Last day of July



Yes, it's the last day of July and it's high summer. Yesterday we had quite a lot of rain and it was the first time it rained here at home since I can't remember. It was really needed. The grass haven't been green in a long time. It's yellow because it's so dry. The leaves of the trees especially the birches are getting all yellow because of the drought and this is not usual in Sweden.

I started working again on Monday after 3 weeks holiday. It was hard getting up at 4.45AM again but I managed. So I worked Monday-Tuesday. Today I'm off work because I will be working tomorrow. It's August 1 and I have to do invoicing.


Today I'm off to the hairdresser. My hair tends to grow more in the summer. Maybe it's the same for you? After that I have to go to the bank to pay my Mom's last bills. It's kind of hard because here in Sweden most banks don't have money (!!) So you have to find that special bank that is like a bank is supposed to be! Aren't bank supposed to handle money?

Anyway that's my plans for today. What's yours?

On Saturday we are going to Gävle to celebrate Hasse's oldest son and his fiancée who both turns 50 so we are invited to a 100-year party :-)
Their actual birthdays aren't until December but it's easier to invite when it's summer and you can be outside.
The same day it's a rock festival here in Väsby where bands like H.E.A.T, Dynazty and many many more perform. I would have love to be here for that but obviously can't.
There are a lot of friends from England and other countries coming for this event and I'm so sorry I won't be able to meet them :-(

I don't write often about it but I read a lot!! This summer, since June, I think I have read 10 or more books. I have a habit to read whenever or where ever I am. I can't go to sleep without reading. I read when I cook, when I eat, when I'm in the bathroom. And I have been doing this since I was a child.
Have a great day everyone!

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.

New month and new challenges

Since I last wrote I have had boardmeeting at my work where I sit on the board. I have had audit for the Rheumatic association which went well.  We have also had our first of the year member meeting and the theme this time was Fibromyalgia and Morbus Dercum (a rare disease) and as usual I made a good healthy soup and to that we serve bread, cheese, water, coffee with something sweet too.   They don't look that happy but we had just eaten and it's serioud matters we discuss I have also had audit at work which also went very well and is extremely early. I have attended a board meeting with the Rheumatic assocation district Stockholm. I went to my hairstylist since it was long overdue. My hairstylist has truly became a very good and dear friend. We have similar backgrounds and we have children that are artists. Her daughter is a singer and show host on one of the cruise ships on the Baltic Sea and I have Jonas. We have so much fun toghether she and I and we have eve...

NEW YEAR

I left you in December just before Christmas with a beginning cold. And of course it bloomed the rest of my leave from work. So I decided to stay home another week so my first day in the new year was yesterday :-) Even if I felt ill we had a lot of fun during Christmas and New Year. The day before Christmas Eve Jonas, Mandy and Eddie came. We did the last Christmas decorations, ate together and had a good time before going to bed. They slept over so in the morning we all had a wonderful Christmas breakfast which, of course, included Christmas porridge (which we only eat once a year) made of rice and to that we had the obligatory Christmas ham sandwich with mustard. This is so good and when you have this you know it's Christmas. Of course I bought the ham from an organic farm where I have been myself. They actually also have a recording studio on the ground so Jonas has been there several times recording bands. Therefore I know the pigs are well kept and have the best lives t...
