Oh and by the way, I just installed StatCounter on this blog so now I know how many people read this! You are a sneaky bunch and should comment more. If you did I would post more! The picture above is eye candy to make you want to comment here. If you do I will look cute in photoshopped pictures more often.

The day before yesterday my housekey suddenly decided to completely stop working so I had to make copies of one of my flatmate’s keys. I gave up after having spent ONE WHOLE HOUR trying to lock the door to our place before I left for the blood donation thingie. This is Frej on our hunt for a key making place.

And then we found it, and it was glorious! I took this picture when the key-making-man wasn’t looking.

This is my top list:

1. “KEYS ARE FUN…”

2. “QUALITY KEYS GIVES HAPPY CUSTOMERS…”

3. “MAGIC Keyservice in seconds…”

Bubblare: the using of “…” + the grossness of the key people.

p1170525I finally got around to making me a nice & simple bag to carry around my books and groceries in. Not too impressive sewing wise probably, being the simplest thing I’ve ever made, but still. It’s all I needed! My flatmate Ulrika and I traded fabrics and I got this one she has designed and printed.

Becka came from Jönköping to visit me this weekend and relax away from kid + house and all that stuff, haha. We decided to do everything luxorious we could. Like this:

272008This is Elina and the clothing pile on the second day, after the party where a whole bunch of people had taken a few bags each… Today I’ve been adding a bunch of stuff to my site and of course there will be more. Somehow our internet here is sucky and so slow it won’t let me upload pictures to my database so I can’t add anything to the site where more than one picture is needed.  But that will change soon and for now there are lots of accessories up!

I donated blood for the first time today which was a very pleasurable experience with lots of lemonade and fruit and sandwhiches. I haven’t been able to do it before, first I used to be afraid of needles and then I overcame that but got a few piercings and had to wait. Everyone should do it because it’s nice and not at all painful or uncomfortable. Then Frej and I ate at Andrum which is a vegetarian restaurant with a buffet. Which means I’m still full because if it’s all you can eat I will eat all I can eat + more.

272008-14 My friends Johanna & Mattias moved from Bergsjön this weekend and we helped cleaning out and moving their stuff. Then they had a fleamarket party where you could take as much as possible of the things they couldn’t bring with them. So I’ve got huge amounts of great things to add to the site! Like this wonderful 90s letter writing set with hot couples, haha! There are three different ones all with 8 sheets of paper and 4 envelopes.

This kitchen couch was in the same pile as the chest though we thought it was broken at first since it was in three pieces. But no, not broken! Ulrika and I almost died carried it inside and up the tiny stairs but we got it! Now it’s in our kitchen. We’ll have to change the fabric of it sadly, it’s falling apart.

This is the chest I found outside our place today! How can you possibly throw that out!? People are crazy. It’s also locked and I can hear there’s something in there, very mysterious!

- Yesterday I had such a migraine I threw up three times and wanted to kill myself. Though Frej took care of me and fed me toast and petted me so it was ok.
- Being poor & having to rely on other people when stuff like my camera breaks.

+ I found a gorgeous navy blue & red 19th century chest out on the backyard supposed to be trashed, and a neighbour helped me carry it upstairs instead. Will take pictures of it tomorrow, now it’s standing in a corner and I can’t lift it myself because it’s huuuge.
+ Frej is home again! And he brought with him pictures of a gazillion rugs that his grandmother doesn’t want, so when Ulrika gets back from school we’ll get to pick which ones we want to bring here.
+ Frej also brought my parents old camera, so I am no longer without one.
+ Siouxsie!

+ Me being 16 and in love with her!
