Christmas cactus

Problems with the internet connection in the past week made it impossible for me to make any new post. Now that it seems to be in order, I´ll immediately post a colourful photo, to offset the dark november collage. This little chistmas cactus is from my mothers home. She bought it a few months before she died. Every winter, it sends me these wonderful red flowers, reminding me of how unpredictable our life is.

November

Scott  Views Infinitum has made a new assignment, this time the theme is “November”. Please join if you like.

November in Denmark means increasing darkness, bad weather and not many people at the streets. This year, we have had only 3 (three) hours of november-sunshine. My collage is made by photos taken the past days, sorry for the missing optimism. I´ll make a more colorfull as my next post.

I´ve said it before; this kind of weather is a good reason to stay inside and HYGGE, with a lot of christmas cakes and candy. Did I tell you that christmas is here? Well it is – in the shops! And we, -the customers- are easy to persuade buying it all, in the name of  HYGGE. No one can see the extra weight it causes anyway, in these dark months.

Rain, rain and more rain

No sun for the next 10 days, said the meteorologist this morning… he´s not popular!

Grown-up.

My son is 18 today. “Come of age” is what I can find in the wordbook right now. We are calling it “MYNDIG”, which means that he according to the law is a grown-up.

He is allowed to vote, to drive a car, (with a license), sign any dokument, get any kind of payment card, borrow money, get married, buy cigarets, ……oh dear, life was more easy, when all there was to worry about, was if the hiding place would be discovered……. At least for me!

Happy birthday!
