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.

I haven't been feeling well for a couple of months. I have had fever now and then, headache, runny nose, eye inflammation, ache in an ear and more asthma and difficulty to breathe as well as being irritated for nothing and always tired, tired, tired. So finally I decided it was time to see my doctor. I went on Tuesday and as always I write him a "novel" that describes my problems. And I always tell him to read first and then we can talk. He immediately suspected that I had an infection and also what kind of bacterias but to be sure he stuck this long thing in my nose to take a test. That wasn't very nice I can tell you. My tears just ran because it hurt and it's close to the tear canal.

The test came back the day after, yesterday, and yes of course I had two different bacterias that is bad to have. So now I'm on antibiotics and I hope I will get well soon and back to "myself" again.

Today I went to my hairstylist who is also a dear friend. We always have a lot of fun, discussing, laughing and I always come out very happy with my hair. Then I baked a soft gingerbread pastry which we will have on Christmas Eve. They are now frozen to avoid being eaten too early, lol.

Also tonight Gunilla came. She is now graduating her education to mediyogainstructor/therapist. I will miss her coming here once a month so maybe I have to get her to teach my Rheumatic local association.

Tomorrow me and my friend Ingvor will go to Linköping to watch our traditional Christmas concert. This time with Matilda (not with Peter) and David Lindgren. It's a nice tradition and also a mini vacation before Christmas.

On Monday my big sister will turn 75. I can't believe that. She looks so good and not at all her age. But does anyone look their age these days? But she and I are natural beauties. No botox or changes in the face. I do hope she will receive my birthday gift in time.

Take care and I'll try to write soon.

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 ...
