Old town, Stockholm

Tuesday. Grey and cold weather. Chilly. I need lights. A cup of tea and candle lights make me feel good. I am trying to get into Berlin mood. It is a little exciting since I don´t know much about Berlin. Or Germany. I went to Old town in Stockholm this afternoon. If I remember right a lot of Germans were in Stockholm at the medieval ages. A lot of trade. “Hansa trade”.  The Hanseatic League. Will fly with Lufthansa, so maybe that name derives from trading times. Boats at that time, flights today.

I am learning a new world. Photography. Unfortunately, I had to find a new camera. I like pictures a lot and that has become a part of my life. Photos is a way of expressing emotions, I think. Everything is so high tech right now so it is just to accept and learn. However, I definitely agree that technology has developed life a lot even thought I am a old fashioned. So, hopefully, you will enjoy better and sharper photos!

Hunting season

Hunting is going on in the forest. Elks are being hunted. There was no hunting today so I could go for a walk with sweetie. She is actually very demanding. She knows whats she wants and she is very eager. However, she is my very best friend, so I do everything I can for her. Tippa, on the other hand, is a little older and has more life experience. She has taught Lady a lot about life and how to gard the house.

I am preparing to go to Berlin. This is in a way a mind blowing voyage. For me. I don´t know much about Germany. I don´t speak German, but I understand some. There won´t be any problems because I know I will be able to speak English. So, what do I think of when I think of Berlin? I think of the wall. That don´t exist anymore. And also, since there is a presidental election going on in the US, I think of the speech given by John F Kennedy, “Ich bin ein Berliner”. In 1963.

The wall divided Berlin into East and West (the communist East and the democratic West). And from what I understand, the US saw what was going on during those cold war  years, but they never said anything. This speech was a way to forgive, when the wall had been pulled down, to the best of my knowledge.

I got some fresh apples today so I could make an apple pie. I like the smell of cinnamon and apples.

Family life

Today is Sathurday and I am visiting my parents. And my sweeties. It is cold outside so it is just to put on some warm clothes and a smile. It is very windy, maybe a reflection from Hurricane Matthew in Florida. Thinking about family in Florida so we had hamburgers for lunch today. Soon I will make some fresh cinnamon rolls.

I went for a walk with sweetie today and she is ok now. Her paw has healed and she, and also me, are very happy. Tippa prefers to stay at home. She has problems with her hearing but it seems like she doesn´t care. She is happy anyway and she barks if there is something wrong.

It strikes me how seasons change so rapidly. I miss July. Now it is just to get used to the thought of autumn and winter. Good to have photos to remember. I searched for a photo moment in the garden to catch autumn. It ended up by this photo below with apples. We have planted some new trees and this one is not old at all. It is astonishing how it can carry these two big apples!

I am a bit sad because we have to cut down some old trees in the garden. It is like cutting time. They are maybe a century old. However, it is just to accept and make sure there will be new trees planted.

I am sharing a photo from today´s exercise. Walk. I am rather good at balancing exercise with bad habits so soon I am off for the kitchen. Cinnamon rolls.

Thursday

I don´t know what is going on, but I can tell you that nobody can ever force me to do anything. I have the right to live my own life. I have been exposed for several external suicide attempts but I am still alive. I really do not understand, but I have the right to chose my own life, regardless of previous relations. So, please leave me and let me live and chose my own life. Swedish government has no right to decide over my life.
