Dyeing and Midsummer

Nothing much new. Grandmoms funeral is next month on the same day we'd have a party here for a couple of friends, but I need to go to the funeral. Of course I'll go. Tarmo might come too.

Last weekend we went to Harbors Night and Sira went to wrestle. It was hilarious!



We'll go to Tarmos parents cottage next weekend to celebrate Midsummer. There will be 10 people. Kitties will go to Tarmos mom. Can't wait!

I shot some pics of this family and they'll pay me for that! I still should do some work for them but I haven't got the time. I already worked with my cell pics several hours today. I did some dyeing and got some dim results. I'll use stronger concentrations tomorrow.

This pic isn't informative but pretty. I had to learn all by my self how to make these pics from BW pics. It took few hours too last night. But now I know how to do it!

My day rhythm is funny. I've always been able to wake early but now I'm up until midnight and all tired at morning (I still wake up every day at 7 am). But I'll fix that starting next week. I'll try to invert my day schedule as much as I can. Then it'll be easier to go to US and (I hope) then the jet lag won't be that terrible. Eight hours backwards. I'd be happy to make even few hours change.

But we'll go to BBQ and chat about next weekend at our back yard.

Miracle!

Oh this just can't be true!!!
Grandmom will survive. They were injecting contrast matter in her and the blockage opened!!! Mom said she's live and kicking. Muaha. My super grandmother!

But now the issue is where she'll stay. She can't live alone anymore without constant supervision. I think she'll be hospitalized and that would be good. She's still weak but won't die in a days.

I can't do nothing but laugh. If someone survives from intestinal blockage, thats grand mom. It almost killed my mom and she was young and healthy then!

I just can't believe this. Unbelievable.

Now I'm in a good mood again.

And my apoptosis test worked well! NOW the dying went well and we got perfect pics. If only I just hadn't messed up with the concentrations, they would be perfect. Though I'll do them anyway again, the nanotubes will be needed to solve in some solvent we haven't figured out yet. And I played with my cells today in a such a way that I don't need to wake up at 4am next week when we need to leave at 9am to party midsummer into Tarmo's cottage.

And I went through my closets today because we'll reserve a table from a flea market to sell our stuff. I marked these words into my brain "Lose everything you can't remember when you have worn them last time, you'll get new ones from US". Muaha.

Super!

Grandmother

Grandmom is dying.

She got hospitalized last weekend because hes intestine got blocked up. She has the hospital bacteria so there will be no surgery. And even if there would be, she wouldn't survive. She's after all almost 100 years old (97 if I remember correctly). Mom says she won't last longer than three days.

I'm sad. Yet I feel that there will be better place for her. She got bitterer and nastier every year (she lived through war and her husband chased her with a knife around their house, so I don't wonder her moods) and she can't see or hear very well anymore. Not to mention the hallucinations she got. She didn't recognize her kids or other relatives and saw maggots in her ceiling and dead man in the backyard (and rats in the closet).

We thought that she had died already last time she had pneumonia but she survived from that. I cried a lot so I guess that's why I don't cry now. At least now. And I can't understand this yet.
