At grandma’s house the day before the funeral.
For many years she had a page from a newspaper
on the wall with a photo of me doing this. This is for her.

Hi! I have been trying to get posts up here for the past two days, but my computer has been messing with me. I could be in the middle of writing something, cropping a photo or whatever and suddenly there is a blue error screen with a sad smiley face and the laptop restarted itself. Super annoying and I ended up taking breaks at the gym or cooking in the kitchen before I tried again with the same result. My husband tried to fix it last night, so hopefully it works and the laptop won’t die on me now. 
How are you all doing btw? I still have a cold but I’m much better, so yesterday I could finally work out a little harder than the previous week, which was very nice. Eventually, when I have built up my muscles a bit to prevent injuries, I’m going to go back to dance classes. I never thought I would feel like this, but I’m actually nervous to go back to the dance studios. Part because my knees has been a problem in the past so that’s why I don’t want to just go right into advanced classes when my muscles aren’t feeling ready. But I’ll get there eventually 🙂
Have an awesome day!

Long and busy day today. Jim and I spent the morning at the New York Coffee Festival. Sweaty place for sure and lots of coffee, of course:) In the afternoon, after we went to get some food and to rest our legs a bit, we took Thor to the Battery Park City Block Party. We missed it last year but went the year before that and loved it. There were companies from the neighborhood offering things and a dance performance with kids in the area. Thor is kinda famous around here so we met people we know. We also found a picture of T and me from Halloween last year on one table which was fun.
We are kinda tired now after all this walking and sweaty weather. Now we are just waiting for the Emmy’s to start. Or, I am waiting for that and J is playing games on his computer:)
Hope you guys had a great weekend! 

These two photos has nothing to do with today’s post, but I keep thinking about these tiny beautiful birds. I’ve never seen hummingbirds before and in Chicago I got to enjoy my morning coffee while watching them eat their breakfast. If we move to a place with a balcony, I might get a bird feeder for the summers:)

My husband brought Thor to a party outside of the city. T is very good and quiet when we are alone with him in public, but when it’s the both of us, Thor goes crazy and I get very stressed. Something to work on of course. But I had decided to skip the party and stay home with T today, but in the last minute, Jim decided to bring T along. Fine by me. 
So, I suddenly got a whole day to myself. I haven’t been completely alone basically since we got T, which is fine, I love to have someone to always cuddle if I want to:) The only thing different, except that I don’t have to take T out for potty, is the feeling of not having any responsibilities for a few hours and it’s actually kinda nice. I do miss them both, but to have some real quiet time with no interruptions is awesome.

Thor was sick this weekend, but he was well enough on Sunday
to come with us to Clinton Hall to watch the first Bears game

Hello! My morning has been awesome so far. I got up, took Thor out for a longer walk and then had some oatmeal before I went down to the gym. I was excited to go down there, but my body was a bit tired, so after an hour workout, I decided I was done for now and that I wanted to drink coffee instead:) I can always go down again later. It’s great to have a gym available at all times. If we move, it has to be to a building with a free gym:) 

Hello! Min morgon har varit awesome an sa lange. Jag gick upp, tog Thor pa en langre promenad och at sedan lite grot innan jag gick ner till gymmet. Jag var peppad pa att ga ner, men min kropp var lite trott, sa efter en timmes workout, bestamde jag mig for att vara klar for nu och att jag ville dricka kaffe istallet:) Jag kan alltid ga ner igen senare. Det ar fantastiskt att ha ett gym tillgangligt hela tiden. Om vi flyttar maste det bli till en byggnad med gratis gym:)
