Then he has to wait 52 Days to get unemployment by Swedish law. He has been applying for jobs, got one call from a recruiter, and a few turn downs, but the process is just beginning. I will have a job at least until June and hopefully until the end of the year when my department combines with Another at the University. I am hoping I might even have a job after that but it is too soon to tell. Meanwhile, Glad Trollvinter!

Here is where we are going! If you have seen The Moomin cartoon series, the theme park is based on that and Trollvinter is the Finnish Midwinter (actually the middle of Winter instead of the Winter solstice). I posted a few eps on my facebook page, but you can find them on YouTube as well. It feels like an extension of Christmas!

Last night, Michelle bought a bunch of items for our Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes. Let the Christmas shopping begin!

We are in the last week countdown before we leave for a cruise to Honduras, Belize, and Mexico. I am very excited! We have been dealing with -20 degrees F for too long now in Vt.
I hope everyone else is doing well!

We have had the warmest February since 1939 according to Swedish weather station. I was hoping for a bit more snow in Finland, but the weather where we are going is pretty much the same as here. Never fear, Christmas is in the heart!
