Wah.
Sometimes I wonder whether it really was reasonable for both me and Ari to start school.. Have to admit that arranging these timetables and trying to find time for everything is sometimes nearly impossible. But people seem to survive.. I personally just can't cope with the "should" -thinking.. Too many things have piled up in the "should do" -section. Well, have to try to think positively and remember that this is just a short period of time. It'll be over in about a year. Let us hope I'll get a job and I'll start complaining again ;)
So I started this job practice period again (I work in a home care unit), and have tons of work to do in addition to it. Before that we had a serious set of exams with wiiiiide range of Finnish folk diseases and the medical care of them. I occasionally thought that we were studying to be proper nurses! Well, learning new is never bad.
Maisa the grandma cat who had her operation is doing otherwise nice, but she has lost weight and is having some incontinence problems.. Dunno whether we should put her down, since I'm really getting tired of cleaning pools of urine EVERY morning and most times after we're gone from the house >___< Dunno if she's protesting something (Aukusti keeps picking on her) or if she's in pain or what.. The mind of a cat is truly a mystery.
Spring is late up here and it's sleet is still pouring from the sky. The snow has mostly thawn away but this is already the third "post-winter" we've had. Somewhat saddening and utmost weird to hear the finches sing in the trees along the snowfall. The finches and thrushes' singing has always been a sure sign of spring here. Last week we had a couple of very sunny and springy days, but again the weather is gloomy and white. Gah. Almost looks like Silent Hill now, since after the morning sleetfall a heavy fog rose ;)
But, I wanted to cheer myself up big time and I had a haircut ;) I kinda like the ultra short hair, not missing the long tail I used to have. Luckily it grows very quickly so if I want to grow it back, it's an option.
Yeah, it went SHORT. And it seems I have to clean up my eyebrows ;) Nice morning swelling in this pic x) I really cannot be casual in photos, the best shots of me are taken so that I don't realize it ;)
And I'm going to buy myself a pair of Converses. Just because I'm worth it <3 (only that I can't afford the real ones, so I'll settle for fakes ;)) Already got myself a pair of yellow Hai boots, LOVE them!
A blooming shoe freak in me??? NEVER would have imagined that I would be chatting about shoes in my blog!! It's a weird world, mama.
I also have a couple of new floating resin heads on my shelf, as a result of a dolly business ;) The heads are from Angelsdoll, models Yuri and Shakan. We're quite excited of those two, me and Ari, since we both have been looking for some all new characters to our rpg (which has been "under construction" for four years now...sigh).
These guys will be living in a wolf-rider tribe, and finally I'm able to use my favorite Old Norse name, Brynja :) And her fiancé here is Geir, Gunvald's big brother ^__^ Currently we're looking for bodies for them, maybe a Dollzone 70cm (preferably the old one) for Geir and some 57-60cm tiny SD for Brynja. Emèriel took her own body, it suits her better ;) And ah, I'm probably getting the Domadoll body finally paid, so there's even more addition to my doll shelf as Loumi will be back in business :) The count goes in 13 now, if the heads are counted in. Whoa. But I love every single one to pieces ^^
And I also got an addition on the Blythe front, but I think I'm going to make her an own post :) Now for some school work since I'm having a day-off...
