Thursday summer came to my part of the country. Today we had like a pre-vacation day with breakfast outside and some gardening. Tonight we went down to the soccer pitch and the boys enjoyed themselves in the water sprinkler. Water is so much fun!

Fabbe is back
Picked up Fabian at my parents' today. Great to have him home again. Fantastic how much I can love our kids. I love it. In the car home we listened to his favourite music – volume tinnitus high! Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Mother’s day
Today is mother's day in Sweden. My parents and sister came an we went to a awful disorganised restaurant with good food. I am soooo full! Then Fabian went home with them! I am still in chock. This is the first time in his soon four year old life that he is not with any…
Why
Pedals Sometime I can't create blogs posts by clicking on "create" button. Why? And why can't I (sometimes) edit an already posted post? By the way, I have a great taste in music 🙂 Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Sometimes
Sometimes I get this really strong sensation that I am missing it. I am missing that something, that something which is so important for my life. At the same time I can't really put my finger on it. What is it I THINK I am missing? Today got this really strong feeling that I MUST move abroad. I must…

I am great
On an overall we (people in general) are very bad at giving ourselves credit, so therefore: "I am fantastic since I have the endurance to yet again take a 06.00 am morning jog, today 4 ks." Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Silent nights
So, once again half or more than half of the family slumbered off on the couch tonight. The last member did some self chosen (!!!) chores in the kitchen ( I'm talking about Sam, we are all in chock). Tulip We finally have had some good days with sun and degrees closer to 20 C….
Small things
I try to embrace the small things in life that makes me happy. Like just now. I found a song that I heard on the radio a couple of times. It was a danish song and singer (which is NOT very common). I thought I new the name of the song and googled and googled,…
The weekend in pics
Family clown So, as we are getting closer to a new weekend, I want to share some from last week. We visited friends on Österlen. I love that part of our country. If you visit Sweden you must go (at least in the summer) filled with small coffee houses and artists shops. Then a visit at…
Proud
Today, I got extremely proud over myself. I just wanted to let me know that. Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Turn it down, I’ll get tinnitus
On the way to the supermarket this evening this song was played on the radio. Since mom (read I) was quick to take a walk down memory lane, I turned up the volume a bit. Erasure – Love to hate you I am blessed with kids who like to listen to "real" music and not…

Note to all liars
Some people are notorious liars, some are maybe more the kind tells lies not to hurt people (so VERY thoughtful of them). If you are a member of any of these groups and active on the social media scene, please remember that it is not very intelligent to tell a lie and then to go…
Stupid, stupid, stupid
I am all for sex equality. I would be stupid if I wasn't. But sometimes I do wonder if we (women) do not bring some of it to ourselves, by being stupid… So, what do I base this hypothesis on then? Well, the simple fact of not being able to follow orders. Well, not even…
Today
Today I did something really funny (not ha ha ha funny, more self developing funny). I had a photo shoot for (and with) my girlfriend Marianne's company. We had a lot of fun, Iearnt too much and I was really pleased with the result. A good day. Although I should have spent it for gardening….
Gardening
In Swedish we "put" potatoes, I have no idea what you do with them in English. Plant them? Anyway, Fabian and I put some in the ground last weekend, to get some more, eco grown, locally produced ones for Midsummer. And here, my little accountant. Well, I am sure he won't become that. But he is…

Runaway
Just went dog hunting, and this is before 08.00 am a Sunday morning. Our new member is getting a bad habit of running away from our garden…Better check the area which we believe uses for her break frees. She hadn't gotten far, just to the neighbours, but still. Read and post comments | Send to…
Friends
This weekend has all be about friends. Friday, we, the parents and the kids, were not very good friends – Fredagsmyset (Cosy Friday) got cancelled. Saturday we went to friends and met old friends which we have not seen for a while. We had a wonderful evening, all the ways to the driveway when got…
Tragic
Is it not tragic when people are so displeased with their own life that they need to find stuff in yours that they don't like. From now on I say "no thank you" to these people and "have a good life in Self-pityville, I will not be visiting some time soon". Time for dog-walking! Read…
Development talk
Today, we went to Sam's development talk at school. His teacher updated us on how he is doing both academically and socially. Right now things are under control I must say. The fun thing is that the entire class is doing exceptionally well for 6 year old small people. In a very Swedish way I think…
OK, I guess it is time
To bring on the news. Have a look here, I am going professional. For all non Swedish speaking people – sorry, but you get the picture :-): The name would translate to "Moments by Louise". http://www.ogonblickavlouise.se Skärmavbild Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Some pics
The King As said, the boys have been at their grandma's and grandpa's over the weekend. Gave me and Tobias some time off. On Friday we had some friends over for dinner and we didn't get to bed until 03.00 am. That is a very good achievement from two parents of two. The Saturday was…
Today was gardening
This morning we (my man and I, the kids are at grandma's and grandpa's) spent in the garden. He oiling our patio, while I was turning dirt in the vegetable plot. Spring is here and I am loving every minute of it. Gardening is great when recovering from a 03.00 am party (the guests left…
Double standard
Right now I am not what you would say "in balance" with my employer. I don't know if it is me or "them" (but I sure know what they would say to that question), but really, I find more and more things that annoys me at the office. I know, it is a clear sign…
Beach findings
I "escaped" from my father-in-law to get some few minutes by my self by the beach. This is what I found. Easter is over and we have survived even if our new family member is in heat and you can't see the smallest sign that our male is soon turning 12 (we are talking about…
Life findings?
The other day I finally took the decision. I can therefore openly declare that not only I am bad at it, I am also very open with the fact that I am pretty uninterested in it – fashion. In other words there is a reason to why I look the way I do. But I…

Thursday again
For those of you who have missed it, I just want to remind you that it is Thursday today. This means that my weekend has come and tomorrow comes yours! Have a wonderful weekend. Mine will be filled with: shopping for the dinner party we are throwing tomorrow, bank visit, dinner party, "babysitting" for the…

The Friday’s off
I think I might have mentioned it before, but it is worth mentioning again "I love not working Fridays." It is not so much not working, it is more about the ease the Thursday nights give you. Read and post comments | Send to a friend
New learnings
Evelina V After my career coach, I think that Emelie is the one who has taught me the most about myself this year, and that is only by existing. Emelie is a brilliant photograper, who besides taking pictures is teaching people in the art of photography. As side-kick and assistant she has Evelina. Evelina is…

Puppy
We might get a new member to the family very soon. A breeder is looking for someone to be "feed host" (I have absolutely no idea what the word is in English, this was a translation straight off from Swedish). Never mind, this means that you take care of the puppy and the breeder has…
Dancing
But we have not been ill ALL winter. These pics were taken one week back, when Fabian and I had that fantastic day (I do not think he wanted to move out even once that day…). The weather was great so he did some dancing before shoveling some snow. Dancing Sunshine Read and post comments…

Today I had my last session with my coach. It has been four really good months and also this last hour I found more opportunities about myself that I can work on. Just as I have learnt that very little in life remains constant just because you once have acknowledge it (although I would love it…

Weekend almost over
Weekends usually goes really fast, this one was no exception. Friday was a great day to remember. Fabian and I were spending the morning and bits of the afternoon together, just him and me. We went to the bank, bought a birthday present, had a fika, bought new sneakers and went grocery shopping. We did…
Failed
Last week I got my eyes checked. Almost two years ago I faced the destiny of getting glasses. The chock back then was tremendous. I saw glasses as a sign of weakness (I am not saying that I ever been especially smart). But that chock could not measure the one to last week's verdict. Not…
