Eliza

Here are some works by my good friend Eliza Karmasalo. I love them as much as I love her!
More about Eliza: http://elizakarmasalo.weebly.com/ I think she's made the coolest book covers ever! Be well, my friend!







The Cat

Last sunday we brought a cat to our home. Barsik is a 6 year old orphan (he belonged to my friends grandfather who died). I would love to offer him a permanent home, but I'm afraid it's impossible because of my allergy :(
So we are keeping him at ours until he finds a good home. I'm so sad.
He's such a charmer!
Barsik is very shy. Not used to kids (because he's never seen one before), but he is slowly melting... The best part of the day (from his perspective of course) is the evening, when kids are in bed and the TV is on :)



Good morning to you too!




"Look at the time! He's supposed to be in bed! God..."

To The Movies

Kalle and Noora went to see "Rapunzel" today. The 2D session in Estonian was sold out, so Noora begged to see the Russian version in 3D (which she said she doesn't like).
Now I'm anxious to hear the feedback :)

Noora 6

She's 6! She's big! When did this happen? Where was I?
Because just a while ago she was this weird tiny person we hardly understood.


Now she's a pretty little lady who loves to talk, read, draw, discuss and argue, craft, play piano, listen to all kinds of stories, wash dishes, take care of her little brother and watch grown-up plays in the theatre.
She has a heart of gold. Always thinking how the things she does affect others around her. She's also very emotional (loses her temper quickly), especially when it comes to injustice. There's nothing she hates more. She's really smart, fair and friendly. She always takes action and loves to organise. Always has a strong opinion of her own which makes her a good leader but also gets her in trouble :)
She's dreaming of spending the summer in the red house :)
Happy Birthday to you, my sweet little girl!

For me? A Home repair, please!

We have been living in our apartment for over 6 years now. Every day I can hear it crying for a fresh look. Louder and louder... It's getting really annoying!

I have a pretty good vision what I wold like to do with the place. But... In order to do that, I need:

a) Tuudur to stop drawing on the walls

b) a lottery win. Preferably a Jackpot!


So I'll probably just have to wait for another.... 2-... years? Depends more on a Jackpot I guess.





This nice drop here is made by lovely Kerry from The Seventy Tree here


If you happen to read this and have some nice ideas that I could use, please let me know! Thank you!

Back In Business

Today was my first day at work after 1,5 years of maternity leave.
It was a bit weird. But nice weird. Lot has changed. New people, new desk. I felt like.... like I have a domestic hangover or something :)

I guess the last summer was the best one of my life. Got to spend 2 whole months with my family in our cottage. Safe and sound, cool and calm. Living for real... Something I would remember with warmth in my heart for the rest of my life.
