Water medium,


Yesterday I got my membership in one of the gym's in Jönköping. Today I was already use it and had my first pass.
When I lived in Estonia, I went to water aerobics and I missed after I moved to Tallinn and later here in Sweden. I felt good there. Beginning of the week I saw the commercial on street about water zumba and I thought to investigate it bit more. On Thursday evening I made my mind up and signed up for a membership over the Internet. Friday late morning I got phone call from Atlantis Spa and they asked me, when I could meet with them, so that they could show me bit around and I could get my membership card as well as my present. I made appointment for that introduction meeting already same day and agreed that I could start with training already in Saturday, since I saw on the meeting that there was opening for water training for today.
Today morning at 11 I was on my first training and I was so exited, because one thing I am really sure and that is, I love the water. So, into the pool and training started shortly after that as well. Since it was first time for me in that gym and training class, was I bit unsure what I need to take, that made also me to forget my water bottle in my locker.


Trainer was very helpful in the morning. She gave me two dumbbells and I was ready. It was actually quite interesting. Some things was familiar for me from Estonia, most things was new. In some reason and somehow I got some energy and started to feel after training myself bit better again. I think that might be one thing, what I have missed and not even thought of that, but my unconscious did think about it. Now I hope that soon I will feel again as old me.


Today's training was really good and I just enjoyed it. It was exactly what I needed to start again with my trainings. Tomorrow will be new training in the morning and different class. Will see, what that will bring with it :) Already very curious and can't wait time to go further, so that it would be time to go to train again :)

Feelings,


We are humans and that makes, that we can feel and have emotions and feel empathy. That also means, that one day we are happy, some other day we are sad. We can smile, we can cry.
Today for me has been a day full of emotions. One meeting, made me sad, must admit it made me very sad. I don't feel anger or disappointment, just big sadness is filling my heart at the moment. But that is, what makes us humans. Soon this sadness will go over. It might not happen today or tomorrow, but one day. We can't be always happy, since life will bring ups and downs with it and we just have to follow that line.
Should that make me to drop everything. I don't think so. We have came so far and that will not mean the end yet. Options is still there and they will not get lost. At least so far, we hope and hope will be last thing we will loose. So far we live, will always find hope. Who knows, how they will think again tomorrow or next week or month.
Now, I just have to hope, that all goes well in the end and our wish will come true. It might take some time, but I still believe and hope, that the decision we waiting will be as we would like. j

Weekend in Gothenburg,


We planning again a small trip for us. Weekend away from home and have small exchange for daily life. That should affect relationship in positive way.


So today we booked us an  hotel in Gothenburg. It will be good to have a weekend in Gothenburg with my husband and have evening with our friends. We plan to leave home earlier in the morning, so that we could go and visit bit in the city and I could take some more pictures, than I could do in Skövde, I hope, since in Skövde the camera batteries got suddenly empty. Now I have to hope that same thing will not happen in Gothenburg.


Hotel we booked was recommended by friend and in the internet, it seems to be small and cozy. We made a booking for Hotel Kusten. Hotel was quite cheap and breakfast is included. Price for our double/twin room was only 820 SEK per night. Have free relax and internet and most of all, it has free parking :)
Now we just have to wait until the beginning of October and when we will make a visit to Gothenburg and will just enjoy time with each other and with friends. Can't wait it :)

Our Garden,


Today we worked again little in our garden. We planted some plants and fixed last part with stones, since we thought that some places should be made bit wider, than we had made it before.

Now we need to fix some more things in garden before we can start to sow new grass. We have to make a new space for our strawberries. Plant my peonies to new place and when we are ready to to sow. I am so sure, that the end result will be beautiful. The final result we will see first in next year, but I am sure that this is worth for waiting.

20 years...


... has passed, when Estonia got her Independence again. Time just have went fast.
If we think back for that 20 years, how things was then and how it is now, when it has been changed so much with this time and I believe, that there will come more changes.
What do I remember from that past 20 years. It is many different things. Remember how it was to get independence and shortly after that we was need to defend it, because Russian military came into our capital with tanks and Estonians defended TV tower.
Summer later we got our own currency. Ruble was exchanged with crown. Now 19 years later crown has been exchanged to euros. Is that good or bad - in my opinion, it has both sides, but as for the public and ordinary people, it has made more concern than good things. Lately has this concern came to the politicians and economics. Would we have had same problem, if we would had kept crown, that will remain the question, what will never get answer.
Other things, what came with our independence was that we could travel more abroad. First it was not very easy and it was also very expensive, but when our country improved that we can behave, it started to get easier to travel. More easier started it to be when we joined with Schengen and European Union, the traveling went much more easier for Estonian people. That has made people to feel free.
Also some other things have happened during this time. Most times has been that people has been satisfied, some of the time people has not been that. Always can find things, what we might not like, we might not like decisions what politicians have took, but on the other hand, we can't say much about it, since it has been us, who has been chose them to represent us.
Today it is celebration day. We have had our independence for 20 years and it is bit more than half of my life. I was just a schoolgirl when our country got independent and now 20 years later I have seen how Estonia has grown from the day we got free from Soviet Union. 
Today evening I just miss that I am not in Estonia. In Tallinn, they have big song festival again for remember the singing revolution. Only this time it is not that we need to sing us free. This time it is for at remember those times and also to show the world, that Estonians holding together no matter what.
Have a nice Independent day my dear fellow countrymen!
