Lillejul

I'm just home from Lillejul, the last one, or is it? I have tried to put on a video here for you to see a little bit of the spectacular fireworks we had tonight. They have been competing in the World Championship for fireworks and they have had this tradition that every year they come and do this on our Christmas party in thanks of them lending our training field.

We had a wonderful time starting with "Xmas-gifts" which delivers to those who has stood out during the year. Always funny and lots of laughs. After that it was the fireworks and then we all headed up to the restaurant for more amusement and dinner. We had a lovely fillet with roasted garlic potatoes and wine sauce. Excellent! Then coffee. During dinner of course a lot of singing as always which is nice and also a short speach from our head of school. We also had this HUGE Christmas tree. I think it was over 4 meters high and wonderfully decorated.

It was both happy and sad to be here today. Happy because it's promised that we will have a summer party. 2 of my collegues are taking over the restaurant and will keep in touch. So we can still come for lunch in the future.

Sad because many of us won't see each other again. We have worked together for many years several of us and then suddenly it's over. It's like a divorce or a death. You must allow yourself to grieve if you feel you have to.

Tomorrow is another day and I have to get up and work. Last woman standing or something like that :-) As always sleep well and sweet dreams. Enjoy the fireworks.

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.

NEW YEAR

I left you in December just before Christmas with a beginning cold. And of course it bloomed the rest of my leave from work. So I decided to stay home another week so my first day in the new year was yesterday :-) Even if I felt ill we had a lot of fun during Christmas and New Year. The day before Christmas Eve Jonas, Mandy and Eddie came. We did the last Christmas decorations, ate together and had a good time before going to bed. They slept over so in the morning we all had a wonderful Christmas breakfast which, of course, included Christmas porridge (which we only eat once a year) made of rice and to that we had the obligatory Christmas ham sandwich with mustard. This is so good and when you have this you know it's Christmas. Of course I bought the ham from an organic farm where I have been myself. They actually also have a recording studio on the ground so Jonas has been there several times recording bands. Therefore I know the pigs are well kept and have the best lives t...
