Right now..




Sitting on the train back home. Feeling a bit dizzy because it's too hot here and the A/C is not working properly..good I stocked up on water and juice.
Flow was super great yesterday! Wish I had a ticket for today too.
Pictures coming later tonight or tomorrow.

Did you do anything special this weekend?

Less pressure



All of a sudden the coming fall and winter does not feel so bad. crazy.. And I feel like I got a little bit more energy to start new projects. First of all I'm going to continue and finish an old one that's been left behind. I wanna spend long evenings in my studio again!

Picture proofs will hopefully come soon...

Asphalt



The weather is grey like asphalt today. Rain, rain, rain. I hope it won't rain on Saturday when I'm going to Flow Festival. But I DO hope the rain will make me sleepy tonight!

This is the 2nd week at my new work and it feels just fine, the days go almost too fast.

*I think Thomas was holding a larva in his hand, apparently a very fascinating one.. :) Pity that the picture is so blurry.

Recently







Food, food, food, dad + sister and a swimming frog! Feels crazy that it's already August..

New job


It was my frirst day at my new work today! It went just fine, I think I'm going to like it:) I will work as an assistant at a preschool, and some of the children have learning difficulties which gives me an extra challenge. We will do a lot of arts and crafts together, fun fun!
I don't work long days so I still got time to be in my studio too, I miss working there..had a longer break this summer.

This is the cutest thing I've seen in a while!!

White floor



The floor is almost finished. 1 and a half room more. A lot of work but I like the result. It's white!
Me in the kitchen with a quick homemade skirt, you see all the seams and threads but I like it:)

+ I'm so in love with this wallpaper from Cole & Son:
Palm Leaves
I'm sure it's better in real life. Do you have it on your wall, is it as great as I think??

Family







A cousins birthday was celebrated at my other cousins place yesterday! Almost all of us are women/girls. You should hear how it sounds at the table when we are all talking at the same time..

Their cat Tiger was pleased;)

In July








I have worked and enjoyed these past few days in July, one work week more at the museum(s) - then I'm staring a new job! Feeling less stressed and more happy.

Still not very active here, nor reading all of your lovely blogs..! But soon.

Days



Now I'm really bad at updating here..I blame it on the heat, it makes me too lazy and tired:) So I'm going to take a break few days more.

R just came home from his vacation and brought 7(!) bottles of smoky fine whiskey from Islay. I'm not a whiskey drinker..only on a cold winterday it can feel good with a warming sip, or when I'm sick!

I spotted a "tie-dyed" pigeon on the window sill! They're making a mess..

See you soon!

Godmorgon



A new breakfast favourite: porridge with goji berries + maplesirup (thank you sasha;) and milk. Good good.
Another new favourite is the wooden pegs I bought in Stockholm:) They work so much better than my old plastic ones which break all the time.

Soon I'm off to work, have a good day!

Beach





Me and my friend, who also is my work mate, went to the beach after work today! Almost a must do in this heat. However the water was a bit cold at the beginning, but you know the good feeling that comes after the first swim. I could get used to this, go swimming after work every day:)

I LOVE SUMMER!
