A bit news, new mobile!

Hi all!
Has been a while since I wrote anything. The truth is that I have not been inspired at all to do so, some days are like that and some days I get an idea but when I then sit down and shall write then it´s gone! And with all that waiting on that something shall happen with the Union/Lo-TCO court help, sigh. Yea that take´s on you and no inspiration is there. But soon, soon it will be something!

Some new things has happened though! I finally decided me to get a new mobile phone after all looking on the internet for months. In the end I decided me for a Nokia E71, I really like that keyboard that they have on the E63(does not excist here in Sweden), E71, E72 and some new models. I hate when there is a thing you shall pull out or fold up/fold down, that is just a extra thing to tangle up in and destroy I think. My new one will be excellent in time, when I have learned me all things on it, wich will take some time :-). I´m right now just waiting on that the numer shall be transfered and ready to use, I want to have my old number you see. Look the picture, nice isen´t it? :-), it is has a silver colour.

Knitting front then? Well I let the socks "hibernate" it was a bit boring to do them. Im not a "sock" person I think. In my lack of inspiration I needed something quick to knit. I found out on internet that there was quite a lot of people that knitted dishcloths!!! Weird I thought but after some thinking I realise that it works to have knitted dishcloths. So that was a excellent thing for me to knit. It goes fast, no need of a special pattern, unless you want of course. So fast look what i had in my yarn collection, not much but I started with one at least. I have now bought some more cotton, cotton/bamboo yarn and is on my way to do moore cloths. Actually I´m on my third now, no need of thinking is necessary at all :-). At the same time when I bought some cloth yarn I also bought yarn to a "Teardrop" shawl, it became a "flax" yarn in a deep moss green colour, a bit shifting in the colour. And some pearls to it to, will se if I actually use the pearls or not, bu tit is nice with it. I bought the flax yarn in a store in Örebro but it is from Ullcentrum at Öland. Ohh I have also got my own yarn winder now, finally after so many years :-).

End for this time with this, something I really like and once send to "my" angel:

Today´s highlight!

Todays higlight in the crap, crap weather is that I got april months subscription tea from TeFrossa and it is the green tea "Japan Lime". It smells absolutely marvellous something in my style :-). I will try it later this day when I can enjoy it a lot.
On the knitting front I have now finished the first sock! As I have said before I have never knit socks before so it takes a bit time. But they are on the way.

The rest then, the so called "thing" or mess or whatever I shall call it (se post from 2009-12-20) and some small posts here and there. Well it will take some more time but it is back up at LO-TCO Legal Aid (court help). Can´t say so much more as it is an ongoing thing. But something will happen in the nearest couple of weeks. Sigh and sigh it takes a long time :-( and it takes a part of you and the mind! I repeat my self I know by saying this, be in a UNION you do get help when you need it! And courthelp is one thing you get help with!

be nice to each other, say nice word that lightens up the day

Hmmm day, but sunshine

This day has been strange in a way. I had some hopes that a "thing" would have come to an end (see blogg post from 2009-12-20). I had hoped that it would have come to an solution. But guess it will take a new round (the second actually) with/at LO-TCO Legal Aid (court help) then, sigh. I will see in days what will happen. But I say do be in the Union!!!

The thing that brightened my day up a bit was a award from Kida, a Sunshine award and it "made my day". And some good chat with my friend John , also some nice words from Minna. These three people made my day better. Thanks to you :-) you are special to me.

Something new

Hi all on the new year!

Not so much has happened since last time! Still the same at the working front. But luckily I have help there. AND i do recommend to be in a Union, you do get help from there.

One new thing is that i have started to knitt again, the "lust" has kind off come back :-), well a bit anyway. So right now i´m on ha scarf in dark blue alpacka yarn, really like to knitt in that yarn, soft and nice. Have also gone in to Pulsclub 2010 at StickaMera (se link to left).

Have also notifyed me to their "Te & yarn" swap, it´s fun and a bit exciting to see what you get in the post :-) :-).


End this time with this quote:
Acts of kindness, even in the simplest ways,
are what make our lives meaningful,
bringing happiness to ourselves and others.

take care all specially your friends.

Long time

Hi all

It has been a long time since I wrote here! And there is some reasons to that!
It has been a wounderful and marvellous summer in every way :-). Much to do with good friends and some really nice barebcue´s, and also making some new friends. The time to write here was not there.
But the autmn did not end so nicely at all, it was actually awful :-(. To many thoughts and not in mood at all to do anthing with the blog! Reason then, well I was simply terminated from my work at Bombadil Publishing, due to redundancy, hmmmm there is a lot to do!!! I was not alone to have been made reduntant either, there where more! There was no normal ethics in the way we was made redundant. Just a paper that said something! Luckily I have my Union taking care of it, I have handed it over to them. There is more to say about that and in time I might do that to. Right now I don´t have the words for it, but the words might come.

I will end today with my favorite quote:
"Stop letting other peoples behaviour steal your joy!"
~Joyce Meyer

So all of you be nice to each other and take care
Mari
