Another type of weekend

At the beginning of this week I was so excited about this weekend, so many plans!

In my town, there is a special event, called Laternen Fest (the lights celebration) which gathers so many people from the region. It is like a fair, with fun events, lots of amazing food and a great atmosphere.

Then one of my great friends has birthday today and her parties are always amazing!

But ...

Sadly Peter is sick, very very sick. He started with 39 degrees fever and he ended up at 41 degrees. Friday evening he was so cold, he was freezing and since then the fever doesn't seem to want to leave him be. I called the emergency doctor, got some medicine and the fever is droping but not as much as I wish for. He is very weak, and without any apetite. And I worry ... I feel helpless, and I don't know what to do. I cancelled all the planes and I watch him.

Since I cannot just lay around and do nothing, and since I have not much apetite I did 2 dips which I highly recommend. With chips or toast, very delicious! Avocado dip and roasted garlic and beans dip!



Now back to my reading (Bucay) and to my hope for his speedy recovery!

Motto

"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
