It's been ages since I posted and I know that I have been bad at responding to comments and emails via the blog, which is a bad thing and I am sorry for it.

I wanted to say thank you for all your comments and mail, and to say that I do read them all and that I really appreciate them. They make me laugh as well as both inspire me and encourage me to take up the keyboard again.

The reason for not writing is too long and boring to go into, but involves the changeover from Blogger to the supposed new and improved New Blogger, which absolutely sucks. I found myself unable to even access my blog for over TWO MONTHS and then when I could, it would not upload pictures nor publish to FTP. Nor could one get a reply to email requests about the problem. All I could glean from the Blogger help groups was that I was not alone, that FTP and group blogs were all being affected and that despite doing all the things we were told (clearing cache, cookies, trying new browsers etc) nothing helped. And Blogger couldn't really give a damn basically.

So I lost the will to bother about it and just switched off the screen and enjoyed real life, which is still fabulous by the way :)

But many comments and emails later, I decided to have a go again. I will probably slowly fill in the last six months just for my own records if nothing else, but I hope to keep on from now recording my life here in Sweden and showing you pictures of my new home. There is a lot going on here at the moment that I'll fill you in about in the next couple of weeks before we take off for our two months away sailing.

Just wanted to say that it is nice to be back.
