Was it something I said?


Today Pope Benedictus XVI announced that he is resigning from his post, which apparently is huge news in the catholic world as only 3 predecessors have resigned over the past 2000 years(!)

So, Mr. Pope, when we met back in 2010; was it something I said? Call me, maybe.


"Me and the Pope? Oh, we go way back!"

Hard at work or hardly working?


Well, a bit of both to be honest. Shaena and I are both busy bees working fulltime now and we are getting into a good routine with dagis drop-offs and pick-ups, but at the same time; February is the worst month of the year in Sweden for coughs, flus and seasonal yuckiness. Hence, we’ve both spent quite a lot of time not working unfortunately.

Besides both of us working fulltime; I am also working away on a huge website project, which is exciting, but most exciting of all is the prospect of not working for a bunch of weeks in four or so months! It seems a long way away now when it’s still cold and dark, but summer is fast approaching and we definitely have our mind set on an awesome trip around Canada!

Speaking of traveling; your truly was recently voted ‘Role Model Of The Year’ by his peers at work and won himself a weekend for two to any European city where CareerBuilder has an office(!) Oh, and I also won VIP event tickets for two to the Globe Arena so the Mrs. and I will be going to see Pink when she is in town in May. Sweet, eh!

Here’s a few snaps from our latest antics with the boys:
