My cousin Sarah graduates our equivalent to high school today! GO GIRL!
I'm totally crashing that party, just like I did her brother's two years ago. Or crashing and crashing, mom's invited and I'm going with her. It's perfect weather for a graduation, and the heat-wave that was promised is here! Yesterday it was 19-20C (~68F) in the shadow. Today the forecast speaks of temperatures reaching 23C (~73F) and at a quarter to 8am it's already really warm out. I supposed the congregations for sober youth is a bit displeased, this will mean sooo many more drunk kids on town, but I just don't care. These kids are all legal since they turn 19 this year.
Next weekend it can be a sunny day, but pour at night. That's when the lower schools graduate =) My sister's little sissy-princess have decided to wear her flowergirl dress to her graduation, since it's white and she loves it. She'll be adorable! It's her first graduation, I remember mine, it was all exciting and beautiful and it was SUMMER! Where did they wondrous feeling go?
I'm pondering what to wear... I mean, lot's of my old tops will work in a month or so, when my belly pops and pup is visible to the world. But now I only look chunky... OK, it looks great if I pout, but then I also look 7 month preggie... Dilemma... I-country problems....
Puppy-talk...
I saw the cutest darn baby-slippers yesterday. For the first time, I entered the baby section of our local KappAhl. Or first time, but first time since I got preggie, first time looking for myself, not other's babies.
A was with me (I decided to be social...) and she said the mom's often "feel" what sex they carry... I haven't heard that much enough to think it was common... And still, I don't care. If I imagine getting a boy, it feels 100% right, but if I imagine getting a girl, it feels the same way...
Didn't buy those slippers, though they were adorable, and I'm sure they would be very practical when November comes around, but I am very sure that baby won't lack clothes... Baby-sick grandma's, that's all I'll say... They were however the cutest dark shade of murky forest green.
I spent half that day with A after that. We went to the IKEA-tent. We don't have IKEA here, but they came with a lorry and set up a temporary tent-sale right next to the pedestrian street in the middle of the town. I was only getting some storage boxes... Let's just say, I got some more stuff than that... =)
We also tried on half of the womens clothing on KappAhl. Just for fun, just in case we'd find something great. Ended up deciding A might join us to Stockholm for shopping June 9.
Then foodhunting, that resulted in us going back to her place in Godby (faaaar away, 10 minutes by car...) and eating at a grill out there (since it was after 6pm when we realized food, everything was closed in town) and then just hanging out at her place talking anf giggling.
She returned a dress I gave her a few years back (when it was getting too big for me) and it fitted me perfectly. It's the model I'm looking for now, so I'm pleased, now I only need to find me a short one (this one is floor length) and I'm all set for the summer!
