Pixar has done it again. Finding Nemo is great for all members of a “normal” family. I, Johanna and Tovah all enjoyed it. Tovah’s comment right after the end was “again again”.
Right now we are watching a really retro TV show, Doctor Snuggles and I just realized where I had gotten the word “Skruttibangbang” from. It is the name of the Snuggles’ rocket. What is so special with that name? That is what I have called Johanna for the last 12.5 years but I haven’t seen the TV show for at least 20 years.

Word Understanding
A fun episode today, I wanted an ice cream and I asked Johanna if she wanted a “G” as in glass which is Swedish for ice cream. Anyhow, before Johanna gets a chance to answer Tovah says, “I want ice cream”. So much for speaking in code.
A Day on the Town
We just got back from 7 hours down town. We had lunch at Baan Thai, Swirleys at the northern harbour, 6 visits to the bathroom with Tovah, and way to much time shopping time. We didn’t actually buy that much. Johanna bought a Esprit top, a piece of metal net for her lamp we bought in Egypt, 1l milk and 1l sour milk.
20 of the 40 roses I bought for Johanna last week withered after 1 day so I complained about it and guess what, I got 20 new roses. That is nice service. Or as Tovah would say: “Oj”.

Who am I?
Inspired by Andreas I took the OS personality test:
I like PalmOS, I have a Tungsten C although I was a PocketPC person between 2001 and 2003 (actually used both a PPC and a Palm between 1999 and 2001).

Morning
Morning all appreciated colleagues in the weblogging business!
Yesterday Jennifer told us that the ants we had on the porch were actually horse ants, the Nordic termite. Oh no, my house is going to fall to pieces. I sent an email to my insurance company and right after 8 this morning they called me up. Had a quick talk with them and they referred me to Anticimex, an the exterminator (Arnie is that you?) will come on Thursday afternoon. I just hope they won’t have to use strong chemicals that will prevent us from being there or even prevent us from not allowing Tovah to be outside. It is summer….
Breakfast time and after that we are heading down town. We are going to buy wick for J’s new oil lamp, go to the employment service, eat lunch (Waldorf perhaps?), buy some clothes for J and other things I cannot think of right now.

What do you call Fellow Blogger that you Enjoy Reading?
I have gotten accustomed to reading other people’s blogs and it isn’t just random blogs but I follow about 15 blogs, mainly written by fellow Swedish bloggers. I feel like I get to know these bloggers very well. You know what they do, what they like, what they eat, what they hate etc. etc. I especially enjoy Andreas, Niklas, and Malin, but there ar emany more…
I have one question though, what do you call the writers? Friends? I have never really met them and friends is something mutual, right? I mean, I don’t know if they like my writing and I have definitively never met them (with one exception, Tina).
Anybody have any suggestions?
Sunny Monday
I have had a nice day together with J, T and Jennifer. We have eaten good food and had a water war in the garden. Tovah especially liked the latter and she was running around as mad chasing us. I must admit that I helped her a bit and the scary pants (:-) Jennifer hid behind my camera so I would throw water on her. Just wait until next time Jennifer đ
Lunch was a chili made from smoked falu-sausage, bacon, kidney beans and chick peas together with rice and for dessert we had American cheese cake.
After lunch J, T and Jennifer went for a bike ride, during which I got time to sort some digital photos. This had not been done since march 2003. Bad boy Peter. It is actually nice to wait a bit as memories have been lost and you get nice reminders from looking at all the photos. As I wrote earlier today, our trip to Orlando was really nice.
Jennifer left around 18.20 together with Rolf (after a short visit) for a dinner at Rickard’s place. Hey, Rikard you still owe me a dinner đ
For dinner I had Tom Yam soup, Johanna had sandwiches and Tovah had gruel. After dinner we quickly cleaned up the kitchen. It is nice to not have anything to clean up when you go to bed later. A nice clean kitchen in the morning is something I recommend to everybody.
Right now me and Johanna are sitting in the kitchen, J is sorting here stones and beads (to make necklaces from) and I have just finished sorting photos taken from March to Maj 2003. T is half asleep in the sofa watching Winnie the Pooh. It is nice to have the family home again. I have been very lucky, very lucky indeed!!!
