This year's first julbord

Julbord is like a Swedish smorgasbord just more Christmas. Like we have our big thing which is Christmas Ham and that is a must! Also spare ribs, janssons frestelse (Jansson's temptation which doesn't tempt me) and so much more. Of course meatballs, herring, desserts and candy.
Just a small part of the julbord


I was invited to the Viking line (cruise line) to attend their premier julbord together with other VIP's. This was for me + one. So my friend I also on my board with the Rheumatic ass. went. It was grand, it was tasty and I couldn't do it justice at all. I'm sorry but smorgasbord or julbord is not for me. I can't eat that much so I just take the things I like on one plate. Then I take a little plate for desserts. But most people can go 3,4,5,6,7 or more times and take more. I don't know how they can eat that much.
Ingvor is the one closest to the window.


Anyway it was a nice lunch and we also got a Christmas gift which is a universal charger for mobile phones and is supposed to fit all phones. It did fit mine.

Before I went I was interviewed on the phone for a magazine about my commitment with the Rheumatic association. They wanted to interview me as an enthusiast and role model for others.
Now I just have to have a good photo of myself which they want for the interview.
Not this one though :-)
This is Santa's throne



Tomorrow we have a member meeting where we will talk about SLE (Lupus) and Sjogren's. As usual we will serve soup but this time Ingvor made it. And directly after that we have a board meeting.

On Saturday our friends Johnny and Anne will come over for lunch. That will be nice since we haven't seen them for a while due to their illness.

And tonight we have a wonderful full moon
Take care of each other and to all my American family I wish you a very HAPPY THANKSGIVING! And although we don't celebrate that at all here in Sweden I'm thankful for having you in my life.

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.

New month and new challenges

Since I last wrote I have had boardmeeting at my work where I sit on the board. I have had audit for the Rheumatic association which went well.  We have also had our first of the year member meeting and the theme this time was Fibromyalgia and Morbus Dercum (a rare disease) and as usual I made a good healthy soup and to that we serve bread, cheese, water, coffee with something sweet too.   They don't look that happy but we had just eaten and it's serioud matters we discuss I have also had audit at work which also went very well and is extremely early.
