Soon.......

Only 1 day left, not counting today until we go. I know I shouldn't have such high expections because I risc getting dissapointed but I don't think anything could get me dissapointed now. If things aren't up to the standard or something else lacks it doesn't matter because I will still be having my very well deserved rest and H too of course. If someone needs it more than me it's him who has tackled his disease, since October 1 last year, that no one seems to know what it is. I did very early on, in December, suggested that it was something rheumatic but the doctors weren't on my side then but now they are and they have referred him to a rheumatic ward for evaluation and diagnose (that is when we come home).

My fair lady
I told you I was going to see the first public rehearsal of My fair lady and that I had been given one free ticket from SJ (our public railroad in Sweden) but what I didn't know was the wonderful party this was. When we arrived we walked into the theatre on the red carpet with torches around. Well inside we were given champagne and different dainty sandwiches and we were entertained by a singer and musicians.
The musical and the performers were great especially the first act. I love Helen Sjoholm who does the lady. Her voice is exeptional. Her Higgins is played by Tommy Korberg also an extremely gifted singer. And then there was Jan Malmsjo who had the role as Elizas father and how he did it. So wonderfully gifted.
In the interval we were served coffee, drinks and chocolate.
After the show when we went out each and everyone of us was given a flower, a carnation.
Thank you SJ for this wonderful evening.

O's birthday
Yesterday we went to celebrate O's birthday. He turned 76 and I had bought cakes and we had a lovely coffeetime with all the elder and cakes. They really seemed to appreciate it. We also sang for O and he looked very happy. In fact he looks better than in years. He has put on some weight and has a glimpse in his eyes now that hasn't been there for a long long time.

WOW!!! I just have to say Wow!

Why do you ask? I just got a mail telling me that I have won a romantic trip to Paris for 2! I enrolled in this competition, last year, which was to write a slogan and I had forgot all about it when the mail came. I didn't remember it even then so I had to go to the site and see what it was :-) I'm so happy! and so is Hasse :-) We had a great Easter which started with a wonderful ballet, Giselle, at the Royal Opera with my friend Carina. We are going again tomorrow to see Puccinis Turandot :-) The next day Easter Day we went to Gavle and this time we actually stayed at a hotel, Elite Grand hotel. A newly opened hotel, March 1, where we had the executive suite. What a suite! I have to show you some photos. One of the best suites I've ever stayed in!   The suite taken from the "living-room area"  From the "cosy" area with wood burning stove   Our "little" bathroom with green marble Part of the bedroom What do yo...

Christmas gift

For Christmas I got a giftcard to Amazon.com from my sister Jo. It was a real treat to go to the site, explore and find something to buy. There are so many things there and it's hard to choose. For me, leaving in Sweden, it's a bit easier. I just cross the square that says "ships to Sweden" and I get all the things I can order. My choice was Bliss socks and a big bottle of Dermalogica body cream. They came today and I'm so happy. So once again a big thank you big sis for the generous gift.  

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...
