Mother's 86th birthday and Happy Easter


I know, I have been so bad in writing this week but as usual full speed ahead and to tell you the truth I also have a blog in Swedish which takes a bit of my time too.

Anyway I felt it was time to fill you in what has happened. Today me, Helen, Bianca and Danniel have celebrated mother's 86th birthday. We took her on a tour with ferry on Lake Malaren and then to a restaurant that litteraly was on the water. Mother loves water and has talked a lot about going on a cruise. She is not able to obviously but this was the closest thing to it. The restaurant Jungfrusund was very nice, the food excellent and I can certainly recommend it if you are in the neighbourhood. After a long lunch when mother also had her presents, a necklace and a perfume (but she seemed most happy about the wrapping paper) we headed home with her but first we went to the house where she used to live. She really appreciated it even though she didn't remember it properly.

We saw the first "tussilago" which is a certain proof of spring coming.A single tussilago in a single spot.

On Wednesday I went to see my coach in Norrtälje and we discussed mainly an interview I was to go to later in the afternoon. A man had seen my CV on the internet and called me up for an interview. I went there but I don't think this was for me. I think what they needed is a skilled controller and that I am not.

Mom is happy with the presents

Tomorrow Staffan is coming over and we will have lunch I think. On Sunday Jonas, Mandy, Emil and Danniel are coming for Easterlinner which will be very nice. I haven't figure out what we will eat but I'm sure I will ;-)

Now I'm really tired and have to rest for a while. My back is killing me. I woke up with a bad backache this morning and it's still there despite taking painkillers. This could last for a couple of day or weeks.
See you tomorrow but if I don't I want to wish you all a very HAPPY EASTER

  1. It seems like you all had a lovely time, but I'm sorry to hear your back is hurting. I hope you feel all better now.
    Besos,

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...
