Exploring my county, July 19th.

Left home 09:40am, bus 09:52am towards Sandnes bus & train hub. To catch a new bus at 10:13am.

Today I’ve been exploring 😊, walked in residential areas I never been b4. I’ve taken busses I just seen in Sandnes or Stavanger bushub. Seen where, e.g. Forus Arena is located (where most major concerts for Stavanger and nearby municipalities take place). And I haven’t been stressed just smiling.

Sola municipality, 10.30am.

The rain or wind wasn’t a bad thing. If I weren’t on a bus I found shelter 😉

On a bus between Sola and Randaberg.

I did all this both becauce I have been wanting this since I moved back but also becauce I found cheap books online (via a website here in Norway where you can buy used things, a common website for the whole of Norway) for my upcoming studies which start in mid-August.

Randaberg square, not much here. 12.30 to 13pm.

When I got off the bus I knew I had to eat b4 I headed home-over.

PizzaBakeren.

PizzaBakeren (the pizza chain that started here in Rogaland) is my favorite and today it was a pizza with a thin crust.

I catched an other bus back in to Stavanger train station (13:05pm) waited maybe 20 min at the train station (13:20ish pm) and sat on the train home to Ganddal. On the train it was raining but my walk home were not 😊.

So I’ve got to see and explore and buy non-fiction / subject literature during 4.5 hours 😊😊😊 .

An other prayer answer – the Lords way.

Just like the Lord open up a door to a job I didn’t apply for, has he now helped me to get in contact with a young family who renting out a bacement apartment not far away from where I start to work the 16th of August. 🤩.

They are even positive to give the option of split the depositum in half or more, becauce of what it will coast to move. 🤩.

It’s perfect size for me and my cat-boy, near to beaches, short distance to use bikecykle to work 🤩, short distance to the local bus Winter time, a good rent where it’s included electrocity which I want, good window place for my cat-boy to sit and watch 🤩.

I haven’t signed the contract yet but I will 🤩😊. And the place will be mine from August 1st. 🙏🤩.

This is my chaos rigth now;

Tomorrow, Thursday 8th of July, I will be able to throw away lots of things 🤩 with a friend. And on Friday, 9th, me and a girl-friend will drive away with the 2nd load to 2ndhand. 🤩🤩.

Efficion week 😊😊😊.

Quite the same life Easter or not. 😉

Easter is here again. What’s different? Not much. Still Corona, same weather today as it was the same date last year. ☁️⛅ windy7m/s, 🌡+11°C .

  • 1pm, april 2nd.
  • 2pm, april 2nd, 2021… more clouds.

I’ve just been out for a very short walk with Silver 🐈 who didn’t like the wind either.

It’s Good Friday today and I guess most Christian go to Church normally and in this Corona pandemic you maybe go for a walk with the preaching in your ears or if you live where you can get together in a home do that. 🙂😉.

Spring sign outside my home.

This Wednesday me and a girl friend went on a day trip to a place called Horten, it’s approxy 1,5 hour drive South from Høvik, Bærum. Coast town. Pretty small-town in Norway!

Horten, March 31st.

We were not lucky with the weather. It started to rain on out way in to the town but it didn’t matter us. We just wanted to do something 😉 . So we did.

Yesterday April 1st, I had a day in. Started on my mom’s Summer dress. Redesign. Mom was as highest 5″10 and I am 6″2, so you migth understand that the clothes I got after my mom they become too short or wrong proportions on me… 😆😆.

From uncut to the style I want and fits my long legs and shape.

How would you say you did Easter before the Corona pandemic?

I have to say that I don’t have had to change much. I am still singel, with friends who are married and don’t have the same time to spend with me. Before and in the pandemic. Sad yes. Biologic family still most of them in Sweden, Norwegian family still in Norway, but as I wrote, most of them with less time. Why? Well that’s life.

I live my life quite the same as before the Corona pandemic. And it’s fine!😉

Being creative when I have the body & energy 😊.

I have to say life is good even in this pandemic!! 😊😊😊 I have what I need. I am blessed with much.

I wish you all have and will have A Great Easter wherever you are in the World.

💛🐣✝️Happy Easter ✝️🐣💛

Made up my mind – get healthy.

I have made up my mind to start at a gym again becauce I need it so badly. My body is so out of shape and I need my muscles back!

Walking the body warm works fine. But I still can’t do the machines I love 😥 all becauce I went to the chiropractor on this Monday (July 20.) and he actually made my back werse 😭😭.

So today’s workout is all about streching my back, hips and legs.

I could sit on this ball 4ever..

I’m in my own head when I’m at the gym. I don’t care much for the others which is a good feeling! I don’t care if someone look at me and what I’m doing.

Which right now maybe could be an issue…

Boxing corner just ahead of me.

This is my second time here. 💪💪😊 As for me as probably most people, the thing to get out is the hard part. But I have to say that today I kind of woke up with the “Exercise mood”. Which made it easier!

This is my motivation.

To be in the shape, especially my back without pain. To be able to push legs around 80-90kg. Knowing I have strong legs. Being able to push my arms on 40-50kg.

Knowing that my core muscles are back where they should be & holding me. Motivation to be able to once again be able to do push-ups & sit-ups normally. Motivation to be able to go for a run in the forest & on the runing machine at the gym without any pain in the back. That is my motivation in life.

I’m gonna do my best to reach my motivation goals. And by reaching them I need to forse myself to attend the gym at least twice a week. If I’m good I’ll go three times a week. 😊

And all this wouldn’t been able to if the Lord didn’t blessed me and my life.

I can only Thank Him. For making sure my financial situation is back on good terms. That He blesses me in other areas too. ✝️

Preparing for Christmas-19.

Some of my friends has this tradition of gather friends over to bake gingerbread one week before the Christmas break starts. A nice and fun gathering.

Last week at work….

Sunset on my walk to the tram 🚋 at Bekkestua.

Icy, slippery streets with rain and snow and cold nights…

Christmas party with work, December 20 at #bærumsverk. And a chocolate box from my land lord and land lady.

And now have I finally the Christmas break. 😊 16 days 😊.

And December 21, Gingerbread cookies day with my American girl friend BobbiJo;

Sundag December 22, safron bread tradition; have the television on w/ some ski ⛷🎿 programe, make the safron bread, use mom’s apron 😉.

Until this year I have been struggling to get the Christmas feeling, but this year it felt like my mom (who is sick w/ demensia) reminded me to use her apron during the baking of safron bread. And it helped. 💖mom💖.

Merry Christmas to you All!!

🎄😊🎄

Advents calender, 24th December-18.

It’s Christmas eve 🎄 it’s finally here. The Day I have been waiting on.

Here comes the verse for today; Psalm 37:21

The wicked borrows and does not repay, But the righteous shows mercy and gives.

This verse is just like what Christmas is all about. To show mercy and be giving.

We celebrate the newborn son that came to this World for us. Our Father gave us a son, to be able to show mercy to others. And we have the oppurtunity to give, show love and mercy.

Merry Christmas.

Advents calender, 23rd December-18.

It’s the 23rd of December and the 4th Advent.

It’s little Christmas eve, the last day to shop the very last things.

Here is the verse of today;

Psalm 31:7-8

I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy, For You have considered ny trouble; You have known my soul in adversities,
And have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a wide place.

And have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a wide place.

It is the time to recieve, to enjoy with friends and family, to love and forgive. I hope you will be with someone you love or care for tomorrow and the Day after that.

Spend time is better then gifts you rap in paper. Remember, you can’t buy time but you spend time. 😉

I wish you all a Happy Merry Christmas.

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. 😂😂😂
