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.

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.

Hello December

This month started with a tax education, yeah :-) in Uppsala. Since we don't have a goverment yet due to the chaotic political scene after the election, no one actually knows what's going to happen with taxes. It's just guesses. The day after we had Christmas celebration at the Rheumatic district of Stockholm. It was a lot of fun, good food and nice to meet everyone :-) And on Saturday it was time for Christmas lunch with my own Rheumatic local association. We were around 30 members incl. Eddie and Mandy. We had a lot of good food and we had the party at a local hotel here in Väsby in Bredden. There were two other children there so I bought them each a Christmas gift and they were very happy for what they got from the Rheumatic Santa Claus. Me decorating a board member with a honoray sign Eddie and the palm tree Some of the Christmas bord I haven't been feeling well for a couple of months. I have had fever now and then, headache, runny nose, ey...

Friends, musical and sick

On Saturday we had our good friends over for lunch. Since she doesn't eat gluten I made Swedish hamburgers glutenfree which means I didn't have any breadcrumbs in it but instead egg and cream and of course seasoning. They were delicious. I served roasted sweet potatoe and Jerusalem artichoke to that and also a gorgeous sallad, if I may say so myself. For dessert and coffee I made a Pavlova but also included crusched Daim (a good chocolate). We sat for several hours talking about what had been going on, how we were and how our children and grandchildren are. Because of their illness we haven't been able to meet so much this year so we had a lot of catching up to do. It's so nice with good friends. You don't have to say that much, nor explain because we understand. We have been friends now for 34 years so a very long time. We also laugh a lot when we meet. All in all a wonderful afternoon. Work as usual Monday. On Tuesday I started feeling "funny...
