frualeydisToday is Vendela's and Valeria's twelfth birthday. They're not up yet, no-one is except me, and I'm only up because it hurts too much to sleep.
Their birthday present will be new bikes. Cheap bikes, because we're not very rich, due to me being unemployed and Rickard working in a supermarket. But they seem okay and they're new. The last bikes they had was when they were eight or so and has of course not been used for years. Now they're tall enough to have adult sized bikes so we won't have to buy new bikes in a couple of years.
We bought them on Hisingen, the island that part of Gothenburg is situated on. There is a large shopping centre there. Then we assembled them outside the shop and biked home on them. That was the only way to get them home, the boxes were too large to take on the trams. It is maybe 2 miles from here so it's not far, but Gothenburg is rather hilly. So I got some exercise yesterday.
