The Week Before Dansbandskampen
After laying low a while from blogging, I decided that now would be a great time to start up again. DBK is only 5 days away and I not only would like to be able to go back and read through all of the wonderful things I am sure to experience along the way and perhaps even you might enjoy reading about my perspective and experiences as well.
Since the press release went out, I have been very busy doing interviews and getting ready for the show. There is so much to think about!!! Clothes and stylists and preparations of all sorts have been under way and I have enjoyed every second of it. This week is strangely relaxed. Yesterday, I got fitted for the dress I am wearing for the first program. It was a little too long, despite being floor length. It is a gorgeous silk dress with several peacock feathers on it and I feel Oh So Pretty in it. After getting fitted and pinned up in all the right places, it was off to the lingerie store for new bras. There are two things in life that I absolutely HATE shopping for and that is jeans and bras!! I usually wait waaay too long before I buy new ones just because it is absolute torture. I then buy the basics and just get the hell out of there as soon as I can. This time was different. The only place to go in my opinion is Gustav Mellbin in Gamla Stan. They are professional and really know their stuff, saving you time and energy and in the long run, money. I found the perfect strapless Wonderbra and will surely have the perkiest boobs ever to grace a television! HAHA!
Today, I have a telephone radio interview with my darling Thomas Deutgen, a potential lunch meeting and then the rest of the day I will spend sitting in a chair getting hair extensions. My son Paul has basketball practise in the evening. Tomorrow, the kids will go to the dentist, I will get my new hair extensions cut and there is a quickie phone interview with Dagens Nyheter. Thursday, parent/teacher meeting with my younger son Jacob and new acrylic nails in the morning.
Of course, with all of this beautifying, there is also the task at hand of research on this week's bands, which I have studied quite a bit during the weekend. It is a very interesting lineup and I am very keen to hear them live!!
Everyone asks if I am nervous. Am I? Not really and I am not so sure why. Everything feels very natural and under control and I can thank the production for that. They are terribly well-organised and that gives alot of confidence.
So right now life is extremely normal. The washing machine is going, the kids are in school and Lillen is getting his hair cut. Think I'll go and have my newest breakfast obsession: Fresh tomatoes with lemon pepper and keso. (I just can't get enough right now!!)
