I think I am in two times zones… I am a little tired all day and fall quickly asleep almost everywhere, like on a concert, and it was not bad at all, quite to opposite. But I have a hard time getting to sleep. Sorry about my poor blogging these days. Naturally it has to…
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…
Elvis and the Keys
We are about to arrive in sunny and warm Key West. Elvis with Jail House Rock on the radio. Can’t become more American than this.
Heading south
After some great days in Orlando we are about to head south to the Keys tomorrow. Life is grand.
20 yrs later
In June next year we have been together for 20 yrs. We celebrate it in advance wih a rooftop wedding in DA city. New York. To our help we had Pontus Höök, who took this picture and like a million more. So looking forward to see the resultat of his job. Read his blog here….
Thank you
A big thank you to the author, actor, creator etc etc Jonas Gardell. For writing “Never wipe tears without gloves“. A fantastic tvseries of love in 80’s gay world. Fantastic and leaving me with so many thoughts and aspects of life.
Nothing really happens
My life contains work at the moment. 40 hrs a week, or actually more. Complained to the Mr that we do not really socialize at the moment. But the the neighbour came by so that is nor entirely true. Have a good Friday all.
… And by the way
As my last post stated. We have turned pages and start off fresh. But do really my sons think I turned 78… But it is the thought that counts right?
And everything is forgotten
Yesterday’s not so appreciated celebration of my birth was forgotten today.
Birthday and all that
(picture from pinterest) Three hours left of my 38 birthday. I will never ever claim (don’t know if I ever said the opposite) that birthdays are not important. Especially not mine. I love my birthday. U do not forget birthdays. Unless you happen to be the adult male living under the same roof as myself….
Small talk
Just finished a small fika with a friend and ex colleague. Good stuff. Now time for what I am best at. Start the fire place, lit some candles and do nothing.
True happiness
True happiness might be hard to find. But when you do, it is simple. Like the fact that both of your children enjoy school and seem to be follow without any trouble. I am blessed!
Pics
Updating my website with some new pictures. Pictures from the fall.
Monday
Maybe I should get over it. Get over it and get up. The Mr’s alarm went off almost an hour ago and I, I was planning to sleep for an hour. Didn’t happen so let’s go up and kick-off this Monday!
All you need is love
Tired, as one only can be after driving in 1.5 hrs through the worst of rains. Just after flying in from Amsterdam after 3 days of meetings. Coming home to the best of worlds. Two children so happy to see me (!) and who continue to show their affection through kisses and cuddles all evening….
Freedom of speech
I am a strong advocate for freedom of speech. It doesn’t matter how stupid the comment is, you have the right to express it. But if you do you need to be able to stand behind your viewpoint. When you choose to anonymously comment someone else’s viewpoint in a forum you must the smallest of…
Yesterday
Yesterday, was mine and Sam’s date night. To tell the truth it was more me wanting it then he needing it. After dinner, somewhat stressed we went to Rock the ballet, a little less prestigious form of ballet with different rock classics. Sam liked it a lot. He got somewhat bored in end of the…
Tick tock
It is getting late and a new working week starts tomorrow. Was shooting some pics today, and I am soooooo pleased over the result. Not so pleasing was the total melt down our oldest, who I had a fantastic great date with the other night, had just before dinner. I guess that is life. Good…
Our soccerplayer
I had some old pics laying on the desktop, that I better share for the world. If you would like to see him in action I have this clip to show you on youtube.
Shame
Just finished watching “Bully”. Screw all adults wherever in our society, who does not take a loud and active stand against any form of bullying. How small it might seem. SHAME on you!
To see
It is so easy. In theory. To be a parent. All they need is to be seen. To be confirmed. I am happy and proud that I have fund my way, in my everyday. Don’t missunderstand, my children don’t get there will through. Quite the opposite. But I respect their feelings.
Date night
Yes, I know. A date night is supposed to be with your husband/wife/partner. But on Saturday I will have one with my oldest. I am taking Sam to the theatre watch a dance show. He would like to be able to do cool dance moves but no real desire to learn himself. But I still…
The good parent and all that
Life, what an exhausting little journey. During my years as a mother, I have come to the conclusion that it is my role, as a parent, to coach my sons after their personal conditions and character. I have also decided that I shall do this in a way that strengthens them and not by, the…
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?…
OMG!
On our way to the store this afternoon F, the little one, starting to sound words on his brother’s Donald Duck magazine. WHAT?! WHEN?! HOW?! and WHY?! My babies, my small babies are getting big and so soon!
Practice makes perfect
Words can probably not describe the Mr’s happiness that at least one of his offsprings have taken football to his heart (at least for now). Ever so often they go into the garden to practice. Fabians shots has become better, both stronger and more precision. I see the dream in the Mr’s eyes. One day…
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…
Never ever
I sometimes amuse myself to look through my blog and what I did/where (mentally) I was exactly one, two, three, four years ago. Apparently I have never blogged on the 12 of September before. Never mind. I had a life and reading from it a pretty good one. Then as now (jeep, now I will…
Time to let go
I am sick of it. The cold, especially the cough that is irritating and comes at the worst times and NEVER stops. And then the headache that comes with the cough. Arrrhhhhhhh! But then we have the little baby that make you happy (even if he is not that happy anymore, but still cute).
I am on
Just so u know. I am at instagram. Follow me at @lopo2001.
To tell u the truth
I am what I am. And do you know what. I am pretty fine with that. I met an old colleague (a friend that was my colleague some time ago, not that she is old… just for the record) for a coffee the other day. We have not met much since we parted as colleagues…
What a day
It’s been awfully quite here the last week/weeks… I have started the new assignment to make the internal communication platform for the Outdoor launch (starting February) and apparently it is taking the better out of me :). I got a late (app. 1 year) sneak peek of the range the other day and I like…
Let’s try it again
My clip of our friend who managed get the full Parken arena (50.000) in Copenhagen do the wave just before Coldplay’s concert is far from ready… But http://www.Charlottebundgaard.dk has a clip from it. It didn’t work earlier today. We sit about 25 m to her left. I actually hear my self at one time (at…
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…
A piece of heaven
Just returned from a short trip to Denmark’s capital, Copenhagen. The reason for our trip were Chris, Jonny, Guy and Will. The four awesome members of a group called Coldplay. It was a long time I was at a concert of such celebrate. For me Coldplay is foremost subtle. But the show yesterday was nothing…
Love
True love is simple, it could be to prepare tonight’s dinner even if you are not home your self.
Sale
Friends of mine have summer sale in their web shop to be fresh this fall. Go buy! http://www.kanelocayenne.blogspot.se/2012/08/rea-50-i-butiken.html
Time in forrest
Today, a very tired Mr and one not so tired me, took the brothers and the dogs for a forrest walk. I never been the biggest advocate for the forrest, I am a more a beach and ocean person. But I have to say together with the Mr, the kids and the dogs, also the…
Time flies
Had a party booked and no babysitter… What to do, what to do. Why not leave the kiddos at home alone for a while… Said and done and went perfect! I am home now and shortly thereafter they fell asleep. My boys ate getting big! 💜
Concentration
Today it is hard. Hard to concentrate on the things I need to do. I have loads of pic to deliver (and I will) and another bunch to edit (which I will do) but parts of me wants (!?!?!) to clean as we are having people over for dinner tomorrow. And the strongest part of…
Fun!
I posted one picture on my business’ Facebook page (www.facebook.com/ogonblickavLouise ) and am just amazed of the effect and thankful for all nice comments. Add another one here.
School
Today school started. Fabian was all in as it was his first day at school. Sam was more reluctant if still positive. When the day ended it was quite alright anyway.
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…
Why I am happy
There are many reasons to be happy. I have found mine. And here they are:
Good food
If you are in need of some good food, made by someone who knows her stuff. Get in contact with “Maddes kök”. She’ll fix you anything. 0430-28300, 0703-219638 or info@maddeskok.se
Some more pics…
… from our Nimis outing today. Great family time, I can really recommend it, if your company is not too young (or too old). Sam took the opportunity to praise the artist himself to the great artwork.
Right here, right now
We’re at Nimis. Just for the record, I am so happy.
