Countdown, only 3 more weeks!

Three!I have started the countdown. This is Ana’s last month being pregnant and it is going to be the first month in our lives as parents. Still only 21 more days. If everything goes to plan I will leave in a little less then three weeks to Madrid to join with Ana just one day before giving birth. The next day we plan to go to the hospital together.

Ana is already in Madrid, taking it easy and trying to relax. I could not join her because I want to save my holidays (I don’t have so many) for when Pek is born.

What I am doing in Las Palmas, without my wife? Well, she left me a big list with chores, but still I find time to read, go our running, watch some movies, listen to music and relax a little. Might as well enjoy myself now, because my life is about to change.

My Dutch tax return has been finalized. This week I planned to figure out how to validate my Dutch diploma for use here in Spain. Still I need to make an album with the photos of our wedding and I want to make a little album with photos of Pek because by now we have gathered a huge number of echo-photos. Enough to make an album.

Finally, if I can find the time, I would like to finalize the project for the red cross and maybe publish our own ‘project‘.

Easier dreaming

More dreams!I’m not sure why, but I think my sleeping pattern has changed because of some change I expect in my life in my near future. The result is that I dream much more and have a much easier time in remembering my dreams. Of course it helps that I have an old-fashioned notebook and a pen lying right next to my bed on my nightstand.

My dreams are pretty strange. These are a few of them.

  • A dream about a soft inflatable toy bear.
  • A dream where I’m a swimming champion. I need to swim a match against an evil rival. I win the match.
  • A strange dream where I’m living with two spines. A dig part of one of my spines I remove with brute force. The rest is removed in an operation. None of this even bothered me.
