Good luck with the job recruiter Jennifer. Keep up the hard work and try to stay positive. Christmas prayers headed your way.

Thanks! Nice to hear from one of my Christmas friends before I go. You must either be up very early or very late.

I have lost the christmas magic when it comes to changing my avatar. Even hubby could not do it. So, I guess we have to look at the swedish flag for awhile.

Winter has definitely came back to Arkansas. We had heavy rain all day Saturday, sleet yesterday, and today no precipation but it's bitterly cold. 15 degrees when I took my dd to school this morning. Further south they are getting ice.

Dd is a Daisy Girl Scout this year and is busy selling cookies. If you get a chance to buy any from the Scouts, do it. It's such a great cause. And the cookies are the best! I'm going to buy up several boxes and put them in the freezer. I hope they last until Christmas!

I have an interview with a recruiter today. Though I did not get as much sleep as I would like, I hope I do well enough to get passed onto the potential employer. Praying for that Christmas miracle!

Hope all my Christmas friends are getting well or stay healthy!

Praying for a christmas miracle !!!

I love the thin mint cookies!
I should ask for them for Christmas this year.

Snow storm today. My interview with the recruiter went well, whether I am right for the job or not remains to be seen. If not, maybe they will like me for another temp job. Downside is less pay than a "regular" hire and no holiday pay. Sweden does not have sick pay anyway. Not sure how the taxes would be handled. But, a job is a job and it would be very good experience.

I found some niches for the christmas stars and electric candlesticks in the apartment. I put the advent candle trays in the christmas in july bag along with a few other small things so we can have "christmas" next year if need be without hubby bringing up anything from the basement. I think some of the garland has seen better days but that is easily replaced.

Hubby got less than encouraging news at work today about his Feb 6 contract being extended at two schools (50% of his income). The woman on maternity leave is returning. We were hoping that a woman over 40 with a newborn and a school age child might enjoy staying home. Praying for that Christmas miracle and that I get the job I interviewed for yesterday. I should know by wednesday if I am to go on with the process.

Jennifer, is it true that a woman stole a train and wrecked it into a residence in Saltsjobaden ? I saw a story about it on Google+.
Maybe she didn't get anything on her Christmas list this year.
Anyway, too funny!

Yes it is true. Anders said she was a cleaning woman and somehow got ahold of the key and has now been taken to jail. They are investigating how she could have accomplished this.

I dreamed a couple of nights ago that it was two weeks before Christmas. Too bad I woke up.

I just got done putting together a puzzle for the last 2 hours. It was one my brother let us borrow when we visited Connecticut just before Christmas. It was fun! I can't remember when the last time I did one was!

Hello to all my Christmasy friends!

I am feeling somewhat better and have made a couple of posts. My Dh and kiddies are still very very sick. I am hoping I am on the mend so I can care for them 100% of the time!
