Bought a Christmas tree yesterday. That was probably the first time ever that I've paid for one. The last 8 years or so, we haven't had one and before that we usually got one from someone with access to their own forest up in Skaraborg. When I was young, Dad & Grandpa actually sold Xmas trees back home as a side business. I remember well, all the people that came there to inspect all the trees, critisising and bargaining. That and the associated social chitchats was probably the fun part for them.

Tonight Elvira & Oliver came here to help us decorate the tree. Lots of angels etc all over the tree now. What I like the best is the smell of the tree inside . Hopefully it will not loose all the needles until after Xmas, but it looks a bit worrying already ...

Otherwise, I have a rather bad cold in my system, so I fight hard to manage to keep the work energy up during a very hectic period with lots of tough challenges to take on.

Hurry up Xmas, I need a break !!

Ready to hit the ski tracks tomorrow morning. The temperature is perfect, around -10 to -5 degrees. We have tried the tracks up around Smågan this afternoon and it's fabulous conditions. Now we are hoping for a day tomorrow without any snowfall. ...

Yes, the flu has left my system. It has really helped to empty my body from all kind of energy reserves the last 4-5 days. If I remember correct according to some old body charging theories, it's good to clean out and empty your body, before star...

Time is flying in supersonic speed, so it's good to reflect back now and then, to get a picture of what's happening in life. That's why I now and then take a glimse back in some files to check what was going on the year or years before at...
