Birthday's business

I had another day spent in the hospital, now to have a Ct scan. Go to a hospital and take a CT scan it is only comparable to travel to the airport to take a flight, this because we can spend almost all day in the Hospital, waiting for our turn, even if the scan itself is a very straightforward and quick procedure. This exam today was a bit more complex than the normal, it was the first time that they also pictured my neck, this because a small lump that keeps growing there. I want to be positive regarding to the results, but for now I am just trying. This afternoon I was very tired and with small pains in the belly, abdomen and back, this should be also a matter of nervous. The results I will know only in two weeks time.

This week is very special, for some unknown reasons, I have few friends that have birthdays in a short period of time, Yesterday was Rob, today is Sofia, tomorrow Olivia, and beginning of the week is Ryan. A big happy birthday for all of you, and specially for Sofia that must be doing something unexpected :)

But here is Olivia, who is in the spot tomorrow, will be 4th anniversary, the day will be wet, what will put a bigger pressure in the organization, like how to fit all the guests at home, because outside will be wet and cold. Today the princesses have not stopped cooking for tomorrow, I have been in charge of decorations.

In the right side of the road

We are already in London again, we found it very wet and cold, It did not change much since we left. It was hard for Justyna to say bye bye to the family, some tears and sad faces come out in the last day. The journey was very tiredness, we left home at 3.00 AM and only at 10.00 girls were at home in London. I went straight to the hospital to take my dose of this new injection that I will be familiar in the future. In fact this was the plan :(

When everything was explained to me and the nurse was going to give me this new medicine that acts in the Cancer cells, in the last moments he found that I am diabetic, and then all needed to be postponed, I could not have the injection like that, instead I will need to come in the next couple of weeks and stay overnight in the hospital to have the treatment in a more secure conditions, Because that injection apparently mess up all the sugar levels, so they need to keep monitor me through all the night. Shame that they did not confirmed this before.

In the afternoon everybody slept in the afternoon, and in the evening I escaped to my neighbour Jim to watch the Sporting in the semi-final Europa Cup, I was alone they had other commitments, when Sporting suffered the goal I left the house and I come back home, which I regretted as the Sporting managed to recover.

Yesterday we had the confirmation that Olivia was allocated to the school near by us, and which we had applied in the first place. We should be happy as few kids around us were not given this school and also that they had applied, apparently the difference was the side of the road, the kids in our side of the road were offered a place but to the ones in the other side was denied. Narrow border that will makes a big difference, as the other schools could be little further way.

A galinha dos ovos douro

It was more than three weeks in Poland, long but very enjoyfull. The chicken that lays golden eggs also will stop for a while. The days of relaxation and living in a world without problems will finish tonight. Tomorrow morning we will be already in London, I will be in the Hospital the next two days for my business and with a lot of letters waiting for sure :) Olivia in school and Justynamissing her family.

Today Olivia had already a taste for her birthday, a small party for all the Polish family. Saturday there is more..
The chicken looks upset, and she has reason for that, because every morning Justyna's father exchanged her real eggs for a ping-pong ball. It is definitely a bad deal for her.

Ladder to the heaven

This was the trip in bicycle that we planned since we came to Poland, and this afternoon we did it, It was a lovely ride, I even run through the grassland to catch with my camera a family of deers, this was the best shoot I did.
I am totally enjoying the view :)
Justyna in a spot close to the river Warta, where she came often in her childhood with her friends
In the last days I have found out that also I suffer from Anosmia, I cannot smell the fragrance from the flowers. Justyna tells me that those trees smell wonderful and believe in her, I only enjoyed the view and it is more than enough
We can find a lot of storks around here.

Olivia splash all her złoty's earned from the family, she bought a big provision of Polish books to take to London
Today I lost my mind and I could not chose few pictures and because there was so many that I loved I posted a few more than normal, even if soon I will battle with the space in my blog, it is alarmingly running out of space.

Weight gain

This last week in Poland is transforming the days, the days are bringing more visits to the family and losing the time for our walks and rides, for me the best of course, because in the socialatmosphere I am always struggling with my poor Polish. The visits here in Poland means always and always a table full of food. I already checked and definitely I will come back to London with few more kilograms, what makes me again happy.

The Forsyte Saga

Justyna left us very early in the morning, as she went with her mother and Monika to visit Justyna's uncle, which she has not seen for a long time. Me and Olivia woke up and started with our routines, some with the grandfather, feeding the cat and picking up the new eggs, but also we rode the bicycle through the rain and played mikado. I like sometimes to be alone with Olivia, because she is left without the choice of Justyna and I can enjoy her more intensely, to be the father and mother.

In the afternoon all the family, including grandparents went to visit Justyna's aunt and uncle, It was lovely to see Martynka, the new member of the family. But essentially it is great to see Justyna's father together with us, this time in Poland he has been more calm and tried to be closer with us. This is making everybody happier. We are all enjoying his special character.

Limitless Nature

We will miss this sensation of freedom, It is true we do not have a car here, even I do not have access to Internet as I use to, but nevertheless we are closer to the Nature and this gives us the limitless freedom and pleasure that we can take from our daily walks through the forest and even just ride the bicycle and catch the wind which is fresh for Justyna but chilly for me.
