Time to move on...

My life has changed.

Almost a year ago I quit my job.

And there is only hubby and I living in our house.

Everything is fine.

But I don't feel like this person, who wrote this blog, anymore,

I won't be closing this, neither I won't close Motoristin Mutsi.

But I will go on writing my diary in Motoristin Mutsi - retooled.

No secret

It is not a secret,

that I am in love with sea.

And am just a little delighted on rocks.

Kopparnäs has them both.

Something small

In February I wasn't sure of anything.

In March I resing.

If I am not sure anything else,

I am sure it was a good decision.

Not bored yet,

but who could in summer?

Not sure. Anything.

I am not sure,

what I want to do.

With this blog.

With our house.

With my work.

With my life.

With anything.

The Sea

I have always loved the sea.

The salty smell.

The waves.

The reflection of sun and moon on it.

The whitecaps.

The sound.

IRRC - and weekend in Imatra

Hubby and I spent a weekend in Imatra.

Just two of us

- and tens of thousand of other people,

who had came to Imatra to follow International Road Racing Competition.

It is different for me now.

To follow motorbike races.

Seven years I was hanging in pit stops, following races

- and scared.

now I am able to just be there like an average spectator.

No rain

It have been weeks from last rain.

Almost six.

Nature is suffering.

My plants are suffering.

But: there isn't much damages made by Arianta arbustorum.

Conservation area Lemmenlaakso

On Thursday night we finally managed to get ourselves to Lemmenlaakso.

It lies quite close to us,

and we have talked often,

that we should go there.

Until now it has only been talk.

Awesome days

Weather has been really warm lately,

and it has caused accelerated growth in my garden.

Flip side of it is drought.

I am not complaining

- after last summer this is so much lovelier.

Filled with spring

Spring has sprung fast.

Really fast.

Whole last week we have had heat,

and nature, as well as my garden, too,

has started blooming.

Ordinary landscape

I don't need to walk long,

to see very typical landscape.

Around here we have a lot of fields

 - and thickets.

I don't know how else narrate those mixed forests around here. 

Tangle, perhaps?

But when I slosh around,

I try to find something else.

Evening by Rapids of Nukari

There is something intriguing with water.

When it stays still,

it calms you down.

And when it cascases with it's all force,

it also scares - and enchants.

By the rapids in spring it is easy to believe in the spirit of water.

And how it lures you to join in.

I, however, stayed on banks.

Not good

This post will be different.
No nice photos nor any other kind of photos either.
This post will enclude my unhappy thoughts, as well there might be even brutal expression. This might be also political, if it would be read like it is - it is left to reader to decide.
And it is also possible to not go on reading, if you just choose so.

One picture per month

I wanted to remember something else from last year than worries -

I knew there were also good moments:

some were very small,

some were bigger.

Here are one per month.

 Hietaniemi in January, Cyclo cross race.

Cold of course, it was January.

A flu

I have a flu.

Nasty, tiring flu.

Not bad enough to stay in bed,

but nasty enough to get you sneeze and cough all the time.

Thanks for the grandchildren, I guess.

A year ago and now

Around this time of year, 

a year ago,

 I wrote about the thing,

which bothered me alot.

It still does.

Little thoughts

My grandparents got married in August 1917.

They were married 40 years, had 6 children.

I never met my grandfather,

he passed away 1958.

Christmas flowers

 My Christmas time isn't Christmas time without flowers.

I love the smell of cinnamon, clove and ginger,

but I am able to live without them.

But flowers - specially hyacinth - that is a total must.

No matter how much I am sneezing, 

when they are in bloom.

Turquoise Christmas, first decors

 I usually start Christmas decoration early.

Not everything at the time.

It starts from Kekri 

and during the weeks till Christmas 

I put up more and more...

Short notes long

After five long months 

Lithuan insurance company and Motor insurers' centre done their agreement,

and we were able to get Chrysler home.

Still not sure,

if it is wise or not.

Probably not.
