Monday and a new week

I promised to tell you more about my father and sister but yesterday I was so tired so instead I had a lazy day after our grandchildren had left. It has really been too much lately with my parents ill and in hospital. It gets to you and also the conversations I have had with doctors. Each time a new doctor and new nurse. It seems to be getting in the right direction for Mom at least. Today when I spoke with the nurse he said that she had responded to the antibiotics and if the progress continues she can go back to the short timehome tomorrow. O will stay at the hospital at least until next week.

Today when I drove home from work I was so happy. The sun was shining, the radio played good music and I was thinking about J and the bands album release. It's fantastic that it's just 1 year ago they merged together from two bands and created H.E.A.T. They have a very good and skilled manager in HK who has helped them a lot.
I have decided that I will try to write down my "happy moment" of the day so the positive take over the negative and this was my happy moment of today. Just driving in the sunshine with good music and positive thoughts.

I always think I have more time than I have and I really thought I had the time to write today but I don't because I am so tired. I'm sorry but I have to continue this another day. Tomorrow I'm going to my friend A in Norrtalje for lunch, chat and treatment. We usually do this once a month and this makes me feel better and I really enjoy our conversations and her company. But when I come back from her I'm usually dead tired and I suppose I will have an early night.

So nighty, nighty and think about your "happy moment" of the day.

Anyone??

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.

Oh my God

The Christmas smorgasbord I just realized I haven't written anything since November 23! But I can tell you I haven't been lazy but there has been so much going on that I haven't had the strength to write. I had meetings that week and I was supposed to be at a conference hotel for lunch that Friday but I was to tired I had to cancel it. So instead I baked safron buns (!) and made chocolate troufles with ginger.  The ferry On December 1 it was Staffan's birthday (Hasse's oldest son) and I worked and worked at my job. Thursday I and Hasse were supposed to go to the theatre and see Come again Charlie, which was one of my birthday presents - thank you Pär and Brita. But Hasse wasn't feeling well so instead I asked Linnea, my bonus grand daughter if she wanted to go and she was very happy that I asked. We had a really good time and the play, which was a comedy, was funny but also with a message which made you laugh and then stop. It was about the si...

Sad day

Tonight Olle, my adoptive father that has been like my father almost all my life, died just before 9PM. It was very quick. I talked to the nurse at 6PM and everything was calm then. Just a bit over 2 hours later she called and said he's gotten worse. I asked how and she said his skin changed colour and that he could have 10 minutes or 10 hours left. I was just trying to get to my sister on the phone and ask her if we should go down when the phone rang again just 15 minutes afterwards and it was the nurse telling me that it was over. He went very peacefully and in his sleep. At the end he was given a lot of morphine so he wouldn't be in pain, which he wasn't. I called my sister but we both felt that we already had said our goodbyes and therefore didn't go down to say a last goodbye. He is probably up there somewhere looking down and sensing our feelings. We haven't been able to reach our mother yet and we probably won't tonight so I will tell her when I go there ...
