Going home...

Finally I've got the ticket! In little more than one week, I'll be on the plane with my dear mom on my way to good ol' Iceland! Yesterday she came to Sweden for the first time. It is goin to be so much fun to show her where I live and where I've been spending many years of my adult life... Just lets hope the weather will be on our side and let the sun shine at least for some days... Right now it all feels a bit dizzy... It's not often I get a visit from Iceland. I guess it takes few days to adjust and get used to the idea... But one thing is sure... It's gonna be a great time!

Later!

promises and plans...


Okey, it's been a while since my last post, but I've been kinda busy thinking of where I'm going and of course turning 40!

So with that taken care off, (well at least the turning 40 part...) I now think I can start focusing on other things. Many thoughts have crossed my mind and I've made too many decisions that I know deep down inside I'll never follow through... At least not all of them...

The once that I am actually going to follow through are:

  1. A trip to Iceland
  2. Work at Stockholm Pride
  3. Save money for a new camera
  4. Save money for the USA trip
It's going to be tough, but if I just put my mind to it, I know I can do it all. I just need to have a good plan and a budget! These are things I really want to do, so there should be no reason why I can't do it. I just need to get in touch with the more economic side of my self, which I know I have and just make it happen! :O)

That thing, that I've reached a new point in my life has made me think, that if I don't do it now, then when? I just can't sit around making lots of plans that'll never will see the light of day...
All this confusion doesn't only affect me... There are lots of people around me that count on that I'll keep my promises...

I truly sometimes hate the fact that I am "suffering" from ADHD... It makes my brain work in a mysterious way... It's not all negative to have ADHD, it makes me the person I am, in both good and bad ways. I just tend to make promises that I sometimes just can't keep. And my intentions aren't bad... it just works that way... I promise too much and I am an hopeless optimist!

So to try to stop that bad behaviour, I tone down my promises. I try to not promise any big things or too much. It takes lot of practise and unfortunately, lots of broken promises... But I am doing my best and I am trying. That much I can promise you.

So let's keep our fingers crossed (or not?) and hope I'll make it to Iceland to begin with!

Take care!

The BIG 4 0 !


Finally the 1st of May arrived and I was suddenly 40!

I had my celebration almost for 24 hours plus 2 more days as some friends couldn't make it on the actual birthday.

It was nothing like I had imagined BUT so much better! Almost all of my closest friends were here to celebrate with me and I am very thankful for that... Those who couldn't come at all I will meet soon to keep the party going!

Thank you all for remembering my big day!
