Start of spring season in Sweden

Spring or VÃ¥r (in Swedish) has started early this year. It feels good to have some sunshine. But it also brings with it lot of viral diseases.


So this week was the week of attending our kids who caught the flu and were sick the whole week. As Ana is still finishing her course she couldn't stay home, so it was my turn to stay home with the kids almost the whole week because I can work from home. I have the possibility to work remotely from home, I think it is one of the perks of working for a multinational IT/Telecom company. But one whole week is too much. And that too when the kids are sick and there is no possibility to go out even for a walk. So I had to keep the kids busy with indoor activities when they were not tired or having fever or sleeping. So it was back to TV, video games, painting & drawing, Lego, etc, etc...
But even these indoor activities are entertaining and show the creativity of the kids. Below are some highlights of our kids' artwork from this week.

This week we also had some news about the house. The designers and engineers at Myresjöhus finalized the production details of the house. And here they did the calculation of how much energy our new house shall consume on an average. And the figures are surprisingly good. It is as good as a "passive house". The energy calculations of our new house puts it in the energy class (or energiklass in Swedish) "B". This is considered as one of the best classifications for a house in terms of energy consumption. And given the new regulations in Sweden for new constructions, which states that all new buildings should not exceed limits of energy class "C", our house easily fulfills this criteria. We really feel good about choosing Myresjöhus to build our house as they are the oldest and one of the most technologically advanced companies in the house building domain.
