Planting, partying, visiting and relaxing day

Sunday sure was a busy day. First I went with my mother and bought a little juniper bush and some flowers to plant on my father's grave. We picked up my sister Steingerður, who actually has garden tools, and went to the graveyard. Steingerður did most of the planting, thus getting the most dirt on her clothes. After we finished the grave looked so much better. Forgot to take a picture, will do that later. When we were leaving, Hilda spotted some horses in a nearby field and we stopped to allow her to greet them. She became very popular when she fed them grass, the grass always being greener on the other side :-) Then Steingerður invited us over to her house where we had coffee and some goodies. My sister Magga also stopped by with my niece Guðlaug. Next stop was a summerparty held at Rjóðrið, a resting hospice for children with long term illnesses and disabilities. My support-son Steingrímur stayed there some days last month and will visit again this summer. Júlíana and her family picked me up and we went there together. The facility was great, good to see how much is done for the children there. We got some refreshments and listened to a former Idol contestant sing. Miss World showed up and posed for a picture with Steingrímur (a.k.a. Mr. Universe) :-). After leaving Rjóðrið we went to visit Júlíana's mother. There we had coffee and more goodies, this really was a day of high calorie intake ! The family then dropped me off at home after a good time together. So nice to meet the little guy, I miss him ! The evening was spent relaxing in the company of my friend Sigrún. We took a trip down memory lane after seeing the first episode of the Melrose Place re-run ! The show is the predecessor of other "quality" shows like O.C., One Tree Hill etc. YUK ! Well, after an eventful day and a lot of coffee, I can't sleep ! I have a doctor's appointment in the morning, some x-rays will be taken and some bloodtests. I'll then finish off with a bone density test. Must...get...sleep !
