Winter, disease and exams - the horror!

This is nice, Easter holiday by the fireplace, blankets and good food (pizza and chocolate ...), outside it's snowing. NO, it's not good. It's April 8th and still snow and cold. I've had enough winter for now. The BF is half unconscious (snoring!) with a retina infection, and I must study, because my exams are only 4 weeks from now. Not much of a holiday, but I suppose the next one will be better. Oh, that's right, I just remembered it's not until SEPTEMBER. Or October. The BF is heading for Afghanistan in July, so there will probably be nothing before that. And our holiday in September/October will probably be the only time I see him the last 6 months of this year. Ah well.

We haven't been able to do any work on the boat yet either, but at least I got to see it. Looks good, with a little work it will be great!

Tomorrow we're driving me home and checking out the BF's new nephew. He'll be like the 4th baby I see this year, I don't think I've seen so many babies before in my life. I must be getting old (or at least my friends and relatives are). My mother hardly knows the names of my friends, but when she hears they are getting children, she asks about their well-being every time we speak. She also made sure to list grandchildren among the enviable stuff all her friends have (a beautiful home, apartment in Spain and GRANDCHILDREN, she said). I thought this kind of longing for proof your genes will move on was a stereotypical behavior only existing on TV, but no, my mother's got it too. Darned hormones.

Off to study and then have dinner with the in-laws. They almost treat me like one of their grandchildren, so I still feel young!!
