SvenskaA week ago since I wrote. I have been busy and also, I am waiting for my new website. This week I finally got my books. I am very happy about the covers, and the photos are taken by me. Photograpy is one of my hobbies. I wish I could paint, but I cannot. However, playing with colours, brightness etc gives some satisfaction. It is a way of expressing myself. But, of course, I will, some day have a course in learning advanced photo settings. Sharper pictures.
I am waiting for a text message.
Finally, I have donated blood for the very first time. It started by that I felt sorry for one of my characters in the book, and that made me think about my own blood group. I went to the blood center and made a health declaration. Then I had to wait a few weeks for the results. Unfortunately, I had a cold, and therefore I had to wait a little longer for blood donation.
I learnt that I belong to the most common blood group, namely A with presence of the Rh + antigen. Men and women donate the same amount of blood, but women cannot donate blood as often as men do. I did this on a day off since I didn’t know how I would feel afterwards. I didn’t feel anything, only a little pain in my arm. Now I am waiting for a text message with information that someone has used my donation. I will only get a text if it is in Stockholm or Dalarna county. This kind of service is used in Canada as well.
Currently, I am trying to find a balance between exercise and healthy food. That is difficult. Slowly, I have started with my own home made food. And that is the best. Cooking has been a great interest in my life, and still is. Sometimes, I have these cravings, like yesterday. Dessert for dinner. Pancakes with strawberries and cream. Something only women can understand I suppose?
