Los Angeles, La Mirada, USA

Well, I'm here again. I haven't had time to write before but now I have a few moments. The flight was very good although I didn't have any time at London Heathrow. Just through ticketcheck through to security and then on to the pier which you had transfer to with an underground train. I got up to the pier and on to the plane immidietly. No turbulence whatsoever, good food, the new business seats were very comfortable. We landed on time and J and M met me at LAX. I was so happy to see them. It's been a year and I really misses them when in Sweden. It was warm and sunny and my socks went off at once. We have had lovely days since I came, warm and sunny and what I would call high summer temperatures. Here they call it spring. I enclose photos of the garden with the orangetree. Yummie oranges that are sweet and juicy. It's also strawberry season here and they are even better than the Swedish ones I can tell you. They are so sweet and really taste summer. We went down to Huntington beach on Sunday and it was a beautiful day (photo enclosed). I really enjoyed it. They also had this little market and I found a wonderful framed picture that I couldn't resist buying so now I need a new suitcase because it doesn't fit the ones I have :-( But I'm used to it. Everytime I go here I end up buying a suitcase so pretty soon we will have a big collection home.
Everything is so cheap here compared to home and I get a bit crazy when I see the prices.
Yesterday I spent at J's school because today is Open house so I helped her clean and prepare for that. I also read to the children. They are so cute but very noicy so after a day there I was completely washed out.
Now M and I are off to IKEA. Will write more later............

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...

That is we invite the H.E.A.T family including the guys, girlfriends, parents, siblings and other friends ;-) This year they could actually be here almost all of them.
