I woke up at 05:15 today. Yes. Family is still asleep. The only sound I hear is the laptop’s quiet humming. I am having a cappucino drink from a cup that says fantastische Moeder which my husband got me from Antwerp.

The university has sent me a course certificate that says “pass”. I don’t smell much because I have a terrible cold and my nose is all clogged up and I have an ear infection, but if I did smell something, then the air in the living room would smell of freshly ironed garments. Yes. This is where we do our ironing. And blogging.

Snow has melted. It is foggy.

When is the rest of the world going to wake up?
