Tomorrow it is time to get the boyz from grandma.’s and grandpa’s. Missed them big time, especially the first day. But we made the most out of the evenings without them. Movie Monday, dinner out (incl 500 km bike tour, well it felt like it…) at Skepparstugan yesterday and drinks out in Båstad tonight. Summer…

Time
It is not long now. Not long at all!
Sweet Sunday
After some hours of working the lazy Dock/Persson family took the bikes and left for a in the moment outing. It is great to be able to do now when Fabian has a bigger bike and can manage a faster tempo. All in all we did 11 km with two sporadic stops with friends along the…
Life
In the distance I hear the cover band blasting “We’re not gonna take it”. Going to bed after a summer’s party in the beautiful Österlen with the best of people. The Mr is enjoyong himself dearly and it makes me so happy to see him. Love to everyone out there, and remember, it doesn’t become…
Thank you for this day
Had the best day today. So good that if the rest of the summer will be crap, I will remember this summer as fantastic. Left a very rainy and grey Skottorp, for an almost as grey but not rainy Höllviken. Friend from high-school (i.e a looooong time ago) and children was the destination. Conversation (or…
Money & happiness
I am convienced that money can make you happy. But to have money and be happy you have to have some other things first, like … self worth. Reading the tabloids of the tragic death of Eva Rausing, makes me realize that in her case money did not make her happy, but it was not…
Scary
It is scary when you start to think too much about how false people are. Really, really scarry. Another scarry thing to think about is how many misstakes you will be able to get away with, before you screw up your children for all future.
H.A.P.P.Y
Happiness is to sit in your own garden and watch the love of your life getting his butt kicked by your offsprings.
Filled up
This evening I filled up. My tank is 100% full, which will help me many MANY times the time ahead. Took the boys for a bike ride picking some Midsummer flowers. The weather was amazing, and both the boys and I were at ease. I actually thought, “If I die tomorrow, I’ll die happy.” But…
Enjoy
I am working hard to be happy. I am a true believer that one way to become happy is to live in the moment. To stop where-ever and when-ever you can when life is good. Right now, my life is good. Beautiful summer’s evening (the very best Swedish one) sibblings are playing (not fighting, that…
Intelligence or the lack of it
To come home, lay down in the lap of your love, get the best cuddle in your hair and dooze off for a minute or 30 is NOT the most intelligent. Best for sure, but not intelligent. Because when it is time for that real bedtime you are not so tired anymore… Just saying.
Tough
Today school ended for this semester. And even if we are not able to give our sweethearts 10 weeks of summer holiday, we still can provide them some lazy mornings. Starting tomorrow. Sweden just lost their second game in the Euro2012 play off’s. This means that we are out. Tough, but good time to remind…
Angel
I’ve got two of them, here’s my biggest one. (somewhat long haired, but angels have that).
Exhausted
Totally exhausted that is what I am. Shot a wedding today (wonder if this is the correct wording…). As always a little nervous (that is good I believe) and then the weather…. Rain or no rain? I have been following the weather forecast all week. Going from R-A-I-N, to some rain, to no rain. We…
Soccer it is
Yesterday the Euro2012 started and the Mr is of course H-A-P-P-Y! But something that makes him (and me) even more happy is that Fabian have shown a growing interest for the sport. On the National day Fabian were invited to play a mini-tournament with one year older guys! Fabian did really good and the team…
Reminder
Just a short reminder to self, to skip the socialmedia thing and GO TO SLEEP. Now.
Pissed off
Today I got very upset at work. I guess there is a risk (a very small one, but still) to tell you why. But I choose the path of freedom of speech. After all, I have already told my employer that I am upset and why. So IF they by any microscopic chance read this…
Mum I love you
Today (soon yesterday), it was Mother’s day. I just want to say that I have the best mum. Love you. For all the advise, time and effort you have given me. Love you.
Oh, what a day
Yesterday night ended with the awesome win for Loreen and Sweden in ESC. The whole family watched the voting, which usually is sooooo boring, and we screamed after each full point she got! Congrats to Loreen, people like you make me so proud to be Swedish. Today was Mother’s day but for most it was…
F as in Friday and film
Now it is here, my short on-line film for my photography business. I love it. The film had not been possible without: Tim Ciasto and his Visualife.me. So if you need a film for personal (wedding perhaps) or business reasons he is the one to give the assignment to. Beautiful Eva and her children, who did…
Heads up
On Friday I will premier my short on-line commercial for my photography business “ögonblick av Louise”. I am SO happy with the result! The film was made my by the brilliant Tim Ciasto and http://www.visulife.me. He should definitely stop his day job and get more into this filming business. He is creative, cares for details,…
Up in gear
Time: 12.31 (am) Status: Wide awake Reason for status: unfortunatly not for napping away all day. Things I am proud of: my children my partner. My children are so different but I so proud over both of them. Fabian played soccer cup all day (more or less) and didn’t win a single game, but fought…
Film day
Today, we (I and with the help of some friends) are going to make a film. A sort of commercial for my photography business. It is going to be exciting. I feel some butterflies in my belly. Have you made a commercial lately?
Zoo
Went to a small zoo today. Especially Sam LOVES animals, that’s for sure. Followed by crash fika at a friend’s. Ending the day with a surprise invitation to the playground and a marathon of Dowton Abbey, brittish costume series I missed. Tomorrow it is film time!
School
Today parents to the children of pre-schoolers were invited to visit the school. So we did. Fabian is very excited and a little nervous what is about to come. Mum is surprised and somewhat heart-broken about the pace time flies.
My busfrö
Fabian has started to scare me. It is very easy prank as I am easily scared and the effect is approx 400%, I scream and I scream loud! Neadless to say, he loves it!
Have I told you?
How much I love my children? If not, I will now. After dinner tonight it was time for the usual dog walk. Our youngest was joinung us with his kick-bike. As he opened the gate our lively Ridgeback sneaked out and off he went down the road, in a speed only seen when chasing lions…
Wonderful
The weekend and day can be summarized in obe word “wonderful”. Friends, family, mr Love, children good weather and great photography. What more could a girl ask for? Me and Sam had our SSS (Sam’s social Sunday) and was going for Belgian waffels. But the place to get them hadn’t open so it became: ice-cream,…
No 2
Here it is. Second rubarb pie of the year. This time on own harvest!
Fly me
Everybody who knows me, knows I love technology (as long as it works). I finally got to fly with Norwegian airlines, that has wifi on board. I shouldn’t need to be off line for this 1:10 flight!
Worth mentioning again
I know I said it before, but it is worth mentioning again. I love to live close to the ocean. The beach becomes the best playground where my childrens imagination never ends (quite the opposite to what it does when used in our garden…).
Rubarb
Here it is, the first rubarb pie of the year! All thanks to the Mr’s grandmother (our are a bit late due to our garden project).
Tired
One good, or even great thing to be pregnant or breastfeed, is, that you do not drink. Good company, lots of wine and an afterpart(!) turned the clock into close to 4:00 am before we managed to get to bed. This had the consequence that the Sunday was spent doing nothing. But it rained more…
Sun
Went to Malmö today (yesterday, it is after midnight after all). What a wonderful day ot was. Sum, sun and sun!
Good help
It is good when they get older. They can help out with things. Like getting a Pokemon off the roof.
Every last drop
When school starts in August, Fabian’s and mine lazy Fridays will be gone. As I try to live here and now we truly appricate the moment and make the most out of it. Like today, no milk in the fridge became an excellent oppertunity to get fresh breakfast buns from the local bakery. Enjoy life…
Eyes wide open
Just watched “A mother’s courage: Talking back to autism“. A great documentary about what autism really is. Besides the obvious, to be reminded of the fact that we all should be happy for what we’ve got, especially if health (whatever that means) is one factor. It was also a great eye-opener of how increadible narrow-minded…
Circus
Been to the circus today. My kids first (!) time (yepp, I know terrible mother). I think it is due to my own memory of it, we never gone. Remembered (I think this actually is my first memory ever) being about six years old and looking forward to the circus visit. Especially looking forward to…
Progress
At the garden work goes forward. Much thanks to the Mr. Love him especially much for that.
Bad things
When things are tough, I remind myself that they always could get worse.
Happy Easter
Happy easter all.
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!
Future
I am at an exciting stage when it comes to my own businesses… I try very hard to not to make any conclusions just yet… Hard…
Not compare
Must remind myself “not compate only be inspired”. Not compare, not compare, NOT COMPARE!!!! Only be inspired…
Tribute
As a libra I need balance. So to talk in the other direction of last posts I must say “thanks God” to those parents who do set boundaries, who do take the fight and discussion with their 9 year old. Who realize that loving your kids, does also include that they are not perfect and…
