I love...

 ...Inspector Lewis. The series, of course. It´s on TV every Wednesday at the moment. Yesterday evening I put pretzelsticks and my daily vitamin cocktail on the coffee table, searched for my cosy blanket (it´s too cool inside the house, hopefully not for long) and started watching. I woke exactly ten minutes before the episode ended. Blimey! Of course, sleep did elude me when I went to bed. But I woke at six thirty once again. Five weeks of having to get up at that time have definitely conditioned me. Blimey again!
The pool got readied for use by husband this morning. Even the robot did his job. What´s lacking is the candidate who wants to risk a pissed bladder. At the moment the water is 20 degrees- on the surface. Deeper down it´s even colder. So we waited, and hoped, and waited some more, but temperatures outside went up very slowly, reaching 22 degrees at midday only. After we had had burgers for lunch, both hubby and I decided to do a nap. But at two exactly two of the neighbours packed out their lawn mower. Five minutes later hubby joined them. Now the smell of freshly cut grass is nice, but a nap would have been even nicer. Not a chance with all that noise!
Later in the afternoon our mobiles started buzzing- husband's darn sibling group I joined an aeon ago and have not left yet. Who will bring what for the meeting they wanted to know. Hubby will be off to meet his siblings and their wifes and husbands on Sunday. I won´t join him, those Jehova´s Witnesses have overstepped their mark, when they showed up at my mum´s house regularly to make her join their religious community- and I mean those relatives of hubby in person, not other emissaries! Mum did tell me too late, or I would have given them a piece of my mind earlier. So Sunday might be a perfect day for me- warm weather, pool useable, no cooking... now let´s see who feels the need for coming for a visit! There aren´t many candidates left! Oh, I forgot about family number one not going to South Tyrol for holiday- DiL1 cancelled, she thinks Konrad is too young for the altitude, the pediatrician told her so. First- it was she who did chose the vacation spot, second- the pediatricion knows nothing of it, so son says. If the family sans mum and Konrad will show up on Sunday it won't be a big affair. Son number one is uncomplicated, the boys placid. Then there´s number five. She hasn´t sent me the complete list of her early shifts yet. But that girl is fun and very useful- I can put her in front of the jigsaw of horror and she will find pieces, while I haven´t found any for days now.
She´ll be here this evening and tell me what´s up the next days. Maybe I will put the sunbed up on the terrace or sit on the couch, and we can watch shooting stars- usually we are up earlier than needed...
