Update






Since last time I wrote I have been to see my friend Anne in Norrtälje. Very nice as usual with lots of chat, laughter and of course good food.

On Saturday I attended the premiere of Spader Dam (Queen of Spades) by Tjajkovskij. A wonderful opera and very modern since it's about a man that gets addicted to gamling so much that he loses the love of his life and finally commits suicide. The leading man wasn't that good because most of the time the music overplayed his voice. It wasn't strong enough to reach out. The music and the orchestra on the other hand was magnificent. I didn't come home until 11.45 PM just in time to see Sweden ending up in 22 place (worst in I don't know how many years) in Eurovision song contest. No, we would have been better off if we had sent H.E.A.T to the Eurovision I think.

Monday was Hasse's namesday, Erik, and as a gift from me he received a trip to Tällberg with overnight stay in a suite with full board, tickets for Dalhalla to see Rhapsody in Rock on July 14. I'm also coming if you were wondering :-)

On Tuesday I went to Gävle to have treatments first with Gunilla on Tuesday and then with Per on Wednesday. It's always so nice to come up there and meet everyone. Emil had been there since before the weekend because he was helping Staffan paiting the "friggebod" (a small house we can build here in Sweden without permit). So Emil, Lena and Staffan came up later that night to Gunillas so we had a chance to chat. Emil then went home with me yesterday.

Today I have been to see my Mom but she had a bad day and was very confused. After that I saw the priest who is going to officiate at the funeral. She was a lovely lady, very christian which I really like in a priest (don't laugh, not every priest is you know). We sat and talked for over an hour. I and Helen together with Mom had written down some facts about Olle for instance where he was born, his occupations but also how he was as a person. She, the priest, was very happy to get that. She also liked the music we had choosen and said that she had a feeling this will be a beautiful funeral. I really liked her and I'm sure she will officiate a beautiful funeral for Olle.
Before we parted she read to me: Lord is our shephard..... and also said a prayer for me, my family and Mom. Very nice and touching.

Tomorrow I'm going to fix my hair and then we are invited to dinner by Kitte and Janne in the evening. It's Hasse's birthday gift from them.

On Saturday we are off to Göta kanal with the Rheumatic association and then on Sunday I'm off to Gävle for treatments again.

Some photos here too to show you what's been going on earlier. It's from grillkväll (BBQ evening) with Jona, Mandy, Emil, Mandy's mom Sofie, Danniel and me and Hasse.
Also from Kungsan on RixFm festival where H.E.A.T performed.
And a very nice photo of my Mom and Emil when we had lunch in Skärholmen.

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...
