Happiness is... a long chat with mum


Summer time is a busy time for my parents, they keep themselves busy with a wide range of things. Today I talked to my mum for the first time in a while. She gave me an account of what has been happening since we last spoke. She told my about when they went to their local Ikea looking for something particular. And those of you who are familiar with Ikea know that you cannot visit the store without walking through at least half of it! I can imagine the look on my dad's face when something he thought would be quick and easy turned into a mini marathon in a furniture store!

Above is a picture of my childhood home, it probably also provides the explanation to why I love red timber houses with white trim.

Idag pratade jag med min mamma efter en lang paus. Sommartid ar brada tider for mina forldrar, darfor ringer dom mer sallan. Idag fick jag en uppdatering pa bade ett och annat som har hant. Bland annat fick jag hora om nar hon pappa besokte Ikea senast. Dom skulle bara titta in som snabbast, dom sokte efter nagot speciellt. Men ingen Ikea-visit ar nagonsin snabb och enkel. Herr Kamprad har utvecklat ett fiffigt koncept vilket innebar att man maste ga igenom storsta delen av butiken innan man hittar utgangen. Jag kan forestalla mej pappas min nar nagot sa enkelt blir sa komplicerat!

Bilden forestaller mitt barndomshem, och erbjuder sakert ocksa en forklaring till varfor jag alskar roda hus med vita knutar.
