Here is the link to the Swedish tv Julkalendar (short tv series of 24 episodes)

http://svt.se/2.168271/

my father said he can watch it on his iPhone with no problems. It is of course in Swedish, but the title is A(The) Thieves´Christmas and it is a Dickens Oliver Twist type tale. Hubby sends Christmas greetings!

Good news, bad news. The British Primary school hubby interviewed at called his current job to check references. The good news is they are checking, the bad news is his current boss was not. I guess in Sweden they do not ask if it is okay. Praying for a Christmas miracle!

I went Christmas shopping with a good friend this morning. I didn't buy much but I sure enjoyed it. :scene:

I am totally bummed! My wife is going Christmas shopping without me.
I thought we were done with all the shopping, but she says she has one more present to buy.
So why can't I go? Hmmmmm. :think:

I went to a beautiful wedding today. Congratulations to my cousin and his bride! It was a nice to see the Christmas decorations at the reception! Sad that I don't feel like I will ever have that.

Rain, rain, and more rain today. It's so foggy I can't see the Christmas lights out in my yard. :|
