11.56am Tuesday midday. It has been some time since the last post, due to a busy time with school holidays and other travels. Jaana has been working, but sometimes her motivation is a bit low. I think she is looking forward to a bit of slower time over Christmas, even though there will be some exercises then as well. She is talking weekly with the neuropsychologist after which she puts in a bit more effort. She still is quite depressed and such, but we all try to keep her spirit up. Yesterday during her speech session, she was asked how she was feeling and she spelled out: 'S', 'H', 'I', 'T', and smiled! The humour is no problem.
Kids are fine. Three more weeks and it is Christmas holidays! It is a bit hard to imagine with 31 degrees, sun and no real extravagance retail. In the US, I passed IKEA to pick up some herring, ginger cookie dough, julmust etc so I guess we will be getting the atmosphere soon. There will be quite a few families staying around for Christmas so we have decided to have a Christmas day bbq at our home on xmas day. Should be fun.
Parmi is doing fine, and again I need to reiterate her fantastic character and her energy. She is doing so much for Jaana, that you could not believe! Without her, Jaana's, my and the kids life would look very much different.

Hi Jaana, you as usual are working away steadily, i admire your strength and determination, keep it up girl! Jurgen and Parmi, as always you both are such good motivators and give out heaps of positive vibes! Jaana I met a really nice Irish lady named Frances who said she knew you from OFS a couple of years back, her daughter Claire was in pre K with Camille. Do you remember her? They are back in Singapore from Tokyo. All is well in Singapore still.
Take Care Jaana!!! xxx

Hej alla!
Äntligen har jag hittat hit igen och läst ikapp. Tänker massor på er och hoppas att ni mår bra.
Vi stretar på i mörkret och regnet och längtar efter ledighet, men vi alla ska vara lediga mycket i jul. Den firar vi hemma hos oss och det ska bli så skönt. Bokade även en kort skidresa här i Sverige, vi behöver komma bort från renoveringen :)
Tjejerna växer så det knakar, Nellie är 6,5 år nu och har lärt sig att läsa och skriva behjälpligt. Hon börjar skolan till hösten, som ligger nästan vägg i vägg med vårt hus. Nova är en busig tjej med roliga kommentarer.
Hoppas ni får en härlig jul! Ritva avrådde att skicka julkort, det tar tydligen ett halvår för posten att hitta er :) får bli på mailen istället.
Många kramar

Always good to read your news. Jaana you are so determined, it is fantastic. the winter has now fully settled, there is snow on the mountains. Alex broke his leg playing football end of August ...he thought football would be less dangerous than rugby...I still go to Juanito every so often and think of Jaana when I see a bottle of tequilla. Adrien and Manon are doing fine, waiting for Christmas and le Pere Noel. Let me know if you need anything from here or from france.
Lots of love to you all.

Hallå Jaanalainen!
Vill så gärna skicka ett riktigt brev, med snigelmejl till dig men jag har ingen adress.
Har tänkt mycket på dig på sistonde och allt roligt vi hittade på i vår vilda ungdom!
Skicka adressen så kanske jag till och med lyckas få iväg mitt livs första julkort!!
Stor Kram

Hello Jaana,
Just a quick hello to you all. I was hoping to see an update on how things are going with you. Hope all is well and you are planning for a great Christmas.
We are leaving cold Hong Kong heading for hot Sydney over the holidays. I hear you are planning a BBQ for Christmas day, sounds like you will have a great time. Emma says a big hello to Camille. Love to all Danielle x
