tuesday

Something really exciting happened this morning just before I got any work done at work. Daddy called. Asked if we were interested in buying a new dishwasher. Then he said how very cheap it is and why it needs to be sold asap. We then decided to buy it. A brand new dishwasher!! jee. I was getting a bit worried about the old one rusting all the knives.
Now when it arrives it's time to figure out can we(mostly me) install the new one or remove the old one. It should be fun.
The guy who's selling it has a company which imports things from china or somewhere. A lot cheaper than buying from a store. Now I've been thinking about his business.. What kind of a deal would he have for a new washing machine? It is really the one that needs to be replaced. And then as I thought further iPhone came to mind.. Wonder how much would that be? Not like I'd have money to buy all that stuff but it would be nice to know the prices, just in case.
Well anyway I was really excited about the new dishwasher for hours at work. It was nearly impossible to get any work done. But I did. And eventually I got over the first excitement. I'm still excited but not in the same amount.

monday

Today's been a bit of an adventure. Waking up in the countryside early in the morning to get to a bus. Then worrying about the cost of the journey. Do I have enough money? Luckily it was 20 cents less than the absolute maximum I could afford. I was back in the city over an hour too early, so it was best to go home first. Leave my stuff there, feed the cats and bike to work. That way I wont have to walk home. Had I taken the car in the morning at least I would have seen my churri today. This was I don't. But this way is the cheapest way. I am not going to make anything to eat anymore today. I have 2 apples in case I get hungry. Anyway it is going to be like this only for about 3 days. On thursday I'll have money of my own.
Would love to go swimming again but I think it's a bit too cold for that. Terrible shame. Just as I was getting so excited about it.
I have found three new brilliant artists. I'd much rather listen to them than the radio. In case you're wondering, they are Duffy, Katy Perry and Gabriella Cilmi. I do get their music on the radio quite frequently but it is not the same. There's also too much bad stuff.
Speaking of music, last night we listened to Yöiskelmä for the first time in years. Really good stuff there. Wonder why there isn't a station that plays that stuff all the time? I so rarely listen to music after midnight, especially the radio. Not fair.
One more hour left and I'm so bored. There's nothing I can think of doing. It's been like this for a few hours already. I suppose I must find some great game. Ah I forgot we have mahjongg. That'll do. Brilliat

Sunday

I dont know where I'm going to wake up tomorrow morning. Sounds interesting doesnt it? The truth is far less exciting. It just depends on the busses. If there is one I can take to get to work in time.
Anyway I'm looking to spending days alone, again. It's not fun. But we dont have two cars and he has his vacation starting now. I have to work. But at least I wont have to cook for a few days. Basically because I dont have money and I dont intend to eat anything in the evenings.
It's been hot for four days. Altough today isn't all that hot anymore. Thursday was the first and that was finally the day I got rid of my winter fur. In other words that's when I swam for the very first time. Then I've been unable to stop. I dont mean I've been swimming non stop, only that I've had to go everyday.
To be honest I have nothing to say really. I just thought it's been so long since my last time. And I'm bored. Nothing has really happened. So I guess this is as much as you(you non existing readers) are getting today.

tuesday

I've been headachy today. I believe yesterday's illness was due to 2 possible choices, both mental. First I was so reluctant to go back to work that I somehow developed those symptoms or I was so sure something was going to go wrong that I somehow developed those symptoms. Today I got the blood test results and they were fine. There's nothing wrong. I shouldnt panic so easily.
Today after hearing the results I've been feeling much better. Only headachy. That could just be weather related.
Enough about my health.
My movies arrived yesterday and I just had to watch Brokeback Mountain right away. I was slightly disappointed. Dont get me wrong I thought it was a great movie but I had such high expectations.
Why is it when planning something that involves more than one person it's so difficult? Everyone has a different view of everything. At first I had to change shifts to get out of work by 2pm so I wouldnt miss the car. Then yesterday we found out that there is a fourth person coming along who is working till 4.30pm. Now they are waiting for him. And that is far too late for me to wait, since I'd be so late at my destination. Luckily mom decided to help out and I can get the train from here and see about the return journey later.
Now I'm hungry. I've been so busy since I got home. Cleaned the kitchen properly. Vacuumed the rest of the place. Carried trash out twice. I'd really need a massage now.
I suppose this is it for today and I'm heading to shower

the first day back

feels like i was never away. not a feeling I want to feel after holidays. it's only one pm and I feel like so much has happened that it should be later. I was feeling so hot I thought I should worry. I still worry a bit though I was told not to. I was considering the possibility that I am hypochondriac. Worrying so much about something that I will develop symptoms. I dont know.
My trip to see mom got a little ups and downs today. I was able to change my shift on friday with someone, but it is not the one I wanted so the boys are not sure if they'll wait for me. Have to hope his plane is delayed a bit so it wont matter. Why does everything have to be so hard always?
There wouldnt be a problem if I had enough money to take the train from here.
Now I'm hungry. I didnt eat much lunch. Just some carrot salad (raaste?) and a few pieces of chicken.
There are these two people at the office, the invoicing dept. A boy and a girl. Both are dating someone else but they just look like they could be a couple. There's just something there that seems like it. They even look the same. Not like brother-sister same but like a couple in love.
I'm probably far from the truth but wouldnt be surprised if they had a little office fling

the last day

tomorrow is work day again. I must say I didnt get anything I wanted from my vacation. Well almost. Did get a lot of reading done. Must have read like 7 books. I'm so not ready to go back to work.
I figured if I go visit mom up north next weekend it would make going back to work less painful. Wouldnt be so "back to everyday life". Since I have very little money next weekend is the best choice, even with three weeks of vacationing behind. I can save up to 50% of the travel fair when I get a lift to Jyväskylä with the boys. Just have to hope I can change my shift on Friday so I can make it on the trip.
If everything goes well and I can go, this is my first ever chance to explore J:kylä. There might be some hours before the train leaves from when we'd arrive to town. The boys are going quite early.
One thing that was very disappointing during the vacation was the lack of interesting post. I didnt get anything fun. Maybe tomorrow it will change. I ordered 2 dvd's and it is possible they'll arrive tomorrow. I shouldnt have done that of course, with my monetary situation, but I just suddenly got the urge to see Brokeback Mountain and while I was at it I thought I'd get the Rush Hour 3 as well since it was so cheap.
About an hour ago we noticed there'll be a Spencer&Hill movie on telly tonight. Hope it's the first one this summer. Would be a shame if we had missed some of them.
I'm off to the loo. ta ta

oh no non ononono

It's friday. Monday is the day i've been dreading for a long time. It's the day when i have to go back to work again. The thought is just too depressing. My great plan of finding a new job while on vacation was ruined. For reasons i'm not going to mention. I did send one application. Never heard back from them. Can't even remember what job it was.
I'm having the last of my rasberry sorbet.
This morning I spent about 30 minutes watching an introduction to iPhone. Gosh that thing is interesting. Shame it's so expensive.. I'll get that when I win the lotto or get a great job that pays super well. That's a promise. lol
It seems that I have nothing to say. Been over a month and there's is nothing i can think of. Well maybe next time
