Week update, Birthday and more

I know, I have been so bad in updating my blog this week but I hope you forgive me :-). I started my new job on Monday and since then it has really been crazy.

I mean for 8 months I have been doing practically what I want at the time I want and noone has asked me to perform except for deaths, funerals, caring for parents, children and husband but apart from that :-)) So now I have to adjust to getting up early in the morning again. I now get up at 5.45AM and starts work 7.30AM which is human I think. I am supposed to stop working at 11.30AM but it's hard now in the beginning while building this to just drop everything but I try.

Tuesday was my birthday and it started in a very nice way by Jo calling me from La Mirada, LA at 6.20. She sang Happy Birthday and Feliz Cumpleanos to me which was great. Then we chatted for a long while which was so nice. I loved hearing her voice after such a long time and sometimes I wish it wasn't so many miles between us, especially since we met late in life and has a lot to catch up.
Hasse had also layed the table and made breakfast and I had a present from him and Gunilla and that was to go to a Spa with Gunilla. So nice and just what I need.
Then I came to work, with a cake of course, and Richard came and sang to me which surprised me more. But of course he had my birthdates and not only that he's birthday was on Friday 18 so we are both virgins ;-)) So lots of cakes this week.

This coming week we have the first education, a class of 8 that will be energydeclarants after 5 weeks. So interesting and exciting. I do hope this first class turns out well so they spread the word. There is no better way than word to word when it comes to commercials.

On Friday night we had birthday dinner here for the boys and Mandy. It was so nice that they all could come. I had made potatoegratin, pork sirloinsteak, sallat, a couple of different sauces like chilibearnaise and a creamsauce made out of the gravy from the meat. Very good.
Then we had coffee and cake.















Yesterday I went to the Opera together with Carina and Carole and we saw Swanlake. It's such a beautiful ballet and I really love the music. Yesterday's greatest performer was the part as court jester that was danced by Avetik Karapetyan. Great high jumps and full control of every jump and pirouette. In the intervals we went out on the terrace of the Opera and what a wonderful night. You couldn't believe it was almost the end of September. During day we had 23C and at night you could still go out without a coat or sweater on. And the sunset over Stockholm!! So absolutely beautiful. It's not often you see that, especially us that live outside the city center.

Today I have been down to Alby visiting my Mom and today she recognized me at once. She was asleep and when she woke up she said: Mia.
At the beginning the talk was a bit hard to understand but she came along well and after a while it got better and better. She told me that she had been out for dinner with Dad yesterday evening and now it seems like he wants her. The thing is he has been dead since May.
I want the medicine she's getting ;-) Seriously, she has been so angry with him thinking he's getting married with someone else so this is much better.
This week she got morphine because her hand (that she broke a couple of weeks ago) hurt so much. After that they could hardly wake her up and called me anxious. But I said that she probably had a good time and didn't want to come back and obviously she had.
You can joke about it, and she does as well as we. The alternative is to cry and of course that happens as well but I'm happy she still has her sense of humour left and we do get lots of laughs every time.

My advice to everyone out there: Live while you can, you never know when it's over. Carpe Diem.

Take care and see you soon

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...
