Happy 2012 everyone ! Let’s hope it’s not the end of the world this year

I had a great New Year’s celebration. Arwen, Bouw and Annelies came over and we had a nice evening. Bouw gave me a hand painted D&D Cleric figurine which is awesome. I’ll use it tomorrow for sure during our monthly session ! Other than that the food was awesome, there were fireworks (which surprisingly didn’t wake up Finn) and we had good fun

Talking about celebrations, last Monday was Finn’s first birthday. It goes so fast ! It was a nice party. Both Katrien’s and my folks came over for cake and the Dark Lord got to wear a crown, it suited him well He also got a lot of presents, including a Fisher Price car garage from Katrien and myself which he used to push around for support while walking, funny to see I’ve uploaded some pictures here.

Then for some bad news, one my eardrums has ruptured again. It happened the same way as last time, just a plain common cold but the canal to my ear got stuck so the eardrum ruptured because of the pressure and I was deaf on one side. It’s better now, I can hear things, but it’s gone downhill a bit again since last Thursday. Before then I thought it was almost completely healed even. I’m going to the doctor on Tuesday, so I’m hoping for good news for the USA trip which is rapidly approaching and hope it doesn’t cause any issues there. Keep them crossed for me !
