The day started well.

I received a text from my mom telling me she had good nights rest and eat two biscuits with an egg.

She also has less pain.

Friday afternoon looks to be a go, to pick her up from the hospital.

But then the day got worse....

The boss is nervous.

Guests are coming to our house this weekend and it's not clean enough.

I have learned not to fight this urge she has and just go with it.

It's a Brazilian thing. They are very neat.

So for 3 hours I cleaned the kitchen, living room, my office and hallway to the best of my abilities while Bianca was upstairs preparing the guestroom.

It's like the king and queen of England are coming for a visit.

I send Ezzy a text telling him what was going on and he said...'well don't do it for me, just get me a matress and some sheets without spunk stains and I'm happy'.

We laughed. I know....Men...such simples creatures.

He then told me that Rea spent some time cleaning the house too when we went there.

It seems this behavior transcends cultures.

When Bianca came downstairs my work was approved and I was looking for some rest but I could get none.

The car needed a cleaning!

"We can't pick them up in a dirty car."

So off I went to the car wash.

Driving there I actually realized it was not too bad.

Because in the Netherlands we have carwashes were girls wash your car by hand.

I'm lying we have none of those things. But it was great none the less because I didn't have to do anything for an hour.

This what it looks like.

I sat in the shop while sipping coffee and relaxing while my car got the VIP treatment. A wax and a total cleaning inside of the car.

Looks perfect to me. I drive a Second-Hand ford focus btw. It gets the job done. It's the second car I ever owned. The first time I got a car for myself I was 27.

When I got home I was more relaxed. I called Bianca because we had to get a surprise something for Ezzy.

When she saw the car she was very happy!

Tonight we finished everything together and are now ready to receive our beloved guests.

All joking aside. I am truly looking forward to seeing them again. They are awesome people.

Bianca and I are going to chill now. Open a bottle of red and watch something nice.

We deserve it.
