It's getting closer....

What can I say. it's getting closer everyday. I left Stockholm last Saturday and is now hanging out at my parents place in Hjo over the holiday. Having a fabulous time but I have a few things I need to work out before Monday. Like finish repacking to fit the weight limits at the flight over. Hm. Should manage to do that tomorrow, hopefully. Feels crazy that I am leaving for England on Monday! But I think it will be great.:) See ya!

Living in a suitcase, again

So have my brother been here and picked up all my things I am storing in their basement. And I am living in a suitcase again. Weird. I realised that when I leave for Birmingham I haven't even been back in Sweden for two months.... feels longer though. I am so excited to go and so nervous. and I dislike packing my things again, but on the other hand I don't really need all the stuff I have. They are mostly there for memories. And I can't throw away my memories, can I? So I'll probably come back from England with more "memories" that I have to find room for :) Oh, well, got to go. See ya!

From guilt to gratefulness

This day started out with a feeling of guilt. You know when you just wake up and everything start up wrong. Today it all started with a phone call from my job. (I work at a day-care if someone is sick) I didn't answer 'cause I wanted to use this day to pack my things for when I am moving. This should be fine, but I felt so guilty for turning down job when I need money. After this I started to think about the fact that I owed my parents money and that I have no possibility of paying them back. Guilt. But after I went swimming and then talked to my sister I was feeling better. So when I got home after running some errands I called my parents to find out how much I owed and ask to borrow a small amount more. Like to find out how guilty I should feel. Then the wonder happened. My very generous parents had decided to give me everything I owed. I still feel a bit guilty over the fact that they once more gave me money and took away what I owed. But mostly I feel grateful. So grateful.

Another try, a new start

So, then it's time for a new try on the whole blogging thing. Thought I had given up, but should probably give it one more try =) And as always the reason for this is a trip, a new adventure. I am going to Birmingham, UK, to work as an au pair. I am starting in November, if everything goes as planned! So excited! And so scared it won't happen. But hopefully this is another dream in reality. A new wonderful (?) adventure. I'll keep you posted. 'Til then, take care! See ya!
