This is the upside down world nowadays. We haven't any snow, yet, but they have just two hours away from us. It fell 24 cm the last days. That's crazy. We do have a low temperature and it has been around 4-5C. This is a very big contrast to California's sun and temperatures I can tell you. I hope it will get better but on the other hand, by experience, I know that other years when it has been nice and warm in spring especially May it has always been followed by a disaster summer so hopefully we will have a nice and warm summer this year :-).
This weekend we had J for dinner on Friday which was nice. He isn't home eating that often. Yesterday we went with our good friends J and K to a Chinese restaurant for dinner. It was their birthdaygift for H and this is a very nice tradition I think. Anyway an excellent meal followed by coffe and whiskey (for H not for me since I drove) and Sweden's hockeygame against Finland of bronze medal which Sweden sadly lost. I really love them both. We have been friends for 25 years and it's so nice when we meet. We have been through a lot together and you don't have to pretend in front of them. It's a warm feeling and so natural. I'm glad to have such wonderful friends as I have. Not only them but all my true friends are like that. I don't know how to express it but one way is like it feels like home, if you know what I mean.
Tomorrow is a new week and it's Eurovision Song contest week which I love. But now I think maybe it has gone too far. This year it's 43 entries!!! 43!! So they have to have 2 semifinals before the final on Saturday. This is not funny anymore. I have heard almost everyone and some of them are awful and should never have been entered. As usual the eastern countries will vote for their own so probably one of those countries will win. Maybe it's time to separate the competition and make two Eurovision song contests. One Eastern and one Western. Our tast for songs are so different I think and what is a hit in for instance Albania is probably not a hit in Sweden and vice versa. Still I will probably look at it as usual and get dissapointed as usual but that is also a tradition. I wish someone like ABBA or Carola would win again.
Tomorrow I'm taking Mom to her memory training so I have better go to bed now and get some rest.
My happy moment today? I really don't know but I suppose sitting down and having a nice dinner together with H and E is a happy moment although I cooked it myself.
This photo is from IKEA in West Covina, California. Do you see the Californian flag, the Swedish and American flag. This IKEA could as easily have been in Barkarby except for the weather but inside it was just like any other IKEA store so if you have been to one you know exactly where things are. That's funny and good.
OK now I have to go to bed. Sleep well and sweet dreams.

I watched some of the Eurovision, so the Russian guy won, it was as you said..east votes for east, west for west. The Russion singer should have sang in Russian, his english was not good lol.
SvaraRaderaWhere is H.E.A.T when we need them ;)
I totally agree with you, anonym, his English was awful.
SvaraRaderaH.E.A.T would have won the whole thing :-)
