I do a lot of driving for work; driving 5-6 hours a day is not at all unusual.  We've been lucky the past couple of years in the sense that I haven't had to drive in many snowstorms - my district lies mainly in the southern part of Sweden with a coastal climate.

Today, however, the temperature was in the low thirties, and as I was leaving Malmö starting my three hour drive home, some snow mixed with rain started to fall. Naturally I was in a hurry since L had a class party tonight that involved the whole family. So I sent a text message to my husband with the words, "Snow - slippery".

It's not like I absolutely had to send the text message just that second, especially since the snow ended about 5 minutes later. But deep down I knew exactly what it was I was hoping for.

And within a minute I got my answer, "försiktig", which means "careful".

All I wanted was to read his coded "I love you".

Why is it that 16½ years later, I still need to be convinced? It's definitely about me - gotta work on that.

Today has been a tough day.   I've been provoked, and even though I knew what was coming, after 2½ hours I cracked. Not very yogic.   I had my first Body Balance class in two months, and as expected, I'm not exactly at my peak. Still I feel f...

I love living in Sweden. And there's a lot in the U.S. that could stand improvement. Remember that as you keep reading my short list of complaints.   Or actually read about my one big complaint:   This morning as I was brushing the snow off my ca...

Right now I am feeling almost too tired to get out of my chair. This is typical right after putting the kids to bed. I remember it being very important to my husband and me that our children got to bed early every evening (8 P.M.) so that we could ha...
