Summertime

and the living is easy. Last night watches changed +1 hour.
I wish my job was easy too. I really really reall don't like it anymore. If I were to leave I know I would be ok. Fortunately I have a husband who makes a lot of money but I'd have to say good bye to my friends Manolo, Salvatore and Marc and I am not ready to do that just yet. So I'll hang in there and keep trying.
My bitching about my job seems quite petty when I read about wonderful Lotta who is fighting for her life. I wish her all the best and a long and happy life with husband and child.

My husband is next to me on the couch watching his favourite Jason Bourne film.
Theis weekend we haven't really done anything. I have been working a bit and we have been fixing the apartment. Next week end the hallway will get new wall paper and one corner in the living room will become blue. Should be cool.

For easter we are off to London! It is my first visit ever! So I am really looking forward to it. Then sis and I are going to London again in the end of May and we might go to Vienna for my birthday.
It's like I use to say: The world is a playground - let's play!

Now I must do my nails :)

Take care
Love/E

Spring is in the Air

and it's lovely. So today I am going to leave work early...hopefully and then take my convertible out for a spin :) I wish...
Actually I am going to spend Friday night with manual labour: old wall paper has to go. Wonder if it's ok to drink champagne while working. It's not like I am going to be operating heavy machinery or anything.

Celebrated sis' birthday on Tuesday with dinner at SMAK at Restaurangen. It was nice, good food but service was a bit slow. Their concept is that you order small portions, 1, 3, 5 or 7 with a small glass of wine or beer to match the food. Well worth a visit and not to expensive.
Bought her some stuff for her new bathroom: soap dispenser from VIPP and towels from Gant (nb the name dropping ;)). She liked it but wants different colours so Saturday we are going back to the Mothership to change.

Sunday I am going to bring sis and Mr S to see first an art exhibition at the National gallery and then Watchmen - the movie. There is something for everyone :)

Now, I'm off

Take care
Love/E

Re-inventions

Britney is back and she means business. Just got to love her new song "If U seek Amy" and this. My god, people die in the world and this is your major concern...

And this is a cover of a 70 rock song! I learn something new everyday.

I have my mind set on spending easter in London. Found a lovely hotel The Landmark that I want to stay at and quite cheap tickets flying with British Airways. I have, ashamed to admit it, never been to London. Or well once I had a quick stop at Victoria Station on my way to Scarborough.
And I also spent 5 hours waiting at Stanstead airport with my ex. I was strolling around the shops and he was on the phone the entire time. So, if I get my way we will go to London soon. Actually the more I think about it the better it seems. We will avoid the euro as the exchange rates are crazy right now, 1 euro is almost 12 sek, they have just abolished VAT in the UK and the re is a Manolo Blahnik store there. (Which reminds me: I am going to watch some old episodes of SATC later).

"Why Sir, you find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford"

Samuel Johnson 1777
