The snowstorm Egon


Our Christmas tree covered in snow. Can you see it's still snowing?

It's so nice that we let it stay there for a while longer :-)

Yesterday we had class 2 warning on our weather. Apparantly there had been a hurricane over Scotland that came to us.
We weren't the hardest to be hit by it, but on the Swedish west coast there were floodings by the sea.

When it is weather like this it's so nice to stay inside and just cuddle up in the sofa reading a good book or watching some film you have wanted to see for a long time or like me be on the computer telling you about the weather ;-)

Of course I cook as well. Like last night we were kind of froozen so I made a lovely Jerusalem artichoke soup. It was so good and warmed us. Today I'm making a roast pork with mashed potatoes and carrots.

American Idol has started and I really love that show. Especially with the judges that are on now. They seem to have fun together which I like.

Jonas is in Thailand and today they had very warm temperatures and were on the beach (like all other days they have been there). I'm not jealous ;-) I really hope they are having a great time.

So far everything has been rather calm after Christmas and New Year but this coming week all start again. I'm going to my hair stylist on Wednesday. Then Gunilla has birthday on Thursday. The same day I have budget meeting with the Rheumatic association as well as the first meeting for the year with the Working committe. Also I'm working with closing the books at work. So a lot to do this week which will end with the opera, Norma, at the Royal Castle in Stockholm.

I hope you all are having a great Sunday and also a good week to come. Take care and be kind to one another.

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 ...

Weekend with H.E.A.T in London

I just got back late last night from London where I spent the weekend with rock'n roll. My main purpose was of course to see H.E.A.T play at O2 Academy Islington London on Saturday. But why not combi ne that with holiday I thought. So me, my sister H and her daughter B as well as Jona's girlfriend M all went. We stayed at this superluxurious ho tel in Holborn Renaissance Chancery court. We had clubroom which gave us a ccess to a Club lounge that offered complimentary meals like continental breakfast, tea/coffe, drinks throughout the day, evening meal and desserts. In our prize was al so an English breakfast in the Pearl restaurant which ordinary cost £24.50! But it was worth it. On Friday evening we went to see "We will ro ck you" with music by Queen. What a musical!!! They talk about Mamma Mia but this one - I don't know but I it's probably better. I got goosebumps all over when the audience at the end starting singing Bohemian Rhapsody, what a feeling. I co...
