Underbart! Jag alskar den har lagenheten, och vi kanner faktiskt inte for att flytta runt som man annars ofta gor har i New York. 
Idag planerar vi att ga och fa massage och senare ga pa bio. Mysigt!! Hur underbart ar inte det pa en lordag? 

Good morning! How are you today? We started the day with coffee and good news. We got a new lease in our mailbox and with the new rent I think we probably are gonna stay here for another two years. Wonderful! I love this apartment, and we don’t really feel like move around like you usually do here in New York. 
Today we plan to go and get a massage and later go see a movie. Cozy!! How wonderful isn’t that on a Saturday? 

Soon Christmas

Om mindre an en vecka ar det jul. Sa fort tiden gar! Jag har redan fira julen och bakat pepparkakor och atit julmat och oppnat julklappar, sa  jag har tyvarr inte direkt nagon julkansla kvar. Det blir bara varmare och varmare ute ocksa sa det kanns nastan som var. Men, nar jag val star dar vid spisen och lyssnar pa julmusik, da kommer kanslan att komma tillbaka. 
Precis som forra aret har Jim och jag bestamt oss for att fira julen sjalva hemma i var lagenhet pa Manhattan. Manga lamnar Manhattan vid hogtider, sa det ar ratt mysigt att stanna kvar. Det blir min tredje jul i New York. 
Hur ska ni fira jul? 

In less than a week its Christmas. Time really flies! I have already celebrated Christmas and baked gingerbread and been eating Christmas food and opened gifts, so unfortunately I don’t have much Christmas spirit left. It is getting warmer and warmer outside too so it almost feels like spring. But, when I’m standing there by the stove listening to Christmas music, the feeling will come back.
Just like last year, Jim and I decided to celebrate on our own in our apartment on Manhattan. Many people leaves Manhattan on holidays, so its kinda nice to stay here. It will be my third Christmas in New York. 
How are you gonna celebrate Christmas?

Thorsday

Idag ar det Thors-dag. Det har nu gatt en vecka sedan Thor’s besok hos veterinaren. Han mar bra, stygnen ser fina ut. Han har massor med energi men far ju inte springa runt och leka mycket under tva veckor nar allt ska laka. Han far vara i sin lekhage med sin tratt pa huvudet mycket under dagen och han blir latt uttrakad. Men vi klarade en vecka, nu har vi bara en till:)

Today is Thors-day. It has now been one week since Thor’s visit at the vet. He is good, the stitches looks nice. He has lots of energy but can’t run around and play much for two weeks when everything should heal. He has to be in his playpen with the cone on his head a lot during the day and he easily gets bored. But we managed to do one week, now we only have one more:)

Clear your head

Jag behovde rensa huvudet pa tankar en stund idag. Med horlurar och lugn musik lag jag pa golvet. Pa rygg med handplatorna oppna och benen avslappnade i en latt utatvridning. Jag hade svart att koppla bort alla tankar och blev snabbt frustrerad, vilket tyder pa att jag verkligen behovde det och jag behover gora det oftare. Att ligga ner kan gora att man somnar, men jag blir latt obekvam om jag sitter upp. Vet inte om jag blev mycket klokare, men skont att iaf forsoka 🙂
Sahar infor julen blir manga stressade. Kopa julklappar, mat som maste lagas, arbeten som behovs avslutas och man ska umgas med alla man kanner. Att ta en stund, om sa ens bara 10 minuter, da man kopplar av och kopplar bort allt kan vara skont sahar pa vintern och vid jul. 

I needed to clear my head on thoughts for a while today. With headphones and relaxing music I was lying on the floor. On my back with my palms open and legs relaxed in a small rotation out. I had a hard time to get rid of my thoughts and soon got frustrated, which is why I really needed it and I need to do it more often. To lie down can mean that you fall asleep, but I easily get uncomfortable if I sit up. Don’t know if I’m much wiser, but nice to at least try 🙂
Before Christmas, a lot of people gets stressed out. Buy Christmas gifts, food needs to be cooked, work needs to be finished and you should hang out with everybody you know. To take time, if only 10 minutes, when you relax and disconnect from everything can be nice in the winter and around Christmas.
