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

What do you think? Isn't this gorgeous. Since there was a diningtable and library as well as a big terrace you could easily live there (if money wasn't an option)

Today I was at the hairdresser and fixed my hair again. 

Another thing that happened this week is that Hasse's favorite hockey team, Leksand (from Dalarna of course), took their place once again in the Elitserien and he was this happy when I came home:
My Mom turned 89 on April 2 and we are going to celebrate her now on Saturday. Then on Sunday it's Hasse's turn to celebrate his birthday (April 7).

H.E.A.T started their European tour on Easter by touring Finland. They are now on their way to Germany and then they will play several places in England and Scotland and then Spain.
But Jonas will be back for his birthday which is April 17 :-)

Oh if you wonder about the step competition. I have reached according to this map, south of San Clemente. I have walked 121 km and has 80 km left to San Diego. I won't reach San Diego cause it's only 4 days left but I will do my best to reach as far as I can :-)


Take care until next time!

  1. I think I told you our father's brother Juan, always participated in contests in the radio and TV and won quite often. You must have his genes! Way to go Mia!

  2. Thank you Sandy and Jo :-) I was so surprised especially since I had forgotten all about it. I wrote that slogan in November I think.
    But I'm so very happy and it's kind of funny since Hasse and I have talked a lot about going to Paris. I haven't been there since 1972 and Hasse since the end of the 70's.

    Have a really good weekend both of you. Love you and miss you <3 <3

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.
