Jamming

Tonight both me and Stephen have been jamming, I did gooseberry and vanilla jam and he was jamming along with the live big four concert that they are showing on tv right now.

Otherwise the whole weekend has been around the house and the caravan, we have fixed the indicator and made sure the fridge works. The lawn has been mowed, it looked more like a meadow than a lawn this morning due to a suspected lawn mower break down but Stephen fixed it and now it works again, he cleaned the filter and the spark plug and then it was happy again.

This week Stephen is in Italy and I will have to make sure we are ready for take off on Friday lunch time. I really look forward to go on our honeymoon! I dont really know what to do with flowers and the garden though but I am sure it will work out. I have everything in pots, maybe I can drop them off at mum and dads on the way or something.

Anyway, time to get back to some photos, I promised my new upholsteryfriends that I would share them.

Almost done

I have safely arrived back to Älmhult again with both a chair and a stool freshly upholstered, pictures are getting loaded to Lightroom as I write, will come on the blog when they are done. I still have a ribbon thingy to fasten on the chair and I will do that this weekend. If I leave it longer it will never get done. And I will continue to clean up among my photos, delete all blurry and ugly photos. I HAVE to delete some photos, 193 gig is way way way tooo much. Riddiculous really, when I think about it. Maybe I dont have to have all photos in full resolution either, I am not gonna print them on A1 or use them for a feature wall in the lounge room...

Now back to work, I want to finish the chair!

ta-da!!!

Almost done...

eating weeds...

Tomorrow I head 3hrs north to to my first and very longed for upholstery course, finally. I have been looking forward to this soo much and I cant wait to learn. I wonder how difficult it is and if I will learn any tricks. Below are 2 before photos, I look forward to show the after ones.


I also harvested from the garden yesterday for dinner, a big bowl of leaves =) Silverbeet, snow peas, some nettles and an edible weed that I dont know the name of but we have the whole garden full of it! So why not eat it instead!

Here I am

This is what I looked like at the wedding we went to a couple of weeks ago. Marie took the photo and I have played with it a bit. I inherited the dress after my grandmother, apparently it used to be her favourite and I understand why. I love it!

Finally!!!

It did depart on time! Couldnt they have said that straight away instead of keeping me waiting half an hour!

This cant be good...

...still not saying departed and it should have left 30 mins ago, the last train leaves an hour after he arrives to Copenhagen and I really dont want to drive to Copenhagen and back tonight!

Waiting and waiting

I am waiting for my husband to come home again after a weekend in France and hell fest. He will most likely not be a pretty sight to anyone else but me. I cant wait to have him back home again sleeping next to me!

This weekend I went to my grandparents summer house by the sea to have something to do, it was great and I have some photos from there but first I am going to defrost the freezer in the old apartment. The cleaners come on Thursday and they want it defrosted to clean it... But I just want to know that Stephens flight leaves on time before I go. It is refreshing again in 5....4....3....2....1.... and it is 10 minutes past the planned departure time and on the website it still says planned for 20.20. It is supposed to say DEPARTED 20.20! Now I cant leave this chair till I have seen he is off! But still I cant do anything about it. If I go and defrost that damn freezer it wont change anything, the logic of the female brain... =)

Ah well, I guess I am off then, it will be a surprise when I get back if the flight left on time or not. I just have to wait for it to refresh one more time, and one more time, and just one more...

Our own caravan on the honeymoon!

Wedding was great, what a stunning couple! And today we have been to Malmö, we bought a caravan... A tiny bit bigger than we expected and the clutch got to do some hard work backing the thing up the drive way, I hope it will survive.



And yesterday I harvested the first greens from the veggie patch, some young silverbeet which was very tasty in the salad!

I stole this photo from the ad for the caravan, just to show you what it looks like.

Nailpolish - tick!

We are going to a wedding tomorrow and while Stephen is off playing cricket I have watched topgear and done my nails. I am not sure I am happy with the nailpolish though... Maybe I'll go and buy another one tomorrow and redo them.

I am charging my camera batteries and have packed the camera bag, the important stuff. Tomorrow I am packing the rest!

I think it is time for me to delete and archive some old photos soon and cut those 193 GB down a bit... Sometimes a lot of storage is not the best cause I keep everything. It is nice to have a lot of photos but seriously I dont need 25 different angles of fig tree close ups...
