Our wedding party,

Now one more problem with our wedding reception is solved. Yesterday we got a final confirmation for that, we can have our wedding reception by the beautiful lake by Åsa lake. It feels good, that one problem is less to think at the moment, because, when we got to know, that many places are already booked, when we had not much hope about the place. As they say, the hope dies last. That sentence is true, as well as many others. By the end, we got the place. And it is on nice place.More info about the place can be found here

Inspiration,

 “Ability is what you’re capable of doing.
Motivation determines what you do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.”
~By Lou Holtz

Sometimes, it is good to read wisdom's, because they are  good and sometimes are also giving strength to us. For me, I have found in a facebook the page, what I am following. It has been giving sometimes even some inspiration. I like to follow T. Harv Eker's page on facebook. He is an motivational speaker and touring lecturer. He has been also written the book "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" 

So if anyone is interested to have also some interesting point of views and why not, even get some inspiration, when that would be one good page to follow. 

But also, there are so many other pages and wisdom's, what are good to read and what I really like. Sometimes I like to even put the small words and sentences to the end of my mails or just on my net pages. I like to share some good things also with others. 

Middle name,

Today I got good news :) I got my old maiden name back as my middle name. It feels one way very good and I like it and other reason, yeah, I wanted to have a bit bigger difference on my name as my mother-in-law had and not just only one letter :) So, In the beginning of December I went to tax office and gave in application for it. They said it takes time two weeks, it took another 2 extra, but now I know that I have it and it work, so one problem less to solve :D Näääh, I did not see that as a problem, just that something nice and positive, since it would make me feel bit better. It makes me to know, that I am more different now from my mother-in-law, than just my personality, because after I get married in April, only difference would had been 1 letter of my first name and that's would have been that :) Now I will have one whole small middle name extra :D But to be honest, it was also similar to her maiden name :D She just had a bit longer than mine is :D Talk about coincidences :)

First work day in 2011,

Today is first official work day in Sweden. Just it was when we had New Years Eve and Day and now we are already on 3 January. It makes feel like time flies. On the other hand, it feels good, because as one new year promise I gave, was that we will grow more. Last year we had nice growth and we liked it. It made us feel happy. Every new costumer we got, brought us closer to our goal.

Today morning I looked after our cleaning cloths. I think, that I have rats in the house, since I can't find them :D I had them on my hand in new years eve, when I cleaned home and now... They just have disappeared :D

Happy New Year 2011,

 Happy new year 2011 to all my friends, my family and to all other my blog readers!! Hopefully that new year will bring you as much happiness and pleasure as you expect and have wished.
In the evening of New Years Eve, we got guests over to our new home, what we had bought just 4 months ago. We gathered together, to put a dot for this old year and was ready to walk against new year.
Together we had a nice good dinner with turkey, potatoes, vegetables and gravy.

Just needs to be bit more in the own to get better taste:

Now it is ready to cut and to be eaten:

Someone just was so hungry that, she tried, does all this big turkey can fit into her mouth, but unfortunately this time the winner was turkey :) 

 

Dessert was needed as well for a nice evening. This time it was white and dark chocolate mousse.  Tasted sweet, but good :)

Since I am coming from Estonia and living here in Sweden, when we celebrated this year new year twice, because we had not only swedes in our small new years party. We had also other Estonians and we decided, that we need to celebrate new year twice.

For Estonia, this year change was bring along quite big changes. From 00:00 1st January 2011 has Estonia got new currency to use. Our official currency is now Euro.

For me, it is second time, when Estonia has currency exchange. After we got free under occupation, when instead Russian ruble we got our own nice and beautiful Estonian crown:

One way it feels actually sad, that Estonia went over to Euro, because Estonian crown had been became also quite strong currency and even thought they say, that Estonia will be more attractive now to foreign investors, we can say, that it has been already attractive to foreign investors. Even when came economical recession, we must admit, that Estonia was not hit so hard as some other countries, especially our southern neighbors. But now we have to wait and see, what will happen with this new time and new currency.

After Estonian New Year had been celebrated, we made us ready for to receive New Year here in Sweden. For me it has been now third time I received new year here with my dearest and with friends. Around 12 o'clock, we went outside to fire bit fireworks and drink champagne. And new year arrived :D

As for me, the new year will bring and give some new things. And as they usually say, in every new year people will give a new year promises to themselves. As for me, I usually don't do it, but I thought, why not to try and see, what will be come out of it :)

So, here is my new year promises:
- our company will grow bigger
- our home will look more as our home and has a nice garden
- I will be happier and less moodier (Hard to keep probably, but never don't know what might happen)

So, Happy new year to all of you :)
