The summer continues with music and festivals :-)

 Yesterday it was time for Hadirajafestival which is the festival Erik Gronwall has arranged together with 2 others. He performed as the last act of the evening together with Jona on guitar. Here's a link to their performance

I also found a new group which I really liked. It's a group called Sir REG and they are from Ireland. It's like being at a pub in Ireland and you really can't sit still with this kind of music, at least not me.

The day before this I had my mother-son day with Jonas. Since the weather has been just wonderful the last week I booked us on a cruise in the archipelago. This time to Sandhamn via a very narrow canal that you only can go through with this ship we went on.
What a day! Sunshine all day long, the best company, good food and drink and I even got to go into the water. Not bathing though but just as I usually do in LA, that is up to my knees.
 
Jonas happy

I love the days I spend with each one of my sons. It's something different to meet like this when they are grown-up and for me personally I have a need to spend time alone with them and catch up on everything.

Next week it all starts up again for real. It's work, it's meeting with the Rheumatic association, it's time to get my feet done and I also have a meeting with my dentist (my sis) So full steam ahead :-)

I hope you all have a great week wherever you are. Take care!

    I think you are more like Nuri than me (I don't know about Helen) as far as dancing is concerned. I am a little self conscious to get up and dance and sing -unless I had a few drinks- but Nuri , she hears music and she is out dancing and showing off even if she's the only one dancing lol.
    You really had a fun filled summer doing lots of cruises. I am so glad you are feeling so well too, maybe the sun helps you feel better :)

    Helen is also a dancer and showgirl much more than me. I don't want to show off but at the same time I can't sit still. So many times I sit down and move to the music.
    I do have had a great summer with lots of things going on and it's not over yet :-)
    I am not well at all I'm afraid but these things make me forget the pain and as always I do have to have something to look forward to in order to cope with everything :-)
    Hope you are OK and are getting excited for the trip to Spain :-)
    Love and kisses

    MIa, I said Nuri likes to show off, I was not talking about you. She even got in the dance cages in the 70's clubs LOL. Even now, there's nothing she loves more than be the center of attention.
    And what do you mean you are not well at all?? I thought you were feeling much better. In the pictures you look great!

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...

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.

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 ...
