Happy Lucia my fellow heathens :D
Third Advent yesterday :)
Oh yeah the Christmas tree got some lights and candy canes :D
Ronnie and I went for some shopping in the morning and then we went to the church to buy tickets for today’s Lucia concert :)
Beautiful day requires a few pictures :)
Today I am sending my mail.
9 extra black letters are being mailed today. And 3 charity postcards tomorrow.
The weekend was busy-busy and Lazy -Lazy at the same time:)
Someone has been taking pictures of me while I was working :p
Mom is coming a lil later today and at 20:00 o’clock we are going to church for Lucia. This is funny to me because I have seen all sorts of concerts with my mother, I have seen my first Diamanda Galás with my mother you know. But this is the first time ever we are going together to a Church to watch a religious ceremony … Of course Swedes treat it as a concert or family event, since it is usually their children in the quire. Nevertheless it is a concert in a church and I never thought I would ask my mother: “hey mom. Wanna go to church (on Lucia)?”
And this goes to my friends who think that if they go into a church their reputation is going to be blemished … Being an Atheist does not mean I cannot enjoy tradition! Why, out of spite? Ach, grow up.
Please read rhythmically …
A one, a two, a one two three four …
Click to viewNatten går tunga fjät runt gård och stuva.
Kring jord som soln förgät, skuggorna ruva.
II: Då i vårt mörka hus, stiger med tända ljus
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia :II
Natten var stor och stum, nu hör det svingar
i alla tysta rum, sus som av vingar.
II: Se på vår tröskel står, vitklädd med ljus i hår
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia :II
Mörkret skall flykta snart, ur jordens dalar
så hon ett underbart ord till oss talar.
II: Dagen skall åter ny stiga ur rosig sky.
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia :II
Apart from the Lucia song, Staffansvissan is my favorite :D
There … some more randomness … Happy Lucia!
:D
Unintentionally this one reminds me one of my favorite movies … if you guess it you win … ;)
