HOT HOT H.E.A.T

Today it's 10th December and as usual Nobel Prize. I first watched the peaceprize being awarded President Obama and I noticed he too is lefthanded :-). He held a beautiful speach, he's really a good speaker. Even the Crownprincess of Norway was moved to tears. Directly after that I started baking safronbuns - yes, again!! I can't help people like them so much. Even though I make double the amount it still just dissapears. So after being baking for 3 hours I immediately started dinner. We have a tradition and that is we eat nobel dinner here. I cook something good and we eat by the diningtable in the livingroom with candle lights and nice porcellain. Today I had avocado with shrimps, dill and lemon for starter. Main course was fillet of beef with bearnaisesauce, pommes de croques and tomatoesalad, yummie. We were to have dessert as well but we were so full we couldn't eat it. We can have it tomorrow instead, fruitsallad with whipped cream. Tomorrow I have to bake cookies...

There you have it!! This is how I feel right now. I don't know if I will have a job in 2010. I work in this small company and we have a great concept but it's only me and Richard and our main selling point was to be the education as energy expert. It's especially made to suit chimney-sweepers but to this point they haven't been that interested. We have had two classes so far and the students have been very satisfied and as far we know at least two of them is now certified. But we had to cancel the class that was supposed to start this week. Next course is planned to start on January 24 but so far we only have one pupil. Richard asked me today, when we had a meetin, if I was willing to work on hours. That is not having a steady job and not knowing when I will work and how much I will earn. I said no, I can't work under such conditions. I mean I have my bills to pay and it feels very unsecure to work hours. That was something I did when I was 16 to 19 years old and wo...

Yesterday was a quiet day with lots of chill after the former days of activity. So kind of boring for me. Nothing planned except for tomorrow when a friend will come and have coffee at work. Maybe I will bake something for Christmas this week. Safronbuns? Cookies? I will have to wait and see what I feel up to. On Friday it's vacation time again and I'm going to the hairdresser. Also needs to do some shopping for Saturday's Christmas party with the Rheumatic association. Now the only thing I'm looking for this week is a Luciaprocession that will come and sing for us on Saturday. Of course with everything that's included with Lucia. It's a bit late I know but I have to try. Maybe we will have luck. I have written all the Christmas cards and the last ones I will post tomorrow. I don't like the mail-cards. Not for Christmas! It's something special to get all those Christmas cards and I love it. We haven't received any yet but I'm sure we will. Oh, I ...

Peder (Real Group) Helen, Me and Anders E (Real Group) Me and Helen went down to Linköping yesterday to see the Christmas concert there with artists like Sissel, The Real Group, Orsa spelmän, Odd Nordstuga, Trondheimsolisterna mm. We arrived 4.30PM and got our room. It was a bonus stay because I had so many points. I was expecting a small double but we got this beautiful big Superior room with two beds, a sitting area, table, TV and a gorgeous bathroom. The beds were really superlovely and were eleveted electrically. Since we arrived rather late and Helen had to fix herself we booked at a restaurant on town because at the hotel they had "julbord" and we couldn't have room-service. Since we know two in Real Group Anders E and Peder we wanted to give them something so it was up to me to run to the "Systembolaget" and buy some champagne for them. I have never been in Linköping this way, mostly you passes on the highway. I asked in the reception where the Systemb...

I just want to share these videos with you. It's H.E.A.T that records their new album and meanwhile being filmed. It's great to be able to see how they work and a sneakpreview of their songs although some of it are censured and some tones you hear aren't the right ones (censure) Studio diary part 1 Studio diary part 2 I hope you enjoy like I did. I will place more videos here as they go along. Other than that I'm preparing to go to Linköping and the Christmas concert tonight. Should be fun but mostly getting into the Christmas spirit I hope. Have a wonderful Friday with lots of "fredagsmys". Talk to you soon :-)

Today I had nothing planned in my calender?? What was wrong? I don't mind because you who read my blog know that it's a hectic life :-) It was like Hasse said: what, no plans today? What's wrong. Yesterday I was at the boardmeeting and was back home around 4.30PM and then I started making dinner. I did mashed potatoes with Christmas sausage, peas and carrots. Very good and it feels closer to Christmas every day now. I don't mind since we will be a very small crowd here this year. Me, Jonas, Emil, Danniel, Hasse, Mandy and Mom on Christmas Eve. Helen will be in Thailand with her family. We will probably have Mandy, her Mom, Jonas and maybe some more over one of the other Christmas days. Then, of course, we will go to Gavle and New Year's we will be home with our friends as tradition bids. But now I'm ahead of myself :-) It was the Christmas sausage that got me going :-D Anyway I have been sitting here planning for tomorrow. I have vacation from my job tomorrow an...

Our new homepage to my work: http://www.elspargruppen.se/ Not quite ready but beautiful. And if you want to have a future job in an expanding business don't hesitate to be an energy expert. We have your education! We have board-meeting tomorrow with the Rheumatic association and I had forgotten to send out the agenda which I am supposed to do. The secretary called me while I was in Norrtälje asking me if I had sent it out and I just said: shit. Yes I actually said that. But I have wrote the agenda since I came home and also sent it out but I will bring it tomorrow to the meeting as well if they haven't seen it. Could it be Alzheimer light? Or do you think I have to much on my mind? Anyway I had a wonderful time in Norrtälje with the best Chantarellesoup of the year I think. Great stuff. Afterwards back to the clinic for some treatments which actually made me fall half asleep so maybe too much for me now. And also a fullmoon which doesn't help. After that I went to Flygfyren...
