Now when people post their most sparkling family portraits on social media. Remember this. It could be a true reflection of a truly blissful life or it’s a more or less staged moment seconds from chaos.

No wonder people get stressed
I went to the my client’s office a while back. It doesn’t happen often. Thank God Covid19 taught us to work from a distance. One of the reasons I don’t visit the office is that the team I work with the most doesn’t sit there. Thereto it’s 1,5 hrs away (train or car) from my…
Jackpot
This weekend was a full jackpot in “adult points” – freely translated from Wikipedia “Adult points is a humous concept about personal characteristics and actions that characterize life as an adult.“ Naturally, being close to the 50, I and the Mr are more than adults, even if we still want to question that fact once…
It’s complicated
It sure is. My relationship to clothes. What!?, you’re a woman and women loves clothes and shopping. News flash, we don’t. Not all of us. Step out of your narrow minded views of the world and women. I have talked about it before. I just don’t care. I am not interested in fashion. But now…
Unfair?
When sharing one’s emotions like I do, out in the open, with no filter more than a half hearted proofreading (usually after publishing), there’s a risk that people misunderstand and, God forbid, judge, not me, but the ones I’m writing about. I realize that my children as well as my husband, who over the years have…
Zlatan is in da house
In our family we have entered a new era. The era of young boys smelling gooood. For Christmas and birthday our sons got things to make them smell favourably. And it sure smells. Walking into F’s room is like walking into a mist of early manhood. I do wonder if anything is actually sprayed on…
Call me a bought crybaby, I do not care
I know this is content for Pandora jewelry. And I do exactly what they want me to do with it – share it. And I don’t ever care much for gems. I cried before the first frame was done showing. Kids, there aint nothing better.
Two things
Have you read this brilliant post? Do and then return and read my post, which indirectly has nothing to do with the post more with the comments (or one of them). Brilliant text right? I have promissed myself to never have a bad conscience for “not have anything to wear” (I do of course, but…
Less charming
I know I am a person who both know and share less positive sides of myself. I don’t claim to be perfect, I sure do not feel nor do I strive for perfection (as perfection is subjective and very boring). But sure, maybe I am less good to share all the times when I yell…
I am Arne Hegerfors
Arne Hegerfors is a TV-host, sports and entertainment mainly, who has been around since I was a little girl. Realizing when watching the after talk to the MFF – Juventus Champions league game and listening and seeing Ola Wenström, the current TV-host, that he (and my generation) is now the same age as Arne Hegerfors,…
Spoiled
I have realized that if there is one thing I dislike more than spoiled children, and that is spoiled grown-ups. Even if I live in a country where I don’t need to fight for survival (thank God) there is something very untasteful with average intelligent people who can’t/won’t think for themselves. Or even worse, who…
Have you always been this cool?
I was actually asked this question last Saturday. The inquiring person were slightly influenced of wine (like that would have mattered). As I also was slightly under the influence, my first response was a smart ass “Of course (or similar, I can not really remember, but a cocky reply it was). The reply was followed by…
Flawless
I wouldn’t say that I am beauty pageant (thank God) material, but I do have the best skin ever. No acne – ever, very little wrinkles etc etc. Dermatologists and beauticians often congratulate me to my fantastic, flawless, porcelain skin. My skin is is great, except on an early Monday morning in mid February, when…
Looking good
Today I had some pictures taken of me for my web pages, by photographer, Emelie Ohlsson. So strange to stand in front of the camera. Even if I (I am one of the few) love to be in pictures I actually was a little nervous. Then it becomes very uplifting to read the following on…
What if?
What if more teenagers, or people in general wanted more. I do not mean more money or stuff for themselves. Watched a TV-show with the girl Malala from Pakistan, who was shot by talibans for standing up for her and all other girls’ right for education and freedom. I got so inspired by her and…
Congratulations all men
I must say it was a day of sadness the other day when Wentworth Miller released the news. Not so much that he is not coming to St Petersburg’s film festival. No, more so the fact that he is gays and I am not. On the otherhand me being gay, would’t help as he still…
Not enough superficial stuff
This blog is too serious and therefore need more posts about good looks. Therefore I say: “Hello golf, hello US masters and HELLO Adam Scott”. Golf can be very interesting and exciting and … nice
Pontus Höök & formal wedding pics
We did not invite anyone to our wedding, but as we wanted you to be able to share it with us, in one way or another, we invited Pontus Höök. Pontus is a Swedish NYC based photographer. His editorial style, totally opposite my own romantic, is one of the reasons I love his pictures and…
Who would have known
It should be obvious, especially since my last post was about my children getting older, that so do I. On the other hand I am not really up for the small but still irritating ailments that comes with age. Like bunions (sorry for the intimate sharing). Oh lord, what they hurt! Why wasn’t I told?…
Heels
B.K (= before kids) I always had good sized heels. Not the tallest of stilettos, but tall ones making my 172.5 cm over sea level reach at least 177 (my preferred hight). After last week’s dentist purchase (the one you get to do when they (the dentists) no longer offer you a sticker) I can’t…
OMG again
I am a frequent user of Facebook but is not specially fond of the “food pics” and now I just realized that I have posted one my self. I am sorry. It will not happen again.
The gift of flexibility, efficiency and natural beauty
This morning approx 5 minutes before the alarm for my morning meeting went off. I got a text from the colleauge I was meeting, informing me where the meeting was and the fact that it was 30 min BEFORE the time I was going for. Thereto I have a 25 min drive to where we…
Provoked
As a frequent reader of this blog, you will know that there are few things that provoke me more than the usage or, in this case, non-usage of the Swedish parent insurance… A post in the latest issue of Swedish mother glam magazine “Mama” made me tick, big time. A Swedish mother complained that she…
Being part of
I and a friend/business partner of mine just got the news that we have been an active part of helping someone reach her dream. That feels amazing!
Disclaimer
After seeing this I can’t really understand this old post of mine. Is it a bad photo editing or poor hair do, or maybe someone who have gone to see a surgeon (why?!)?
Me
This blog is not famous for its pictures of its creator. So I’ll share this. It is OK as the germans would have put it.
Hair
Only four more mornings with this hair. I CAN make it.
