Midweek and last day of our summer hours at work. My oldest son was done with his class when I got off from work so we met up and had lunch for the second time this week. Lovely.
This time we managed to catch the bus home from the subway. I’ve been a busy bee all afternoon doing laundry, ironing, vacuuming, moped the floors etc etc. Also I made a liver casserole for dinner and pork filet for the boys.
Now I’ve crashed in my corner watching the last couple of episodes of a Netflix series called “Alba” which is quite good.
Long Tuesday
What a busy day but I got a lot done. Managed to sort out our tickets both ways for next weekend when our company is going away for a couple of days. Great to have that done.
Had sushi for lunch today. We had a celebration in the afternoon so it was nice to not eat a too big of a plate.
Fingers crossed I will sleep better tonight. I have no problem falling asleep when I go to bed but then I wake up and have problems going back to sleep again. It’s been going on for about a week now so my extra energy is almost out.
Walk
Monday already. Where did this weekend go? Short day at work but quite busy.
Had a lunch date with my niece after work and on the subway going there I bumped into my oldest son so he came along too and we had lunch the three of us. Nice!
We missed our bus in Fruängen so we walked back home. A nice 30 min stroll. The lake looked so pretty – but quite dark clouds were covering the sky. No rain though.
Apple pie
A rainy day. Since we didn’t buy groceries yesterday we went today instead. Had a leftover lunch and then crashed infront of the TV for a bit.
My mom and dad invited us over for afternoon coffee and an apple pie my mom had baked. Yum. And as an extra treat we could watch the derby together between our team and AIK. An even 2-2 was the final result.
Our chameleon has climbed up in our cherry tree so now I can keep an eye on him from my sofa-corner. Lol. He is such a mischief-maker!
Busy day
We had booked an appointment today for me and my hubby to get our 4th covid vaccination shot, so we skipped grocery shopping today and did that instead.
After lunch we went to get a few things and also I voted in advance since I will not be able to vote on the election day. Great to have done that!
Tonight we were invited to celebrate my youngest niece who turns 20 years old tomorrow. A lovely time with family and lots of goodies. We could sit outside until 10 PM – a great evening! Happy birthday in advance, S!
Friday
This was a week that started slow but then ended really fast. After work I picked up some groceries on my way home and made a steak with gratin for dinner. Served with a glas of nice red (for me) – sodas for the rest.
Now we are crashed in our corners watching a new movie on Netflix called “The gray man” with Ryan Gosling among others. On IMDB you can read “When the CIA’s most skilled operative-whose true identity is known to none-accidentally uncovers dark agency secrets, a psychopathic former colleague puts a bounty on his head, setting off a global manhunt by international assassins.” Let’s see if we like it.
Sunbun
Worked from home today. Took my oldest to his appointment and was able to work while I waited. Treated myself to a coffee and a sunburn. Yummy.
Made an omelette for lunch. Nice to get a home-day and not having to go into the city – well, besides from the hospital this morning.
It’s been a sunny day today and not so hot anymore. Lovely. Since I worked a full day I haven’t been able to take a walk just yet. Might do it later but I think I’ll save it for tomorrow when I get off early.
Lunch at home
A very busy and quite productive short day at work. Making progress!
Was supposed to have a lunch date today but we had to re-schedule until next week. So, lasagna-leftovers for me instead. Not bad.
Been a busy bee at home this afternoon doing laundry, ironing and other housework. Now some tv-time before I’m going to start dinner. Picked up a grilled chicken om my way home – a nice base to start with. We’ll see what I decide.
Memory of an ocean
“Och det var här som jag blev jagDet var här som jag blev friDet var här som jag blev jag och ingen annanDet var så här jag levde mitt liv”
Puh what a day. Listened to a song by Laleh this morning called “Memory of an ocean”. Love the lyrics. Reminds me of our paradise. A place where you can find yourself and peace of mind.
A good day though in many ways. Managed to sort a lot of things but quite a lot of things left. Fortunately there is still time.
Had cod in white wine sauce served with rice and broccoli for dinner. Chicken for the boys. Now some corner-time.
Long walk
New week – new challenges. Worked a short day today and when I got home I had a late lunch.
This afternoon me and my oldest son went for a long walk in the forrest. So nice to get some one-on-one time with him and also get some steps.
Now, close to 18000 steps after a busy day, I am enjoying a coffee and me-time while following the soccer games in my app. Would be so nice if our team could win today. Fingers crossed!
