The woman..

When God created woman he was working late on the 6th day. An angel came by and said: “Why spend so much time on that one?”And the Lord answered: “Have you seen all the specifications I have to meet to shape her? She must be washable, but not made of plastic, have more than 200 moving parts which all must be replaceable and she must function on all kinds of food, she must be able to embrace several kids at the same time, give a hug that can heal anything from a bruised knee to a broken heart and she must do all this with only two hands.
”The angel was impressed. “Just two hands…impossible! And this is the standard model?! Too much work for one day…Wait until tomorrow and then complete her.”“I will not”, said the Lord. “I am so close to complete this creation, which will be the favourite of my heart. She can cure herself when sick and she can work 18 hours a day.”
The angel came nearer and touched the woman. “But you have made her so soft, Lord.”“She is soft,” said the Lord, “But I have also made her strong. You can’t imagine what she can endure and overcome.””Can she think?” the angel asked.The Lord answered: “Not only can she think, she can reason and negotiate.
”The angel touched the woman’s cheek. “Lord, it seems this creation is leaking! You have put to many burdens on her.”“She is not leaking…it’s a tear” the Lord corrected the angel. “What’s it for?” asked the angel.And the Lord said: “Tears are her way of expressing grief, her doubts, her love, her loneliness, her suffering and her pride.”This made a big impression on the angel. “Lord you are genius. You thought of everything. The woman is indeed marvellous!”

Indeed she is! Women have strengths that amaze men. She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens. She holds happiness, love and opinions. She smiles when feeling like screaming. She sings when she feels like crying, cries when she is happy, and laughs when she is afraid. She fights for what she believes in. She stands up against injustice. She doesn’t take “no” for an answer, when she can see a better solution. She gives herself so her family can thrive. She takes her friend to the doctor when she is afraid. Her love is unconditional.She cries when her children are victorious. She is happy when her friends do well. She is glad when she hears of a birth or a wedding.Her heart is broken when a next of kin or friend dies. But she finds the strength to get on with life. She knows that a kiss and a hug can heal a broken heart.There is only one thing wrong with her.

She forgets what she is worth...

New week..

Sorry that I haven't written for a while.. I'm ashamed.. I know that at least one of you have been worried. You know how you are.. thanks for caring!!! :) it was awesome to talk to ya on icq the other day.. Don't know why I haven't written. I guessed the time has passed by so fast and when I have had the time to write I haven't felt like it..

Have had good 2,5 weeks since last time.. have been a little tired and kind of empty and I have been thinking a lot. Don't know what it is with me now. Think a lot about the future and my relationships and so..guess something is on it's way. A breakingpoint of some kind. But I've been enjoying my weeks and felt okay most of the time anayways.. strange how the mood can change and affect your life..

Still love my job.. really enjoy working there!! Have worked some with the kids too theese past weeks.. awesome!! Other then work I have been trying to be home and relax and I actually have had the oppurtunity to do that, soo nice!! and I have also hung out with my friends. Blessed weeks with a good mix with rest and company.. and I have been talking a lot to my friend Maria.. awesome!!

Last Friday we went out to eat to celebrate Sara's birthday. We went to a tai restaurant and afterwards we went to Sara´s place.. had such a good time!! my friends are to funny :) looove them!! fooled around a lot :)

We had a reopening of my church last Sunday..such a blast!! the whole evening were so blessed.. the service, the sermon, worship, the coffee afterwards.. everything came together so well!! and it' so fun to be part of a church that grows and has to expend! my coworker came just to see me dance.. and she thought it(the mass) was so good and awesome so she came yesterday too.. :)

This past Saturday we had a danceworkshop with a lady named Lena. Good & inspiring day!!! but you're tired after a day with dance, but I can't complain- good to fel that you have a body & muscles :) In the evening some friends of mine and I went to the movies- we saw Solstorm.A Swedish movie.. it was good but a little tired and made me feel uncomfortable sometimes. But it was good..

well.. that was a little update from me.. Today I'm having a day at home.. done the dishes, vaccumed the floors and now I'm gonna transfer the film from Saturday( the danceworkshop) to my computer. Then I need to go to the mall and do some arrends.

Have a good week!!
love

Finally weekend...

I have waited for this moment.. a day/weekend without nothing planned, no where to go and nothing to get in time to. Soo nice!! Have had a busy week and have been sooo tired.. have been having a headace the whole week :(
Have been working as usual- first week with my new schedule.. I'm off Mondays now instead of Fridays. In that way I can hang out with my friends or play indoor-bandy after church on Sunday evenings :) Have to work late Fridays to be able to be of on Mondays but it's okay, I end at 18.30 so I have time to do stuff after that :)

On Tuesday after work I had planned to go home and relax 'cause I had a meeting in the evening- planning for a conference. But I got stuck in church, as usual.. took a nap, sat outside in the sun writing a letter and talked with Maria while she was doing some yardwork.. really nice! the planning went well.. but got to bed way to late..
On Wednesday I met with Fredrik to cook for the alphacourse on Thursday evening.. it all went okay and it was fun!! after that I met with my co-worker Maria- I know, many Marias around me :) we strolled at the mall and then went to "the golden arches" as me & my friends say.. McDonalds is a more wellknown name..
On Thursday I was dead tired.. but managed worked anyway and got to help out with the kids too.. after that I went home and had a nap and took a shower. Then it was time to go to church and to serve the alphacourse the soup Fredrik & I made. it was appriciated and liked!!
Yesterday I got to sleep in- slept 10,5 hours!!! sooo nice! then off to work and after work we had a kick off with work. We went bowling and had dinner.. sooo nice and so fun!! my co-workers are just to crazy and fun :) had a good time!!

so as you can guess.. I'm really looking forward to a calm and relaxed weekend after this week. Although it has been fun..
Gonna make myself some breakfast now..

I'm an aunt again!! :) happy happy!! Erik and Sofia got a little girl on Saturday evening.. it all went okay and both Sofia and the baby are doing just fine!! No name yet. They are all excited!! Maja and Anna are over the hills happy! =)

I went to the 5 year reunion from my bibleclass & 50year birthdayparty for Hjälmred this weekend. Didn't really feel like it but I thought I could go and go back home in the evening. It was over my expectations!! it's really nice!!! awesome to see all my classmates and friends! had lots of fun! were tired but could enjoy it anyways. Had a really good time!! awesome to see Bengt, our old teacher! he's the same, lost some weight though.
I changed my mind and wanted to spend the night so I stayed at my brother´s place and had breakfast with Maja, Anna and Sofia´s sister.. so soft & nice!! Then they went to the hospital to see the baby and I went to see my friends and go to the service and have lunch.. then it was time to say good by to everyone :( went straight to my church, my praying group had the service so we had some things to prepare. It all went okay and it was a really nice service. Claes had an really touching and thoughtworthy sermon.. and the worship were awesome! :)
