Back to business

Hello there...it's been a three years break from blogging. Having children did make a stop to my other activities, I kind of had thought I could manage some kind of small extra personal things going on, but soon I realised that not really. Having two small kids and 8 hour office work did use my time in complete. But dreaming is allowed and now I am back in business.

Big changes has also happened; I have moved to my native Finland and I am very happy about it. My decade in Barcelona has come to an end. Finally everything happened very quickly from the initial decision in November -16 (I had a minor personal nervous breakdown on a street and it could not be overlooked anymore that I wasn't happy living in Barcelona) to the final move on September -17 that I really had no time to reflect the change. To have a "Farewell to Barcelone" -series or something. But it will come one day.

So one part of my dream has been accomplished when moving to the south of Finland. (I am actually from the north part of the country, but happy to live here in the south as well.) Second part would be to go back to the path of my studies that is textile and clothing, to be creative and manage to have living out of it. I am working on it... One step for that was to order this wonderful inspiring book of Daniella Kryssa; "Your inner Critic Is a Big Jerk". It indeed is. I already have managed to avoid some excuses that are listed in the book; I won't go for the path of cleaning the house, doing errands etc. as I have already done that in my past. In 2011-12 I had a break from work and I messed my free time with those kind of excuses so I won't fail into that trap anymore.  I must admit though that from those years I started to navigate more on the internet and reading blogs and trying to figure out what could be my share of it so my time didn't go completely to excuses
Other big time inspiration for me is the Fly Girl Blog that I have been checking once in a while during many years. It must have been from this Andrea Pippins blog that I actually got to know about this book.

I hope this is a start for something new. Now at least I am living a really nice moment in my life. see you soon!
