A House or not a House



Mr S wants to move and buy a house. I don't.


He wants a garden where he can grow things (potaotes, herbs and berries). I grew sunflowers on our balcony this summer and may I say was very succesful. I had 7 sunflowers growing and blooming. Unfortunately we were away most of July when they where blooming the most but my neighbour enjoyed them very much.


I also have 2 olive trees, no olives though, and 2 poinsettias that are slowly becoming the plants from hell.... They just don't stop growing.





On the upside it means a bigger place to live, possibly two floors, bigger kitchen and a even bigger wordrobe. On the down side a garden, snow showeling, weird neighbours who BBQ and have strange parties, houses are expensive so less money - less shopping - less travelling.


And the location: I refuse to move somewhere where I can't go down town in 10 min or less on the subway.





I admit there is a certain charm in living in a house. I should know I grew up in one but I like living in an apartment.


And if we moved in to a suburban house area we would become the outcasts since don't have kids.
I intend to ends up a fierce old woman living in St Tropez, drinking cosmos for breakfast and driving around my much younger lover and myself in a Maserati.
Mr S will be fine - I'll hire a hot nurse for him ;)

Take care

Love/E

Back in Blue

So the Allince won, as I hoped but on the down side. the Swedish democrats made it into the Senate.
Sweden is getting colder.
I had hoped that the other parties would have opened up and invited them in to the debates. Monsters bursts in the light of day.

I usually don't endorse violence but some people just bring out the evil side of me.
But we'll see how they act in civilized company - it's not really their scene, is it??!?
On the upside New York was great. Shopping, street life, good food, cool people - loves it!

We took a helicopter ride over Manhattan which was fierce. I saw the WTC/Ground Zero. We actually left on Sept 11th and I spent that day at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
I never went to Moma since it is opposite of the Manolo Blahnik store - a girl has to prioritize sometimes.

Now bedtime. I need my beauty sleep

Take care
Love/E
