A little bit of clarity

Tired and slooowww today... Had the morning off so we got a little moving preparation done. Signed a contract for a storage room since we're moving all of our things out of Nicklas' apartment next week end. By then I should have sold my apartment too. Scarry!

After that little adventure where I was lucky enough to get drenched like a cat - twice - I headed off to TV4 where we had booked in a field trip with the class. We went to have a look at their web office and see what they do and all that. Some good info, including that it's pretty much impossible to get a job there without having worked for a news paper site or something like it for a few years. I was pretty glad that that direction never really was my goal with this to start with. I think I'm going to actually stick with my original thought and try to get into a marketing team somewhere with web/intranet responsibility. I think that would do me quite nicely. Have actually found a few jobs that would be perfect, but don't think they want to wait until next January to hire me...

Plans for this evening were to get my butt to the gym with Annika for a bodypump session... but I don't think that's going to happen. Much too comfy here now... bad, bad me. One of these days I will get back to working out, but today is not going to be the day.

God bless the sun!

This week end has been soooo nice! Thanks to the global warming phenomenon we have had temperatures of over 20 degrees, and LOTS of sun. Aaahh... And on top of that, I actually had a week end with nothing to do but enjoy that sun shine. :) Other than taking it very easy and going to see the show at Wallmanns on Friday night, very little has taken place. Thought we'd take advantage of the possibility of relaxing, since the next few weeks won't be quite as free. Next week end is all about showing my apartment, and therefore big time cleaning will be necessary. Week end after that is moving out our stuff from Nicklas' apartment and cleaning that for the new owners who come in on May 2nd. And then start all the birthdays... only 2 more months until the new apartment, and Summer holidays! woohoo!

Pride

Feeling quite proud today. My project group and I actually managed to finish our information web site today - and it's not due until Monday! Now, I'm sure we'll figure out some more stuff that has to be fixed and changed, but it shouldn't be too much more. All the links work, the pics are pretty darn cool, and the texts are good. Well done us! I think the site is going to be posted online for real. If/when that happens I'll be adding the link to the list. That's it. It's nice to be able to take a night off without feeling guilty. Tomorrow's another day.

Yet Another Easter Older

It's funny how you go around waiting for something for so long, and then it all passes so quickly. I realised while in Gränna, that I hadn't actually been back since X-mas. Kept meaning to but just didn't get around to it. Bad, bad.
Either way, it was very nice and relaxing with a few days off. As usual, the fresh air knocked me out for the first day or so, but once adjusted there was plenty to keep us all out of doors in the nice weather. Having all the kids around was a blast, and the dogs caused havock as per usual. Pasco charmed everyone once again... he sure knows when to pick his moments of perfect behaviour!
The only downer was the fact that I couldn't eat most of the candy, and the beautiful cake that my sister and Anton made... it taunted me for three days before the others had finally finished it off!
Now we're all back in Stockholm, and back to planning and plotting - along with quite a bit of school work. My apartment should be coming out for sale on the internet tomorrow. Woohoo! And it's now only just over 2 months until we move. Pretty cool! Always lots to look forward to. I think the nearest item on my list is a looong night of sleeping. Toodleoo!

Easter is upon us

Wednesday afternoon. Tomorrow we're off to the country to join the whole family. Quite looking forward to it really. Not that it's going to be quite as calm as I had initially planned. There will be 5 kids under teen age around for the first few days, so I'm sure we will be kept busy and awake a large part of the day's 24 hours. But at least the sound of screaming children will be a nice change from the constant traffic and drunken ramblings outside our window!
The sale of my apartment is becoming more real every day. Yesterday they were here to take pictures, and seemed very pleased with what they saw. Their system for setting prices is somewhat questionable though. You're not allowed to set a price that the seller wouldn't accept to sell for... but the price they're setting on mine for bidding start is way lower than I would ever sell it for. Chances are very good that I won't have to, but it seems somewhat wrong to set the prices like that all the same. Well, it's not my head in the noose if someone objects in the end.
Having some difficulty concentrating on what I'm supposed to be doing... which is work for school. And as usual anything I don't do now, I have to do over the week end... sigh. Right. That's it. Work. Have to work...

Monday Bloody Monday...

Mondays just never stop coming! So frustrating, especially Monday mornings. But as most Mondays, this too shall end I suppose. Before it does however, there is much to do... Tomorrow 10 AM is photoshoot time in my apartment... We've spent the whole week end packing and moving (although Nicklas and Andreas did most of the moving due to my back - Thank you!!!) and now there is the cleaning left. Did some last night but think the windows probably have to get a little once over with the polish cloth.
The apartment will probably be out on the internet during the week, and showing is a week or two after Easter. Eek! But so nice to finally get it over with! Once it's done, we can really start focusing on the new place. Only 2 1/2 months left now... count down is constantly running! Woohoo!

Wish I could say things would settle down once the showing is over, but I very much doubt it. School has really stepped it all up a notch and there is much to do at all times. It's fun but lots. Some things almost seem like too much fun... But it's all evened out by the other stuff, so I'm not going to worry about wasting my time and money just yet.
