Started my day with a doctors-appointment to check up the mark I have on my leg. He suspected I have a borrelia infection so he prescribed antibiotics. Oh well. Good thing I got it checked.
After a long day at work I met up with my two nieces and treated them to a nice dinner at the Italian restaurant in the same building as I work. We had a lovely time and they bring me so much energy. I hope we can do it again sometime soon.
My hubby was a hero and picked us up in town since I was bringing a couple of computer screens with me. We have replaced screens at work which opened up an opportunity to use the old ones at home to simplify work from home. Great.
New purse
Today I moved my life to my new purse – it was a challenge because it is a lot smaller than my old one. So, I had to re-organize and re-think but I’m quite happy with the result. Don’t need to carry around so many things so maybe this was a good way to stop.
Went to look for a new duvet with my oldest this afternoon. We washed his old one a while back and it got ripped so he has used another duvet for a while but is not happy with that one. Unfortunately the duvet he wanted was sold out but they will get new ones in next week. So, mission almost completed.
Pie
Me and my hubby decided to drive over to the Mall of Scandinavia and had a pasta lunch at Vapiano. It was ok but not as good as we had hoped for.
I saw a purse there the last time we visited and I wanted to go back to see if they still had it. And they did. So, now I have myself a new purse. Yeah. Hopefully it will be a good purchase. It is a lot smaller than my previous one, so it will be some getting used to. But, the old one was a bit too big so this might be better.
We stopped at my parents on the way back home and mom had made an apple pie – mmm. Delicious! Thank you!
Crumble
Slept really poorly again – need to break this somehow.
A really lovely sunny day off to enjoy. Ran our regular Saturday errands. This afternoon I had a massage appointment – lovely. Just what I needed. Four weeks until next one. Nice to have something to look forward to.
Made an apple crumble when I got back home. Also made a fish casserole for me and hubby. Our youngest had the leftovers from last nights dinner and our oldest is with his friends tonight.
Another week
What a strange week – so many elements. Finally Friday and a whole weekend to enjoy.
Picked up some groceries on my way back from work. My bus passed this gorgeous tree and I just had to take a photo of it. I love fall!
Made a ribeye steak with gratin for dinner – mmm. Served with veggies and a nice glass of red for me.
Crashed in our corners – tonight we decided to watch the new Netflix-movie “Strul”. We’ll see if it’s any good.
Last goodbye
Today we said our last goodbye to my hubby’s aunt and Godmother. It was a nice service with a lot of friends and relatives attending. Nice to be able to pay her our respect and be part of this special moment.
We had taken the whole day off which I think was a good idea. This way we could focus and didn’t have any interruptions with work-things all day. Great.
It has been raining a lot all day today and it was a challenge to get to the church and the gathering afterwards. Now we have cuddled up in our corners – tomorrow is a workday again. Thank God it’s Friday.
First game
Our ladies managed to qualify for the Women’s Champions League this year. Amazing.
Tonight they are playing the first game in the group play. We have St Pölten from Austria, Manchester City from the UK and FC Barcelona from Spain in our group. The best two teams in the group moves up to the quarter finals.
Tonights game is towards St Pölten in our home arena. Wish we could be there but fortunately they are showing the game on national TV so we can still see it.
And what a great game we could enjoy! Hammarby was the better team and won the game 2-0 in front of almost 8000 supporters. Yeah!
Long day
Back to work again and a long day today with plenty of things to do. I’m exhausted already – the new energy didn’t last very long, lol. Quite a productive day though so that was good.
Today I wore my boots for the first time this fall. Decided that summer is over now and time for the next round of clothes and footwear. It is going to rain the rest of this week – hopefully the prognosis is wrong and that it will be better than the forecast says. But, it’s just to dress accordingly.
Back home
The day to pack up and drive back to the real world came faster than we all wanted. But, we have had a great couple of days in our paradise and it was so nice to be here with my parents. Just spend time together and enjoying each other’s company.
The drive back to the city went without any problems and it was so nice to hug my boys when we got home.
Today we are celebrating 29 years of marriage and my hubby surprised me with a gift. I had bought him a little something too. Next year we have a big anniversary which deserves something extra special. We’ll see what we will decide.
Drive
Another lovely sunny day – what a weekend we have had! We decided to go for a drive along the coast and stopped at the old rogue mill – Jordhamn – which was used to grind limestone back in the day.
After lunch we took a nice 3k walk and could sit outside and enjoy a cup of coffee when we got back home again. Now we have watched both the other Stockholm-teams in their games this afternoon with results that was good for our team in both cases. Yeah.
Last evening in paradise this visit. Let’s hope for another sunset – one each evening so far. Good for the soul.
