Time to rest;=)

Oh, what a great day! I always feel so happy after having done all those things that I have wanted for a while and today I fixed a lot of things. Still lots to do but I am relieved;=) I am usually not a person that stresses to much about not having the perfect order in the home but I can feel that after a while of just pushing things around in the apartment, and still boxes in every closet etc, the panic spread a couple of days ago and I lied sleepless all night. Then I woke up and just said to myself: its about time to fix it now. And now its on its way and the big hard burden is getting smaller and smaller;=)

All the touring period was so full and whenever I was home I didnt have any time or lust to fix things. And then when we stopped touring last september I was just at home one month and then away to the studio almost every week again and then Thailand over x-mas. So there havent been that time to think: how do we want it in our home?

Now when I finally have that time and can plan our home to its best I enjoy every moment. Its good to "live in" a new place to feel it before knowing exactly how to have things but its been 9 months and now we know how we want it.

I will, of course, take photos during the progress so you all can see and I will as always also ask you for opinions and help when I need it;=)

  7. Oh, I know how you feel! :D I have exactly the same problem in my own apartment -- has been the last five years, actually :p Every time I have those luxurious few days to spend properly at home I'm so tired that I just can't be bothered... heh, takes a huge effort to manage even the regular housework! I've also lived in this same apt so long that my life and property barely fit into it anymore... :p Ah well, maybe next year when I'm probably unemployed I'll have time to do something to this! :D

    Have a nice day and good luck with the home renovation! :) Is it as cold down there in Sweden as here, btw? We've been "enjoying" these -20 C temperatures again and even if I love those pretty, snowy winter landscapes my skin, hair and respiratory system don't like this cold at all... :p

  8. hello, anette!
    somehow i know the whole situation. my bf and i moved into my dad's appartement and now we're living there over one and a half years. so it'll be time to fix and change furniture, etc. but we always spend our money and time for travelling and trips to escape from daily routine.
    we have plans to redecorate our home... painting the walls, buying new furniture, etc. since december but there won't be time until march now. and i guess afterwards we're too busy to do it.
    we have to organize a lot of my father's things too, so the whole thing needs so much time... but some day we'll manage it. setting one step after another one.
