Christmas lunch with old job

Me and Anne had a great time :-)
Today I first went to work and Richard told me if we didn't get enough students to the course starting January 24 he can't emply me :-( He can employ me on hourly basis but that is too unsecure so I said no to that. It could mean a lot of hours or very few and since I have to pay my bills I need to have a secure income. So not a very good start to this week.
We are writing a selling letter and we will draw amongst the ones that apply a Ipod touch the latest model. We hope that will attract some more.
So I have until the end of January and if we can't get it to work I will be unemployed again so already now I have started to look for jobs (just in case).

Then I headed home and fetched Hasse who was so kind to drive me to Old Town and the Stortorgskällaren where I met my former workmates for our last Christmas lunch together. It was so fun to see everyone again and there were lots of hugs exchanged.

In line for the glögg

First of course the obligatory glögg and then we all went for the food which was good but nothing too exciting. A bit dissapointed of the candytable. Our former Chief of school to the right. He came from Gothenburg!
We all expected more and certainly more homemade stuff since we were in Old Town. This place is situated just beside the Storkyrkan where our Crown Princess Victoria will marry next June.
Outside on Stortorgets julmarknad (The Big Square Christmas market). See the snow?
After this we all went home and I took the commute train and had company with 6 others from work. Very nice.
So now I am completely tired and just wants to sleep. Something happened when I ate the chocolate of the candytable. I suddenly went all dizzy and kind of high. Have you ever experienced that? Maybe it's because I eat chocolate too seldom? I don't know. So I think it's that I'm tired of. Maybe I'm allergic to chocolate? What a faith if I am!!

Oh my God

The Christmas smorgasbord I just realized I haven't written anything since November 23! But I can tell you I haven't been lazy but there has been so much going on that I haven't had the strength to write. I had meetings that week and I was supposed to be at a conference hotel for lunch that Friday but I was to tired I had to cancel it. So instead I baked safron buns (!) and made chocolate troufles with ginger.  The ferry On December 1 it was Staffan's birthday (Hasse's oldest son) and I worked and worked at my job. Thursday I and Hasse were supposed to go to the theatre and see Come again Charlie, which was one of my birthday presents - thank you Pär and Brita. But Hasse wasn't feeling well so instead I asked Linnea, my bonus grand daughter if she wanted to go and she was very happy that I asked. We had a really good time and the play, which was a comedy, was funny but also with a message which made you laugh and then stop. It was about the si...

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 ...

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.
