Nope. No Nerd Jr today either. *sigh* And I am getting increasingly clumsy. :-/ It is starting to become an effort to move around. I don't like it. I just want Nerd Jr to be here with us by now! Was scheduled for yesterday... Apparently Nerd Jr didn't agree. *sigh*
In an effort to get things going though, I've been somewhat productive today! I cleaned the bathroom and watered all the flowers (which all took longer then usual, but hey... I did it, so yay!).
When I was done with that and relaxing,
peting73s best friend called and said they'd come over and say hi. Considering they live 8 hours from here further north in Sweden, I was quite surprised to hear this, but happy to! :-D So I made a kladdkaka/mudcake (easiest cake EVER to make!).
They said they'd be here a bit before
peting73 would be off work, but of course not. Kiltfan and his wife are notriously late, with at least 20-30mins, so I even had time for a short nap. :-) Lovely, lovely!
Shortly after
peting73 came home from work they did to, and we had a lovely time eating cake and talking and just hanging out. :-) Was great!
After that and dinner, we both took a nap here and then we've just taken it easy the rest of the evening... So it's been a good day, absolutly! Despite no Nerd Jr. ;-) Tomorrow perhaps? We'll see, I suppose. Only one that knows... and that's Nerd Jr.
And of course I found a link to share! :-D Surprised? Shouldn't be. ;-)
This is SUCH a perfect description about the odd traditions when it comes to us Swedes and christmas... I know, wrong season, but hell... It amused me. :-) Mostly because it is all true! :-D

Date: 2012-08-07 10:12 pm (UTC)We have Christmas cartoon traditions here too! Every year, it's Dr. Suess' The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. It's also the general tradition to watch the Smurfs, but my family doesn't do that.
GOOD LUCK GOOD LUCK GOOD LUCK! <3<3 Everything will go splendidly! I'm really excited for you! Nerd Jr. is probably getting more and more excited too, to finally see his parents. <3

Date: 2012-08-18 02:39 pm (UTC)I've seen Dr Suess' The Grinch! :-D Well, the cartoon AND the movie. :-) Dr Suess ain't that known in Sweden, but I do think his stories are kinda cool. :-) Hard to translate though.
But the Smurfs? That's odd! :-D I mean, that's an Belgian cartoon/comic. I loved the Smurfs when I was a kid! Read the comics A LOT! :-D
