...Tusen Thanks.....

Dear friends,

I cannot say how happy I am that you remember me on this day. Thanks you very much, it means a lot to me. It actually turned out as a very good and nice day. All the nice messages and also a surprise from my collegues and boss...fells funny having your boss singing though. It was a big surprise and I am very touched. Tonight they are kind enough to take me out for dinner :).

Tack för alla trevliga meddelanden, brev och e-kort!!! Skönt att veta att ni inte glömt bort mig trots allt. Det blev visst inte en så dåligt dag trots allt. Blev mkt förvånad över att kollegorna gjorde ngt, har ju trots allt inte varit här så länge. Men det var kul och höra chefen sjunga :). Ska bli kul att gå ut på middag ikväll åsså....

Tack igen för allt och a big hug to all of you!!

The oooooooooold man

I am glad you had a wonderful birthday, bro....

Just want to share your thoughts on the difficulty of becoming friends with americans. I find the same thing although having lived here for 7 years. I would say New England is especially challenging. People are more conservative I think and well rooted here with a comfortable circle of family and friends. I find Southeatern Connecticut to be a place that could use some more diversity. I find that the melting pot is not really a melting pot but rather a salad bowl while all in the same bowl, once got mixed but each ingredient eventually finds its preferred spot, the corn kernals eventually ended up at the bottom, the tomatoes around the periphery etc. I have learned about the american culture through my daughter, through her books and things she talks about, things she and her friends like, talking to their parents... An important component of life and a conversation topic here is sport and the basketball, football and baseball teams and games which to me is very challenging to keep up. So I am so glad you are here not only because you are family but just to be able to enjoy a shopping trip and a good meal. I guess it's a family thing, and I must say we are easily satisfied, just give us good food....(something my husband doesn't quite understand). I think the lobster and steamer season is next...

Vivienne asked something funny today...

She wondered if there is a player that is called a "half-back" in a football team since there is a quarterback...

It's a good sign as I think she understands fractions now...
