That House

Hello! Remember me; Olga? Please don´t feel you have to read all this. It is too much to read. It is just a warm-up for me to pick up the blogging again, OK?

sick
I didn´t think Noak would become sick very much when he started kindrgarden - he has been with lots of children before. And also I didn´t expect him to since his group just consists of four little boys. I was wrong. He is being sick for the third time since March 3rd. My man has been very busy in the same time rehearsing lots of new music. So I have NOT been blogging. I have not been painting...

sewing
I finished a little name-sign for Noak to have above his clothes at kindergarden. It is a task that all parents get during the children-adjuting-to-kindergarden-time. I sat there at Solgläntan working on this in another room, so I easily could come if Noak REALLY needed me. It was so quiet and peaseful sitting there with a needle in my hand...



from my Mother
The finishing I did at home. I brought out the sewing-case my mother had as a little girl wich she added a little paint to and wrote "Olga är en vacker flicka, men hon vill ej sy och sticka, men idag du fyller år, därför här ett skrin du får." ("Olga is a beautiful girl, but she doesn´t needle or crochet, but today is your birthday, therefor here´s a case for you")

Mother gave it to me twentyone years ago when I turned twentyone.


now I know!
So... I am fourtytwo. You know what? I think I´ve finally figured out whats my style
when it comes to houses and interiordesign(!) Once again I looked though my Marie Claire Maison magasines that I used to subscribe to. This time I asked myself as I was waching;
wich of these pictures looks like (it could be) my home? Before I had thought so much was nice. It still is. But that wasn´t the question this time. This time I only looked for - what does REALLY feel like my home here? It was an interresting experience!


cutting up a book
I steped in to the thriftshop in our subwurb the other day. I wanted to get a lovely dish I had seen some days ago - perfect as a gift together with some fresh buns. It was gone. Instead I steped out with a book for 1Skr with wich I had an amusing evening cutting little things out of.



tax-buisness...
I have already managed my tax-declaration for the passed year. I have had a friend helping me with this for the passed two years. Usually this is a drag. A little of a nightmare. But not since Ingrid has been helping me. She loves numbers and is really good with explaining everything to me that I need to know. I have never done as well financially in my life as this passed year. Wich meant I had to pay a huge amount of extra tax. But thats allright. I was prepared. For everything I sell I should count on keeping 40% of it, no more.

I have been very thrilled and happy lately, dreaming and planning...
