So that was that Midsummer. An old "pagan ritual" we have here in Sweden. Usually a good excuse for drinking excessive amount of alcohol and just getting pissed. The lightest night of the whole year. Now it's only getting darker again. Not very positive am I? Says she who is to give birth during the darkest time of the year. Midsummer was a relatively calm affair at our country house. Good company and tasty food. Even if the day was a bit delayed and the pickled herring lunch was ate at 5 pm and dinner at 12 pm. Well, these things happens. It felt really odd not to be cheering in snaps but had to resolve to fizzy drinks. The others drank for me, so it evened out really.
Some kubb, Trivial Pursuit and cards made the evening. Felt real grown up in some way. I'm beginning to realise it's really time to grow up, I'm going to be someone's mommy. In about six months time there is going to be another little person in my life, someone who is really dependent on me. Scary thought really...
Now I only have one week left before going on a 4 weeks holiday. It's going to be awesome to be off work for so long. I haven't been free for more than three weeks at a time since I left school!
