 in the morning, and we left at 8:45 for the hospital where we were arround 9:30.there a nurse did the paperwork and took my blood pressure.. everything was fine. we had a talk with a male nurse about 3 weeks before who said its a small surgery and they just need my bare arm... WRONG!! I had to wear a stupid hospital shirt thing and be in a hospitalbed the whole time.... oh well back to the story shall we?

9:55 I was brought to the anesthesia room for an local anesthesia (basicly there gonne make my whole right arm numb). first Yvie got an IV (basicly a waterbag dripping into me) in my hand. the nurse who did that failed 2 times... that hurts! omg worst pain of the day was the back of my left hand! the first time she lost the vain and the second time she pushed the needle in wrong. then she let an older man do it.. he pushed that needle in my arm in a matter of 2 seconds... thank god for that!

10:15 im staring at a clock.. things are pretty boring. the only funny thing was a male nurse who wasnt fully awake yet and dropped almost everything. the female nurse was back to explain what was gonne happen. they are going to give me electric shocks from my armpit and the nurves that move will let them see which ones they should inject so my whole arm will go numb... wtf? yea really.. she also said they have something standing by to make me calm if it hurts to much, but I wanted to feel furst before they where gonna calm me. so the woman who was gonne give me the local anesthesia came to numb my arm. and stuck a needle in my armpit... it didnt hurt at all! and the electric shocks felt funny, it didnt hurt or anything. but there was 1 problem... my arm was numb but I could still move my pinky!

11:00 I was going to the surgery room. first thing I did was tell the doc I could still feel my pinky! I knew they were gonne test if I felt anything first but still.. so there I was on the surgery table, right arm straight on another table, left one the same way on my left side for the IV. I coulnt help but giggle, when the doc asked what was so funny I couln't help but say: 'all you need now are some nails!' (for the dumdum's: it looked like I was laying on a crucifix) there was a green thing on the side they where operating. but then out of nowhere 'ouch!'... 'did you feel anything?'... 'yes! like you poked me with a needle!'... like I said, I still felt my pinky. so they gave me an extra shot. but the second test was the same! and finally after 3 extra shots in the IV they knocked me out allong with my pinky I guess.. well it was half dark, I was laying under a warm blanket.... so yea I fell asleep. I woke up cause It felt like someone was jamming an ice pick in my pinky, it didnt hurt but it felt like that.

11:45 it's all done! Im rolled to a 'waking up room'thing but just my arm was numb.. there they checked my bloodpressure.. basicly kept an eye if anything would go wrong. after a while my arm stated to wake up and in no time I was moving all my fingers and it didnt take long or I could go back to the normall room,

1:00-ish.. there wasn't a clock lol. I got a sandwich and milk.. yummie lunch! I wasnt really bothered by my arm at all. I was in the room with 3 other ppl. in front of me a man with his wife, hehad a feet problem.. dunno what. on his left side a funny ol farmer who was laying flat in bed. nd next to me a girl arround my age, with both feet taped and in a terrible state.. she was on the max of her painkillers and still in terrible pain. after I asked, she explained that the bones of her big toes grew the wrong way so they cut a chunk of bone from there.. she'll be back in the hospital when it grows back again.. terrible thought... I also figured the doc messed with 1 of my bones too! sure a small one but still. I was wondering if I could get any sleep tonight.. even half that girl's pain would be hell.

2:10 nurse helped me to get dressed again.. it should have been really weird but in my education we had to learn that too. it felt like I was back in school in a weird way lol. after that I went down to wait for misses B. who was kind enough to collect me in her car... seatbelts arnt made for people with 1 hand lol. when I was in the car the last thing I saw was the girl that was in the bed next to me. in a weelchair, smiling and waving. yes, we where going home...

2:30 home again! misses B. picked up the pills I should take to make sure it doesnt get infected. after lot's of pinching my arm I found out the numbness was gone, but my pinky didn't hurt! it just felt like someone was sitting on it.. great ending to a day that went faster and easier then I thought :)

Goofy's son..

Goofy has a son named Max, where's Max's mother? well I started to look for that and found this:
There is a little known Disney Character named Penny…
Penny is Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck’s best friend who helps form a trio of companions who did everything together. Minnie the little mouse-girl, Daisy the little duck-girl, Penny the little dog-girl, along with Clarabelle the little cow-girl, Patty the little pony-girl, T.J. the little turtle-girl, Lilly the little lamb-girl, including Minnie’s pet puppy, Fifi, and Daisy’s pet kitten, Trixie, these characters comprised Minnie’s circle of childhood friends. More recently, Figaro the Kitten, Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck have also been added to the list of Minnie’s childhood friends.
Who is Penny and why does she rate an entry? First, because she seems to have played a major roll in Minnie’s early life, forming the third in a trio of comadres akin to that of the Mickey, Donald and Goofy trio. Second, because she may be the mysterious mate of Goofy and mother of Max. This supposition is formed based on a few commonalties. She and Goofy are both dogfaces, has reddish-auburn hair and a red nose similar to the adult Mrs. Goofy: that briefly appeared in a few Goofy cartoons, and similar to the attributes of young “Goofy Junior” before his hair, nose and ears turned black. In “Fathers are People” (Oct. 21, 1951), upon telling his co-workers about the birth of his son, they ask him what he looks like, to which Goofy replys, “He has my nose, the wife’s hair [red]…” Penny, the pre-teen was an athlete and a rather “goofy” character. Mrs. Goofy is tall and shapely, and very much Goofy’s equal. In at least one cartoon, “A Knight For a Day” (Mar. 8, 1946), Goofy won the hand (in marriage) of Princess Penelope (a.k.a. Esmerelda), and Penny is short for Penelope. In perhaps an unconscious allusion by the Disney Studio, at least one episode of “Goof Troop” had Goofy actually dating Max’s school councilor who bore the name Miss Pennypacker in “Date With Destiny” (coincidence? I don’t think so). Finally, both Penny and Mrs. Goofy have disappeared without explanation. If this theory is valid, then Penny, as “Mrs. Goofy,” appeared in four Goofy cartoons. Besides, she’s a much better choice than “Clarabelle Cow” whom Goofy also briefly dated.

I also found a little something on my own:
first pic is Penny the second Sylvia (goofy movie II)
see how they look alike?

 
so now you know what turns Goofy on... sweet dreams!

oh just read...

today I wasnt free as always. I had to work in the afternoon (she switched with yesterday afternoon) but in the morning I could sleep in... kinda. Kelso getin my bed in the morning but also wants to keep an eye on mum! so he goes: in-out-in-out-in-out annoying!and if he's finally in my bed, he crawls almost under me so im scared to move and hurt him. anyway enough about my bed drama. I got up, got dressed and got to work. after work I had to pick up ome stuff at the stores and there I saw matching little pillows with the one mum bought a week ago so I bought them with her okay so she would pay me back. when I got home she started nagging: 8,- for those 2?? I smiled and just said: 'see it as an investment'.
at night I talked wayyy to long with Eric! it was arround 3:00 in the morning (well maybe a bit earlier) that little chat was over and I walked out to go to bed. and saw my mum in the toilet.. just standing there... not in the pot idiots just in the toilet-room-space so I clicked the light of and on for fun. she reacted with: 'my sugar is low'.. O_O she's a diabethic so thats not a good thing to hear. I bought her sweet lemonade and cookies so bump her sugar level up. when it was okay she got into the kitchen and got a sandwich.  but I was totally awake so I did the dishes & dried them. mum was going back to bed but I was so awake I cleaned the kitchen and 1 cabenets in the living room. then I got bored and started writing a lil for my blog (see up here). then I remembered I had work in the morning so I clicked of the lights and after I while I fell asleep. I slept for about 2 and a half hours and then off to work! weird enough I wasnt sleepy...
thursday morning was weird... our elevator was doing down so I went to the other one. on 7 a woman with cane walked in and at 1 a woman who walked very very slowly (always great if you have to go to work) but this was so slow the elavator door closed and she didnt seem to notice! the woman with the cane opened the doors fast and then the slow old women said: 'is this the way to get down? I can't remember. i've been walking up and down now for three times and I dont remember how to get out. I have to go to the stores' oh god I hope that woman can find her way home! when the elevator doors opened again we had to tell her thats the way out!! I was so puzzled I forgot to hurry up to go to work! well I arrived at the adress in time. the rest of the day was pretty normall. we went to get groceries in the afternoon and at night House!

the hell of monday afternoon

I had to get my last autograph from the cat house at 1:00 in the afternoon. when I was almost there I saw black clouds, it was a slowly moving grey blue blanket. and without of nowhere there was a very strong wind.. I tried to keep my bike in balance but it was very hard to do. when I had to take the last corner I looked up and from behind the tree came a big rubber band (like in pools) out of the sky and almost knocked me over. I got of my bike and walked the last bit. when I was in there house it started raining so hard, it looked like someone emptied a bucket. then it became clear she hasnt got the paper I needed O_O so I went there for nuthing. the weather was a bit calmer (altho it seemed that was) so I went home, I knew it would take a long time for the weather to calm down and if I stayed there they could say: she can hide for the rain but she cant clean?? so I went out in the rain, storm and thunder O_o after 2 streets I was so wet (no coat) I took shelter in front of a house and called mum I was in it but okay.. during the call I heard a big bang and smoke. the storm was right above me but the rain became less. the road I had to take contains of many tree's so I had to go now. the storm was going too my home so otherwise it would take hours and who knew when it would end? I was wet and the wind made my clothes feel to cold to stand there for a view hours. so I got on my bike and just went home as soon as I could!
but I had to cross that up there with lightning all arround. I took a deep breath, went very slowly till I saw the lightning and went under it as fast as I could! but this was just a couple of tree's...
these are a lot more O_O its a very long street where only bikes can go true. and well you see the tree's. the ground was covered with leaves and branches. I basicly went as fast as I could doing everything to keep my bike as straight as I could and if you dont listen to the cursing I didnt say a word... halfway trough there came another surprise...
this young tree was across the road... well that's almost an overdose of reality. I lifted my bike over it and went even faster till I saw the road I had to cross, thank god no more tree's!!! I grabbed my phone and called home, I said to mum that I would call again but the line was busy... then I thought I would call gran.. she was busy too. they called each other?? OMG what if one of those tree's fell on my bike? or on me? I got so mad that she didnt even held the line open in the baddest storm of the year! that I went home (now with the thunder behind me) as I listened to sirene's in the distance and felt like I was riding in a low budget disaster movie. I opened the front door and yelled that it would have been less selfish if she could call gran after I was home!!! when I was being mad gran was still on the phone.. I stormed out of the livingroom and took a shower. I was covered in leaves, a couple of bugs and even a red ant (mum said they bite, so I was lucky) after that I told what happend.. she didnt even said sorry... god what a bitch.
the tree in front of the petting zoo.
left over tree parts
the young tree I lifted my bike over, my shoe size is 38 (holland) 6 (UK) so its a bit clearer if that landed on me... it would have hurted... wednesday I went to gran with mum and Kelso she took me aside and said it was rude of me to yell like that.. I was so mad. how can it be rude to her? knowing my mum doesnt even care enough to leave the phoneline open... how can that be rude?

tuesday

the lady I work for had a wooden floor on her balcony. it was brandnew and looked really classy, I would have loved it for our balcony but mum doesnt believe there very handy and would get slippery if it rains. for a moment I thought about buying it but buying something like that would mean im staying here. I dont want too.. lately I havent got a clue what I want anymore. ill just wait and see for a while, I cant stay in a total state of confusion for the rest of my life now can I?
walking back from work I coulnt help but smile, the sun was so lovely. I was still in my wintercoat but I tugged half my scarf in my right pocket. it was still dangling next to my right leg but better then wearing it. as I stept on the grass I smelled the waterditch on my left side. because the water isnt moving the warmth made it smell rotten. thats why the grass is there so people dont have to walk right next to the ditch but that grass is a perfect shortcut so I took my changes. the smell isnt that strong and when the wind changed the fresh air made everything better. when I passed the flat across from ours I could here that the men where still working on the roof. I didnt knew what they where doing there and to be honest I didnt even care. when I turned left to get into our flat I took my keys out of my coatpocket. there 3 keys 1 for the frontdoor, door in the hall and one to open the mailbox, an extra key to open Rene's frontdoor (I clean for him) and my 8ball keychain. in the lift I unbuttoned my coat knowing that maybe and hopefully I dont even have to wear my wintercoat anymore in a view weeks.
at home I found my mum reading while sitting in the sunlight. it made me smile, she always used to read to me when I was little. she made me see how lost a person can be in a book and how much fun it is to read. I started to read more again altho im not a strong reader if I have to read out loud. I can read better in English then Dutch out loud. maybe because I have to concentrate more or because I simply care if its in English. maybe its the last reason more otherwise this would all be in Dutch. its 5o'clock now, almost dinner time. I see now I've been talking for way to long so ill say bye for now.
