...and then it was February

I thought the year started in a nice and slow pace but now it's full steam ahead again :-)

February is full of closing the books, auditing, annual meetings, being chairwoman and secretary at annual meetings, birthdays and more. 

Today is actually my father's birthday and his namesday, Ricardo, so I say happy birthday and send it up to heaven.
Friday Klara our grandchild turned 20, next Monday it's Danniel's birthday and the day after my niece Bianca's birthday (currently living in Australia). HAPPY BIRTHDAY to each and everyone of you!


We have had very cold weather, that came from Russia, but now it's nicer, the snow has melted and today in the sun we even have temperatures around 8C. 

It has also been a time with lots of pain. It started in December already with my left leg that hurt. And it has gradually gotten worse. It's now located to my knee which has been really swollen and hurting.
I have tried cycling on my exercise bike but it got worse. I have an appointment with my Dr but not until March 2 because he's on holiday in Mexico.
I have also had very bad pain in my back, right side very high up. No idea what that is and I have never had it before. Is it supposed to be like this when you grow older? Not very nice!
I can't walk like I want to and the best thing is to rest but when I don't move as I usually do I gain weight which I hate!! So right now I'm in a bad spiral.

I do hope this goes away as the weather improves and gets warmer. If you have rheumatism it's bad with cold weather for your joints, as you maybe know.

There is a lot of flu, colds, stomachflu going here too and we have had our share of that too. I hope everyone that has been affected of this is better or beginning to get better.

I wish you all a good Sunday whether it's morning or afternoon or evening where you are.

Take care and be nice to one another.

  1. I'm very sorry to read that you have been having so much pain this winter in your back and your knee. I know it's hard for you to take time for yourself to just rest, but you need to slow down when your body tells you to. I'm done with my cold and I feel just fine, I do have a lot of time to rest though!!! :)
    Take care and get well soon. Love you, Jo

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.

Recap of the week

This week meant a lot to do and I'm afraid I haven't taken the time to write here :-( But here's a recap of what has happened. Monday and Tuesday not very much but I was so, so tired and my joints does not like this weather at all. 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. When driving home again at night, it's so dark now and I hate driving in the dark, there was an accident with a big truck a...

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 ...
