My Mom turned 87 last Saturday and on Sunday Helen, me and Danniel went to celebrate her. We had planned to take her out for lunch but on Saturday they called from the home where she lived and said she was still not well after her pneumonia. She had been in bed all week and couldn't even walk. So we changed our plans and brought cakes and presents to her in her room while having coffee. Very nice and she seemed better which was comforting.
This week has been full of work. I need to to everything ready before my holiday. Also this week actually yesterday Hasse turned 70. I can't believe that! He still looks so young and fit despite his illness.
Tomorrow Saturday we have Open House to celebrate him and we except around 46 friends and relatives to turn up. It will certainly be crowded but as we say in Sweden: If there are heartroom (love) there are butroom (room to sit down) :-)
So today I'm cooking gulasch soup, baking bread, making cakes and more...... Should be a lot of fun having everyone here again (although lot of work).
Then Sunday, hopefully, I will have time to plan what to pack for the trip.
Did I mention I'm going to Los Angeles to visit my sister. That will be so nice. I haven't seen her in 3 years :-( It's a long journey and cost a bit so you don't go every year. I will stay almost three weeks and I'm so looking forward to that. Also my nieces will come and my nieces son (what is that to me?)
Most of the times I've been over I have been there for Easter and so is the case this year too. So I will go to Jo's school for Easter egg hunt which I remember was very funny. I will write and tell you when I'm in place.
I start from Arlanda at 7 AM Wednesday morning and will be in LA the same day at 3PM after travelling 17 hours! So the first day I'm always a bit tired but I will try to stay up because the sooner you get in the right timezone. (It's 9 hours time difference).
So now you know what I'm doing this weekend. I hope you all have a good one :-)
