Hello!

Still here!

We moved last weekend and this weekend my children are at their Dad's, so it gives me some time to get things in order. As you can see, it's all a big mess right now, but I got most of the things we need, I "just" need to organize and put up lamps, shelves and frames etc.

These are random shots from around the apartment. I can't wait to take some good shots of finished corners to show you. The apartment is very 1970 and I love the kitchen. All the floors are wood, except the bathroom, and they were all grinded and varnished before we moved in. I've been shopping quite a bit at IKEA, but hopefully all the old crap I have collected over the years, will give our home a feeling of me.

I am doing really good emotionally, as are my wonderful children. Of course they are sad, mainly the little one, as she can't understand in words. My son however knows he will see his Dad again. The next few months will be all about adjusting and getting into routines and habits and of course enjoying December....

I am also very happy about going to school and I feel like I will get more into it, when my base is not so messy and I can focus on homework as well.

Thanks again for all your support and encouraging words - they mean the world to me!
