There was a hailstorm today. A btief one. Five-ten minutes. The skies opened and it hailed like I have rarely seen it hail. I couldn?t figure out what it was at first, because it?s springtime you know, and it had been a nice and sunny day for the most part. Suddenly I heard stuff banging against my windows. At first I actually thought the kids outside were throwing pebble at my window or something. But it just kept going.<\/p>\n
It has stopped now. But there is still the occasional roar of thunder in the distance. Maybe it?s raining outside. When I went shopping earlier today in the sunshine I actually thought to myself that it would be nice if we could get some rain and I could take a walk in it. The hailstorm was a little too heavy for walkies, though.<\/p>\n
Other than that there is nothing new. I am waiting to hear from the hospital. About my ?urgent? appointment. My dad called them on Friday to ask if anything was happening. They said I?d get a letter one of the next days. Let?s hope my eyesight doesn?t completely disappear while we wait for the urgent appointment. It?s getting harder and harder to read the computer screen. I keep saying that, but I keep managing anyway. I am afraid that one of these days I will no longer be able to manage. But I guess as long as I can stumble through the words letter by letter then I?ll keep doing it. What am I without a computer? It?s hard to imagine having to live a life without using computers. What was it they said in the dinosaur movies? Life will find a way.<\/p>\n
I have had computers forever. I think one of my earliest memories must be driving late at night with my dad to go pick up a used Commodore 64 we found in the paper. That was back when we still had a car. One of the first games I ever played was park Patrol. That theme brings back memories. That was one of the cassettes that came with the C64. I remember that game so well because it was one of my mother?s favourites of the bunch. And it always annoyed me so much because I wanted the computer to myself! No fair that I had a mother and brother who wanted to use it too. Those were the days.<\/p>\n
In other entertainment news, yesterday I watched a recent episode of Craig Ferguson where he had a couple of Danes in his audience. Which resulted in quotes about Denmark like these:<\/p>\n
?I?m very popular in .. Dan..ish?
\n?That was a big hit in Dan..ish..land?
\n?Hello people from Dane..marks?.
\n?it?s kinda like Narnia or something?<\/p>\n
I love that Scttush Conan-guy.<\/p>\n
And that?s all for now.<\/p>\n

Hail storm! I don?t like hail. I?ve been in a car when it has hailed and also in a schoolbus (when I was a kid). Neither one is a good place to be as the hail sounds really loud when it hits the metal.<\/p>\n
We haven?t had to rescue any more baby birds. Although we did find a mouse and babies in the car glove box! Yuck. The babies were removed and the mother mouse is still in the car with a mouse trap baited with peanut butter.<\/p>\n
I have to drive the car today (with the mouse still in it) as we haven?t caught it yet!

I just e-mailed you some pictures my uncle sent to me. Some I?ve seen before, but some I haven?t. I don?t usually forward stuff, but thought you?d like these.<\/p>\n
I like the leaping lambie! Cute animal pictures to brighten your day.

Debster – I hope you have made friends with the mouse by now! Or alternatively caught it. Just be careful the goats don?t get a whiff of the peanut butter, you?ll end up catching goats instead of mice.
\n Thank you for the pictures, there were some beautiful shots in there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
