Soccer!!

The soccer boy, that's my boy!
Autumn is here, there is no doubt. The last soccer cup took place one freezing day, late september. I hadn't understood summer was over so I upped and threw summer clothes on and off we went...

 Flowers are still in bloom in gardens around our area.

Freezing times at the soccer field!

Unfortunately The Boy was also dressed too coldly, poor thing.

The cute team. 

Lots of action! 

We put warmer things on him. 

You all know I've been doing some soul searching since my vaca and after the last year I've had. I've decided to cut away the things I do that aren't The Absolutely Most Important Ones. It hasn't been easy but it definately is doable.
Most important, of course, are my boys and my husband and the cutie pie of a dog!
I can't keep all blogs up, that I have been, 'cuz I've started writing another project and I've started exercise a lot more.
There simply isn't enough time.
I will cut more things out, I really want my life to be about what is important to me, and only that.

Instead of getting a much deserved sleep-in after my trip to a book fair, I went to the soccer cup early. 

 I did not regret going, one bit!!

Yep, it was COLD. 

This is important to me. 

He's getting braver and better and most importantly: he has a blast!

Happiness! 

Celebrations and hugs :-) 

A worm caught the kiddo's attention... 

Hot dogs and awards! 

In case you didn't know: an award is a goooood thing! 

My new writing process gets me to old times that aren't fond memories. It's painful as h*ll but it's also some kind of closure. It is very much a calling since I think it's an important story to tell.
So, I'll keep scaling other commitments down.
I'll keep you posted on the progress in that department.

Fall means colds and sore throats. I'm at it again, in bed.
Sunday is a workday for me, so I sign off here, wishing you a fantastic weekend!

Changes

I've decided to make some changes, here.
I can't keep up with my own pace here and will start posting twice a week as of now. Three times a week has become a stress factor and that is not what this blog is meant to be. Quite the contrary, actually.

I started this blog to literally save my sanity and life, in an extraordinary time in life, where a huge part of life seamed unbearable. That has changed and I am ever so thankful to this place for helping me see and be in my private wonderful life. This blog, my family and this small coastal town saved my soul, this passed two years.

I am so thankful.

Now another time has come, when I feel very happy and lucky, when I am in a place where gym training, jogging, new friends and even work can claim some time. I've also started writing something special and exciting.
So the blog must move over a bit. I will still give you all of my best photographs and my thoughts and thankfulness, just a little bit more seldom.

Mr and Mrs Blackbird had their babies and this week they kicked them out of the nest. They dwelled in our garden and were really too cute! Unfortunately all my pics of them were blurry...

Yep, The Boy took up soccer. Again.

Saturday was freezing, ice cold and on top of that - it rained!!!

Cuteness in the audience.

Loving his papa!

The Boy was COLD.

Gym time, for me, after soccer practice!

Sunday brought chillful times...

Looks at those cutie pies!

And they sang like ten choices...!

The weekend offered dinner with salad made of our own lettuce. Our first!

Magical.

I am totally and fully in love with our garden <3

I decided that Monday and Thursday will be good blog days. It's exciting to see how it will work out!
So the first day of the week I will greet the world here and the next to last workday - the charge day - I will feel the butterflies of the upcoming weekend, here. Seems perfect.

In store is a week divided in two parts, since Wednesday is our national day.
Good to have a Wednesday off!

Please enjoy your upcoming week! Our best time is now.
