My eyes were really bad when I woke up this morning, but they're doing better now. I took a nice 2 hour nap after I put my eye gel in this morning, so they got some rest and some medicine and now they're finally starting to heal.

It was just me and Pauline all day today. We took Gustav to Kindergarten this morning and then drove straight into Frechen to go to the market. We were supposed to my 1 kilo of this certain type of fish, but it cost 18 Euro and I only had 16. That was fun, trying to find the words to explain that I want up to 16 Euro worth of fish. It wasn't too bad, though. At least I was awake enough this time to think in German. On the way home I asked Pauline if she was hungry and what she wanted to eat, and she said fish. I tried explaining to her that the fish was going to be for dinner and we couldn't eat it because it wasn't cooked. She didn't understand, and kept telling me that she didn't want anything but fish. I knew that it was the word "dinner" that was throwing her off, so I told her it was the English word for Abendessen, and that we couldn't eat the fish until dinner. I asked her if she understood and she said ja, so I asked her again, "Ok, Pauline, what's 'dinner'?" Her response: "Fishe!" She's so sharp!! I started laughing because it was just too cute. I just hope that she doesn't think dinner means fish.

Aside from our little trip into town, there really wasn't a whole lot going on today. Right now the kids are sleeping and Esther and Olaf are at the sauna to relax. I don't know what time they'll be back, but the sauna is open until midnight so they'll probably be there really late. At least the kids aren't giving me any problems tonight. Hopefully my eyes will be even better tomorrow morning, but we'll see.
