Lazy weekend

This weekend has been really dull with foggy weather and the snow melting away. What to do then? Well I have been so much out and about that this weekend was really welcome. Do you know what I have been doing?

I have started reading the trilogy of Stieg Larsson about Millenium. The first book was awesome. I could hardly stop reading, or reading for that matter. I have listened to it as audio book and I have never been able to do that before but this reader was so good - Reine Brynolfsson. They have of course made a film of it and it premieres on February 27. I really would love to read all parts before I see the movie.

Last night we saw the Swedish Pre Eurovision contest, of course, the first part that took place in Gothenburg. There were a lot of new rules this year and very confusing. It seemed like neither Petra nor the artists really know what the new rules were. Anyway straight to the final went Alcazar and Emilia. To the second chance Scotts and Caroline af Ugglas who also was voted by the international jury as their choice. This means that Caroline has two chances to reach the final both in the second chance and the international jury. I thought it was rather strange that neither Marie nor Nina got more votes. I didn't like Scott's contribution nor Caroline's. I really like Caroline but it's not a song for the Eurovision I think.

Next week we will be in Skelleftea with H.E.A.T. The number to call to vote for them is:
099-230 04 or if you want to pay more 099-320 04
We will fly up early Friday morning (only plane we could get seats on) and the actual contest is Saturday night. Almost all of us H.E.A.T parents, siblings, girlfriends, aunts, grandma's, mother-in-laws, friends etc will stay at the same place so we will surely have a great time.

On Sunday it's D's birthday. He will turn 34! I don't have that grown children have I? I can't believe it's that long ago I laid at Huddinge hospital waiting for him to be born. Happy Birthday D. We won't be able to congratulate him that day but we have been excused since we are in Skelleftea. By the way he didn't want to come so it's his choice. He will cheer in front of the tele instead.

Something to think about: Love cures human beings, both those who gives love and those who receives love.

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...
