Halloween


Today it's Halloween or at least I think it's today. We don't celebrate it that much now since the boys are grown up.


We are going to Norrtalje today with our very good friends K and J. In Norrtalje we will go home to our friends J and A for a drink and after that we are going to my favourite restaurant Ett Glas, which in English is One Glass, where we will have dinner. This is actually my birthdaygift from them and I really love the thought. So J is coming home to us in the afternoon and we will have some coffee before we go. He is to be our driver tonight so that we can have a drink and some wine. That is so nice.

E has promised to "babysit" our dog Hilma.


The weather is really grey, rainy and dull. On the positive side is that I light candles in the afternoon and evening and this is so cosy I think. I love that especially with scented candles.


It's getting closer and closer now the fact that my work is closing down. There are meetings planned, we have to delete in our computers, we have to throw away a lot of papers, documents etc and we also of course have to save some thing. It's strange to think that next year I don't have any work to go to. We will have meetings but we don't know where and it won't be the same. We will get help through an authority with education (if we need that) with coaching and so on but ultimately it's our own responsibility to create our future.


I wish you all a scary Halloween!!

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 ...

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.
