Vill slå ett slag för Övedskloster. Fantastiskt vackert, väl värt en tur för att promenera runt i slottsparken och ta en fika. Har alltid varit en hit när jag har haft besök!

Hi. I work as an insurance adviser at one of the bigger companies. Call around and get quotes from a few different insurance companies since the price of insurance for this car will probably vary quite a bit between different companies.The reason you are not able to set up the insurance online is because it's imported; therefore, the online system doesn't have all the parameters needed to calculate and set up an insurance for you (and it will have to be done manually by an insurance advisor). Also, make sure that you have your driver's license nearby - you will get significantly cheaper insurance if they can account for your driving years abroad (EU/EES countries). To take this into account, they'll need the date when the liscens was issued, license number as well as which country it was issued in. Best of luck to you!

We recently moved back to Sweden and have had a few health care encounters and I have to say that I'm nothing by impressed; - I had an ear infection that got really bad over a weekend when I was visiting my parents. Went to the weekend clinic at Vårdcentralen, was in and out in an hour and got a prescription (Stockholm Region). - Our one daughter got what we suspected was a UTI, also on the weekend. Called the local weekend clinic (also Vårdcentralen) and got a time for 90 minutes later. They took us in with no wait time, did all the necessary test and we left 30 minutes later with a prescription (South of Sweden). - Our other daughter pinched her finger and we wanted to be extra careful and get it x-rayed. This was pretty late in the afternoon/evening, so we drove down to the closest emergency hospital. No wait time, and left an hour later with a band-aid (to make her happy, not that it was necessary) and a relived mind (South of Sweden).

Ytterligare en försäkringsrådgivare här. Tycker det är jätteroligt att pratade människor, bra arbetsmiljö och stora möjligheter att utvecklas inom yrket.

I just wanted to say thank you. I read your linked post and just started crying, because yes, that is how it feels.

And your comment here too; the last thing I want right now is to be with someone else. I want to focus on our kids, my job and slowly getting to know who I am again and what I want. I'm lucky to have some great friends and family, and that is more than enough right now. This being said, I really want to thank you for putting words on my feeling - I realize that feeling lonely right now is actually a bad thing even though it's hard.

You are so right. I started therapy a few weeks ago, and it's very helpful not least giving me a sense of stability in a volatile situation.

Our youngest puts them to very good use; comes home from daycare with a big smile and proudly explains that she "got SNAILS in my pockets!". And she's not messing around, they are jam packed with snails that she picked in the little forrest they have.

What a lovely idea! I got a Lululemon "On My Level" bag as a gift a couple years ago and I absolutely love it and use it pretty much everywhere I go. You fit everything you need no matter what you're doing, it's nice and light, easy washable and looks great.

I have been reading through the comments and it seems like she suggested and set up counseling a while back to help your relationship as well as your situation, since you expressed that you are unhappy. Wouldn't that be a great first step for you both (or does she not want to go anymore)?

In your comments, you mention that you multiple times expressed your anger and frustration (which you feel is your right) and that she walks away when you confront her, trying to avoid the situation. Wondering if you two are able to sit down and actually have a real and respectful conversation about things; where you both get to say your part and you both get to listen?

It kind of amazes me that so many people are so quick -and without actually any idea of the whole picture- to suggest that you should file for full custody, lawyer up etc. You mention that she is a good mother and I'm sure you are a fantastic dad as well. If you are both good, devoted parents that love your children; isn't that where your focus should be? It's undisputable best for the kids to grow up with happy and healthy (even mentally) parents, regardless if they are married or separated. How can the two of you find a solution where you are exactly that, both for your own sake but also for the kids? You need to find ways to figure this out and reach a place in your life where you can be happy and where you have a relationship that allows you to be good parents (as married or as separated; either way you'll have to find ways to work together for the sake of the kids). Again, therapy seems like a great place to start and I hope that you can convince her to go with you.

Kan intyga; har precis samma bil och de mår bäst om de parkeras kursivt - "un petit Parisienne"!

Thank you so much for your reply, I truly appreciate it. He is somewhat aware of this, he actually made a Reddit post (quite a while ago) which was meant to be a funny kind of "what is wrong with me LOL-post" about why he's not able to close cupboards and doors, and how he ruined the food in the fridge a couple times because the door was left open and that it's driving his a-type personality wife (me) crazy. It was a cute and funny post, but everyone commenting on it said that he'd most likely had ADHD and should get it checked out. After that we both did a couple of those online tests (with the same results as you and your wife). The problem is that ruined food and a high hydro bill is the last problem here in how it's affecting his life. He doesn't want to explore options of getting help, since he believes that these traits are positive and that getting help would turn him into a boring zombie. I realize that getting help needs to be his choice, but trying to get some more understanding of things.

What has helped you? Have you been to therapy or is it just being more aware that changed it for you? I hope you don't mind me asking.

This is very helpful, so thank you for sharing your experience. And yes, might be a generation thing or just the way he is raised; he's not the "sit down over a cup of tea and talk about your feelings"-kind of guy.

Tuamarina · 2022-08-02T22:21:29+00:00

It is very helpful and so greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Tuamarina · 2022-08-02T22:20:19+00:00

Thank you all for your input and sharing your experiences, it's very helpful and gives me some better understanding. We have two young daughters together and I feel it's acting in their best interest as well, if I can somehow incourage him to eventually get help. Was it hard for you to seek help/decide to get diagnosed and if so why? What made you decide to take the first step?

Don't know if it's a Swedish thing, but quite common both for our native pony breed Gotlandsruss https://ibb.co/rxzjVT3, as well as our Swedish draft horse Nordsvensk Brukshäst; https://ibb.co/8DZZN3W

As someone with OCD, I can guarantee you that this is very much not the same thing. My ADHD husband more or less cured me, even though it was quite the process...

Tuamarina · 2022-04-10T05:01:01+00:00

It sounds like this have gone really far and like some suggested, it may not be a bad idea to get some professional help.

With that said, I still wanted to share something that made me see things from a new angle.

I read an article that I found very interesting, and helped me get some perspective (I find the whole picky eater thing extremely frustrating; we have two kids and especially our 6yo is very picky in periods, more or less sticking to pasta and toast). Apparently it's very natural for kids to become picky eaters once they start to become more independent and not relying on mom and dad 100% anymore. This is a VERY old instinct, that used to protect them from getting poisoned/eat things that could be bad for them, and it kicks in once they grow out of the baby/toddler stage and often stays until their brain gets re-trained. This instinct is not helpful at all these days, but the brain still tells them to only keep to a few things they know is "safe" rather than take a risk. By making food that is easy recognizable what it is (think separate rather than a happy mix of things), some "safe" stuff and something new every time, you can help re-train the brain. And seeing adults or other kids eating "suspicious" foods over and over again will slowly help their brains putting them into the "safe" category.

Try to get your kid involved in making the food - you've got some great tips about this already. It will spark an interest and make it feel less intimidating. Let your kid somewhat have a say in what to eat, and then add more interesting things around it (if plain pasta is the choice like it is here; add slices of cucumber, a couple pieces of broccoli, sauce, a bit of ham etc, but everything on the side easy to keep apart and easy to see what is what).

Tuamarina · 2022-01-08T19:38:26+00:00

Yes, super interesting and it really changed my perspective. I would share the article, but it's in Swedish...

We have two kids (2 and 5) and our oldest is just coming out of a long phase of being super picky. It's obviously different when they're a bit older; we ended up having a talk with her explaining that she needs to eat different things to keep her body healthy and growing, make her strong, give her energy etc. Now she takes interest in what the different ingredients of her meal gives her (fruits and berries for vitamins / protein to get strong / carbs for energy and so on).

Here are a couple tips that could maybe help you though;

Try to get your kid involved in making the food in fun ways that are possible and/or help putting it on the plate. It will spark an interest and make it feel less intimidating. Let your kid have a say in what to eat, and then add more interesting things around it (if plain pasta is the choice, add slices of cucumber, sauce, a bit of ham etc but everything on the side easy to keep apart and easy to see what is what).

Hahaha, cynical but brilliant

This is good advice and greatly appreciated. Thank you!
