Congratulate me :-)

Today I went to the hospital and got the answer I wanted. They´ll fix my hip! My doctor has retired to be honest and shouldn´t be there at all, but he comes in every second month to help out with surgery in the orthopedic departement. Since there have come new plastic materials that holds longer than the material they have today, I might be one of the last to get the kind of implants I have. I´m almost historic then having two hips fixed that way :-) So they´ll probably fix me this December or February next year :-)

Bertil and Teodor still haven´t found out how to catch my fishes without getting weat at the same time :-)

Snails finds most places to be a good resting place :-)

They said in the weather forcast thet it probably would rain here today. It started out as clody, then the sun came and shined a long time. Thunder looked by for a couple of minutes and then a slight drizzle came. Then it all started over again :-) I can hear the thunder on a distance right now, so I better make this blog short.

Day lilies looks so beautiful for one day.

But already the next day they have given up.

I tried to take some pictures when travelling to the hospital. Most of them were crap, but the few I managed to get right is showed in the bottom of this blog today. I drove that way to work for almost eight years so for me it looks so familiar. Mostly I don´t even think about how it looks there. But the raod is really beautiful. Now I can see that I only got pictures from villages and the bigger town Skövde, not how it looks the rest of the way. If I remember I´ll post those tomorrow. For me it´s nothing special though, just fields, forests and mountines all the way.

Pelargonium australe.

I´m not sure Erna is happy about having Bertil next to her. But nowdays she doesn´t try to bite him any more :-)

Well I can hear the thunder even more close now so I´ll better stop this for today. Tomorrow it´s work again. This time they´ll know I´m komming to work though :-) No chanse to do nothing I´m afraid :-) I think I´ll ask them if there´s any idea to keep me working on the weekend any more.

Soon two persons in my departement will loose their jobs because the state of the world finanses, but with my surgery comming up we might have a chance to save one job. We need one more person who knows how to operate the machine I´m painting with and to be there when I´m gone. We just have to hold our thumbs and cross our fingers for that.

Have a great day now!

An old Mission church now transformed to a home. This is getting more and more common.

Outside the bigger cities houses mostly doesn´t get any higher than this. Even in Gothenburg most houses doesn´t get higher than twelve floors.

Most houses is hidden behind tress and bushes all over the countrie if close to a big road. Hard to belive that there are hundreds of houses here.

This appartement building isn´t that far from where I live. There are some similar buildings all over the country.

But on the other side of the raod there is an old farm.
