Lost for words


I was spending my time in the doldrums
I was caught in a cauldron of hate
I felt persecuted and paralysed
I thought that everything else would just wait

While you are wasting your time on your enemies
Engulfed in a fever of spite
Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades
Like shadows into the night

To martyr yourself to caution
Is not going to help at all
because there'll be no safety in numbers
When the right one walks out of the door

Can you see your days blighted by darkness?
Is it true you beat your fists on the floor?
Stuck in a world of isolation
While the ivy grows over the door

So I open my door to my enemies
And I ask could we wipe the slate clean
But they tell me to please go fuck myself
You know you just can't win





Listening to; Pink Floyd - Lost for words (!)

I want to dance the Tango
I want to play the Violin
I want to feel the Passion
I want to live. be alive
Come what may..

Helsingborg Skåne

DSB-färjan Svea med Rådhuset och Hamntorget i bakgrunden


Centralstationen - en gång för länge sedan. Nu ligger Knutpunkten här istället - jippie!

Färjestationen - varifrån vi turade en gång i tiden, den här bilden är dock från innan min tid

Och nu - The Tivoli, fortfarande som tur är!
Listening to: Vivali - The Four Seasons - L'autunno (Autumn)

Tea and Harry Potter

Curled up in my big old chair with a cup of tea and listened to Stephen Fry reading the last chapters of Harry Potter and the chamber of Secrets, looked at the wind and the rain outside, lovely monday evening.


Perfect weather at the weekend, Our House had a clearing day in the garden to prepare it for winter, and it was warmish and sunny. We were quite a lot of neighbours helping so we got a lot done. Have to wait and see all if all the bulbs come up in the spring. We planted quite a few; crocus, anemones, tulips of course and some other.

forgot to eat my artichoke, don't matter, it's a nice flower!

Listening to; Porter Wagoner - The Rubber Room

An old sleeping bag

Yes, my life might be a bit poorly, but today I found an old sleeping bag att Erikshjälpens thriftshop and it was so pretty I started talking loudly to myself in the shop, luckily that's not a problem there..

There was actually two of them, I only bought one, might go back and buy the other one as well. I'm going to use it as a bedspread.


Found some other stuff as well, even though I held back like a good trooper!! One beautiful wineglass to my odd collection of old wineglasses, another whiskyglass to my collection of them (got many collections, haha), another London mug, which broke when I washed it, oh well, can use it for something else. Some books as well, the England history book is promising with some good pictures.

Went home on my bike in the rain and wind and sat down with a cup of tea and my embroidery of Banksy's girl with the balloons, watching the first season of CSI: Las Vegas, good old Grissom days. Oh, the crazy and wild life I live!

Still listening to: Lene Lovich - Stateless
