Saint Bridget's day, H.E.A.T tour Gothenburg and Stockholm this weekend

This photo shows autumn in a Japanese garden.



Today is Saint Bridget's Day. In 1999 Pope John Paul II declared her the patron saint of Europe and since then is this her day of feast.

Why am I interested in her you maybe wonder? When I attended college I did a work on her and found her lifestory very interesting and I have continued to follow what is written about her, her daughter Katherine and her nuns.

At work things are going great. I have been baking cookies every day for the students afternoon coffee and in the mornings I make delicious sandwiches, if I may say so myself :-)
I light scented candles in the morning for a nice start (it's actually getting dark in the mornings now). I see to it that they have fruit and candy. The group is very nice and I get the feeling they feel very much at home and they discuss freely and we have fun together. I like this to be able to do a bit of everything.

Today me and Jonas went to IKEA to shop the last things for his flat. When we came back I went in to see what the flat looked like now when he has painted the walls. It really looks great! It's such a nice 1 bedroom flat. He's almost done now with shopping but he wants a flat TV to complete with.

H.E.A.T is to play with Hardcore superstar on Friday and Saturday in Gothenburg and Stockholm. Then they have to pack their bags for Japan.

The photo here has nothing at all to do with what I 've written but I just love Las Vegas and this collage was made by my sister Jo and I love it!

Talk to you tomorrow :-)

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.

On popular demand

I have on popular demand decided to start writing again. I haven't had time to do this blog for a lot of reasons mostly lack of time. There is so much to do and so little time. Since I last wrote there have been a big change and it's my grandson. Yes, I'm a granny now to the most adorable boy, Eddie. He's now 19 months old and I love him to the moon and back. He's my joy and I'm so happy I can see him grow. I have really been there from the moment he was born (almost).  Always on the piano the first thing he do. His parents called me the morning of April 23 last year at 0415AM and said it was time. So I just rushed out of bed, drove to them and then drove them to the hospital. It was a long day before we they called and told us that Eddie was born in the evening. Only 1 1/2 day later I fetched them and drove the new little family home. Since they don't have a car I have driven them where they want to go. The first 6 months were quite difficult wi...

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 ...
