Birthday week with BBQ

This week was Emil's birthday. He turned 26 and is my youngest!! How can I have a son of 26 and he's the youngest? It's quite hard to take in that it was 26 years ago.




He was my easiest one to deliver :-) It took just over 4 hours from the first contraction until he was out. It was the day of the Eurovision Final and I remember Johnny Logan won. Amongst others were Gente di Mare and Israel's Huppa Hulle Hulle hulle.

The day was just beautiful with sunshine (although they had predicted rain) and a temperature around + 25 :-) Long time since that happened.
Anyway we had BBQ and each of us did our own skewer. We had fillet of pig and beef, sausages spicy and not so spicy, corn, tomatoes, red onions, mushroms and meatballs. To that I served fresh dill boiled potatoes and a wonderful sallat with avocado, feta cheese, sallat, cucumbers, tomatoes and onions. It was truly a feast. Jonas and Mandy also came and we had a great time together :-)


I have also been on a board meeting with the Rheumatic association as we have a chairmen conference next weekend so we needed to prepare and decide the program for the days.

After that it's only one week until Prague :-)

I also visited my Mom today. She was very tired when I came and she never really snap out of that. I don't know but she almost looked as she was on some medication. Even when we sat drinking coffe and talking she almost feel asleep and that is not something she usually does. She usually will be happy and likes to talk (although we don't understand what she's saying) but not today. I hope she's more alert next time. One thing is that they have changed all personal where she lives and to do that with people with Alzheimers is not a good idea. They get confused and worried when their routines are changed.


I hope you all have a good week and take care!

BIRTHDAY, H.E.A.T, E.R and more...

Some of the wonderful flowers I got And some more Last week didn't start out well. On Monday I woke up and could hardly walk. I had such pain every step I tried to take. But off to work anyway. Tuesday even worse so I went to the doctor's office and asked to borrow crutches. Wednesday at work jumping on crutches, that must have been a sight ;-) But when I came home from work Wednesday I had fever so I went to bed quite early but didn't sleep well because of the constant pain. Thursday morning I woke up and had fever so I called the hospital and they said I had to go to the E.R. I hate that and if I can I always try to avoid it. But I was in so much pain I had to. I came and after a while they took bloodtests, urine and then I sat in a kind of smallish room. After being there for about 3 hours a doctor came and said I probably should see and orthopedic and not a medicine doctor. After one more hour another doctor came and said my bloodtest showed I had an i...

Recap of the week

This week meant a lot to do and I'm afraid I haven't taken the time to write here :-( But here's a recap of what has happened. Monday and Tuesday not very much but I was so, so tired and my joints does not like this weather at all. I have so much pain especially in my hands and fingers which makes it hard even to write here.  On Wednesday I went to Norrtälje to my good friend Anne for some treatment, which was very much needed, lots of chat and also a very good lunch. It's always a pleasure to see her and we have so much to talk about all the time. A true friend who I'm so grateful of having. Next day it was time for work and after that directly to the working committe in the Rheumatic association. Afterwards also meeting in the foundation, where we grant money to people who have applied, and fulfill the rules of the statues. When driving home again at night, it's so dark now and I hate driving in the dark, there was an accident with a big truck a...
