A New Year ahead..


A new Year lies ahead. So much to look forward to, so much that is happening. I'm not much for New Year's resolutions because you tend to break them very soon ;-). But I have one and that is to write this blog - one reason is to share my day to day life with my family in USA and the other reason being I want to share my son's band H.E.A.T and their journey this year. So much is happening right now with them.

They signed a record contract with Peter Stormare's record company, Stormvox, last year and they recorded their first album last year and it was finished in December. In February J, my son, is going to LA to mix it together with Michael Blum and hopefully the album will be out in stores beginning of March.
Their music, which is mostly written by J, D and K, is a melodic hard rock and I love it. I'm not alone. We are many fans waiting for their debut album.
Their biggest gig yet is when they last year were opening act for TOTO in Umea, Sweden. Me, H and E went there and it was a magic night.

Another big thing for me this year is that I'm going to Los Angeles in April to see my sister J and hopefully some other members of my family there. I will tell you another day how we as grown ups found each other thanks to internet.

This year I will also attend University to become licensed account economist, an education which my employer are paying. Thank you for that :-)

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 ...
