Angels and princesses, and a weird world

The Norwegian princess Märtha has once more tried to find a living, - and that is as it should be, we do not want her and her family to be destitue do we? However, - she has set up a "school", - and appearently some of her major partners are angels.

What can I say? Good luck? Unfortunately the reference is in Norwegian only - too bad, you have really missed something!
There was a Swedish film called "Änglar, finns dom" (Angles, are they real) - well, much more real than what is in the head of the poor princess M., an otherwise very nice young woman.

Found myself back on the tracks

After a night of worry and little sleep, and a good day at work not thinking about my litte blog problem at home, I managed last night between glass number one and two (white wine), to find my way back on the published side of the blogger world.

It is really ridiculus I should have become so touched by something so totally insignificant.

Now that the grandchildren are here, I guess there will be less posting than before, - but lots of fun making dolls' dresses, drawing cars, picking strawberries and reading stories.

Was this all?

This is what my aunt said at the age of 80-some years, minutes before she died. She had had Alzheimers for year, she was institutionalized, - and dying was really just a very much longed-for end.

Now I am faced with losing my Norwegian-language blog, - and I suffer. I really do. I have been very stupid, trying experiment, trying to put the blog on a private domain - and it is just gone!

All of a suddenn I remember the words of my very dear aunt, - "Was this all".
W know it is not possible to resurrect, - but maybe it is possible to find a lost blog?

The lost blog was tonitasblablablablogspot.com - http://www.blogger.com/layout?blogID=31040404. - but now of course placed otherplace - if anyone is willing to help.

Yeah! C is coming

Who would have thought the very busy lady would have time, or take time off, to come to dinner tomorrow? OK, - so I will not be cooking the dinner myself tomorrow, we will go out, - I will only serve the champagne, - unlike last night when I made and served an impromptu dinner for six, on a 10 minutes warning! Cold beet root soup (already in the fridge), - with nice garnishings of tow different onions and green peppers, - then a salad with scallops cooked in garlic, echalottes, tomatoes and lots of parsley, - and of course good olive oil from Senor Notte. Grazie Sr. Notte!

41 years - and lots of years to go, - hopefully ...

Happily married for 41 years? Yes.
Ups and downs, - great sorrows, lots of fun, lots of pleasure, - great contentment.

I just read a rather funny "Question" concerning software "Girlfriend 7.0", "Wife 1.0" - etc - and the Helpdesk ended up advising the troubled user to stick to "Wife 1.0" - not try to find a new software "Girlfriend 8.0", - or for that matter "Wife 2.0".

I will stick to "Husband 2.0" - and hope for that software to be in good standing for quite a few more years.

Summer vacation is lovely. Good sailing, good food, good rosé to drink.

The Med

The Med could not be better. No meduses, silky water, - not too many people. A summer of my content.
