A very big sweater on me, but it’s my absolute favorite (it’s actually Jim’s, hahah)

Flera ganger i veckan gar jag ner till gymmet. Sa praktiskt att ha gym i byggnaden. Och mitt under dagen ar det ju ingen dar heller vilket alltid ar skont. Idag ar det ju mandag och da brukar vi ju ha rehearsal, men det blir inga fler rehearsals i studion for detta aret. Sa istallet spenderade jag den tiden pa gymmet. Lopbandet, vikter, pilatesovningar for mage och rygg och stretch pa slutet. 

Jag har ju skrivit tidigare att jag har gjort ett val att inte ta dansklasser pa ett tag. Kanske ar dumt, men jag kande att efter 20 ar av dansande kan det vara skont att inte ta dansklass pa ett tag. Ar jag trott pa att dansa? Nej! Absolut inte! Det ar fortfarande det basta jag vet. Men jag har ont i mina knan sedan flera ar tillbaka och jag kande for att pausa lite. Helt borta fran dans ar jag ju inte heller. Vi repar varje vecka och jag agnar flera timmar om dagen at att fundera pa dans. Kan erkanna att det kliar i kroppen. Att fa ga till en studio och svettas som en gris och bara flyga runt over golvet, sa underbart!

English: I’m going down to the gym several times a week. So handy to have a gym in the building. And in the middle of the day there is noone there either which is always nice. Today is Monday and we usually have rehearsal, but there will be no more rehearsals in the studio this year. So instead, I spent that time at the gym. Treadmill, weights, pilates exercises for stomach and back and stretch at the end.
I have written before that I have made ​​a choice not to take dance classes for a while. Maybe that’s stupid but I felt that after 20 years of dancing it would be nice not to take dance classes for a while. Am I tired of dancing? No! Absolutely not! It’s still the best thing ever. But I have pain in my knees since several years and I felt for a little break. Completely away from the dance, I’m not of course. We have rehearsals every week and I dedicate several hours a day thinking of dance. Can confess that it itches in my body. To get to a studio and sweat like a pig and just fly around over the floor, that’s wonderful!

Vi hade en mysig sondag igar. Akte upp till Union Sq, drack varm choklad pa City Bakery, promenerde soderut, genom Washington Sq Park, at ostron och bacon pa Wolfgang’s, kollade slutet pa Bears game, installerade saker pa datorn, kollade tva avsnitt av Fringe och sen fick jag en ryggmassage som avslutning pa dagen. Kan det bli battre?:)

English: We had a cozy Sunday yesterday. Went up to Union Sq, drank hot chocolate at City Bakery, walked south, through Washington Sq Park, ate oysters and bacon at Wolfgang’s, watched the end of the Bears game, installed stuff on the computer, watched two episodes of Fringe and then I got a back massage to finish the day. Can it get any better?:)

Det var sa mysigt att umgas med Jim igar kvall. Jag lagade en god och enkel pasta- och laxratt och sen satt vi bara och pratade hela kvallen.

Vi har verkligen konstigt vader har i New York. Igar var det stralande solsken och bla himmel, idag vaknade vi i en vit stad och snon har fortsatt att falla hela dagen. Vi var pa en diner pa Rector Street innan och nu ar vi lite trotta och pysslar med egna grejer. Jag kollar svenska program pa svt play och J spelar nat nytt spel pa datorn. Det ar skont med dagar da man inte behover gora nagot speciellt:)

English: It was so nice to spend time with Jim last night. I cooked a tasty and simple pasta and salmon dish and then we just sat and talked all evening.
We have really strange weather here in New York. Yesterday was sunny with blue sky, today we woke up in a white city and the snow continues to fall throughout the day. We went to a diner on Rector Street earlier and now we’re a little tired and doing our own stuff. I’m watching a Swedish program on svt play and J plays some new game on his computer. It’s very nice with days when you don’t need to do anything special:)

Gick till affaren innan jag lagade mat for att kopa gronsaker, men den butiken har bredvid har verkligen ingen bra mat. Gurka och sallad som kandes som tvattsvampar, inte sa trevligt. Men gott blev det iaf utan det grona till / Went to the store before I cooked to buy vegetables, but the store here next to us really doesn’t have any good food. Cucumbers and lettuce that felt like sponges, not so nice. But it tasted good anyways without the green
