Yesterday was a really good day! I managed to do quite a lot and was very happy about it all in all. Well done me. Sun was shining and the weather was really lovely anyway, so that helped too.
I worked six hours in the morning, went home, had a good chat with my grandmum on the phone, did Chinese, went to town, bought a light denim dress (!), had dinner with the girls in Tony's Deli and finally a glass of white in Baker's. Loved it!

What an irony; the sun is shining and it is practically summer out there (+25'C in the sun) and I'm lying deep underneath a pile of duves in my bed, shivering my ass off, as I have fallen ill. Great!
Eli ei kai tässä muuta voi kun vain juoda finrexiä, jonka maku tulee korvista ulos -strepsilseistä puhumattakaan! Helkkari.

The beauty of Easter
I love Easter time. It is the time of the year when the mood changes from sorrow to happiness. Today is Good Friday, which reflects sorrow and sadness, but only in a few days time the happiness and joy will step in and replace that feeling.
Peaceful and relaxing Easter for everyone.

Tämä päivä on pyhitetty laskuille ja papereiden järjestelemiselle.
Laitoin jo vuokranantajalle viestiä jospa meillä olisi mahdollisuutta saada depositit suoraan tilille vuokrasopparin umpeutuessa, joska viime vuonna pelattiin vielä ainakin shekeillä. Tyypillistä.
Otin myös yhteyttä Virgin Mediaan jotta saadaan tietää kuinka nettilaskuhoidetaan ja katkaistaan, mutta siellä pyydetään tällaisissa asioissa ottamaan yhteyttä suoraan asiakaspalveluun toimipisteessä. Taidanpa siis lähteä käymään kaupungille vähän ajan päästä ja hoitamaan nettiasiat kuntoon että saataisiin yksi kuukausi lisäaikaa Internetin käytölle ja jos tämä ei onnistu niin sitten vain ohjeet kuinka modemit ym. laitteet lähetetään takaisin Virginille.
Tässä pitää myös vähän käydä penkomassa papereita mikäli löytäisin vielä tuon sykemittarin ostokuitin, sillä siitä on sykevyö menettänyt tatsinsa. Lähetän vyön sitten vaikka Suomesta huoltoon jos mulla on vain takuukuitti täällä eikä ostokuittia.
Sitten tuolla työpöydän ääressä odottaa vino pino Financial Timeseja, luentomuistiinpanoja, papereita ym. lappusia, jotka haluan plärätä läpi ennenkuin lajittelen ne säilytä-älä säilytyä pinoihin ja omille paikoilleen.
Mulla on myös huomenna siivousvuoro, joten hihat heiluu varmasti myös tämän osalta tänään.

Tänään pitää käydä tulostamassa myös lentoliput Suomeen. Lentelen tietenkin Finnairin sinisin siivin takaisin kotiin pääsiäiseksi. Fintastic!
p.s. jaffa-keksit on aika hyviä :)

Tänään olin ensimmäistä päivää töissä sitten pariin viikkoon ja työpäivä meni oikein kivasti -oikeastaan hujahti ihan tuosta noin vain. Ulkona on ollut kiva sää eikä tässä elämässä ole oikeastaan mitään valittamista. Kaikki on kohdallaan. Kevättä rinnassa ja silleen :)
Töiden jälkeen me käytiin Marian kanssa Loch Fynessa syömässä ja ruodittiin (hah mikä aasinsilta!) siinä samalla elämää eteen ja taaksepäin.
Lahjoin myös kämmpikseni taateleilla sopuun, damn I'm clever.

Alors, en Provence
I'm back! Oh my God Nice was amazing :) I'm so going to retire in the French Riviera. It has already been decided. Before you start reading this post, click the video and listen.
This time we stayed in Cagnes sur Mer and made day trips to the Provence and the Riviera. The weather was sunny all week along and all of us got a bit of sun tan on us, even though I was using a sun lotion with a protection factor 50 :) Yeah, but I burn so easily and now when the UV rays are still very strong, I do not see the point of damaging my skin more than what I have already done in the past. So I will take it easy at first and use that silly SPF 50 and once I get a bit of colour on me, I can start using lower SPF lotions.
The first day was dedicated to Nice. We started off with a walk along the seafront of the Promenade des Anglais with joggers, cyclists and roller skaters speeding past us. We went to a big outside market in the Old Town Place-du-Palais and later had lunch near Palais-de-Justice.
The next day we headed to Cannes. Loved it! Actually, personally I prefer Cannes over Monaco. So I was fully enjoying myself on that day. For me the Cannes trip was the one I was looking forward the most. Last time in the Riviera we didn't have enough time to go there so I was super excited when we were on our way -and I wasn't disappointed the tiniest bit! Me <3 Cannes!
After Cannes, we decided to have a sunbathing afternoon at the house. We were in our bikinis from breakfast to later afternoon outside sunbathing, reading, listening to music (singing badly along) and just loving every second of it. In the evening we decided to walk to the Haute-de-Cagnes the medival part of the city and visit the castle.
The following day was a trip to Saint Paul de Vence. And yeah what can I say? Absolutely charming little village which has been an inspiration as well as home for some of the biggest impressionist painters such as Picasso, Matisse and Monet. It was beautiful with its little allies, boutiques and cafés. We were also really lucky not to have too many tourists visiting the place at the same time, so it was truly delightful. The sun kept on shining all day along.
The last full day of our stay was an icing of the cake. We went for a shopping trip to Nice and in the evening we climbed up to the Haute-de-Cagnes and had a farewell dinner in Le Grimaldi, the food was phenomenal. It was a family owned hotel-restaurant on the top of the hill and as we were the only customers that night we were able to chat with the owner and the cook after our 3,5h dining experience. It was so lovely. The children of the owners were eating with us and they had developed a taste for scallops, king prawns and exotic fruits and apparently refused to eat burgers and chips. These children do not know how good they have it! The food really was delicious. You could really see that the cook was practising what she preached when she said that she cares about her customers and she wants us to experience what really fresh and nutritious food tastes like.
