Computer problems

I don't know why, but there has been some strange problems with the web page that the last picture was posted on. I might have solved it, but can't know for sure until somebody who's not sitting by my computer checks it out. So, if you try, can you see the picture now?

I'm awake because of pain. I woke from contractions that hurt, but they have gone away now. Instead my whole face hurts from the sinusitis, my ears and teeth on the left side are just killing me. My arthritis is also having a great time, lots of pain in my right shoulder, my neck, my ribcage, my hands and my legs keeps my definitely awake. I have to wait at least an hour before I can take stronger painkillers so I guess I'll stay here in front of the computer.

Nothing

After having contractions that actually hurt (but not much) most of the night I lost another small piece of the mucus plug. Apart from that nothing has happened. I slept 3 hours in all during the night, but then I got two hours more before noon.
Then Rickard, I and the girls walked to a large supermarket about a kilometre away and bought some pots for my plants, a bucket for diapers and a new ironing board. Yesterday my very cool 50s ironing board broke so I had to get a new one. The new has several advantages over the old:
It's height, I don't have to bend over a 70 cm high board anymore which definitely will be good for my back.

There's no asbestos on it, which the old one had in one end, where you should place the warm iron.

But it's much uglier.

The absurd thing was that when I actually believed labour might be starting in the middle of the night I was also thinking "But then I won't be able to buy a new ironing board tomorrow".
As if the lack of an ironing board is something that would be a big issue after the baby is born. I'm not likely to start any new sewing projects the first week, right?

The girls went to their father today so that I wouldn't have to wake him in the middle of the night to pick them up if it starts tonight. Next week the are going to be with him and his wife anyway.

A dress I want to make

Here is a late 15th century dress, from a polish manuscript, that I want to make. Isn't it lovely, with a gigantic "mushroom hat" as we lovingly call them among my friends.

PS. Hope this works, I haven't solved the general web site problem yet, but I'm trying to work around it instead.
