Hi everyone

This is my Halloween greetings for you all. Some years ago we did not do anything at Halloween in Sweden, but the world is getting smaller and the influences bigger.

The summer in Sweden has been very hot, but now autumn winds are roaring and we are getting close to winter. Today though, the sun is shining and the ground is covered with leaves and apples in all colors. 

All the flowers are in my basement, where I hope some of them will survive. The dream is to have a greenhouse, but the heating would cost to much.

A lot has been done during the summer with the house and the garden. A friend has helped me and even climbed up on the front side of the main building to paint it. Some people ring me and ask if I had the house painted red. It has been red since 1979 :)

The boarding cattery is freshly painted and I hung flowers everywhere. It looked very nice and you can see for yourself at:

My new cat has arrived. You can see him and read about him at:

This night he had his first roar with a neighbor male cat. It woke me up and I flew out of my bed. I can assure you he is keeping me very busy.

Some of you might have noticed that I am not online very much nowadays. I frankly don't know why and isn't it typical, I used to go out by a modem and pay by the minute. Now I have ADSL and don't use it:) Silly me. And I miss all my friends on Internet.

I hope you all have a nice winter and don't give up, summer will come again as it does every year.
