Lykkes diary

I just read that 59 school children between 8 and 18 has been blown up by a bomb and killed in a suiside attack in Afghanistan. The children were standing together on the street because they were visiting a sugar factory - when the bomb exploded. Also some teachers got killed. 96 other children and adults were also terribly damaged by the attack and an eye witness said, that adults took the guns from the killed soldiers and ran around while little children were crying, screaming and begging for help - terrified and in pain lying among other dead children/friends and bloody bodies.

wtf is wrong with this world? Seriously. I'm about to believe this planet is NOT a place to put little children into! If they don't get killed in one country - they get r@ped and taped by sick psychopaths in another!

Dammit!!!

25 months
Yesterday 00.05 Peter woke me up with a kiss wishing me a happy 25 months of anniversary. Sweet! Still wonder were time went though. He already been in DK for 5 months - it feels like a month ago we moved ...

Christmas
Soon a usually tied up stressfull december will arrive. In many ways I see the cosyness with that month - in many ways I hate it. Behind cosyness lies a lot of expectations - especially when you have kids. Very soon the 24th is there and we have my family home christmas eve. Between christmas eve and new year peters parents will be here. And even though it is something to look forward too, there is no doubt that it will be as stressfull. All the food we need to buy - all the presents too ... damn, there just is a lot to think about.

I'm not having amanda christmas evening - which rips me up inside. But I have her new years eve this year and I'm sure it will be awesome with the fireworks from all our penthouseapartment windows!

I'm only counting down untill the first of december. I need to preprare the little calender gifts, which is a tradition in Denmark. You give your kids one little gift every morning for 24 days starting the first of december. (well, actually you tell them the goblin hid it to them in a christmas sock ...) - and the 24th it is christmas eve. I actually love preparing this. I already bought tiny little gifts for both girls. Even Sarah is 15 now, she is still too much of a child not to get it. For amanda i bought little things with princess stuff on it. It is more difficult with sarah though I found some bracelets I think she might like.

In the evenings the children television shows a special x-mas serie, one chapter every evening for the same 24th days. The plot usually is, that santa will apear and have a party .. normally the show contains lots of goblins and stuff, stressing and hurrying to make things ready for christmas eve. I loved this when I was a child. For that we had a christmas calender with little gates to open for every day. In there you find a little picture of something.

This is a typical christmas calender - though the ones connected to the tv serie is much nicer:



Expectations for christmas is of course also that you make cosy things with the family - bake and stuff. Now while the kids love to bake, I must admit I dont. But seeing how much fun it always turns out to be, I can live with it Last year we made some funny cakes - and I will most likely do the same this year. The advantage is, that our new place is so much bigger and we have enough space in the kitchen.

One thing I look forward to is, to decorate the new place with goblings and stuff. The children love that - and it is very cosy. This place is so much better to decorate, since the upper floor looks a little like an old house with all the wood and the stairs. I'm sure it will be great.

Health
My tummy is bugging me and has been for now 2 months. I try to keep away from most of what I can't tolerate - like all kind of food with histamines in it - but that means i have to stay away from everything. My allergy is shown now in everything I feel - and it surely takes away a lot of my joy of life. I know that stress is also a serious factor - but I don't know how to handle it - especially not now AFTER the periode with all the stress. Which gotten better now but surely not quite over. I praise lootius for my bf and my kids though at the times were I wish I could just dig myself down and stay away and forget everything. Without them I prolly would!

I just need to relax in my weekdays - and even though I do that f.x. by playing - yet I feel stressed, tired and energy abandoned I'm so tired (the darkeness in these winter days doesn't help) and I feel I'm stressing especially in my mind all the time.

I replaced coffe at work with green tea. I try as much as I can to keep away from citrus, chokolate (yeah right ), redwine, whitewine, nuts, white bread, tomatoes, smoked meat and fish *cries* etc. It is very difficult to be honest... Also I don't sleep too well at nights. I'm sure that also is a factor. I guess life must go on ... "lol"

Entropia
I started some serious crafting again, but am in terrible need of material. I tried out with a new service: TITS (TradeInTerminalService ) - and I did get a nice respond - but my problem is I need crafting material like ores and enmatters mostly. I also offered to craft stuff for people - but non took my offer yet

If I had the money I would deposit 5K peds and just craft and craft and craft lol. I happen to find out that I'm pretty good at weapons. Got a couple of sweet bp's too yesterday. And I get a LOT of skills from it as well.

Still looking for my salamander armor .. nearly giving up Maybe I should buy jaguar instead lol

I'm now 43 points from 6K handgun ^-^ ! 135 hp. I need more lol ...

All for now - work is calling *sighs*
Lootius bless

I have discovered that some people enjoy reading my diary for some of my recipe and food posts!

So here you are ... this years christmas cake ...


Tequila Christmas Cake

Ingredients:
1 cup of water
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp salt
1 cup of brown sugar
Lemon juice
4 large eggs
Nuts
1 bottle tequila
2 cups of dried fruit

Sample the tequila to check quality. Take a large bowl, check the tequila
again. To be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and
drink. Repeat. Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a
large fluffy bowl. Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point
it's best to make sure the tequila is still OK. Try another cup... just in
case. Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and
chuck in the cup of dried fruit.

Pick the fruit up off floor. Mix on the turner. If the fried
druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver.
Sample the lequita to check for tonsisticity. Next, sift two cups of salt.
Or something. Check the tequila. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your
nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can
find. Greash the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall
over. Don't forget to beat off the turner. Finally, throw the bowl through
the window. Finish the tequila and wipe counter with the cat.

CHERRY MISTMAS!
