So 2012 is ending. Each year, on this day, I try to summarize the year that passed and remind myself that I do not shit about the next coming – which is great! 2012 made me realize that I am on a good path, doing stuff I want and not only what is expected. I…

Stockholm
Tomorrow we are off. Me and the Mr Young. Fabian and I are off to a small week-end retreat just the two of us. Ghost walking in Gamla stan, Christmas market on Skansen, Dirty Dancing the musical, shopping and many, many fikas.I am o longing to be with my youngest all alone, giving him some…
1 December
1 December came with degrees below zero C. It really adds to the Christmas feeling.
I will get better
It is wired that I haven’t blog much lately. Since I have had so many viewpoints that “must” be shared. But instead I have edited pictures, networked, instragramed, started with the Christmas decorations and other important stuff. I I haven’t even been a great mother even. But I will be back. Soon. With extreme viwepoints.
Pics
Updating my website with some new pictures. Pictures from the fall.
Quiet
Quiet is the best word to describe my blog at the moment. Hectic is the best word to describe my life at the moment.
The power of man
Yesterday I witnessed something powerful. At Parken arena, with 50.000 waiting for Coldplay to start one of our friends decided: “He was strating a wave”. Said and done, with the help of us other 7 he started and after a while it continued. And shortly the ENTIRE Parken arena did it. Fantastic. As I have…
Hurray
Today’s heading could refer to today’s outing. Because it has been really great and I will share more later. BUT I just found out that the editor in Chief for my favourite magazine (that was put down due to tough business conditions in the magazine industry), Your life. Now is back with a new project…

Denmark
Today the family went for a short outing to Denmark,to say the least the parents were not really up to wake up at 07.30. But a wonderful day with the boyz I had.
What a difference
30 minutes makes in the morning. One gets the time to clean out (a very much needed) fridge for example…
What was I thinking
To be loyal to your partner is a good thing, but sometime I wonder if there are no limits to this loyalty. As now. I realized that it is three more weeks until me vacation starts (just to be loyal with the MR when he get’s his). And three weeks is today a very very…
6 years old
Finally the day was here (Monday), when he turned 6. He has been counting down since March… A good day I think he thought. Love you to death.
19 years of love
Today, 19 years ago, I kissed the father of my children for the first time. Time flies when you have fun. Now Sweden’s first game in Euro2012. Go Sweden!
Remember
To not take things out of context. To teach yours there many screwed up people out there, and all yours can do is to stand up for them selves and to not accept false accusations. NEVER!
A promisse
I have promissed myself to not post anything intill I returen my Liebster award. And so be it.
I am not dead
No I am not dead. I am just enjoying life too much too be bloging. See you soon.
I know
My blog sucks right now. Have a number of unfinished drafts. Soon. Soon I’ll be better, I promisse. Keep the faith brothers and sisters out there ;).
Where does the time go?
At the moment my life is ridiculously stressful. I really feel that I am about the hit my max. This is the time where I must use my learnings from the past and allow myself to let go of the accelerator. So IKEA days are hectic and thereto I have so much to do during…
Fashion thoughts again
This time I swear it will be different. This season I will know what will is hot in the world if fashion. I will. I will…
Norway
I pray that I never will be in the situation many Norwegian parents are in today. I notice that yesterday’s attacs in Norway have a hard time to sink into my consiousness. Love and respect one another.
Gearing up
Yesterday I ended a project (even though it for technical reasons can’t be called project internally… yes, it is important to focus on the real business critical things… ) that I have been running since mid December. It has been great fun with great people. On Monday I’ll start in a new one. Not running…
A good day
I am in the end of my project delivery. I have therefore decided to prolong my week with work tomorrow, instead of being off as I usually am. No, worries I will take another day off. Today I had really a really good day, feeling that I (the project) could deliver many of the things…
Absolutely nothing
Landed at Copehnhagen airport at 9 pm yesterday. Good trip. Apparently Delft is so much closer than Lisbon ;). I was the only one, of my traveling companions (well, almost the only one on the plane) checking in my luggage. When leaving Lisbon I learnt the hard way why you check-in luggage if you have…
Things to celebrate and things to don’t
Yesterday I once again became aware of the importance of good leaders/managers. I am getting a new one for an assignment and does she make me motivated, or what? By helping me out, not in a life or death situation, but still in a situation that is important to me, she have recieved a very…
Right here, right now
… that is where I am, NOW. I have a hard time understanding people who always need to be going somewhere. Doing something. Always. Of course you should be developing and heading somewhere, but that doesn’t mean that one have be doin’ stuff every freaking moment! Like now, I kick back and relax, watching Top…
Getting down
With something. My body doesn’t feel well at all. This was not how I planned to spend the weekend. Far away from the hardcore training, shopping, dinner parties with champagne during hors d’oeuvres. Well, maybe not that much hard core training but I was not planning to feel fatigue when hitting the couch after dinner….
Writer’s cramp
I want to say something. I just don’t know what. I believe that it is wise to not say anything. So I do just that.
Social media cont.
I found this while browsing after naming conventions. I do find it very interesting in the context of freedom of speech. About social media policies
Not OK
What is happening right now is making me feel not OK. I’ll try another approach tomorrow.
Tired
Today I am grateful for only one thing and that is the fact that I have a bed to go to sleep in.
Housewife Friday
Baking is a great activity to do with your kids. Since I believe that we might have a future chef/baker in the house (possibly waiter, or waitress as he says), we did some baking today. Cinamonnerolls. National Swedish bun (?). Later he wanted to compose a soup. Really disgusting if you should believe Sam. And…
Heat
It is clear that humans and animals have more in common then one would first think. Our little four-legged (a description that should make everyone exclude me) bitch is in heat (again!) and she is really not her self. 😦 She doesn’t eat, not even her liver candy (yummy) and is just miserable. No,…
September
This gal has been one of my favourites since 2006. She was in my iPod when running the 1o k race back then. Now she’s out with a English version of her cover of a Swedish hip hop … song (do hip hoppers do songs?)
It is better today
Yesterday was the first morning in ages (or in5 days to be accurate) that I had to go up at 5.30 am. And Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee was I tired. I acctually fell asleep by the kichen table. I say I am 34 years too old for that. Today was much better. Rise and shine and out on…
Another good day
I keep on mentioning it, but it is because it is SOOOO important. To enjoy every single day. Sure, some days are easier to enjoy than others, but still. I have heard Oprah talk about a journal, where you each day write at least three things one is greatful over. I think I’ll start one. To be…
I really tried
So, been off for some days. Holiday season’s last shiveing days. Anyhow, during my three day work week last week, I felt that I had a cold coming up. So I really tried to relax. You know, the best way to get ill, is to relax. And I really wanted it out of my system….
Got to find it
Last year at this point my coach asked me to figure out what motivates me. Don’t think I have found it yet. Now, more than ever I need to find out in order to find direction. Life can be so hard sometimes. Any suggestions?
Birthday and 2011
Sam’s birthday is on the second to last day of the year. Yes, we know bad planning etc, etc. He was planned for the 2 January, but C-sections are neither done on New Years Eve or New Year’s day and not on the expected day of delivery, so there’s the story. One is not allowed…
Flexible
Life is a journey and following the same pattern day after day is not living, right?Although, I can understand people who like it when things are the same, after all changes not decided by oneself takes a little longer to adjust to. BUT things always turn out, to something. Usually that something is really good….
Our star boy
St Lucia the most Swedish of all Italian traditions was celebrated on Monday. On Tuesday kindergarten had their celebration. I got Fabian to be stjärngosse (star boy). This was apparently a good choice of me since the stjärngosse quite much ressembles a wizard! Darlings they were. All of them.
Thinking
Today Marianne and I are thinking. Hopefully there will be a result. I’ll let you know.
TV time
After a Friday filled with work, vet’s appointment and concert and a Saturday with more work and julbord with FB miljöisolering (who soon is having a new web page) I am going to enjoy my DVD box of Solsidan. A TV series that perfectly captures how many Swedes happens to be.
I know I am on the right track
People who doesn’t know me, that maybe only “knows” me by reading this blog, might say, after reading this post: “But shut up already!” Maybe some that really knows me, will say that to… no, they won’t. I just looked at the talk show “Skavlan” which is Scandinavia’s (no we are not one country, but…
I am here
Just wanted to let you know that I am here. But at the time there are some Christmas prepartions to do and jobs to be done. Jobs are dropping in to “Moments by Louise” and it is so much fun. Just need to remind me that to do it in my own pace.
Energy
It is great to have flow. To feel that the more you accomplish the more energy you get. I have a friend/business partner that I meet pretty often (like tonight) and it amazing how some one can give you energy just by being!
