This cold refuses to let go, but at least I am getting a little better for every day. The worst thing at the moment is the headache but it will go away when it decides to do so... The best thing is to try not to think about it and as long as it stays like this, I can cope.

After a week inside the house, I had a look in the garden today, and saw that there are three daffodils blooming. I also discovered that the flowers I had planted in pots a couple of weeks ago are dead, surely because they did not get watered for over a week... I will replace them with somehting new when the sun is back. It feels like autumn here at the moment, and it is not at all very warm, so I have no inspiration to do any gardening right now.

We have a birthday in the family today, and I have made a Swedish smörgåstårta, as requested!
