high enough.... true .....
regarding dancing and singing and feeling great..
I get lovely feelings listening to this song and it also reminds me about happiness and sharing..so much.
Raise the volume and sing it from your heart... I do, I dedicate it to a person who deserves it, need it and is very welcome.
Tammi and Marvin.. you do it in a joyful way... how hard can it be to let the happiness flow?

" she sucks"........ but "stay the night "
Sitting in the sofa... watching the Swedish Eurovison song contest together with my son Robin 6 years old.
In between he comes to my knee, and in between we dance a bit.. and our energy definately depends on the tempo and the hit feeling in the songs..
One of them was / is our favourite so far and we both danced when Stay the night ...was played
and ... one of them was definately so crazy bad ... sorry to say...
and the best evidence and reaction for this was my sons very young and fashionable comment in the most calmest way when he listened fascinating to this song .....
" she sucks"..... he just said.. frank and straight out in the air....
ehhhh.... he just stared at the television and I asked him...--- excuse me sir .. what did you just say?
" she sucks " ..... he stated again.... in swedish it is.. " hon suger"
Well.., honestly.. I have to agree... the title and the content of the song was not my favourite topic or neither my favourite singer so.. I agree.
Damn... the youngsters today really have their expressions and this one he must have learned by his lovely older brothers... but also.. from all the others that nowadays use that expression..
Sing on..
I put some of my money on the group Alcazar... Stay the night..
Happiness , fashion and dancing and a great tempo. I hope they will be one of the top 3 this year.

Retrospective
The "retrospective" in Scrum is supposed to be done by the end of the sprint to state the situation, get the health check of the ongoing work and make sure you go on forward by using the lessons learned and go for the right next sprintplan.
Today I did a smaller retrospective of this week number 6 and honestly .. it has been a sprint I will never forget.
From a critical red Monday to a Friday filled with laughs, happy goodbye but also.. future sharing, planning and the statement of earning trust.
Today I went to the office for Nordea IT and gave away my laptop, keys and everything else requested after 22 years employment. Sad`?? well.. not really. Filled with respect to a company that have been open to all my carréer plans and development on many levels and that have supported me all the way in my ideas, energy and full execution... well I am just very calm but also ready for somethin new.
So.. no way.... no sorrows... I leave the company with great happiness and a mindset "lets keep in touch". You can imagine doing a full retrospective of the 22 years... I just did a very small one here.... enough for now.
Planning.... after a retrospective you start to plan for another sprint. And so we did.. A short, explosive and wanted sprint with sharing and trust as the target.
feels great, good and exiting.. and I long to walk on the beach and feel the wind in my hair and neck.
And maybe.... I dare to put my feets in the water... I want to swim

Please dont stop the music..
Several times here on the blog I have presented songs and lyrics that I like and connect to.
Typically... Please dont stop the music,.. Rihanna... a great dance and singing girl.
Some of the blogreaders here kept complaining to me on those posts... that they were to boring. And some.... recommend this blog on music sites... eh.. that was funny.
So I am a music person as well.. by the way,,did you know that I played violin for several years in my younger days? No.. how could you...
I did and I loved it, especially when I played in the orchestra. I was not very found of doing the weekly homeworks alone in my rooms since violin sounds best in team, at least is that what I think . With my full attention i joined the orchestra and played with happiness and koncentration and I truly enjoyed it.
My mother used to ask me to not play to high and she never ever checked upon my trainings .. she did not like the noice at all. My father instead, he asked for concerts, layed in the bed and I played all the things to him gladly. I guess he wanted some payback for the halfyearly fee that he loved to pay even if I know it was quiet much at that time.
Nowadays.. the violin is kind of very dusty and I dont play that much. Some years ago I played a lot to some rocksongs... as I got hooked up and had a crush on the electric violin sound... its very cool I think.
I think I am born with music in my blood, I love to listen to and learn lyrics and of course sing them out loud all the songs coming on the radio.
And sometimes I think some songs are just coming in the right occasions and moments just for you.
Its even more nice when somebody else send you a song with a reminder that this one .. this is for you.
Today, I got a song sent to me. Thank you. I will keep it for myself for a while.. and publish it later.
It is not this song... but this is the one I am dancing heavily to in my car driving back and forth at the moment. Its energy and it is a lovely rythm in it and also.. its co written by one Swedish guy, familiar in the Swedish Idol jury. Damn... they are good these 3 guys. As I looked at the record I could see that all 3 of them were involved in almost all songs on that record. I am impressed. Anders Bagge, Laila Bagge och Andreas Carlsson, you are just great. Keep on writing.

Blogs- Inspiration in your software development work.. hopefully some Agile mindset included
The financial news all around the world and shown on telivision are not very positive at the moment. We are all affected in one way or another. So far I have not noticed very much here in the hotel of the ongoing crise but this week I think we just are aware. Not many guests really but ok.. i have been very lucky or what ever, and it is so far still good business.
I wonder how the organizations are dealing with their employees out there at the moment? I miss my manager position among the architects and developers where I could feel and touch upon their energy and innovation minds almost every day. Some are more hot then others but I loved to hear and see the synergize in their work and co-operation together.
I hope that IT companies take the opportunity to make this financial crise to something good and take the advantaged of the power, skill and potential in all.
My experience but also fear says and is that they way companies deal with cutting down issues are managed in such a lousy way that people get drained of future positive mindset and also.. mindset for keep on innovating , maintain and improve the existing golden systems, skills and people with capacity to grow.
I have told you before.. I am not to much impressed by things normally as I want to be impressed by all humans... but ok... I have my three favourite IT guys I like and that I want to recommend to you out there. Of course there are some more.. but ok.. i list these guys.
No matter crizes, depression and cost-cutting these guys are going strong and keep the innovation floating and... never stops. Thank godness for that.
Grady Booch, Jim Webber and Scott Ambler. You keep inspiring me with your writings and work and almost always add a great laugh. I cant live without laughing.
I recommend their blogs for furhter inspiration and good value.

For real....
Some things are for real and some things are not.
When I stepped out in the hall to watch this huge fantastic rocket I was stunned. Is it really a real one.. ? Has it it been in the air... in the atmosphere and in space and what?
Tonight I was reminded about my last trip to US and Florida and I have great feelings, memories and photos from it.
Japp.. its me, standing in front of Apollo something I dont know if it was 5 or 13... and it actually did not matter that hot day, neither today.
To me it matter the feeling I had when seeing it for the first time. Impressive and fantastic and so much smile in me that day.
As you can see.. its huge and huge and I still think of the take off for this kind of rocket. So much energy and power.
Fantastic. And it is for real.
