Lucia

Today is a big swedish holiday. Lucia. Ima try to explain it for those of you that don't know what it is.

Saint Lucia's Day (sometimes Lucy for short) is the Church feast day dedicated to Saint Lucy and is observed on the 13th of December. Its modern day celebration is generally associated with Sweden and Norway but is also observed in Denmark, Estonia, Italy, Latvia, Finland, Hungary, Malta, Bosnia, Bavaria, Croatia, Slovakia, Spain and St. Lucia, West Indies.[citation needed] In the United States it is celebrated with cookies on the mantel in states for a large number of people of Scandinavian ancestry, often centered around church events.

A traditional kind of bun, Lussekatt ("St. Lucia Bun"), made with saffron, is normally eaten on this day.

Although St. Lucia's Day is not an official holiday in Sweden, it is a popular occasion in Sweden. The evening and night before (so called "Lusse-vigil") The Lucia Day is a notoriously noisy time. High school students often celebrate by partying all through the night. At many universities, students hold big formal dinner parties since this is the last chance to celebrate together before most students go home to their families for Christmas.



I really miss my children today. I feel very lonely. And getting quite sad actually.

Im starting to question stuff around me and if it's worth all the hassle.

Think Ima take a walk in the beach now and just breathe. I have a lot to take in and a sunny walk will do me good.

Wishing all My family and friends a happy lucia.

I miss all My boys very much.......

Monday....

Today was a Thai holiday. So schools, banks and other officiall places were closed. So ms Angela had a well needed day off. Or ish anyway. When I woke up at 10.00 we went to red café for breakfast and to do some charity work for the Swedish quiz night. It was a fucking hassle, let me tell you. I've never used powerpoint before and coming up with questions took forever. Not too hard not too easy. Damn!!!
But it was fun and it felt good to know that the work you put in is going to genarate into good things for the children.

While we were sitting there it started to rain. Torrential rain! And the thunder was so loud it hurt My ears. It rained for about an hour and a half.

Before work today nong Roh braided My hair and I had a Beer (!) with James and Daniel at May Dens.

At work a group of french guys rocked up and sat a while. Then a friend from Kamala showed up and brought his friends with him. They were embarrassingly enough such cheapskates that they bought Beer from 7/11 and drank at My bar. Sheldon got a few beers though.Good man :)

Played the hammer game and I actually won one time. Yey!!!

There was a fight at white room that spun out of hand so by 02.40 I said we had to leave. The thais were gathering and that is never a good sign. Took the guys to gg's because it had started to rain. Waited for the rain to calm down and then Sheldon was so kind to ride with me home.

So back home at 03.50. It's late. Early...what ever. Now Im more relaxed and hopefully go to sleep.

I have a lot of stuff on My mind atm and it's frustrating as hell. I think I know what to do. But Im not sure I want to...

Anyway....

Good night ya'll!!!!
