Life at the house

Thursday, 31^st March

I skyped with Barbara, they have decided to hold a memorial service. They received the ashes last week. It was hard for them, the grieving started all over again. The service will not be until November. Her and Erik are getting married then as well. We will of course travel over for the service and the wedding. They have had no further interest in the house.

The boy did not go to the gym or his classes, he is still not 100%. We went for a drive for an hour, he was fine.

Friday, 1^st April

Of course he passed!

He went to yoga, to class and then he had the test. The last one of the day, he was the only one to pass that day!

I was at the flat, I had to wait for the sofa to be delivered. It did not feel like my flat. Lasse helped me make the bed, we had bought all new bedding, linen and towels.

Lasse is not himself again, they are going back to their GP next week.

The flat does not feel like my place anymore. We have packed all the leather gear and brought it to the house, even if we have some items double, they need to be looked after.

I checked the list for the stuff in the kitchen, some items I did not know I had! The slave has taken some things, he had bought some baking stuff. I never used to bake.

Saturday, 2^nd April

We went shopping in the morning, the boy put some food into the flat for our tenants. He is so caring! He has written them some instructions: where the supermarkets are, which restaurants are good, about live in Stockholm as a foreigner, which attractions to see. I am sure he still has to discover lots himself. What we cannot advise on, is gay( friendly) bars, we only ever go to one.

Both speak good Swedish, but were grateful for the tips, they do not know Stockholm well.

I do not think we will socialise, they are in their late 40's, and seemed very reserved.

Sunday, 3^rd April

The snow is all gone, it was a sunny day, we went for a drive, to the eastern side, we have not been that way before.

It felt a bit strange coming back to the house knowing we will be here all the time. I want to make every room ours, we certainly did that in the living room!
