Dr. Pretty normal but pretty grumpy

 
My doctor is a pretty grumpy doctor. He is not happy to speak English and he was pretty upset when he got me as a patient. But as time has gone and our baby bump has grown he has become softer and an important support. I have got use to him always saying that results and findings are PRETTY normal, not normal but pretty normal. In the beginning I thought what the hell does pretty normal mean is that good or can I be more normal? I have digested the expression and of course he is right. We are all different and actually what is normal? Probably none of us are totally normal just pretty normal not more not less.

The other day when I visited him for the last time before mini is born, I gave him a bottle of wine that Mr Nikolovski sent with me. As I gave him the bottle and thanked him for taken such good grumpy care of us I even got a little emotional. For the coming weeks I will do all the controls at the hospital which is all new and scary again.

Dr. ganska normal och ganska grining

Min doktor som har tagit hand om mig medan mini har vuxit är en ganska barsk för att inte säga riktigt gring herre. Han var uppenbart irriterad över att ta sig an mig som patient och tycker inte alls att det är kul att prata engelska, även om det inte något som helst fel på hans engelska kunskaper. Ju mer tiden har gått dessto mer har han mjuknat och till och med blivit ett viktigt stöd och trygghet. Jag har vant mig vid att alla mina resultat och kontroller är ganska normala, inte normala utan ganska normala. I början hade hade jag svårt att förstå vad tusan han menade med GANSKA normalt, är det bra eller dåligt och kan mina resultat vara mer normala? När jag har fått smälta ganska normal begreppet, håller jag med honom.. Vad är normalt egentligen vi är väl alla olika och normalt kan inte vara ett absolut påståeende, så ganska normalt är ju faktiskt så bra som det kan bli.. 

Härrom dagen var det mitt sista besök hos min doktor innan mini ska ut och Mr Nikolovski hade skickat med mig ett flaska vin att tacka honom med. När jag räckte över flaskan och tackade för att han tagit så tjurigt bra hand om oss blev jag en smula emotionell. Inte hade jag trott det för några månader sedan att den grinigaste doktorn skulle bli saknad. Nu ska jag på kontroller på sjukhus, usch för nytt och främmande igen.

Daycare introduction no walk in the park

Kids started kindergarten 18 August.... My dad spend first THREE weeks being with them as an introduction. They refused to leave his side and if the teacher hadn't told us that we have to try to leave them there by themselves a little I think he would still spend his days at kids daycare with them ( very carrying granddad indeed)  First weeks (!) I had to pull myself free from screaming and crying kids to get to work. It broke my heart over and over. But worst to come... After this phase came the silent big crocodile tears. Horrible and even more heart breaking. These tears was accompanied with Mila begging me not to leave her and saying "but I love you and I want to be with you" " I miss you sooooo much" "Why do you have to leave me?" "Who will take care of me?" "I also want to be a grown-up so I can come with you to your job" These begging and her being very nervous for being left at kindergarten was more then heart breaking i

Garden dreams

The benefits of having a garden are many and have been proven within different study areas and disciplines. To grow and take active part in the process from seed to plant is well-known to be good for your soul and well-being. During garden work our bodies produce more happy hormones, such as dopamine and serotonin. It also reduces the stress level and makes you experience a great here and now feeling.. The physical work needed in order to control what is growing and where has a great effect on your body as well as your mind. After a long day running a round with a wheelbarrow, a rake, spade and other equipment’s a great satisfying feeling is spreading all around your body and you will fall asleep fast with a smile. Ok note that you might wake up sore here there and everywhere, but that’s the name of the garden game... Other benefits with a garden are of course all the fresh products you can harvest and enjoy for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Organic home-grown fruits and vegetables, I
