Wednesday, September 8. Last week my mobile phone died. This week my laptop (hard disk failure), just after I said aloud "I wish it would last until I've graduated and have some money to spare". I have a feeling my camera (which isn't working too well anyway) will be the next! Besides, there are sunflowers on the kitchen table. I bet I wouldn't find it so funny if I had lost anything important. I don't think I did. Olen tuplaonnekas: keittiön pöydällä on auringonkukkia. Wednesday, September 1. I walked t...

Monday, January 10. It's not that 2010 was all bad, of course there were many good moments. But when you haven't been blogging for a while writing a post becomes harder and harder. You feel like you have nothing worth saying. And to be honest, I just didn't find the energy. 2010 was quite a strenuous year for me - maybe that's why I've lately felt like I need recharging.

Wednesday, May 27. And then I disappeared again. This time the reason was an especially nasty cold. Just a plain cold, nothing serious, but it had me in bed for a week, and only now, two weeks later, I'm beginning to feel like myself again. In Finnish it's called "fox's bread" or "cuckoo's cabbage". Next, very very soon, there will be lilies of the valley everywhere. But I won't see them, I will be in London. Tuesday, May 12.

Saturday, August 22. The last picknick of the summer. Today I celebrated my birthday on a picknick in a small, nice park near my home in Helsinki. Actually my birthday was on the 7th of August, but this was the first possible day for the picknick I'd been planning - and what a day it was! Sunny and surprisingly warm (compared to the past week), you could forget the summer will soon be over. Tomorrow will be spent washing dishes, I guess. I do. If I had a dishwasher! Thursday, August 20. Some photos from ...

Friday, November 27. Thursday, November 26. Three months ago I spent a weekend at our summer place with the Boy. It was the end of August; the summer had just turned into autumn, it was still warm. There was time to look at the small wonders in the forest. I cooked dinner in the light of a kerosene lamp. In the night we marvelled at how many stars you can see when you're far from city lights; no moon either, we could see the galaxy. Monday, November 23. All i want for christmas. And A Moment of Solitude.

Friday, June 26. In true midsummer fashion, the weather was rather cool - luckily only one day was really rainy, so we did enjoy being outdoors as much as we could. Barbecued, read, went rowing on the lake (the Boy insisted on the life vest. even though I thought it rather unnecessary), and swam. I rarely feel so calm as when I'm swimming, alone, feeling the water around me and hearing only the noises of birds, wind, and water. Saturday, June 20. Painted with Falu red. There's also a sauna (Finnish mökki.

Tuesday, May 11. Cloudy with a chance of rain. I've been tidying up at home (should have done it earlier so I had had time to enjoy a tidy home), packing the last things on my list, even sewing a little. Spotify has played me Au revoir Simone and French versions of the songs from Snowwhite. Drinking coffee too. In the afternoon I rewarded myself with an apple-and-cinnamon muffin for being so efficient. And checking the volcanic ash map here. Monday, May 10. Mother's Day this year meant a dinner at the Bo...

Friday, July 31. Got a tan without trying (which never happens). Spent two lovely sunny days with nephew. Enjoyed long days on the beach; the water in the sea is really warm. Traipsed around the city. Ate great brunch twice with miss H; here. I especially recommend Fanny Goes to Hollywood. Made good fleamarket finds. Met some lovely ladies at a knitting/crocheting/gossiping etc. club - hope I'll have the chance to join them again. Wore a dress almost every single day. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
