My birthday celebration was postponed from Friday until this evening so that Maya could join us. Jeanine prepared Swedish meatballs, mashed potatoes and broccoli for a wonderful family dinner which also included my nephew, John.

Unfortunately,  I was not treated so well on the soccer pitch this morning. My team suffered a real drubbing in a 0-5 loss to the current first-place team in the league. I had the only shot on goal of the entire match and managed to find the crossbar rather than the back of the net.
