This post used to contain pictures, but due to new storage limitations from WordPress, I had to fix the problem and decided to create a new blog that works as an archive for all the posts from my two years in California. This full post can be found here.

Under these last two weeks I have experienced three out of four (maybe five) different kinds of weather; biting cold, normal warmth, and rain. The only thing missing is hot summer and maybe hail. That doesn’t happen often, but it can. I’ve heard that it only rains for ten days every year, let’s see if that is true.

This day was much like the other. It feels like I’ve started to get a routine already. I haven’t figured out yet when I will eat breakfast. There are three options; before the kids eat (which means that I have to get up like 6:40), at the same time I’m prepairing the kid’s breakfast and lunch boxes and emptying the dishwasher, or after at 9 am while doing A’s. homework. I’ve tried the last two options so I think I’m gonna try to get up earlier tomorrow and eat in peace and quiet.

In my afternoon I went to the gym with Lizzie. I ran on the treadmill even though my calves still hurt. They are hard like rocks now and are really sore. But I’m not doing as usual and give up. I will try and see if the pain eventually will fade if I just keep this up!

We focused on core and upper body today and it felt good to walk around looking like question marks together instead of alone. Many machines are the same as in Sweden, but it’s a little werid with pounds instead of kg. But I don’t think it will take long until I understand it!

After I picked up the kids I’ve been sitting in the couch with A watching DisneyChannel. I have had stomach pains like I don’t know this week and I hope it will go away soon, when I have adjusted to the bacterial flora or something. Maybe I’m allergic to something? Horrible thought… It wasn’t puring down, but it was definitely raining, and 70F (20C).
