September post

 
Windy and grey

 Last I wrote it was August and summer. Now we have September and it's autumn! Well, the temperatures are some day quite decent but others, huuh, it really feels cold. We have had a lot of rain as well but I like this. Autumn is my favorite time of the year. The leaves are shifting in different colors from green, to yellow, read and more. It's beautiful. The air is fresh and easy to breathe.

What have I been up to then since last? 

Well,  a whole lot.  Hasse and I went on a luxury cruise (still one of my 60th birthday gifts) with extra all. Fantastic suite cabin, VIP treatment all the way which meant going onboard before everyone else, having a VIP lounge etc. So nice. The trip was very calm and by that I mean the sea.

I went to my sis to have my teeth checked, and yes she is a dentist
Then we celebrated Mandy on August 29.
I went to see my doctor to have a certificate so I can renew my handicap parking permit and at the same time got my B12 shot.

After work, relax

Gorgeous morning with beautiful views from my room
On the first weekend of September I went on a boardmeeting conference at Torpa Inn and conference in Sodertalje. Very good 2 1/2 days where we had a lot done.
The following week we had budget meeting to set the budget for 2016 and 2017. It isn't easy as we don't get the grant we have asked for.
Waiting for the concert to start

Viktoria and Daniel in the Phantom medley
 Last Friday I went to a concert in St Erik's chuch in Sollentuna. A concert that my friend Viktoria Tocca had arranged and performed in together with Daniel Sjöberg and Mikael Litwold. A great concert with many of my favorite songs among them a Phantom of the Opera medley. Viktoria did Christine for 2 years in Copenhagen.
And again
The same day, earlier of course, I went for my mamogram and I can tell you I don't have breast cancer. I just got the result yesterday

On Saturday Jonas ran the Stockholm half marathon and how he ran!! He aimed for 1.40 and he finished at 1,40,15! 15 seconds over. Isn't that just great?? I'm so proud of him. It is 21,1 km. So no walk in the park

Dinner - lasagna

On Sunday we celebrated my birthday since Jonas went to Tokyo on my birthday and that was the only day I could gather all my boys as well as my sister Helen. We had a lovely time and we chatted for many fun hours.I love to have them all with me

Cake which says Congratulations Mia
On my actual birthday I treated my co-workers to a applecake with butterscotch served with whipped cream with added ginger and vanilla. Very good. 

My beautiful sister Helen
And yesterday me and Hasse went to this mansion, Såstaholm, which isn't far from us really. Just a 15 minutes ride by car. This was also one of my 60th gifts and we had a wonderful room overlooking the Vallentuna lake. Såstaholm used to be a retirement home for actors and actresses and was then called Autumn sun, But in 1978 they closed and after a couple of years they opened as a conference facility and nowadays you can also stay here as private guest for instance on weekends.

Dressing room

Clothes, costumes, wigs and hats en masse

Coffe cups in a new way

Hasse likes the enviroment and the company

This was really yummie, circulated egg with truffle oil and some other stuff

Me

Cod in a wonderful way

Dessert was ice cream, berries and pannacotta

Hasse and I played some table shuffleboard after dinner. Who do you think won?
 But the theatre is in the walls here. And in the basement there is a Klondyke for people who likes masquerade or just dress up. There are a lot of theatre clothes, wigs, hats you name it it's there and as a guest you are welcome to use it. Next door to this wardrobe is the karakoe bar where you can stay all night if you want. The parties here doesn't end until 5AM.... Hasse and I, however, went to bed much earlier than that after a wonderful dinner. 

Breakfast

Breakfast is equally gorgeous and in fact awardwinning

Peter and his wife Toshimi. A lovely couple. Me and Helen before the show. LADIES NIGHT Yesterday me and my sister H went to Uppsala to see Ladies night. Have you ever been on one you know what I'm talking about. For you others who haven't yet experienced this I can tell you it's 2500 women and 0 men in the au dience. But on stage there is only men and what men!! One goodlooking guy after another. When we arrived we had champagne and white wine and different kinds of shellfish which wasn't that good but we ate and drank and had fun. For dessert we had a wonderful chocolatecake with raspberrysauce. During dinner Daniel Da Silva taught us to dance Marengo and Disco from the 80s. A lot of fun when everyone stood up and danced. After that a songcompetition and singalong. Finally at 9 the main event. Peter Stormare, Martin Stenmarck and Henrik Hjelt entered the stage. A 2 hour show with full steem all the way. Lots of sex hints of course but also ver

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.

Sibbarpsrevyn, Ballon dance and conference

My sister Jo sent me this link to a very funny performance by Sibbarpsrevyn. How she can find this in LA I don't know ;-) Watch and enjoy :-) Sibbarpsrevyn   I will send something right back to her and that is our famous "The Ballon dance" The original was with Lars Åberg, Sven Melander and one other which I don't remember. They performed in a TV-show called Nöjesmaskinen "The Enterteinment machine" and was so funny. This version which I found on youtube is from a show called Diggiloo that performs outdoors in the summer all over Sweden. And as you can see we have this wonderful summer weather here ;-) This was, I think, 3 years ago and we must have had a very rainy summer. Watch this, enjoy and tell me what you think :-) Ballongdansen Otherwise I have been on the chairmen conference today and I'm so very tired but it was so good and give so much but now I'm just going to enjoy the rest of the weekend, be lazy and chill ;-)
