Christmas Greetings!


That's me in the lower left corner at the Blue Colour Works christmas party.

Hard to believe that another year already passed. Last christmas was special for me, the first one with my partner and his family in Gol. We had a wonderful time even though it was strange being away from my parents for first time at christmas. This year we will split it up, staying with his family and also with his 5-year old daughter until boxing day, and then going home to that "fair valley of childhood" and my family until after new years.


What we've seen of winter so far this year has been extremely cold and we've burnt so much wood already it's hard to believe. Just like last year, only this year it started earlier! Well then it's good to think about the winter soltice, that everything is now turning around and we're facing the brighter season. We've had a lot of trouble with cars, water and wood, even been blowing fuses due to the cold, and are thankful it's not this hard each year.






My feeling for the year to come is optimistic. I and my little family here have a lot to look forward to. One of them is going to Luxor - for the first time in 2,5 years. Another is having my Aussie friend over for two weeks in june and if all goes as planned we will go for a two week long hike!! God, what have I gotten myself into?! The coming year's greatest event will be - hopefully - publishing my first novel in fall. Almost to good to be true... But I promise you a lot of hard work lies behind it!

Well, then all that remains is wishing you all a blessed and peaceful christmas! Cheerio and see you all in the new year. And I won't let my tradition down; here's my favourite christmas video that I hope will bring you all into that cheery mood; Merry Christmas - With bells on!
