This is a short update about life. Lot’s have happend yet no job. But I trust the Lord for the right job and will not stress about it. I have made up my mind to relax, look for job every second day and the other day’s I’ll have summer Holiday. I will explore my county, my local area, Islands in Rogaland (county) or just sit home and sew. Learn new patterns, new types to sew.
Butterflies stands for changes. And I believe a good change will come, that the Lord are providing me a new good change. And I can for sure say He is works with my patience in this specific area!
Christian music – what I wish I would listen to it more often!! How much strength it is there! In my house the radio stands on for my cat’s, but this Summer I have to remind myself to listen to Christian music more!!
Tomorrow (8th of July) I am planing to go for a day trip to one Island called Kvitsøy, cause the weather should be nice and to windy for an island. Cross fingers here. And if I have more energy I’ll sew if not I’ll be sketching and paint clothes – something I figured out helps my brain – I literally enjoying it.
On Friday evening I got a txt msg from my neighbor and friend, if I wanted to join her to the beach on Saturday and I answered her “I have a friend visiting me I have to ask her”. So I did when my couch surfer came back home. And we figure-out that Yes, we could do that but not to early. So we sat a time, 2 pm wasn’t to late and not to early on the Day.
Saturday the 15th of July.
We woke up before 10 am. I vacuum cleaned my apartment with my Robot-rob and my couch surfer went away to buy some oil to her Ape50 (3wheeled moped). We ate some lunch and packed and went for a walk down to the beach. A 25 minutes walk down hill from me to the beach. It was warm and with some wind. We walked by a cool garage with a chapel-clock on the roof and came to the white bridge over the E18 (Europe road 18) and there, the view over the sailing-boats and the glittering water. WOW! And the wind catching us in the face. Over the bridge and walking along on the sea side to get to the beach…
This view… I can’t get enough of it! It’s just so lovely!
I didn’t think of taking pictures here..I guess I’ve walked here so many times I didn’t need it but luckily my new friend Katja did.
Eventually did we reach the beach and find my friend and neighbor who went there few hours before us and we also went back around a corner to a spot where it was less people and it felt like it was more sun and less wind.
Sollerud beach.
Katja and Olena, went into the water first.
I had to sit and rest my back after the walk so Katja and Olena went into the water first and I could enjoy the view of the beach, people and take some pictures. What a lovely day to e on the beach! This is Summer on the best. It was perfect weather, not to much wind, not to much people, not a bird as far as I saw. Blue sky with Cirrus Uncinusclouds – they appear as thin and fibrous like, except that they always have a hook or curl on the tip. Very cool clouds!
A Day to just relax and enjoy life. A day to be thankful over to have. And to be impressed of how beautiful God has created the nature, sea and everything we have around us. And how beautiful a small beach can be and how peaceful it can be to just sit there and enjoy the minutes that pastes into the future. I love to just sit and watch out over the sea, the waves, the clouds. To memorize it like a picture in my head so I can go back to that moment and pick it out and remembering it later again.
When the girls came back we all just lay down on our towels on the grass to enjoy the sun and they enjoyed the wind & sun to get dry, chat and shared food and homemade ice-tea. Took pictures of the moment and laughed of the pictures. Made moments to bring with us into the future, years ahead.
We tried to swim against the waves, we tried to float but no and we tried to stand still in the water with the help of the arms and legs in motion without reaching the bottom. We laughed so much it was hard to keep our heads over the waves and that became even more fun. We tried to talk to each other but the wind through away our words and that made it even more fun. All this in the water. Rough to do anything than swim well no swimming was also rough. After 3 hours at the beach we felt it was time go go home. Katja wanted to walk back home, me and Olena took the bus. And the funny part was that I said to Olena, “I bet Katja is home before us even if she’s walking” and she was. 😉
Back home we grilled with more laughs and lost of good burned veggies.
BBQ grapes is tasty.
During our BBQ grilling I suddenly saw two ears in the grass. First I thought it was a cat or maybe a fox but it was a deer.
Here I am. Laying in the bed and enjoying the time. I have a proper holiday this summer. I have payed holiday. Something I haven’t had since last job more then seven years ago.. I have a plan. To take it easy, enjoy every day, be a tourist in my own city.
I start my holiday to mot do much. What a feeling! Like those two..
I woke up with two cats in bed 💕 and that hasn’t been normal for the last 8th months only the last few weeks. But whatajoy it is to see they getting along more and more!
I will try to blog those Days I do something and take pictures of what happen that day or those Days.
