The Sun Will Come Out. . .

Wednesday, January 14th, 2004

Tomorrow, tomorrow, the sun will come out tomorrow! Actually, the sun has been out for the past couple of days, but tomorrow looks to be a banner day. We’re getting our cable modem connection (after a big run around with a Dell service guy being stupid and telling me lies and causing me […]


My Mother’s Twin

Tuesday, January 13th, 2004

We found my mom’s long lost twin today and we weren’t even looking for her. Sure, she looks nothing like my dear sweet madre, but her personality is identical–all they do it talk, talk, talk, talk and then they talk some more. About nothing. Granted, they are both very nice, but when […]


Bingo!

Monday, January 12th, 2004

If you’re going to explore the seedy underbelly of an American sub-culture, you need go no further than the local bingo hall. They’ve done skits about this culture on various sitcoms, but the skits don’t go far enough. These people are flat out loony toons.
Mike and I are sitting in the senior center computer […]

No Computer Yet!

Saturday, January 10th, 2004

It’s official. I’ve Going Computer Crazy. I’m surprised I’ve held out this long, but we’ve been really busy cleaning and getting settled in. Now we are done and bored and seriously need computer access! Our machine shipped on Friday so hopefully we will get it next week. We did discover one cool […]


Things Get Better

Thursday, January 8th, 2004

Things are going much, much better today. The snow is starting to melt (they had over a foot of snow when we arrived and the snow removal system just can’t compete with the Swedish snow removal system), we haven’t been hen pecked by my grandma all day, our bed room was nice and warm, […]


I miss my blogging!

Wednesday, January 7th, 2004

I really miss writing and reading. I need to know how everyone’s doing, but it just ain’t happening. And I need to decompress my life at the end of the day so I don’t have to rehash it over and over and over again. Not that I’ve been doing a lot of that. I’m […]


Short Entry

Saturday, January 3rd, 2004

Mike says I have to keep this short because he’s bored to tears. We’re sitting in my mom’s very cold office and there’s not much to entertain the non-computering person, other than loads and loads of stuffed animals of all descriptions. I think her adoration of the creatures is what turned me off from them. […]


From Stockholm

Friday, January 2nd, 2004

We’re sitting at the Internet Cafe in the airport in Stockholm! We had to get up at 5:30 this morning, but that was no problem since we went to bed at 8:30 pm. We’re pathetic, are ‘t we? I didn’t have any non-drowsy motion sickness pills so had to take the real […]
