In the basement of one of the buildings where I  live we can do our laundry in a common laundry room. There is also one room to hang your stuff to dry and a really big room to iron and to mangle the laundry in. We don’t use it a lot because we have a washing machine in our apartement as well, but sometimes I go down there. Yesterday I sat down besides the really big and noisy fan and tried to look at the flapping blankets and sheets.

The first sentence me and a lot of other Swedish kids learned in English was/is “I buy pink sheet”. The sounds have a different meaning in every Swedish speaking five/six years old minds. “Ouch, poo, wee-wee, shit”. Just wanted you to know!

    “Varför har hon ritat rummet uppochner?”, tänkte jag, men så såg jag! och log! Det var ett tag sen jag såg ett sånt rum trotts att jag har ett i huset…
    Fantastiska färger!
