Halloween weekend

Luckily you have your friends to gently remind you when you have been lackin.
On here there's alot I havn't written about that's been going on;
* I moved to Manchester
* Elvine was born, makin me an aunt.
* I moved home from Manchester (grandfather stood waiting at the airport, bless)
* Some friends from Manchester have been over visitin. Still hoping for more of them to come though.
* Got a great job over the summer (which coincedentally eliminated all chances of a social life, but hey)
* Were foster home for stray dogs taken from Ireland to be re-homes in Sweden. First I took care of 4 month old amstaff-mix Miller, a adorable little pup that followed me around constantly for the three weeks I had him. Then there was Marlon, a 2 years old staff-boxer-mix that stayed for 3 weeks untill he too got a permanent home. Love my irish boyos!
* School started again, with this years new accounting class including my own Ms Hanna Kruse-Bråhn! Welcome to our school Hanna, love that you're here too!

And now it's only a month left of our regular semester before our 18 weeks long work experience period commences. Then there's back to slim-to-none social life again!


Since it's Halloween most are out partyin. That's however not the case for me this year. I'm spending my halloween celebrating Allahelgona instead. The original swedish version. This because my cyclops grandfather (who only has vision in one eye) now havin an eye infection has a bit of a hazzle. Or in his own words 'it's a bit fuzzy, I must admit...' My grandfather has always been very proned to understatements - he's blind as a bat. At least one without a sonar, seein as he otherwise would have an extremly finely tuned navigational system - which I can assure you he has not. These days he has a more hands on physical approach to navigation - if he hits something while walking he adjust direction slightly and gives it another go....
I thought it better to come here and make sure he as well as furniture survives the weekend in one piece..
The cat though looks quite unpertubed by all this. But then he seems quite unpertubed by more or less anything come to think of it...

Haveto go and check that grandfather get his medicine now...
