Lucia in NYC....

Went to see Lucitag on Manhattan. I'm not really a church person and don't have any real interest of the Swedish Church in New York. Mostly 50+ years people with that organization, at least that's my impression. Anyway they organize Lucia each year and after more than 6 years in this city I have never been. Finally went! Completely overpriced tickets, but whatever. This only happens once a year.

My Lucia craving problem and getting-a-holiday-feeling-issue is solved. Next week there is even a holiday party at work, with singing! Then I definitely will get the holiday feeling up and running. Then all I need to complete my holiday spirit is a light reindeer, big as a grand danois, to put in my apartment. That light reindeer will make my roommate to completely believe that I lost my mind, but that is more than fine. We need a light reindeer in the apartment.

My boss is trying to communicate... Like the "cool" kids.....

Today I came to my desk and found my boss' book on my desk with the following yellow post-it:

"Don't 4-get to update my book.."

4-get? What on earth! She is so not the type that would write something like that. This lady likes high-heels, lipstick and working on herself. "4-get" is so not her word. I'm entertained! My slightly confused boss is trying to connect with me using language, that she believes is from my generation, lol. Should I add that I never write 4-get or gr-8 or some weird world like that. Who does that?! Apparently my boss believes that I write words like that. LOL. 50+ age people communicate with the rest of the world, hilarious.

Gingerbread house..

Yay! Finally the gingerbread house got made. Not my own designed house, pre-cut gingerbread house from IKEA. No time for making a real house for the moment so pre-cut is the deal. Still a gingerbread house though!
