Work, work, work and a bit of pleasure :-)

The living room with work- and relax area
Me and my collegues hard at work

This weekend me and my 3 collegues in the working committé at the Rheumatic association had a conference at the Elite Marina Tower hotel here in Stockholm.

We decided that time is never enough to do what we need to do which, at this instant, was to plan 2015 and furthermore make a 5-year plan.
Another collegue joined us for a couple of hours to help out
We had booked a suite with connecting bedrooms which turned out to be great (and cheaper than if we would have rented a conference room instead). Now we had a big "living room" with a working area with table, flipboard, pens and so on. This meant we could be very effective and we just left to have dinner, breakfast and lunch. Otherwise we stayed in the suite. Then at night we could hang in the sofa area of the room, tired and just laying there before going to bed. 
We got so much done! And we did all, and a bit more, than we had planned for.

Tired and relaxed after a hard days work

Sunday we left at around 11.30AM. It was Father's Day here in Sweden and all the boys were to come for dinner. So away I went and on my way home I bought all the things needed for dinner.
It was so nice to have them all home again. Nowadays it's rare that they can come at the same time :-)

 
Father and sons
I made fillet of beef and pork, potatoe gratin with Wasterbotten cheese on top, sauce bearnaise and sallat. Very nice if I may say so myself. For dessert we had a blue (!) cake and coffee.
 
Jonas playing for Daddy

Jonas played the piano for Hasse just because Hasse wanted him to. So, so nice. We also got to hear a few demos of new songs they are working on.

 In just 2 weeks H.E.A.T will be out on the road again touring Europe. They won't be back until December 20, just in time for Christmas.
 
Birgit Biddder

 Tomorrow I'm going on one of my birthday presents namely a concert with Birgit Bidder at Sodra teatern (South theatre). Birgit aka Anna has composed the music, hired the theatre, sings, plays and have an orchestra on stage, all this by herself. I'm so looking forward to this. It was her gift to me :-) Helen is coming with me.


That's it for me now. Take care and be kind to one another!

    That's something we don't have in common. I used to dislike very much going to school meetings and make plans for the next school year etc. write a new curriculum etc. Even when I was in the leading team I just got bored, just looking forward to going out to dinner and drinking ;)
    It looks like Hasse had a very nice Father's Day with all the boys and your cooking. Enjoy the concert!

    That's probably my Swedish heritage, planning and meeting. It was a great concert and I'm just filled by it right now.
    Love you <3

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 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...
