Tuesday,

New week has been now for 2 days and tomorrow will be turn on work week, because just 2 days more and my long waited weekend will arrive. That feels good and I really wait it.
As I have wrote today, when it is International Women's day, day for all women. Seems only, that my fiancée has forget it, and I have not got any flowers, but still I have most important thing in our life - I have him and that feels so good.

Today, I have heard from Radio and read from the newspaper how one 25 year old young women from Romania tells, that he has been for 2 years now as grandmother. That is after my opinion soooooo wrong. That is taken a childhood away from a child. They talk about that it is tradition in Romania, that this way can be guaranteed that girl is still virgin when she gets married, but to get married 12 years old... and her own daughter got married when she was 11 and gave birth a baby boy... Halloooooo... Can't no one see, that this is wrong?!?!?!?!?! How comes that parents and also society rubs a childhood away from a child. That is really horrible. More about it can be read from The Sun.

Today after meeting with one new potential costumer, when after we had coffee together with Kristi and Kersti. It is last day for Kersti today to be in Sweden. Tomorrow, she will fly back to Estonia, but she does not have to worry about, that her sister stays here. We will hold her very well as we usually do. And of course, we will do a lot of work :D And soon, when we will celebrate. We have two things to celebrate - our company will get 1 year old and I will get married and she is my maid of honor.

After coffee I also was walk in the city bit, since I had little time over before I met my dearest and we went to course. Now, we just take bit easy. He tries to make music list for our wedding :) Since he knows more about Swedish music then I do :) I have lived here only 1 year and soon 5 months. Time just flies and it has been full of so many different happenings.

Now I will wish all of you my dear readers good night and we will meet again tomorrow. As they say, new day is better than today and today has been better than yesterday. That does not hold always, but usually :)
Sleep well and sweet dreams.

Happy Women's day!

 

Today is 8th of march and that means, today is International Women's day. Day for all women in the world. There are 2 times, when women have small celebration - on women's day and mothers day. The first one is where all women can celebrate it, no matter of age, the mothers day is meant more for mothers, grandmothers and to all women, who has became a mother.

This year Women's day celebration is held for 100 years. First time celebration for women was in 1911. Originally called International Working Women’s Day is marked on the 8th of March every year.  Started as a Socialist political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries, primarily Eastern Europe, Russia, and the former Soviet bloc. In many regions, the day lost its political flavour, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love for women in a way somewhat similar to a mixture of Mother's Day and St Valentine's Day. In other regions, however, the original political and human rights theme designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful manner. Demonstrations marking International Women's Day in Russia proved to be the first stage of the Russian Revolution of 1917. Following the October Revolution, the Bolshevik Alexandra Kollontai persuaded Lenin to make it an official holiday in the Soviet Union, and it was established, but was a working day until 1965. On May 8, 1965 by the decree of the USSR Presidium of the Supreme Soviet International Women's Day was declared a non working day in the USSR "in commemoration of the outstanding merits of Soviet women in communistic construction, in the defense of their Fatherland during the Great Patriotic War, in their heroism and selflessness at the front and in the rear, and also marking the great contribution of women to strengthening friendship between peoples, and the struggle for peace. But still, women's day must be celebrated as are other holidays."

From my childhood I remember, that we got sometimes flowers when we walked at street, we got flowers at home and since Estonia was under Russian occupation, we had free day from school and kindergarten. There was also held different celebrations and concerts. After Estonia regain it's Independence, we started to be work again on that day. That did not mean end of getting flowers or celebrations in different ways. One of the biggest celebration in Estonia is, that today will be announced Women of a Year. That is something new, what was started after we got independent again and I think that is very nice way to celebrate women's day. Of course where will be held also different concerts and  parties or families just sit together.

Wedding jewelry,

Today I finally founded jewelry, what I will wear on my wedding day. The search has been long and taken some time, but now finally I found a very nice necklace and earrings. The set is simple but very nice and fits nicely together with wedding dress. Now the only thing what I need to find is bracelet what would look nice and fits both with wedding dress and necklace and earrings set, but I believe it would be easier to find that, than to find nice necklace since it took for me around two months to find just the one what I would say woww and that I would want to wear it. Now I have and they are on the way to home for us. It is good, since that made, that I could take off one more thing from to do list. So, only thing I need to be think, is something to cover the shoulders and to find the shoes. When I have everything I need for my wedding dress and clothes.
