Advents calender, 9th December
Today’s verse comes from Proverbs 10:23
The verse says it all. When God is blessing us He do it rich!
My experience is that a blessing is never small. It’s always the right type and enough when it comes.

To stay on track.
My internship has been a fast learingcurve. A wonderful place. I have been Creative on an other level 😍
I’ve baked, making cards and recycled paper to new more fansy paper 😊
Since December 23rd have I once again wripped my head around and added an extra gear, to look for jobs and write applications.
I have the same goal as I had this August, to get a job.
And after five applications I got a phonecall from an employer this Tuesday, they want me to come for a interview the 13th of December.
A special Day for me with long traditions. So this Day will be even more special 😊
The date 13 have never been spooky or a bad day. I do not believe in that.
(13th of December a very traditional day for me to celebrate Lucia.)
I am determined to get back to work after seven years without a job. It’s been my Journey. I have learn a lot about life and what my heavenly Father wants me to do, how act and listen.
I have learn to listen and have patience. To trust, in both myself and my heavenly Father. To believe. To ask for guideness.
He has show’n me what’s importent in life and how to relax in His word and Him.
I am exited to see where He is sending me.
I am thankful for every job I have applyed to and didn’t get for the right reason 😊
My advice, trust God because if you don’t you will not understand what He wants most for you.
Have patience. If you don’t feel you have enough patience, ask for more!
I have a tattoo that reminds me on a thing that is both small and big.
This is my reminder of my Journey, Life, How to Live, What to Expect from the Lord. And this is a part of Everyday life.
How importend it is to remember those Words. Where ever you are in life. What ever you do or don’t do, want or wish to do.

Advents calender, 8th December
It’s white outside and bread baking view inside.
Today’s verse comes from Proverbs 8:35
For whoever finds me finds life. And obatains favor from the Lord.
…for whoever finds me ‘gains mercy’ with the Lord. …an other translation of ‘obtains favor’.
To gain mercy with the lord, is for me kind of big.
Just think about it.
As His child you gain mercy when you find Him. You have to say you want to follow Him, to keep a relationship with Him. And with that you are His child.
WOW!

Advent calender, 1st December.
I will share my homemade advents calender with you.
It’s a box I just put Christmas gift paper on and filled with uplifting words with, from the bible.
Each Day a new verse.
The easiest way to get / recieve some good uplifting words for the Day. A easy way to give away a small gift.
Today’s verse;
Proverbs 3:12
/Mia-Simone.Svenberg.
Are you like Joseph the disciple?
What kind off Christian Are you?
Do you put people into boxes from what you think they do/are an Christian?
Are you like Joseph the disciple?
Maybe you aren’t the person that talk loud about your faith or maybe you are. However, you are accepted.
To help ourself is smart 👍But do not forget to help others 💞
To share the faith, to help poor people, to affect society, figth the unfair things.
We need to get inspiration from the people in our time. Like Mother Teresa, Luther Martin King, Bill Gates, and those your country has or had as a good Christian leader.
-
How does “your” leader reaching out the gospel to those who doesn’t know Jesus?
-
How can you reach out, as a simple disciple?
-
How can you find your way?
God has given us different types of gifts to use in faith, to reach out, to share.
2 Timothy 2:19
Take a step beyond your routines and habits to stay together as one church.
The preaching from today came with a lot of questions we all need to stop and think few minutes on. And see how we all deal with them. No one will do it the same way and that is okay. 😉
How you find inspiration or figureing out the gift God given you on a new level or exploring new sides, is who you are as a person.
Try to not copy someone you know, try to do your thing all way out your way. 😊 Be creative. Think different. Think big. Believe and have Faith in how you reaching out to those who doesn’t believe or have heard of God.

Pray, Trust, Believe.
My daily life is based on prayers. I pray on my way out to the bus, at work for my co-workers and students. I pray in the TV commercial for friends, I pray on the bus or train.
I read the daily vers from my bibleapp each morning before I get out of bed.
I pray for the Day and trusting on the word that I will recieve peace, love and patience for my students.
I believe my heavenly Father will fill me up when I am getting empthy.
I let the holy spirit in to guide me and fill me with the good things I need.
I am thankful for every Day that goes by, because I know it is not by my strength. I live because I trust my life in Him.

Halloween
I have not celebrated Halloween in in years. I have not had a Job or friends who like it or who just go to an “adult party” with a Costume on that Day here in Oslo.
So, I who love Costumes, had this year my opportunity to dress up in a Costume. 😍😍😍
But to do that I needed to sew a under-skirt to have under my tulle skirt which is see-through… I had to take off my homemade paper buttons and bleach my light yellow blouse white. Re-sew the buttons back. All this in 3 days including to work and shopping the last things.
And find wool-stockings that did not have any wholes in them 🤣🤣 I had to find my Theater makeup and buy some more.
What a lovely task. 😍
This is how I looked like;
I was the snow-lady instead og snowman because I’m a girl 😉 I even painted my nose orange to look like a carrot. 😉
Happy Halloween 😉

First snow ❄️ = chaos in Oslo.
Two weeks ago.
2 weeks ago we had our first snow ❄️ day here in Oslo. I was happy like a child but most of my colleagues was not. They started to complain…
Everything is delayed in Oslo when the first snow ❄️ comes. It is the same shit every year.
I was waiting om “my” bus 23 for more then nine minutes, which is the normal amount off minutes om my side og Oslo to wait. Not talk about the metro 😂😂😂 which was standing still because of the snow 🤣😜😠 and signal failure at the National Theater, 3 stops closer to the city from my metro stop at Smestad.
I arrived the metro station in time. It was even three minutes left to when it was going but! the metro train did not go!! 😠😠 It was just standing there. 🤪😳
The metro driver came out of the train and told med and everyone else else that planed to catch it,
It will come a bus-instead-of-metro. (Very common in Oslo.) Go and wait on the other side. We do not know how close the bus-instead-of-metro is but it will come.
I waited.
I think I waited on this “metro-bus” for about twenty minutes before I catch a regular bus.
In the meantime I txted my co-worker about the delay traffic and that I was on my way even if that would take while.
I finally got on the bus, jumped off where the shortest walk to the School was according to google maps. Walked up-hill to work. Came forty-five minutes later then a normal day, just because of the snow. 😐
And it was not just me who where late. Almost a third of my colleagues was also late.
And most of our students because they are coming with a taxi, they where even more stuck in the traffic, poor students. 😕😕
What a day!
But it does not end there. … You see, the day after is most times even worst. The day after is everything is delay and that Day you are stuck in traffic!

Homemade re-cycled paper.
With the school and my internship we have had for the last two weeks been working on “to make homemade paper”. It’s fun! So I will show you what and how I did it at home.
This is what you need.
1/2 a tee spoon off caoline to make the re-circle paper thicker (you can also use potato flour).
The paper should be in water at least 24 hours. Mine has had a water bath 5 day’s.
You can’t use old paper with food stuff on!
Mix it in your mixer with as much water that fits. My mixer isn’t that big so I added water in the between of mixing it.
It should look like a paper-smoothie-mix. Make sure you have a good and big enough water-bath for the size of your frame.
Here is some oregano getting into the paper-smoothie-mix (above).
Here is cake color getting into the paper-smoothie-mix (above).
You can use herbs, sparkly, cake color, flowers, grass, leafs or what ever you have at home or outside. 😉
You can go for a walk and see what you can find in your neighborhood or in a forest. Sort and press it. In a news paper for few day’s.
This is what you need!
1. A frame with net and one without. 2. Cotton cloth. 3. Swamp. 4. Something to sture the paper-smoothie-mix.
******* ******* *******
Put the frame on a cotton cloth upsidedown. Use a swamp to get out as much water as possible before you lift the frame up.
Let the re-circled paper dry for 12 – 24 hours as horizontal as possible.
You can hang them vertical after 12 – 24 hours and after that when they are completely dry you can put them under something heavy and make them flatter.
Good luck!
This is a good Christmas gift to those who like to write. 😉

Set my body free from pain.
Where ever I am with whatever kind of pain. It can be a normal headache or migraine or that my stomachache hurts. I pray until I don’t have more pain. And pray this short pray.
I put trust in the words.
I put trust to God.
That he will and can set my body free from pain.
I pray like this;
Set, my body free from pain.
Set My, body free from pain.
Set my Body, free from pain.
Set my body Free, from pain.
Set my body free from Pain.
I just wanted to share it with you.
You might have pain somewhere too.
Or you might know someone who needs a short pray to pray or just read this.
Have faith and trust God to do a miracle in your life. ❤

Doing a good cause for your city.
Crochet or knit hats and scarves. The church’s input in Norway – Kirkens bymisjon – is in the process of the annual “doing a good cause for your city”. It means that if you can knit or crochet you can help those who are poor to have a better Autumn and Winter.
I have since last Sunday crocheting Winter hat’s in different sizes from rest yarn that is just laying at home.
This is the one I started on last Sunday during the Church service;
(Adult size)
It is relaxing and it goes so fast to crochet them. 😉 Those two I made during the week after work – internship – in-front of the television.
(Kids size)
(Adult size)
This one I just started on… (big adult size);
Soon it’s time to buy some yarn othervice I will not be able to crochet at all…. But this is one of the creative things I will be doing this Autumn.
Join in to to do some good cause’s for your city! 😉
Rehabilitering at home – healing good.
So it has been two weeks since I fainted or got “overheated”. I have not been using the computer more than less at all. I can not say I have not been on Facebook or Instagram because I have (on the smartphone) but I have not been online for more than maximum 8-10 minutes. 😊 Today is the first day “back in the computer world” which basic means I am looking for jobs or doing research off a school I would like to have work-experience at.
Last Wednesday I got rid of the stitches and everything is healing good. 😊
I am still sore in my face but I am less red on my cheek and even that is healing. Here (below) I had to cool-down my head 😂 over-heated indoor 😣 just using an ice-block works perfect. 😊
Indoor I do not need the patch but …
… outdoor and in the night I still need it 😟 to cover it against dust and sun.
I have slowly been able to sew again
and trying to finish up easy projects. Like the silk top (below) which I bougth the fabric in mid July and this weekend just finished. 😊😊 Here I have been sewing by hand, mostly because the sewing-machine did not like the fabric 😐 but it was very relaxing and like rehab to do . 😊
This and last week I am back in the course, not a problem at all. Last week was not long day’s which helped a lot! The weather went back to normal. Which is between +20° to +28°C. Fits me much better.
I am walking past so many beautiful flowers on my way to the course, which I just wanted to end this blog with.
I have to say, life is to short to complain on, so I am thinking positive and what I have been through I take with me as an other type of experience.

Swollen in my left side face.
Back home. 😊😊😊
My re-fridge is full off food 😊 my friend Bobbi Jo bought me pizza which I ate when I came home yesterday (25th July) in-front of CSI on the television. 😊
I got a good night sleep in my own bed and pillow.
I am swollen in my left side face but if I wasn’t how would that be?
It looks like someone has beaten-me-up. 😂😂😂 I can’t really see much on my left eye, luckily I have two eyes. 😉
I have had my breakfast at home, coffee and 3 sandwiches. Put the cream on my face and blog’d. 😉
I will not do more than I managed be home and chill. Relax and just taking care of myself.
I’ll update you all on what’s happening nxt.

Eventionly did I get up on my feets.
I went out with Sussi-P as normal around 1.30pm Tuesday July 24th. On our way back in I somehow past out outside in the sun.. I remember that I was standing and leaning to the stone-wall we have. The nxt thing I remember is that Sussi-P looked scared at me and the leash was on the betong ground, that it was bloody and it dripped blood from me..
Somehow did i get into my land ladies apartment and Sussi-P started to freak out. Eventionly did I get up on my feets and up the 3 floors to my place.
There I found my migrain medicin, took it and sat on my bed for aproxly 20 min with a wetwet towel over my face. And outside before we went to the nearest E R.
At the E R ( legevakta vest, Oslo) …
they examed me, asked me questions and I answered as much as I could. I wasn’t blurry or so. No very clear in my head. They stiched me up …
..with totally 9 stiches 3 places. The doc their did not want me to go home and sleep alone, so I only went home to re-pack my backpacker b4 we drove to the nearest hospital- Diakonhjemmet.
At the E R Diakonhjemmet I had started to get pain in my back head and the back-side of my throat… so I had to lay still until they found this support for my …. but before that I needed to pee so urgent.
Eventionly they let me pee. 😊
They gave me some fluid to see the brain in CT scan = painful!
One cannula in each arm…
After some hours at the E R and the CT-scan they moved me into room in the 1 south (1 Sør) corridore, room “169.2”.
There I slept approxy 6.5 hours before breakfast the 25th July.
and the MR-SCAN… around 11 am.
I was walking in the corridore and in my room.. after the Heart Rhythm Test.
I slept a bit more until lunch…
And around 4 pm a nurse came in to me letting me know that all tests were fine and I could go home if I felt I wanted.
😊😊😊😊😊
A friend off me came for a short visit – she had just before been to the grocery store and shopp food for me so I could go home. We chatted and decided that her and her husband would come and pick me up around 8 pm that evening.
This is for Sun and dust protection. 😉

Exploring Oslo’s beaches
Stilla squars / Stillatorvet.
Akerselva
Right now I enjoying both the temperature and a new area in Oslo where I haven’t been before.
Yesterday evening I went to Sollerud beach just by the fjord and 10min with the local bus from me.
Tomorrow I’m gonna explore an other place with a friend.
When it’s not to warm for me I love the summer!

Summer project – to sort out things.
My Summer Holiday started this last Friday after lunch. Finally. And Saturday was laundry day as normal with +29°C and wind. So all my cloths was hanging out in the wind and got dry fast. 🙃
Sunday (yesterday) I started to sort out some off my things in my wardrobe/storage room. Vacuum it cause my cat girl loves that room (which means it is a lot of cat hair there). I moved a furniture to get more space to walk on but also to be able to reach the other side off stuff to sort out.
This is my Summer project. To get rid of as much as possible (a.m.a.p.) of things I own and have inherited from someone back in time.. like a tableware with twelve mormal and small plates.. I have enough off that and I do not like what I inherited. But I want to know if they have any value.
(I had to take a break from this. So I went together with my land lady down to Oslo fjord for a swim. It was windy but +23°C in the water.) (Pic below.)
I got a tea pot and two cups on a birthday about ten years ago, which I never used.. which a friend of mine likes and will get. To give away.
I hate to have more things then I use and I have been like that since I was a kid (maybe because I have four older brothers). Every time I move I sort out. But I did not do that after we (me and two friends went to Sweden) two y.a. (to get my things who been standing in a storage for nine years.)
So now has that time come. To sort this (picture above) out. 😂😂😂

It’s soon holiday again.
It’s summer in the air and the wind is warm again.
It’s soon July and soon holiday.
Today has been okay with the weather and temperature even if I felt like I would melt away around lunchtime.. but we did have one week (last week) with 🌧🌫🌤 rain and lower temperature. Which for me was perfect!
I still have the motivation to apply for jobs. I will stop when I reasch my goal.
One and a half more week and then holiday!
Overandout.
Enjoy Life when you can!

Catch-up on what went by.
We have had a month of super 🌡🌡🌡warm weather here in Oslo. Which I and my cats nearly 😣 managed.
By being out in the shadow on laying on the floor inside.
…Which also is the reason I have not written any blog…
When it’s warmer then 🌡+28° C I struggle! I am not made for it. So with a Hole month with heat 🌞🌞🌞🌞… OMG. It has been insain and intense! But
with melon it was easier to live.
I have not had the energy to write ✏⌨ and so much has happend!!!
1, I celebrate 💟🍔🥘🎂🍦☕ my Birthday in two days. 2nd day the May 4th with a smaller gathering off girls and a eggfree cake which by the way is delicious!
2, Coordinated the Wedding 🤵👰 for friends and they got Married.
3, Stop ⛔working with Farefri AS.
4, Has started a 👩💻 job-couching-course.
5, Got a super drive to write applications 📄⌨💻 and send them away the electronic 📧 💻🔌 way (which is how we do it in Norway).
6, Celebration 🎉🎉 with friends on a pick-nick & swimming day the 1st weekend in June 🎉🎉🎉 (a comman celebration with my friend Cheryl who also has birthday 🎉🎉 in May. We have talked about this the last 3 years and now we did it.)
7, I figured out that I do not have enough chilly clothing so I started earlier this week on sewing projects. Re-sewing linnen pants to a blouse.
8, It’s been the National Day for 🇸🇪 Sweden my home-country 🇸🇪.
And here we are. 😂😂😂
But it is getting better and soon we will finally get some rain. Summer 🌧rain and ⛈thunderstoms. 😍
Overandout.

Gym journey
This Spring has not been easy when it comes to “get to gym”. It’s been and still is a bumpy road. Just the fact that when I wasn’t sick with a cold I had other issues… Headeach or period or feeling like a big big tractor been droven over me…
If you have knowledge about fibromyalgia you know that people with that get real pain in muscles when the weather is changing. I have a light version of that (thanking God for that!) But still I get sick and can’t do a thing. 
But it is hope and I have faith and it’s been wores then it is today. This all effects me on when, how often or how not often I hit the gym…the only thing that gives me a physical kick in life and so much more energy then anything else..
I pray for healing and trusting God that one day this shi*t will be gone and I can do what is good for my body.

Hair changes May-18
It’s time for a change. The hair is growing but not as fast as I could wish for. Normally I would not complain which I don’t in that sense but right now I couldn’t be more happy if it was a bit longer. 😂😂😂
So to make it as close as I wish I have to bleach it… which I haven’t done in years! It’s to redbrownish and I need it to be more blond..
Here we go… here it is step by step 😊 from the top with my old outgrown haircut and red-brownish hair colour to after the bleaching.
Done 😉 it’s perfect! Not to orange not to blond 😍
Next step in this changing will happend on May 5th…. step by step from excited to all hair in. I will go from haveing short hair to long by putting extentions in. 😊 First time ever for that 😲. But I have since January wanted long hair again.
It’s 3 years since I cut off my long hair and went for all kind of shorter haircut. I was tired on my long hair. Tired of looking the same, having the thick hair I do get.
It has hit me that I have some kind of habbit to grow out my hair for 2 maximum 3 years. Let it be and not doing much and the cut it, have short for 3 or maximum 5 years and then it starts again… 😂😂😂😂

An other year has past part one.
This morning started with coffee spots on my hoodie ☹ they were there from before but I had forgot about them 😂😂😂 anyway… So instead of trying to find an other hoodie I was creative with colours covering the coffee.
Why you migth think, well I just wanted to use my white hoodie with black lips on the front on my Birthday today. I wanted something I haven’t used in a long time. 😉
Lets see if my colleague know which day it is today….they did and they wanted to celebrate me with lunch out.
After work I met up with my friend Bobbi Jo and went to the Swedish MAX Burger place.
Even if I was filled since lunch I ate a burger meal 😆 We headed of to Nails art and got my very first manicure 😲😊😍
I’m finally on my way home 💞 after 12 hours! I am thankful for my body isn’t tired yet.
The final last thing that made my day was the phone greeting from my family in Sweden 💞💞💞
The celebration will continue tomorrow…
