Happy New Year 2010!
This time more measurements all though I'm certain that old seamen could count some weights out of this one too
The original theme being Greek made me think of the Greek Archipelago. As I haven't been to Greece and doesn't have a shot of a greek salad either, I thought that the Finnish Archipelago would do for this one.
This hand was very badly broken May 2009 and needs a lot of exercise to get better. Mr T has been very very good with his exercises and the hand functions now millions better than anyone expected during last summer. No additional surgery was needed during autumn, that all is postponed till 2010 or later. depending on how it mends. But it hurts all the time, exercise helps and patience, which is probably the hardest part.
Not much hope of any discounts in the old town area of Stockholm during the summer time. No luck with specials on beer but a bit better with coffee & cakes, but we had got a bargain on beverages on the ferry the night before...
Thought about the old theater but ended up with a picture of Turku Main Library
to visit your blogs and comment on your shots as you so kindly visit me. It's amazing how much inspiration and good sprits you all spread around. And fantastic shots!
I must admit that Santa can be quite a clown at times when preparing all the visits to those waiting for him to come.
I didn't get an award for my first appearance & performance as Mrs Santa on our first "gig" 21st December at a Christmas party together with Mr Santa, but we did have a good time.
My uncle used to be one out looking for the perfect Christmas tree every year, but now he has had this artificial tree for several years standing on the same spot. The whole tree glows and changes color and it looks a bit strange and even spooky in daylight, but is quite pretty in when evening comes.
Bargains found in my kitchen.
Been busy with Santa.....
I just noticed the number 8 on the building, a photo I took one day waiting for my son.
Neither.... a bit bending the theme, but this is the only bird I found, near my house anyways...
When I was a little girl, this house was still painted red and an old couple was living there. I always got a cookie if I went this far from my grandma's house, the whole 30 meters or so. But it was very far away for a small girl and I wasn't allowed to go that far on my own, even if I had dared to do that. The owners of this house don't come there ever and it's a shame that they don't want to sell it either, why I just don't understand. Otherwise that would have been our house for many years now. The man living just next door, to the left just outside the picture takes care of the garden and surroundings as he want's it to look kept.
