I hate it!

When people call or text you just hours before and says they're not coming!
We had invited over 30 people to our Advent celebration and today from 11AM until 15 minutes ago (!) 10 people have said they won't come :-(

I mean if you say yes to something you schedule that, don't you? If you get ill I can understand but to just say you won't be coming that is not OK! Does it means they say yes and will come if not something more interesting comes up? I wonder.

I have planned for 30, baked and made all the rolls and everything, not to mention glogg and if there's only 20 (or less) it means I have thrown out a lot of money for nothing. So we say this is probably the last year we have this.
It takes a lot of effort to do all this, plus all the things to prepare, shop, bake, changing all the furniture so people will have a place to sit and so on.
And it gets harder since neither of us is in our best health :-(

Anyway I'm sure that we and the ones that do come have a good time together with good food and glogg.






This is what we have on our Advent table.

  1. Looks like quite a party you have prepared. It is annoying when people back out of a commitment.

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.

Hello December

This month started with a tax education, yeah :-) in Uppsala. Since we don't have a goverment yet due to the chaotic political scene after the election, no one actually knows what's going to happen with taxes. It's just guesses. The day after we had Christmas celebration at the Rheumatic district of Stockholm. It was a lot of fun, good food and nice to meet everyone :-) And on Saturday it was time for Christmas lunch with my own Rheumatic local association. We were around 30 members incl. Eddie and Mandy. We had a lot of good food and we had the party at a local hotel here in Väsby in Bredden. There were two other children there so I bought them each a Christmas gift and they were very happy for what they got from the Rheumatic Santa Claus.

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.
