oh, damn, the best laid plans of mice and men.....
I was all destined to be such a damn good blogger- and life .....seems to have gotten in the way,a bit.....
that ,or I have slowed up a bit , in my rage against the system.....
nit really, i still bitch and whine and moan......that will never quit.
This week in SFI class, we had to say what we liked about Sweden, in Swedish and what we didin't like.
I will continue to go on record:
I adore 3 things about Sweden,specifically:
( i svenska)
1.) min man ( that 's da hubbie)- that' gorgoeus wonderful guy up there!
2.) hummar ( or HUMMER) who cares- that's LOBSTER- and yes- this is a photo of a NEw England lobster- but they are basically the same YUMMY THANG!
AND:
3.) jordgubbar- ( that's strawberries) and I think those are DAMN GOOD....
however, one of my bubbles was burst, when saying i SFI klasen vad jag tycker om'd-
my Iranian classmates proceeded to tell me- that Sweden has NOTHING on stawberries compared to the ones from Iran. Now what do I know about that?.....they are nice honest girls- who am I to doubt what they are saying about that?
All in all to say: from time to time, the hubbie asks me to name 10 things that I moved to sweden for, besides him.
right.
( UHH, now considering that sweden was at best only SOMEWHERE on my long list of vacation places, someday in the distant future.....) that's IMPOSSIBLE to answer.
I tell him so.
Then the question gets changed to this:
What are ten things in Sweden you like OTHER THAN ME?- says he:
And my answer- is always-
1.) JORDGUBBAR,
2.) STRAWBERRIES and
3.)you
4.)you
5.)you
and OSV!....
However, my hard callous hert is softening a bit. I think now that I can easily put my ( adopted) family on that list
at this point
and some of the wonderful friends that I have made over here.....( so most of them are ex-pats,but!)...
Yes, slowly , but surely , the list is changing , I have to say......
but isn't that what all this is kinda about.....anyway?......
sorry I've been off so long, I promise to attempt to take 10 minutes away from Farmville every day, to try to write something......It's a LONG FRIGGIN' WINTER ahead.....
God help us all.....
Swedish word of the DAY:
VED- that's FIREWOOD- which the boys are out a fetchin' now....tonight it's lasagna and and fire in the fireplace......
nice .....and ......swedish......
LESSON for the SOUL for the DAY:
God gave you Farmville and VED to pass the time between now and the next Golden Orb siting......Thanks!God!
