The weather today

- 13 C cold today and the snow is still on the ground.

Christmas cards

Ok, I have to send my Christmas cards today, because today is the last day for sending Christmas cards (with special Christmas stamps). I have finished writing all my Christmas cards, but no stamps yet.

Yesterday I got my first Christmas card for this year, a card from Newcastle. Very nice!

Snow and space

Ah! Finally snow! It's been boring weather with raining for almost one month, it's so much better with snow! It was -3 C this morning, but it's not that bad.

Yesterday night, Christer Fuglesang has walked in space again to fix some electrical problems. His 2nd time. Maybe he have to do a spacewalk again, his 3rd, to do some work on the solar panels.

Tonight, the Swedish TV will interview Christer in live broadcast, and of course I will watch it. I hope the interview will be subtitled tonight.

Christmas presents

On Wednesday, I will go to a Christmas party at the Deaf club. We will all bring a Christmas present and give to each other.

But last week at the deaf club, one woman told us all: "No chocolate boxes as Christmas presents! I'm so tired of chocolate! Chocolate is such a boring gift! Don't buy chocolate!" she said angrily to us.

Hmm... Now I'm thinking of buying a chocolate box and give as Christmas present at that party...

Fuglesang's space travel

Tonight maybe Christer will travel to space? I hope so!

I will stay up all night until 2-3 am and watch it live on tv. It´s space-fever now in Sweden!

Christer will be the first Swede in space, and I read he will take gingerbread and moose meat with him. He wanted his astronaut friends to taste some of Swedish food. Interesting!

I'm holding my thumbs for him! "Hold my thumbs" is a Swedish saying for "Cross my fingers".
