A brand NEW YEAR 2015 - a recap of 2014




Last year, 2014, was filled with work, pleasure and fun. But a lot of hard work and therefore much needed with the pleasure in between.

My favorites this year was my visit to my sister Jo in LA and my 60th birthday which also was kind of sad because none of my sisters were able to attend. On the other hand I had my children, my bonus children and my bonus grandchildren at the party along with lot of musical friends.

August: The HEAT wave continues. We went to a luxury cruise to Abo with Danniel and Emil. Forestfire due to hot weather. My sis Helen's birthday. I broke my toes (2).

September: My 60th birthday and the most amazing party just as I wanted, lots of music, singing and fun. H.E.A.T performed and I sang with them. And I sang "Sweet home Alabama" together with Erik G.
Conference with the Rheumatic association(RA) at Torpa in Sodertalje and training to perform with an actress as teacher.

Was present at Open House at Karolinska hospital, Rheumatic clinic. 
Me and Helen went on the Rock boat where H.E.A.T played. It took us to Helsinki.

November: We only had 5 hours (!) sunshine in November. That's a record (we don't want to have again).
Went to a concert with my sis Helen. A gift from Anna, who had written all the music, whose concert it was. My 60th gift from her.
Helen's birthday gift to me was SPA, dinner and a luxury hotel stay - nice.

Christmas Eve at home with family and Pinglan (Helen's dog who we "dogsit" when they are in Dubai).
Christmas Day celebration in Gavle with all of our family up there. Not all could attend but still we were 14.
Then a quiet and peaceful New Year's Eve with good food.

This is a bit of what happened in 2014. Apart from all this I have constantly been on meetings lately most about the big day we are going to have in the Royal Hagapark (where our Crown Princess with family lives) on May 23.

Already a lot of plans for 2015 which I hope will be a success.
Take care everyone and most of all I wish you a HAPPY, HEALTHY NEW YEAR!!

I have so much pain especially in my hands and fingers which makes it hard even to write here.  On Wednesday I went to Norrtälje to my good friend Anne for some treatment, which was very much needed, lots of chat and also a very good lunch. It's always a pleasure to see her and we have so much to talk about all the time. A true friend who I'm so grateful of having. Next day it was time for work and after that directly to the working committe in the Rheumatic association. Afterwards also meeting in the foundation, where we grant money to people who have applied, and fulfill the rules of the statues.
