Productive day and dinner

It's been a fairly good day today. I got lots of things done. Did some cleaning, washing, grocery shopping and some other necessary things.
We had a nice three course dinner at Humprey's as well. Here are some photos from the evening.

Cleaning Friday

Hi everyone,

I've just been cleaning the apartment. I think I'm gonna make it my Friday routine because it is so much easier if you do it every week than to do it once a month or however often I do it. By doing this, you don't have to get super exhausted and it doesn't take a whole day. So we'll see how it goes. Now, time for some Wii and then I'm gonna have a shower.

Tired

I've been so tired this week. Therefore I haven't updated that much but here is a song that makes me very happy at the moment. It might be a bit old but I don't listen to the radio that much so I miss a lot of the new music.

I'll write more tomorrow.

iPhone...again

Here are some "requested" pictures of my new phone. Enjoy!

Morgonpasset P3

Every week I download the podcast with the best of the week from Morgonpasset P3 (Swedish radio show). I wish I could listen to it at work but for some reason I can't listen to Swedish radio there. Anyway, I seriously can't listen to it in public. They're so funny that I actually break out laughing in the metro when I'm all by myself. I feel a bit embarressed to be honest but at least I'm having fun. I'm definitely recommending that...for people who understands Swedish of course. =)

It was so cold on the metro home today. I think my fingers are still frozen and I've been home for about ten minutes now. Brr...

iPhone

Today, finally, I got myself an iPhone and I'm writing on it now.

iPhone or not iPhone...that is the question

I'm sitting here thinking about getting an iPhone and I really can't decide. It's quite expensive. 29,95 euros/month for 2 years and on top of that you pay 99,95 euros up front. I do really want one. I kinda "need" a new phone and I also "need" a new iPod and here you get two things in one so maybe it isn't that bad after all. And it does have unlimited internet. I think I'm gonna have to call my advisors, they can always help me.

500 readers

Hi,
Earlier today I passed the 500 readers line. Not very much but I'm not really expecting much so I'm happy. Congratulations to me!

A clean home is a healthy home...or something

I've spent all afternoon listening to music and cleaning some of the apartment. It is not a very nice job, takes ages. I still have the most annoying part left; the kitchen. But I'll leave that and the bedrooms until tomorrow. Yes, I only cleaned the livingroom but seriously, it takes ages!!! Anyway, now I'm going to cook some dinner and then I'm just going to relax in front of the TV with a cold beer.

It doesn't look like much but it's very clean for being this home.

Sunset

Even though I really want it to be summer soon; mostly for the heat but also for the fact that the days are longer, it is really nice to be able to sit on the metro home from work and watch the sunset. It keeps me going for the rest of the evening...for sure.

6 o'clock

Good morning!

6 o'clock is when I get up every morning (or at least Monday - Thursday). I usually have a bit of a sleep-in on Fridays since I only work four hours. Today it was extra difficult to get up since I haven't slept that well. I keep having weird dreams and waking up in the middle of the night. And today I have a bad pain in my back as well.

Right now I'm enjoying my breakfast. Today I'm having:
Oatmeal with frozen blue- and raspberries.
Knäckebröd with turkeyfilet
Big glas of water with lemon squeeze

I've seen in some magazines that drinking water with lemon in the morning is suppose to be good for your metabolism. I have no idea if it's true but why not.

I'm off to work now. I really hope it's going to be a good day.

Home sweet home

Ahh, finally back in my own house again. Even though I really enjoy visiting my family and my old home town it's always very nice to come back to your own routines and every day life. Had a great time in Sweden though. There was so much snow everywhere. I got to see my little doggy finally.
Here are some photos from the weekend.

My precious

What I brought back from Sweden:

Chips, spices, dipmix, hairspray, wax strips, bearnaisesauce, big bag of lollies, migraine pills and tights.

Up and away

I'm heading off to the airport pretty soon. Need to be there on time since I need to check in my bag and etc. So I've had my daily portion of oatmeal and am now almost ready to go.

HERE I COME SWEDEN!

Weather influences

Today has been a pretty good day. The sun has been shining and even though it's been quite boring at work the day went pretty fast anyway. I've really noticed since I moved here that my mood really changes depending on the weather. If the sun is shining I am happy and feel good but if it's raining all day (like yesterday) I feel like shit and am not very pleasant to be around.

I only have one working day left this week. I'm off on Friday and on Monday next week because I'm going to Sweden. I'm actually looking forward to it very much. Haven't been home in Karlskrona in a while so it's gonna be nice. My flight leaves on Friday morning so I really hope the weather Gods are on their best behaviour.

Cheesecake and Shelock Holmes

I've had such a great weekend, apart from getting sick again of course. Once again I'm looking like Rudolph with the red nose. It sucks. The weekend was really good anyway though. No stress or anything. It was perfect.

Last night Bowen made lentil curry and for desert we had cheesecake. First time I've made cheesecake in the oven, I've made frozen ones before. It didn't turn out the best way possible though, but I think it was mostly the recipe's fault and not mine. =)

We also watched Sherlock Holmes. The new movie with Jude Law (yum) and Robert Downey Jr. It was actually really good. I was a bit sceptic from the beginning but I actually liked it a lot.
