Lovely morning

Yesterday I went for a bodycombat class. Don’t remember last time I did. A bit embarassing. I usually rate my training from 1 to 10 where 10 is the best grade. Given that I am untrained, I was happy with my results. 6/10. And I don’t have much pain today, not yet ;-). I bought a “tapis” so I can do some exercise at home. Have to do something about my belly.

This morning I woke up early. Nice to wake up and listen to the birds. And the sunrise was astonishing. So beautiful. I share it with you. Life is amazing.

Have a nice day!

Many hugs from Anna

Long time no see

Pretty tired after today’s work so tonight I will gather new energy for tomorrow. I have something to confess, I havn’t done any exercise during some weeks. Yes, I have been lazy. Exactly. Lazy dog. Last week I bought a magazine about training just to get used to the thought of getting back to pole position again. And it is definitely needed. I have gained some extra kilos… But exercise is one of my interests in life so I am looking forward to tomorrow. Fun!

Bon weekend et des bissous,

Anna

Dear diary

Today has been a lovely day. Beautiful. Blue sky. Warmth. In Sweden we have a big dilemma. We are never happy about the weather. If it is too hot we complain, if it is too cold we complain. This is quite typical Swedish. It is not like southern Europe where you can stay at home a hot day without bad conscious. When I stayed in south France in Pau, many years ago, I was lucky to experience summer until November, “Indian summer”. It doesn’t occur very often.

I have have had a long day at work so I am actually rather tired. But it has been a good day.

Take care,

Anna

Our community

In a few weeks there is election in Norway, and in a year we will have governmental election in Sweden. I am very interested in our society. I think everybody agrees upon that we want earth to be a place where everybody can live in peace and harmony.

To achieve that may not be easy, but I am convinced that it is possible and that needs cooperation. I work as a pharmacist and I feel very happy that I have that possibility. It gives me satisfaction to help people to better health. That is my way to cooperate to a better world.

I know that the Swedish government fight a lot to create new jobs to people. I am proud that we have elected this government because I am sure that it would have been higher unemployment otherwise. Proud to feel that we have strong economics in Sweden.

Why do I think of this when I have a day off? Every day I follow the news. I am curious about what happens throughout the world, because that affect us. I have also always been interested in meeting new people from all parts of the world. To learn how life and culture can be different. People are different and we need to understand and accept that.

Tonight’s news also promised that there will be debate on use of alcohol. Since I have done research on neurobiological mechanisms involved in alcohol dependence it is interesting to follow discussions. Here, to the best of my knowledge, I think there is a big gap from what we know of abuse/dependence and politics. So, I hope results from research will turn more into practice. We have a lot of knowledge that we don’t use, unfortunately.

Sweet dreams,

Anna
