Friends, musical and sick

On Saturday we had our good friends over for lunch. Since she doesn't eat gluten I made Swedish hamburgers glutenfree which means I didn't have any breadcrumbs in it but instead egg and cream and of course seasoning. They were delicious. I served roasted sweet potatoe and Jerusalem artichoke to that and also a gorgeous sallad, if I may say so myself.


For dessert and coffee I made a Pavlova but also included crusched Daim (a good chocolate).
We sat for several hours talking about what had been going on, how we were and how our children and grandchildren are. Because of their illness we haven't been able to meet so much this year so we had a lot of catching up to do. It's so nice with good friends. You don't have to say that much, nor explain because we understand. We have been friends now for 34 years so a very long time.
We also laugh a lot when we meet. All in all a wonderful afternoon.

Work as usual Monday. On Tuesday I started feeling "funny" that is feverish and chilly. On Wednesday me and Helen went to the theatre to see the absolutely amazing musical Så som i himlen which translate something like "As in heaven". Wonderful story, fantastic music and the actors/singers were truly amazing. Before the theatre we had dinner and talked and had time to catch up. Although we live in the same city we don't see each other often. That is due to Helen working a lot, me working a lot, Helen's "babies" are moving. She recently lost her dog but whenever we have the time we try to meet and have some alonetime. She, Bianca and Toni will celebrate Christmas Eve with us as well as Emil, Danniel, Jonas, Mandy and Eddie. (And on Christmas Day we go to Gavle.)



Anyway as the musical continued I froze so much we had to get my coat in the pause so I could use it like a blanket. And yes I had fever when I came home. And in the morning I woke up with ophtalmia. Couldn't open my eyes and when I could they were all red. Second time in a  couple of weeks.
So yesterday I canceled all my appointments and stayed home. 
Today I went down to get my B12 shot and my nurse was so nice and she fixed a time with my doctor, not until December 12 but that was good since he's so busy. I think I need to be checked and I suspect I'm in a deep relapse. We have to wait and see what he says,


Other than that it's all good but as you know this is the darkest time here in Sweden and we don't have any snow yet.

I wish you all a very happy 1st Advent

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.

Hello December

This month started with a tax education, yeah :-) in Uppsala. Since we don't have a goverment yet due to the chaotic political scene after the election, no one actually knows what's going to happen with taxes. It's just guesses. The day after we had Christmas celebration at the Rheumatic district of Stockholm. It was a lot of fun, good food and nice to meet everyone :-) And on Saturday it was time for Christmas lunch with my own Rheumatic local association. We were around 30 members incl. Eddie and Mandy. We had a lot of good food and we had the party at a local hotel here in Väsby in Bredden. There were two other children there so I bought them each a Christmas gift and they were very happy for what they got from the Rheumatic Santa Claus.
