Måndag



Har hänt en del sen sist. Jag har skruvat på ben på mitt gamla soffbord, tadaa - ett köksbord :) Ska dock fortsätta leta efter ben i trä. Ikeas metallben får duga så länge. Saknar fortfarande köksstolar men vi vet nog vilka vi vill ha.
Pappa har varit på besök hemma hos oss och på mitt jobb. Recension finns på gnagarn.blogg.se
I helgen var Ida här, mycket trevligt. Vi sprang på stan för att hitta inspiration och tips till brudklänningen som Ida ska sy (hihi). Har också satt ihop sängbord (ikea såklart).
Denna vecka blir lugn, veckans happening är på torsdag när en person ska komma och hämta vår stora 33" tjock-tv som lagt av. Vi har haft en annons på blocket om gratis hämtning. Det var det lättaste eftersom vi inte kan BÄRA den till tippen... Måste köpa en ny den här veckan. ciao ciao.


Monday

Today R had a big exam for work today and he passed!!! We have tonight celebrated with Leffe Blond (beer) and cheese plate, just like in the good old days at pub Gollem in Amsterdam (Raamsteeg). Proost / Skål / Cheers.



Ps. I am considering to write in Swedish from now on since I am not sure anyone non-Swedish is reading this anylonger?

Sunday

On Sunday I started with a brunch in the sun outside Sara's house.


After that we went shopping on IKEA....

Saturday

On Saturday my cousin Anneli had a goodbye party since she is moving up north. We went out to Debaser afterwards. I will miss her so much....


Da house

Here is, the still not finished apartment, but at least we are not falling over things anymore :)


Entrance, Living room, Office / guest room, Balcony (we used to live in the grey house)

next holiday

Back from sunny Portugal. I got a nice tan and some rest. See pics on http://gnagarn.blogg.se
I have now worked 2 days and the rest of the week we have off thanks to 2 national holidays. I will spend all time to get a bit closer to finished in our apartment. The sun is shining and hopefully the spring/summer is here to stay. It is very nice to be able to sit on the the balcony and have breakfast in the morning. I have to leave the computer and our office now. Robert has to study, a big exam on Monday and I am not allowed to disturb him... ciao

Vacation

Soon on the way to warmer places (hopefully). Cannot reveal where since it is my dad's birthday gift which is supposed to be a surprise... I will be away for a week and come back rested and ready for the finishing touch of the apartment. Have a good time until then! Adeus!

50-årskalas

50-årskalas 2 tired party animals (?)

Here is a pic from the party for my father! We look a bit tired... So far no pics from the new apartment (thank g-d - it is a mess). check out Björn's blog to see some from the actual moving day. This week I have spent 2 days in a spa for our After Sales Meetings at work. Very luxurous and relaxing. We actually had our dinner  (lovely Teppan yaki) in a kimono, felt a bit strange. This weekend I will only stay in the apartmen to fix everything, I don't want any more messy mornings when I cannot find any clothes or shoes etc. ciao ciao /C

Home again!! (not that you knew that I was gone)

Home again!! (not that you knew that I was gone)   Thanks for the congratulations on my birthday!!

Last weekend we were in Borlänge to have a suprise party (so much for that) for my dad that is soon turning 50 (!!). It went ok (analyze that daddy...).  Early on Sunday morning I drove to Arlanda airport to go to Venice with a transfer in Frankfurt. It was great to come to sunny and warm Venice where I had dinner with my nordic Diesel colleagues. We were there for training in the new system. I have had so much great food the last days so it is incredible. Delicious asparagus risotto, caprese (buffalo mozarella, tomato and basil), pasta and pizza! The prosecco wasn't too bad either :) I spent my birthday over there so it passed by quietly. The evening we spent in the hotel restaurant (since we were flying home the next morning) and my collegues suprised me with ordering a nice tiramisu (see pic). This morning I went up at 4.30 to fly home via Munich this time. I went directly to work to finish some stuff since I am off tomorrow! We are finally moving (500 meters or so, but anyway...)
Now I have to move my a-s since there are many boxes to pack before bedtime. Tomorrow we are paying the apartment, moving the stuff from the tiny apartment to the bigger one and then driving 3 hours to Värmland to get the other stuff (back on Saturday). Ciao arrivederci!

Almost Friday!!!

And then another week is almost over... Time flies when one's having fun :)
Today I had my first yearly evaluation with my manager and it went better than great - and I am not even close to what I would like to accomplish with the customer service and indoor sales.
This evening we have been working out in the gym, I can almost see my muscles grow hehe.
Wedding planning is not going forward really but the moving plans are, luckily. I am soooo looking forward to it!
Tomorrow night I will miss Let's Dance and go out for Italian dinner and a movie with Sara instead, not too bad that either.
Have a fantastic weekend!


Weekend with sis

This Friday my sister came to visit us for the weekend. We went to home to see Let's Dance after a game of pinball in the office (I have a great job!).

Saturday we spent on IKEA. We found a MÅNSTAD bed sofa, a GIDEÅ dining table and lots of other stuff! I am very pleased with the visit but maybe Malin thought it was a bit less amusing...
Saturday night was spent again in the sofa with chips and coke in front of one of the semifinals of the National song contest. Funny that "Androla" wasn't directly qualifying to the final and Sanna was great!

Today Sunday we have been working out in the gym and not much else. Now we are getting ready for another week...

Rob in a very important phone call with a book club sales man....

Our new home



Here is the first pic of our new home, taken this morning from our window (the lowrise in the middle, next to the tall buildings). The ugly buildings in the middle is a shopping centre. It doesn't look pretty on the pic but the surroundings are very beautiful. We are so looking forward to moving there. For Eastern we will start preparing and go to see our stored things in Värmland, we haven't seen these things in 6 years so we think there is a lot that won't be let in to our new home. We also need to buy a new sofa, dining table and chairs, TV (big enough for real Nintendo Wii games), bed, closets... oh my....
Tonight we are going to a Cure concert at Hovet, that will be great!

The little olive

Here are 2 pics from a few weeks ago when we had a date with Oliver, my cousin's super handsome 13-month old son.
 

FINALLY!!!!

Today we bought an apartment!!!! 
Last weekend we saw an ad for an apartment that would be shown on Sunday this week. After all the viewings lately I really didn't feel like it anymore so yesterday I called the real estate agent and gave the price we wanted to pay. The seller accepted it and invited us to view it last night. Today we all signed the contracts! We are moving in in beginning of April. I am going to Italy for work the first week of April so it will be a busy week since we are moving in the day after I come home. (it is in Alphyddan, Nacka, almost where we live today = perfect)

More news coming soon....
