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.

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...

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.
