Feeling great!

I'm feeling much better! The pain is keeping its distance for right now. (Which I hope it does for at least a little while.) I can function very well (although I'm still in a bit of discomfort), but Fredrik still won't let me go anywhere...... :P :)

I didn't get to watch CSI last night... :( There was the DIF-AIK game (2 rival Stockholm teams playing soccer).. so.. of course that was first priority.. :/ :) I can catch a rerun later in the week, so no problem.. :) But I did get to finish up the bags last night! I have a small duffel-bag suitcase, Fredrik has a few things in a bookbag, and the baby has its little bag. Packed everything except bathroom stuff.

And then after the game we hung-out in the baby's room for awhile, and discussed a few things..: size of rug to buy, things to finish up, things to buy, where to put stuff. Fredrik worked a little on trying to level furniture (since the floor is so uneven). It is better.. but the floor is so bad, that the drawers in the changing table just slide open... :/ :)) As long as it isn't so tilted so that Baby rolls off...... :D

Fredrik is much more upset about things that are wrong with the room than I am. And I try to tell him that we can only do as good a job depending on what we are given.. :/ If you have crooked and uneven walls, and hilly floors.. there is only so much you can do.. :/ :) With what it looked like before, and what it looks like now, I think he did a great job. :)

Before:




After:



Not finished of course.. :/ :) But it is still 100x better. At least the ceiling is now white.. :P
And the texture on the walls before ... You can't tell in the picture, but there was a nasty material under the paint that was touchy-feely and horribly nasty.. :/ And it made the paint feel and look like plastic.

I checked the shipping this morning, and the laptop is in Karlstad! :) So maybe it will show up today. :)

Fredrik came home 2 hours early yesterday.. :/ :) Surprised me. :)
He said that he needs to start learning to work from home, that they encourage it, that they know it makes their workers happier. So, he just has to start getting used to doing that. Which he really wants to get in the habit of doing now, since the Baby is coming soon. :)

And Fredrik told me that his boss told me to keep the baby in as long as possible...... :/ :D
Obviously they want to hire another guy to do some measuring (in the Mellerud area, I think? Not sure I remember correctly) and to be around to help Fredrik out when necessary, or take over while he is on pappa-leave, etc.. So, they want to hire him in and let him have time to work with Fredrik, to go over things, etc.. before Fredrik has to disappear for awhile.. *sigh* But they still haven't even decided if they are going to hire him yet.. *rolling eyes* :/ :)

Hmmmm.. *think*
Been a quiet couple of days.. or rather a quiet last few weeks.
Fredrik is buying stuff like mad for work. I think he really enjoys it. :/ :) It isn't often you get to go into a store, spend whatever you want, and send the bill to someone else.. :/ :))

But that is all for right now. :P
