Scrabble.

Fredrik and I played scrabble last night (Alfapet). We only have a Swedish version of the game - I bought it to have a fun way to practise Swedish. :) Although Fredrik refuses to let me use a dictionary, which I think is unfair! We haven't played in awhile (used to play all the time), but I found it hidden away in a box last night after we decided to play.

Our parent group meeting today was slightly boring.. :/ :) I tried my best to stay awake, but it is difficult when it is so much repetition of what I already know. :/ This evening we went over: delivery (watched a clean, nice, quiet video) and pain medication options.

After the meeting the midwife came over and asked how I am doing, and I complained about having trouble sleeping. But I did mention that sleeping on the couch is helping. I slept much better last night than I have in awhile.

But during the meeting she mentioned about when to go to the hospital and when we should pack our hospital bags, etc.. I think the next meeting we will be going over our stay at the hospital, what will happen, etc ...

Before the meeting, we stopped at a paint store and picked up very many paint swatches to try to decide what color to paint the room. A version of light green is what we are going by right now. :) Nothing too: green, yellow, blue or institutional ........ :/ :D We'll see what we come up with.

Yesterday I sanded the little bookshelf and then today we also bought some base paint. So hopefully I can start on that tomorrow. If we can quickly decide on what color we want for the room, I don't think it will take much longer to finish everything.

CSI (Las Vegas) is on soon - the only show that I make a point of watching. (I try to catch Law & Order when it is on, as well as Scrubs, South Park, etc.. - but CSI I make time for.) :)) It reminds me a little bit of my past life = life before Fredrik/Sweden.. ;)

Hmmm.. Trying to think if there is anything else. Karl-Astrid took a very long nap today and didn't move for quite a while, which is very unlike him/her. But then during the meeting, he/she didn't stop moving for one second - So, always making a ruckus when it is most undesired.

We really want to get a trip in to the summer house some time soon. We want to make another trip to Svinesund to get to the baby store to try to buy some more things we need (like a diaper garbage pail, etc..). We would have bought them by now, but with no store around here - it is difficult. :(

Ehhh... I think that is all for now... :/ :)
I stay pretty bored all the time. I've been keeping myself sane by playing The Sims 2 religiously since we moved here, but I haven't played it for a couple of days now, so I think I have used up that resource. I've been thinking about starting a petition to bring Åhlèns (a small department store chain) to Åmål.. :))
