Time?!

My sister wrote on her blog that : We all have or should have a few minutes to spare for keeping in touch, even to just say...nothing much was going on today... 

That is so wise. Time is free and we can give it without spending a lot. Giving time is love nowadays I think.
I have heard horrible stories here in Sweden.When a loved one passes away people don't have time even to bury them with dignity. They look in their big thick calenders and tries to squeeze in 15 minutes.
 Undertakers have reported about families sitting with their calenders and finally being able to take not a day, not half a day but maybe 1 hour and after the funeral back to work.
Is this the society we want to have? Is this how you want it to be when it's time for you to go?
I can honestly say that this is NOT what I want. At least out of respect for loved ones you can at least devote 1 day for funeral, remembering with friends and family and dinner with the closest ones. When I go I want everyone to have a party. To eat good, drink good, sing,speaking about me with happiness and cheering me.
And that takes more than 15 minutes!! Remember that!

From one thing to another. We had a snowstorm yesterday. Chaos of course in traffic but I managed to get home in one piece. It came around 3 dm and that is much. Today a lot of it melted so wet snow and now tonight it's freezing making it icy. The worst weather I know!! Tomorrow I'm going to Norrtälje so I hope they will have cleaned the roads.

Recap of the week

This week meant a lot to do and I'm afraid I haven't taken the time to write here :-( But here's a recap of what has happened. Monday and Tuesday not very much but I was so, so tired and my joints does not like this weather at all. I have so much pain especially in my hands and fingers which makes it hard even to write here.  On Wednesday I went to Norrtälje to my good friend Anne for some treatment, which was very much needed, lots of chat and also a very good lunch. It's always a pleasure to see her and we have so much to talk about all the time. A true friend who I'm so grateful of having. Next day it was time for work and after that directly to the working committe in the Rheumatic association. Afterwards also meeting in the foundation, where we grant money to people who have applied, and fulfill the rules of the statues. When driving home again at night, it's so dark now and I hate driving in the dark, there was an accident with a big truck a...

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...
