Something Christmassy and Something Sad

Temperature about +7, even this late in the evening, at 8.30 p.m. Cloudy, very gray day. Strong wind from the Southwest.

There's still some time to the Christmas, but I booked Christmas concert tickets for us to a Music Theatre of two well-known and succesful artists. Eino Grön, a popular music singer of wide range and with a very long career, and Iiro Rantala, a pianist and composer. It's not sure if the day is suitable for us, but when we know it, it's too late to have tickets.

Today I got so sad news. My mother has been hospitalized and is seriously ill. The hospital is 100 km from us and we and my other brother will go there tomorrow to see her. Only 15 minutes is allowed to be with her. It may be her time to go, or not. She is incredibly strong and resilient woman, the trait she's also given to me <3
