Completely by coincidence this morning, I found a blog called How to learn Swedish in 1000 Difficult Lessons.
Today our apartment had no hot water. Luckily, there are only four people in the office and they all have colds so they can’t smell me. As further evidence of “you only get as much as you can handle,” today also turns out to be the first day in a week that I am able to function as a human being without a 20 minute hot shower.
Praise be and pass the antibiotics.
Oh and oatmeal with Lindor chocolate balls in it is very good. Apparently if you add salted, dried fish to the mix you have breakfast in the Philipines.
