Chocking nudity

Yesterday I spoke t my friend Katrin. We both work a lot (well, Katrin quite a lot more then me at the moment) and are trying to juggle work, family life, kids and some social activities. I think that 80% of the time that we call each other we do not have the time to talk (and we like to talk) so we usually speak to each other at nighttime. Yesterday we spoke for an hour around nine and then agreed to continue an hour later (Katrin had to get some more work done). At eleven I decided to take a shower and go to bed but just as I turned on the water the phone rang.

Out I went, into our dark bedroom in search of the phone. After six months we still have no lamp in our bedroom! I found the phone and did what I guess most people do who are on the phone. You go to a place where there is light as it feels a bit odd to sit in a dark room. After 20 minutes (time always goes very fast with Katrin!) I realized that I was standing in our lit, window filled hallway at nighttime wearing absolutely nothing! Luckily Ulricehamn does not have an extreme nightlife and our street is more or less dead at night but anyway. God knows how many people who passed our house yesterday evening seeing a phone speaking naked woman on the second floor.

I am not an exhibitionist and you will not even see me topless on a beach in summertime. I envy people who are so comfortable with their bodies that they can be as they are but I am just not like that. The only time people see me naked is when I forget to put on the swimsuit at the swimming pool (happened years ago) or when I mistake a shopping window for a toilet (a very complex and embarrassing story). Actually me friends have selected me as the person with the most embarrassing moments but as I suffer from a very selective memory I live under the notion that I am a controlled and serious person.

Today I am off to give a presentation about international work in an educational environment for headmasters and leaders in Ulricehamn. I will focus on how we reach the once that are not interested in international encounters and how one can be international without leaving Ulricehamn. As a mother of 3 I know how difficult it is to travel and be away for several days but there are many ways of making the world come to you!
Time for work! Have a great day!
