Hej Lotta
Otroligt roligt att höra från dig. Visst är internet en underbar uppfinning? Förstår att du är kvar i Bay area och trivs där, vilket jag förstår. Varit och hälsade på min kompis Mary-Ellen i S.F. några gånger och det är en underbar stad. Nu har hon flyttat till R.I. och jag sparar för en tur dit.
kram

Hej Anna-Lena! Visst är det kul. Jag läste Annaa Ms blogg först, hon tipsade om Gunnar K, och så hittade jag dig! Läste om ditt politiska engagemang... det imponerar på mig för det är så viktigt. Och det krävs finess och tålamod, och det är svårt.
