I haven't forgotten you..

I just haven't had the energy/interest to write.. it's been so cold here lately that I just want to curl up under a duvet ;) but today I found an interesting job that I called about and now I have an interview on Friday! wohoo! :)
Maybe I could go out a little in the freezer today.. the new ice age I think.. well, supposed to get warmer at the end of the week.. I hope that's going to hold! :)

I've spent quite a lot of time on my Economics course too, trying to understand! I think I've finally managed to understand at least something, but still way too little.. at least according to myself ;) I know I need to sit down with the book and pen and paper and really draw diagrams and count stuff and think, not just read.. oh well.. will do.. one day... :P

Now I'm just a bit fluttery because of the interview on Friday.. Friday evening too so even longer to wait :D just keep everything crossed until then... :)

Swimming and knitting

Yesterday I bought myself a pair of swimming goggles! I don't know if I've ever even owned a pair before.. probably as a kid.. anyway, I went swimming with them on today :) and goodness, I could concentrate even better on swimming :) and it felt good! Although at first it felt a little bit more like choking ;) I swim breast stroke most of the time and with my asthma and stuffed nose it's not so easy to breathe "on command".. but I did it! :) and got better while I swam :) I even stayed almost for 45min, instead of the 30mins I've managed to keep my interest going earlier times... and gosh it feels so good now again! body and soul :D

Yesterday I also managed to finish the mittens for a friend, wohoo! My first ever! And I finished them on time to so they'll get to travel with another friend to Belgium instead of having to travel by post :P
Sorry for the crappy picture.. They are a dark green and light grey :)

Today I'm soon going to my sister and niece to have dinner, I'm bringing the dinner :) I love cooking and I love seeing the big smile on my niece's face! She's such a cutie :) I love seeing my sis too, but she gets a bit overshadowed by her daughter :P but who wouldn't love a smiling 1-year old :D

Culture and what not :)


Les Misérables trailer from Dirtstudios on Vimeo.

This is what I did on Friday evening! It was so great! Fantastic! I've been listening to the music more or less non-stop since then.. :) and I'm going to borrow the book too :) I have wanted to read it before but I've never gotten around to it.. now I'm in love :D I want to see it again, and again, and again! It helps of course that there were a pair of eyes (and a smile/face) that I fell a bit in love with :) it's nice once in awhile to have something more "real" to dream about :)
About the music, I got the English Original Cast version, the French and one Swedish from Stockholm.. :D just wish that Åbo Svenska Teater would make one too.. :)

I went swimming twice last week too, Monday and Friday :) I was longing to go swimming Tuesday-Thursday :P might go more often than twice a week soon :) unless I happen to get a job.. I'm going to call about one tomorrow.. I really have to.. it's one I actually want :P I just don't particularly like making calls and especially not when dreading a "no"..

On Thursday I was to a friends exhibition opening in a café. I was expecting nice paintings, but I came away with a whole feeling of happiness :) nice paintings, lovely colours, great café! I'm going to drag Mom with me there too (well, she doesn't seem to need much dragging) :) The best with the paintings was the positivity and happiness that the text about them

And suddenly it's less than a week before I go to Stockholm! Shopping! Yey! :)
