Borderlands

IMG_4665_3Easy cooking last night…take out thai food

Igar kvall spelade vi Borderlands2 tillsammans. Vi har inte spelat det pa ett tag och anledningen ar for att jag dor mycket fortare an Jim sa jag spenderar mest tid med att springa runt och leta tillbaka till vart J ar. Men, det ar kul att spela tillsammans. Jag borjade sen kanna mig sjuk igen sa det blev en tidigare kvall for mig. 
Idag regnar det. Vi ska ev aka till en mobelbutik senare, men annars vet jag inte riktigt vad vi ska hitta pa. Vad gor man nar det regnar?

Last night we played Borderlands2 together. We have not been playing that in a while and the reason is that I die a lot quicker than Jim does so I spend most of the time running around to find back to where J is. But, it’s fun to play together. Then I started to feel sick again so it was an early night for me. 
Today its raining. We are maybe going to a furniture store, but other that that I don’t really know what we will do. What are people doing when it rains? 

Dear Diary…

IMG_4636_2IMG_4653_2

Det snoar!! Vi gick och at lunch och sedan promenerade vi till Bed Bath and Beyond for att kopa glodlampor och till Barnes and Noble (de ligger bredvid varandra). Jag har lange velat kopa en ny dagbok, inte for att skriva “idag at jag godis och spelade tv-spel, det var kul”, utan mer for att klottra ner ideer och tankar jag haft under dagen. Pa Dans och Cirkushogskolan skulle vi skriva processdagbocker. Jag hade en rosa stor bok dar jag mestadels skrev om hur ont jag hade i mina knan. En del av dagboken skulle vi ge till de olika lararna vid nagot tillfalle. Balett-tankarna till balettlararen och modern-tankarna till moderna larare. Det var faktiskt ett bra satt att se sin utveckling inte bara genom spegel och kansel utan aven genom att skriva ner det med ord. Jag kopte aven ny almanacka idag. Ja, jag ar nog en av de fa som faktiskt koper en almanacka, men jag alskar det. 

It’s snowing!! We went for lunch and then walked to Bed Bath and Beyond to buy light bulbs and then to Barnes and Noble (they are next door). I have for some time wanted to buy a new diary, not to write “I ate candy today and played video-games, it was fun”, more like scribble down ideas and thoughts from the day. At University of Dance and Circus we had to write process diaries. I had a pink big book where I mostly wrote about the pain I had in my knees. Some part of the diary we had to give to different teachers at some point. Ballet-thoughts to the ballet teacher and modern-thoughts to the modern teachers. It was actually a great way to see how I developed not just through a mirror or by feeling it but also to write down with words. I also bought a new calendar today. Yes, I am probably one of few that still actually buys calendars, but I love it. 

Yoga by Equinox


Jag tror att jag har delat den forsta videon en gang forut. Jag tycker de ar sa otroligt fina och det ger verkligen ett lugn till den som tittar. Vara kroppar ar sa vackra instrument. Det finns sa mycket man kan gora med kroppen. Det ar darfor jag alskar och lever for dans.
Yoga ar nagot som verkligen forandrade mitt liv. Jag behovde lugna ner mig, jag behovde sluta att oroa mig for saker, jag behovde upptacka vem jag sjalv var och ville vara. Nu ar det langesen jag tog en klass. Min favorit yoga har inte lika manga klasser langre vilket ar synd, sa nu ska jag istallet testa lite andra stallen och andra typer av yoga och se vad som passar mig. Att ga pa klass ger en lite annan kanlsa an nar man gor det sjalv och jag gillar det.

I think I have shared the first video once before. I think they are so incredibly nice and it really gives a calm feeling to the one who is watching. Our bodies are so beautiful instrument. There is so many things you can do with your body. That’s why I love and live for dance. 
Yoga is something that really changed my life. I needed to calm myself down, I needed to stop worrying about things, I needed to discover who I was and wanted to be. Now its been a while since I took a class. My favorite yoga doesn’t have many classes anymore which is sad, so now I need to try other places and other types of yoga and see what suits me. To take a class gives you a slightly different feeling than when you do it on your own and I like it. 

Shake it off

Den har veckan ar sa konstig med en ledig dag mitt i veckan och att J jobbar halvdagar och nu ar det helg. Traning star absolut pa schemat. Bade min man och jag har tranat mindre de senaste tva-tre veckorna sa nu far vi se till att komma tillbaka till det vanliga. 
En musikvideo som jag tycker ar lite kul att titta pa ar Shake it off. En massa dansare och gymnaster i en kul setup. Hade de bytt ut Taylor Swift till en battre artist hade laten varit bra, men annars kan man ju se videon utan ljud ocksa 🙂 Jag tycker videon passar in for att kicka igang helgen. 

This week is so weird with a day off in the middle of the week and that J is working half days and now it’s weekend. Workout is definitely on the schedule. Both my husband and I has been working out less the past two-three weeks so now we need to get back to the normal. 
A music video that I think is a little fun to watch is Shake it off. Lots of dancers and gymnasts in a fun setup. If they had replaced Taylor Swift to a better artist the song would have been good, but you could watch the video without sound too 🙂 I think the video is great to kickstart this weekend. 

Shrimpis

Jim var klar pa jobbet ratt tidigt idag, sa jag akte upp till Midtown och motte honom. Vi gick till olika mobelbutiker. Vi hade egentligen inte tankt kopa ny soffa forran vi flyttar till ett hus i framtiden, men nu sa vi att var julklapp till oss sjalva kunde bli en ny soffa och matta. Vi hittade inte mycket vi gillade. Den danska butiken BoConcept hade nog bast alternativ, men annars inte mycket snyggt. 
Efter nagra butiker blev vi hungriga och gick till Perfect Pint, en bar/restaurang som vi besokte mycket nar vi bodde i midtown. Jag alskar deras sallad med rakor. Nu blir det margaritas och mys med Thor. 

Jim was done at work pretty early today, so I went up to Midtown to meet him. We went to different furniture stores. We actually didn’t wanna buy a new couch until we move to a house in the future, but now we said that our Christmas gift to ourselves could be a new couch and a rug. We didn’t find much that we liked. The Danish store BoConcept had probably best options, but other than that not much nice.
After a few stores we got hungry and went to Perfect Pint, a bar/restaurant that we visit a lot when we lived in midtown. I love their salad with shrimp. Now it’s time for margaritas and cozytime with Thor.
