Happiness


I do happy, because I got a message an Facebook group who share lots of old pictures of our beautiful town. Few years ago I made two videos and I mixed old pictures with a new ones. That was very popular on the group and thousand people watched it. I was happy too that time. So, they wrote a message today night and ask, when do I a new video? They can't wait for it. I feel very good myself because I’m just a migrant here and they appreciated my creativity. This is a happiness, I think.
Here is the videos:

One moment of my job

Today was the first time, when I washed on  a died woman. 
She was in our Nhome a month.She had a cancer. Sometimes, when her room was in my section, talked with her. Very quiet woman was she. She has a big family who always came and visited her. Sometimes were been too much, because she couldn’t rest. Her body was very athletic. I asked her one day, has she had any sport in her lifetime. She said yes, she loved hockey. I very wondered, because hockey is not a womany sport. And she died today early morning. Her family came when we  recognised, she has a very bad condition, and half hour later she passed away. My colleague asked me and my friend, can we help her  wash the body and take a clean clothes on her. One of the moment was just there, when felt myself uncomfortable, when my collleague started talk to the death woman, like when we wash our patients. “So my sweetheart can you turn over please, I wash your back. Come back to the middle, please. We are finish in a minute” 
Just looked at my friend, and we don’t say anything. I survived.

Fly to my homecountry

I'm so excited! Few days ago I saw  my teacher's post on FB . She posted that the 4Oth anniversary of my old school. I was there on 3Oth anniversary. I met lots of old school mate, friend. And three years later I left Hungary, changed my life and start a big adventure here. When I read the post, I was a bit sad, because  I was been on Hungary 5 years ago. I did not need too much push, and I bought a flying ticket for the next Thursday. My friend was happy, when I write her a message, and she said, she collect me in airport and I can sleep her home, and we can go together the party on friday. I'm nervous a bit, because I will fly alone, and I hope everything gonna be alright. I think that will be  a very funny three days. But, now I need to swap with my colleague few off days, and I need to work very hard, because, I think 8 days I will work without off day.  So, next Thursday, I will fly!

When the Notre Dame...

When my mother's died, and I had get my heritage, I wanted to spend that on something memorable. I could have paid a few bills, but it would have been a drop in the sea. So, we travelled in Paris and we walked along the Seine River, we went up to the top of the Eiffel tower, we look at the wonders of Louvre, and we lit a candle in Notre Dame. That was Spring of the 2007.
Today I took the CD with that pictures. My heart broken when I saw the graceful tower, the  wood carvings and sculptures.  I will never see this in live again, as it was built 850 years ago, and now is gone...
But, it makes me feel good, that EUR 850 million has been raised for reconstruction. Private person, jewish, muslims, atheist, black and white donated for that.  I think, is heart warming.

The 9O years old lady, who dreams about men

She born in England in 1929.
When she married with an Austrian man, they moved in Austria. In 60's she moved with her family in Canada,  because her husband was a businessman. When her son came in an European university (in France) they moved back England. Few years ago her husband died and she left alone. Her son stayed in France and married an french woman. So she left alone and try to survive without family. She had a stroke and her half body can not works now. She can't swallow well, and the walk and talk are very difficult for her. When she arrived on this room, she was very quiet, but few days later she felt herself much comfortable and she gonna be a bossy old woman. Nobody liked her and she didn’t like anyone. But she very liked me, because I was always cheerful and I tried talking with her and she had a very good, and a bit sarcastic humor. She loves men! When I went in her room, she ask me: have any man patient here? But we had just one, and he was on first floor, and she was in the third floor. We had a man sister, in the night shift. Honestly, he was a bit ugly, bald and bearded, and moreover he was a gay, but She wasn't interested these little things. She loved him, and tried to talking with him (when he brought her bedpan) about what is his current relationship with. 
She was a drama queen, and she knew when she need to play a poor, old and disabled woman. She wanted to stay our nursing home, but the NHS can not pay for her, just cca 2 month. They came and checked how can she walk and managed herself sometimes. Well, she needed to leave our home, when they thought, she is better. One day she visited a residential care home, and she heard a man, who sang a song there. I like that house, because that man. She told me the next day. But I will miss you... No one was sorry, that She left the house on the next Wednesday, just me

My english

Sometimes I'm funny, I think. But I don't want to be funny, just my english is not perfect. That is why born this blog, about my english language. Seven years ago I came from my home country (not important, why). I was housekeeper in a hotel, but I could not learn english, because I had seven Polish colleague, and my supervisor was a Portuguese witch. But, I changed my job, learned a new profession, and one year was enough to expand to my vocabulary.
I wish, one day I can write a small novels, like on my language. Until then, I will not be any other, just a funny woman. (now I also catch the correct words from the dictionary)
My colleague are very kind, and so many times laugh on me, because I can not find the right word for something. An example:  I can't found a pen (because the visitors need to sign a book, when they come in the building), so I went one of my colleague and I said "I can not find a pen, do you know where is it?"  But, she can not understood. She told me: "Check in this room, maybe there is the pan, if you want" I tried to explain what I'm looking for, but she just a third time understood what I want. Or, break time in the dining room: "I can't see anything, because a tree on my eye... >D" They fluttered their knees with laughter...  I'm not insulting, I laughed with them. I try to cheerful there, but... at home I'm a dragon, sometimes.
