Happy Friday! So, where did this week really go? We barely know what we've done, and yet we've been busy. Do you sometimes feel like that too ... that the days just disappear?

Where did the week go?
On Thursdays, when I write this week's Happy Friday post, I usually check my phone to see what photos I've taken during the week. This week, I had taken a total of two photos ... of two dishes. So, the question is, what did we actually do all week?
It feels like we have been busy, but it has included some pretty "boring" things such as doctor's appointments, dentist's appointments and that we acted as a moving help. The only "fun" thing about the dentist visit was that it was SEK 1,500 cheaper (or less expensive rather) than expected. Happy Friday!
Preparations for "Stockholm Caravan Motorhome"
One thing we are doing right now is preparing for the fair Stockholm Caravan Motorhome which will be held at Stockholmsmässan in Älvsjö on 13-16 March.
We will lecture every day at 14:00 on "10 picturesque towns in Germany". The lectures will take place at the All About Motorhomes stand, AG:710. Maybe see you there?
The fair takes place at the same time as the Everything for the seaand the ticket is valid for both fairs!
Blogging problems - difficult to comment
When I can't "work" anymore, I like to relax by reading blogs. Many people like podcasts and YouTube, but I usually prefer reading to listening. One challenge for me is that sometimes my comments don't get through.
I write a comment and press send and then... nothing happens. Sometimes I have tried to contact the blogger on email or social media, but sometimes it is difficult to find contact details
So, if you have a blog, don't forget to check your spam from time to time!
Best this week
The best thing this week? It's probably that we finished a bunch of things that needed to be done. In addition, we have worked on the upcoming travel agency and had several good meetings. Small, step by step, it goes forward!
Your turn ... what is the most positive aspect of the week?
The week ahead
So what happens in the week ahead? Most of the week we'll be at home in Stockholm, but at the end of next week we'll actually be going on an adventure in Sweden - a completely private pleasure of a kind we rarely indulge in. Of course, we'll tell you more a little later!
Here on FREEDOMtravel, we will be reporting on some of the cultural attractions in Sweden and on one of our closest neighbouring countries. Don't miss it!

Lena - good for the soul says:
Good that you got in touch about the comments. I found yours in the spam and more may end up there.
Yes, gosh, so many times you felt that you didn't get anything done even though you did something spot on all the time with full speed in addition. It's a challenge to feel satisfied with what you've actually achieved!
A challenge is also to find something positive this week since last Friday. On Saturday Andreas passed out with the flu and on Tuesday it started small for me and then hit hard. I have soooo hard to just lie in bed! But there I found the positive, I have watched Youtobe films and got inspiration for travel in central and southern Europe. Good there!
And now I've finally caught up with my reading in here. Again! 🙂

Yes, your blog was one of those where I had a hard time commenting, but there are more... Thanks for looking in the spam and solving it all!!! 🙂 Much more fun when you can comment! I'm glad you found something to do in bed, and I'm impressed that you've caught up with us! 😉

I reinforce this with the fact that it chews, with WordPress it always seems to come out despite the fact that it gets like that, but more difficult with blogg.se and Nouw I can't even get into anymore 😔.
So fun that you/you will be lecturing at the fair 😊

I can't remember exactly what kind of blogs I have problems with, but sometimes it looks like it's going away... but then it never gets published... Kind of sad! And yes, it will be fun to lecture at the fair! 🙂

There have been and are some problems with some blogs which is very annoying to say the least.
The best thing about this week is that one of our grandchildren has had an operation today. The worst thing is that the father in the family is really ill so I hope it is not cancelled.
What appealing food pictures 😀

Yes, it is sad, and annoying, when you can't comment! On some blogs, I see that others can comment, but my comments do not appear ...

Totally agree with the sadness of comments not getting through and sometimes not being in anyone's spam either. WP seems to be doing well, but there are blogging platforms that don't like WP and wonder if that's why they screw up.
It has been a great week with a lot of culture in the form of art exhibitions and some walking. combined with meeting friends and sitting down in a restaurant.
This week I have received a job request from SVT which I have accepted and it will be both fun and exciting.
Wishing you a great weekend!
PS when you wrote this week about Lighthouse Cruises with Birka Gotland, we had already booked. Was on a similar one several years ago and it was really nice. We like both sea and boats. And it seems to sell well ...

Annika on Travel Friday says:
Yes, how strange - several of your comments have ended up in my junk mail.
We have had a great week here in Thailand, me and Nelly. The best thing was probably to watch the planet parade!

Annika says:
I know, I've noticed it myself. Sometimes my comments go nowhere. And I've noticed that people who comment on my site sometimes become anonymous. Or, as you say, they end up in the spam folder.
I think it's a Blogger/blogspot problem, but maybe it applies everywhere. It's a shame.
So nice with you there among the houseboats. You can see by the light that it is spring winter.
Mmmm.... your food, makes me hungry. A nice weekend I wish you both!

Missed one blog bridal shower, but will probably attend the next one (K might come, and then it will be harder). But I'm with you, those who comment faithfully on your blog really do become friends. How lovely. You and I have known each other through our blogs for so long and it's wonderful! Friends yes, got such proof of true friendship when I was home recently, got all teary eyed. And the girls I've come to know here are wonderful. The Betty books, how I loved them! Anna, have a nice and pleasant weekend! Hugs!!!
PS, this is the second attempt. The first went up in smoke ...
