A day, oh what a day

I started out a little bit better today, I talked on Skype with one of my best friends and my partner at arvid&olof, and she made it all better. It's so nice to have a company together with a friend, I know that it cab be risky, but when it works it's so great! I tend to feel better when I can dwell on my mind going haywire, I think I sort of listen to myself in a better way. It's harder for me to get over the crazieness when the conversation takes place in my head... It's not totally good though to talk to someone when I feel anxious, I have to learn to ride the anxiety wave all on my own, in that way I learn that it's not dangerous or so unbearable that I will pass out. What I Do need to do is to find an outlet for it a bit faster, something else that I can occupy my mind with and break the bad pattern. Today that was cupcakes, chocolate with pink hart shaped sprinkles. 

Butterflies, anxiety and prosperety

Today has been quite a day, full of anxiety mixed with a lot of prosperety. It's a difficult combination for me because I sometimes have a hard time telling them apart, and I end up feeling not so good. I notice that I have come a long way with my work towards my anxiety, but sometimes my head goes bananas anyway. I'm not sure how I'm going to feel tomorrow morning, I'm just not sure if I have paid enough attention to it for it to leave me be tomorrow. It's like an annoying little brother, if you don't pay attention to it enough, or you just pretend to give it attention, it's going to come back again and again and again and REALLY make you listen... I have a fantastic appartment here in Berlin and I love to put fresch flowers in every corner, that beauty gives me a lot of pleasure and remindes me of how lucky I am and how much love I have surrounding me💗.

Carbonara Thursday

Today it's Thursday and some snow in the air. I decided to make carbonara, I love it! Nice with some comfort food at the end of january:), and a glass of red;). I'm listening to some feel good music as well, Eurythmics, Pet Shop boys, Fleetwood Mac and so on. It's nice to take a couple of dance steps between chopping garlic and cooking the pasta. 

HappyThursday! 

 

Sewing machine

I have decided to buy a sewing machine, but in the meantime, I knit:). I found this cute yarn with glitter, the dark blue was out today though so I'll continue with black... I really just wanted to knit, so I'm making a simple scarf.

New office!

Tomorrow I'm ditching my home office and moving in to an actual office:). I'm going to try it out for a while and see if I like it, I think I will. I have a clothing brand for kids called Darling oh my and a print studio, arvid&olof, with a friend of mine. There is going to be a lot of work for a while now so an office works out pretty well at the moment. 

Here are some pictures of my designs for the clothing line.

Cape!

I made capes for two of my favourite people in the world, H1 and H2, not their names really...but haven't asker them if they can be in this blog yet:). They are 4 years old and twins, and wonderful people. So:), I made them capes for christmas. Super easy, it took me 4 hours. Just make a half moon, cut out another half moon for neck space and sew it all together. 

Go crazy with fabrics, I put a shiny see through fabric on top of a goofy one:). 

Good luck!

Crochet

My crochet project is coming along, only dubble as much for it to be done... I like crochet almost better than knitting, it's nice to see a granny square actually be finished in one sitting so to speak:). I think I will do a threw for my bed, or just a blanket. There are a bunch of good instruction videos online if you are not sure how to start.

Happy weekend!
