Royalty

I have not been posting too much lately because there's not a lot of new things to say.

My new computer is working fine and I have been downloading and uploading stuff, and playing with it.

I watched the wedding of Sofia and Carl from Sweden. They had 3 royal weddings in the last 5 years, all of them were great .There was also the birth of Victoria and Madeleine daughters, and just yesterday Madeleine had a baby boy.

I have to admit I was surprised at the amount of horrible comments about Sofia's past. To me they looked to be so happy and so much in love. It's interesting how many royals have married "commoners". I guess they need new blood, there's been too much inbreeding. BTW I think the boyfriend of her sister Lina was very good looking ;)

I'm just wondering who pays for all that? the Swedish taxpayers? I have read there's a lot of Swedish people that love the royals -my sister among them- but also there's a lot that  don't  like the Monarchy. I think the same happens in a lot of countries with royals. I know the Spanish Monarchy is not loved by the majority of people in Spain.

I liked to see their weddings and baptisms, etc. I like to look at the way they dress and act, is fun. I enjoyed the baptism of the baby twins of Monaco. Is just like movies, wearing their tiaras, and long dresses and just being royals :)

I was not going to write about royalty, it just happened. If you want to see the latest news and pictures of royalty, this is a great site:

Here they are, the new royal couple

CHAMPIONS!!!!!!

I just had to write about FC Barcelona winning the European Champions cup against Juventus of Italy.

I watched the whole thing and I was jumping up and down (not really) and cheering. Som mes que un club!

Barcelona 3 - Juventus 1   It was a great game!

And another great sport news. 

American Pharoah became the first Triple Crown Winner

 in 37 years!

Happy Birthday Sandy!

Today my oldest daughter turns 49 !

Happy Birthday Sandy

 I hope you have a lovely day. 

I am very proud of the woman you've become. 

 I love you!

Still no computer

This month I've returned 2 new computers to Hewlett Packard.

It's been a very frustrating time for me.

I am now using my old computer. It freezes every so often. I can't do much with it. It overheats. I need to buy ANOTHER computer! soon.

No update tonight.
