We were ending this last week before Xmas with a Friday afternoon/evening traditional get-together with the MC-gang. Originally we had the idea to do some Xmas shopping in combination with a few beers etc, but it have never happened. Only the drinking part has been fulfilled. Anyhow it's been a good label on the activity as such, to receive full support from wifes & families at home.

This years surprise activity was a little movie made by 2 members around some activities that they've done in secret behind our backs over a period of 6 months. Cool, but the problem was that they had taken on some challenges and also performed them, that the whole team had set up as challenges for the coming year. Hmmmm ... Now, that challenge is not so interesting any more for the rest of us. Even the common Vasaloppet activity fades a bit, in the light of this. Strange enough, they thought that this would be an inspirational booster for us. Not at all. That's pathetic to think. Even today with a sober brain, I can't understand how they were thinking. The team activity part has now partly vanished from my mind picture. Some trust issues are also assoicated to this. Sneaking behind the backs of so called good friends are not nice, if the purpose not is to prepare some positive surprise for them. This was not of that kind at all. I made an "Ara Abrahamian" and left my Xmas gift movie at the "ceremony". It would just upset me more knowing that it would exist in my house and recreating the same emotions again. I might be more sensitive than many others to these kind of thoughtless treacherous behaviours between friends. It's hard to build a true brotherhood on those kind of happenings.

Anyhow we had lots of interesting discussions for the rest of the evening as a result of this, so let's see what direction it takes from here. There's a lot at stake, so of course we will make our outmost to rebuild some questionable trust issues. Every family goes through these kind of minor disturbances from time to time, but the strong ones are able to sort it out through honest and open discussions. So will we!

I've lost some enthusiasm for blogging lately, so I will take a timeout for a while. To many other things to do and I am already spending to much time in front of the computer. So if you wonder what I'll be doing instead, I hope that the answ...

Vasaloppet 2009 is over. Very impressive results from a MC-gang perspective. 8 out of 8 succesfull finishers. My conclusion from a general view is that is all about mindset and mental power. OK OK OK, some physical abilites as well. The strongest ach...

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...
