Oh, so tired...

...I am today...I couldnt go to sleep yesterday so I only got 5 hours of sleep and now my eyes are soooo tired I almost cant open them...

I need to wake up the boys now and have the last packing done before taking a cab to the airport and fly to Stockholm. When we arrive we will be picked up and driven to the hotel and then at 1.30 its time for my rehersals with the choir and orchestra;=)

So, I will be back a little later with report from the day...

And thanks to all of you again for the incredible wishes and comments about Kulan;=) The vet calls me during the day so you will get a full report about her too.

62 comments:

  1. Poor you, no wonder you could not sleep well with all the stress and worries in your heart. I hope that you have some time later to sleep in the hotel or maybe in the plane.
    Try to take good care of yourself, Kulan is in the best of hands and she will be fine.

    Kitty Power!!

    Enjoy the stay in Stockholm and the rehearsals with the orchestra. Will give you an advantage to the boys for when Nightwish will play with an orchestra one day. You can be "been there done that" then =) haha

    All my love,
    Katrin

  3. "my rehersals with the choir and orchestra"?
    Have you planned to sing with a choir/orchestra by yourself or is it for future (final) Nightwish show(s)?

  5. Hej Anette!

    Jag hörde en äldre inspelning med dig när du sjöng med en kör. Det lät fantastiskt, så jag tror att detta kommer att gå vägen. Jag såg att du kommer att sjunga den 13:e här i Stockholm på kulturfestivalen. Antar att det är det du övar inför! :-) Ser fram emot det!

    Och som du sa, tyvärr finns det inte någon "rätt tid" för tråkigheter, men jag håller tummarna för dig och skickar positiva tankar!

    Och med visa ord från Galaxyquest avslutar jag detta inlägg "Never give up, Never surrender" (Det gäller kulan också) ;-)

  6. Hey Anette :)

    If you have some time on your own, try to relax and maybe get 1 or 2 hours of sleep, may that helps to bring you up. Hope you will have a good day.
    Dont let yourself down, try to think positvie ;)

    A Big Hug and BIIIG Pack of LPLH for you :) (LOVE POWER LUCK HAPPINESS)

    Love and Respect
    yours Chris :)

  7. Hey. I hope you will be okay, you just need to be strong!
    Sorry for asking that but I obviously missed something: how come do you have a solo concert? :) i think it's very nice.

    All the best & big hugs.

  8. I hope you have a nice gig, and try to forget the suffering of your cat for a while, just because the people who will be there to see you have few opportunities to see you all and they expect the best for you(Maybe it's a unique moment in their lives, or it would be in mine, at least)... I hope your cat get better, and maybe everything's going to end up in a happy end... It's a kind of good luck if you discovered this ill in its early 'life', so you can try to save your cat, it would be a way worse if you had discovered it too later. I know it won't comfort you but try to 'runaway' from this issue while you're in the stage.

    You're getting better gig by gig, your voice is getting even better as you keep in tour.

    Have a nice gig.

    Lots of hugs from Brazil.

  9. You should have bit of a sleep while travelling...

    Wish I could go to Suomi Safari but I live in the UK and can't :(

    Hope I see footage of it somewhere, best wishes with Kulun.

  10. Önskar jag kunnat se på den konserten i Sthm. Men som sagt som det stod i HD idag så ska ni ju låna ut er musik till Malmö Opera som ska göra en dans föreställning med operakören och orkestern!

    Gissa vem som ska dit? Jaag!

    Stay strong :)

  12. Good morning Anette, how are you? I hope you are ok. Don't thanks to us... you deserve the wishes for Kulan! I love you Anette!! Big hugs

  13. Hei Nettan,

    That's no good. Being tired really sucks and *laughs* you have to wake them? What lazy, loveable guys xP

    Oh good! I'm glad we'll all hear something about Kulan. I hope that you'll do better Nettie.

    Oddly enough, my brother lost his cat Kayo yesterday :( And now his other one, Miko, still hasn't come home yet. I really like his cats and I've owned one before and adored him. I know how you feel Anette and I really hope Kulan gets better <3

  14. Good morning Anette!
    I wish you a nice time in Stockholm, even though I know your thoughts will be with Kulan all the time. Just remember she feels your love and it's helping her heal even when you're not at home! =) Try and get some sleep when you can, I know when you're worried for your pet you just forget of taking care of yourself (I do the same!), but you still need to have energy, for yourself and for her! =)
    Stay strong and let the power of love and music run through you, as it will certainly reach Kulan as well =)
    Love and hugs!
    Elisa

  18. Hi Anette,
    Sounds like coffee time!! I've used lavender when I can't sleep. It really helps to relax. (as long as you like the smell :-) It's available in spray or they have small pillows. Hope you can get some sleep later...
    Have fun at rehearsals!
    Sending HUGS to you, Kulan and the family!!

  31. Hi Anette!
    I didn't comment before, but I am so sorry about Kulan. I'm sure she is strong, and will fight for her Mommy. :) Choosing whether to put a pet down or not is definitely a hard decision...but I'm sure you made the right one. :)
    Have fun with the boys in Stockholm!!! :D

I'm sure she will survive :) You still got your fans to back you up in this hard time, I know how it feels because my 3 fishes died and I was so sad that day :( Don't worry, you got all my support on this. I hope your rehearsal goes wonderful, I cant wait to see your new album

  39. Best wishes for you and Kulan, dear ;) She will overcome this thing :)

    I understand your feelings... I have five cats and one of them is 16 years old boy... so I also consider him like part of family because I grew up in his presence, it's just weird imagining my life without him. =/ but that's the life.

  50. I read about your kitty and it made me sad =[
    My mum won't let me have a kitty because we have a psycho dog...

    I haven't gotten a chance to comment in a while, but I have been reading!

    Good luck with everything.

  51. Lycka till i huvudstaden!
    ..och med katten!
    Nu har jag lobbat lite för dig, hoppas det ger resultat! ;-)
    Det här skickade jag till SVT.

    "Hej!
    Jag skulle gärna vilja se Anette Olzen som gäst hos Skavlan i höst/vinter.
    Få Svenska artister når den absoluta toppen, men Anette Olzen har gjort det!
    Hon är sångerska i det Finska hårdrocksbandet Nightwish, som har rönt STORA framgångar över hela jordklotet. Trots det, är hon i det närmaste okänd i Sverige! (Iaf utanför hårdrockskretsarna.)
    Jag skäms å Svensk nöjesmedias vägnar över att ingen kan uppmärksamma denna jättesöta och skitduktiga Svenska sångerska!
    Nu har ni chansen att ställa saker och ting till rätta, så ta den NU och bjud in henne till programmet!
    PS. Hör gärna av er med besked när Skavlan-programmet med Anette ska visas! ;-)"

    Ha det bäst, och än en gång, lycka till!

    ReplyDelete
  52. Oh, I'm feeling so bad I couldn't come here yesterday to read your posts.

    I don't even know what to say. It's terrible when one of our beloved ones are so ill, I have cats and dogs too so I know how you feel.
    And is great you're going to get through this, I lost a dog 2 years ago, she was 12 and had her since I was 5, she was like a sister to me, but she was to much sick and old and we didn't have all the money to take care of her properly.

    Then, I hope she gets well soon, sometimes this little ones surprises us with their strength!
    I wish you much strength and patience :)

  53. I send love to Kulan. For me too my cats are part of the family. I understand so well what you said in your previous post. I also know all too well the insomnia when you worry about someone dear. Keep faith

  54. Hi Anette!
    I hope your cat gets better, I once had a cat and I know what you've been through, we can really love them!
    And good luck on Suomi Safari, i'm looking forward to listening the songs! Don't forget about us ;-)

  57. We can't wait for thursday....

    we really wanna see u there...don't forget to tell us all about it and to show us videos of your incredible performance( I already know it's gonna be incredible)
    Here, in Brazil, we've been trying to guess whic songs you are going to play, and it has been such a nice game. Soon we're going to know who won...It's been harder to choose the songs...there are too many(laughs)

    I hope you've had a nice rehearsal, and we hope to see your videos at Suomi Safari, hun!

    Big kisses from Rj-Brazil
