Ah i\u00b4m back!
The feeling, ney the bliss, of sleeping in my own bed hit me last night. Oh joy and happiness!!!
I have a fab job, a good manager and a fab team to work with. All this makes the long hours worth it. I have since the 23\/5 been to: Philadelphia, Baltimore, Helsinki, Visby, Nyn\u00e4shamn, Varmd\u00f6, Vendels\u00f6 and Stockholm.<\/a> I have also during this time attended 2 weddings. My brother in law and his fab Emma as well as my parents has tied the knot. All excellent events.
Pics will be posted during the weekend.
So i\u00b4m tired. Half dead and dying not to do a thing. To lay on the sofa and drink a glass of wine.
Chill out with my Wallstone and just appreciate life.<\/p>\n

Last weekend was Midsummers and this means, for those not familiar with our traditions, that we eat about the same food as at Christmas and easter, drink snaps, sing silly snaps-songs, dance around a midsummers pole and make some poor sod play the guitar so the rest of us can sing. Not well..but sing.
This year Wallstone and me celebrated with my older sister, her husband, their 3 kids and a bunch of other rather nice but silly people.
My niece Josephine (5 in august) is my hearts delight. She has taught me some new ways of waking up. If Aunty doesnt wake up by a LOUD whisper “-Aaaaaaaaaunty” you simply poke her cheek really<\/span> hard.
If that doesn\u00b4t work, no more mr niceguy.
Two small fingers up ur nostrils will without a doubt wake u up any day of the week.
Then she complained that there was snot in my nose.
OH COME ON!!!!!
I patiently explained that “thats where snot lives”
…her answer “- I wouldnt have put my finger there if you had told me that!!” Who am i to mess with an argumentation like that?<\/p>\n

There are a few people who really deserves praise, and if prais is deserved, prais should be given. So here goes:<\/p>\n

C & G :<\/span> You two are wonderful. It\u00b4s true magic to have friends like you. THANK u for taking such good care of me over the pond. We look forward to seeing you both over here soon!!!!!!!<\/p>\n

Mum & Dad:<\/span> I doubt u guys read my blog..but hey, hope is the last to leave us. To finally see you take the big plunge is one of the best days of my life. I love you both very much!<\/p>\n

Sis & Charlie: <\/span>What a wonderful midsummer, Thank you!!! Am so happy that we got to spend some quality time with you and the children. Magic. May i become as good of a parent as u guys are.<\/p>\n

Mr Judo & Ms IcookLikeaPro: <\/span>Vendels\u00f6 SPA Resort rocks!!! Thank u both for taking care of my at that time broken soul. Lets not <\/span>wait another 15 years…<\/p>\n
