New singer to H.E.A.T

  Photo by Fredrik Etoall taken from the newspaper Expressen Today it became official. The new singer in H.E.A.T is Erik Grönwall. He won Sweden's Idol 2009 and is a great choice. He has the rockvoice and likes the music H.E.A.T does. See Erik sing Run to the Hills during the semifinal of Swedish IDOL (click on the link) Great performance. He's really a great artist and captures the audience. I'm so looking forward to the new lineup and I'm so very happy I have booked to go to Firefest in Nottingham. Probably one of the first gigs with them. Apart from this great news I can tell you that we had a wonderful afternoon and evening with my work at Värmdö. It's my predecessor who had invited us all to dinner at their countryhouse. And what a countryhouse it is! Just like my fantasyhome would look like. The first photo is from one of the houses overlooking part of the estate and in the background the Djuröbridge and the second photo is the sunset we had. Isn

I won!!

Do you remember I told you about the cooking kind of competition we have at work? Each of us cook for the others on Mondays and after a round everyone votes. We score from 0-10 points. This round I won :-) Did I tell you what I did? I called it a "Little crayfishparty" because all of the ingredients for a crayfishparty was there without having to peal the crayfishes yourself. It was pie with Västerbotten cheese and potatoe, which we have to go with the crayfishes. Then crayfishtails and shrimps and lots of dill. Then a wonderful salat made of salat, of course, tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, fetacheese, lemon and corn. Very good if I may say so myself. After that I had baked a kind of cookie with a crisp top.   It looked a bit like this but not quite because I didn't do individual pies and I also had a lot of salat but you get the idea. Tomorrow we are going to Värmdö to a party held by my predecessor. That should be nice :-)

Achilles'heel

Have you ever had a sore Achilles' heel? Then you know what I'm going through :-( I have had an inflammation since early December!! Despite steroidshots it's not well (it got better for a while) and last night was the worst so far. It hurt however I sat, laid or had my foot high. Even in bed it hurt so much I couldn't sleep. You know how it is when you slumber and when you turn the pain wakes you up. That's how it was last night. I can't even flex the foot and that is bad because I can't drive. It's the foot I speedcontrol with. I have contacted my doctor and have an appointment for 11.50 AM. Hasse will drive me :-) I'm even home from work today!! But I have to get well to Friday because then we, my work, are all invited to a party out on Värmdö by the sea. It's the woman I replaced who have invited us all and I really really want to go. So I better behave and hopefully my Dr Christer at Väsby läkargrupp can solve things for me. I have no new

Nottingham it is :-)

Yes, I will actually be going to Nottingham with my sister and I'm very excited about it. I have booked a flight from Arlanda to Heathrow and then train to Nottingham from London St Pancras Intl. I have to book a taxishuttle from Heathrow to St Pancras though but that I will do when it gets closer. The hotel where everyone is staying was of course full already so I booked at Hilton. Then I went to Tripadvisor and when I saw the photos and read the stories from that hotel I cancelled my reservation. Dirty, mould on windows and bathroom, bad views and not at all Hiltonstandard. So I booked at Crowne Plaza instead and hopefully it will be allright. It's closer to the venue and closer to the hotel where the others stay. I have been working now for two weeks already and it's fun. I really like it. This Monday it was my turn to cook for the others. I think I have told you about our "competition". Every Monday one of us cook for the others and then we got to grade the

Back to work

Yes, tomorrow my summervacation is over and I'm back to work. I'm actually looking forward to it and hopefully I will remember something of what I did before the leave. I mean I have only done the monthly once on my own :-) This autumn I will try not to get so involved with the Rheumatic association. I have noticed that I'm feeling much better now that I haven't been forced to deal with a lot of things since June I do feel more relaxed and content. I can't understand why people are so negative and why they won't help. I mean an association is their members not the board but it's only us, it feels like, that is organizing and fixing things for people to meet or to socialize but it's almost always only us that shows up. I'm rather fed up with that. I will make a last effort but if nothing change I'm afraid I don't have the strength to carry on. It's enough being sick myself but also having husband, son and Mother sick doesn't make it
