Vad e väl en bal på slottet...

Obviously someone else's picture..

After a completely crap day, I am sitting here listening to the sounds of the City's Light Night. I had planned all autumn to go there tonight, to see the ice rink Winter Wonderland and to see the Christmas Lights being switched on. To see the anticipation in Cs eyes.

Instead I have had a terrible day, screaming at the children, spending 2hours to please a customer who decided to change her mind after all that work (lesson learned: Anyone calling 5times and sending 7 emails before even placing order probably won't place an order with you, they just want attention!). Cs temperature is down, but he can hardly speak and I had just about 2h sleep last night from trying to help him with his coughing.

Oh, well "vad e väl en bal på slottet"..

(for any non-Swedish speaker, this is what Cinderella says when she realizes she has missed the big ball dance at the castle and thinking to herself that it probably wasn't that fun after all..)

Same experience with my business too. People that seem overly 'needy' are difficult customers. Those who need their hand held seem rarely satisfied.

As for Christmas! I'm jealous! You'll get your turn on the skating rink yet. Are the German markets there?

Hope your family feels better soon!

Ja, och nästa år fattar ju J galoppen också. Vi e alla friska (re) nu, tack för omtanken. :)

Very true.

Regarding Christmas lights, we drove past there on Monday evening on our way to IKEA, it looked fab! We are aiming to go soon! And we have to get skates for us, I have binned mine old ones from Sweden *we always skated in school in PE*

*nostalgia*

in PE? Sounds all wrong, should be "at PE".

På gymnastiken.
