Just to let you know I'm still here

but I am more or less going into hibernation this time of the year


 I did have a board meeting last week with the Rheumatic association and I did go to the Hamburger Börs to watch the show Alcazar. That was my birthday gift from my sister Helen.

This was the day after the horrible events in Paris. I didn't really felt like going to a show, having fun, dancing after that but then I thought why should they (terrorists) detstroy everything. That is just what they want. They want us to be scared and frightened to go out to restaurants, clubs, shows etc so if we stay inside afraid we do exactly what they want us to do. So we went!

Of course before the show the artists too mentioned the horrible things and said the world is evil but we have to fight it with love and that is what we did.

The show is with Alcazar, as I said earlier, a disco group that breathe, eat and live disco. And since I was young during that era I love it!

Yesterday was a very lazy Sunday and I even watched an old movie on TV. And I can tell you, knock on wood, that my cold is much better!


And yes I almost forgot. Jonas is in Buenos Aires! doing a gig with Martina Edoff. I mean Argentina. What an experience! Sadly enough Lufthansa went on strike the day they were going so they had to rebook to American airlines which meant 30 hours of traveling before reaching BA. I hope he has a great time there and maybe even learns how to dance the tango.

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 ...
