Norrland

Another vacational iPost, as I have already given up on doing actual posts on my summerish manicures. Today I'm wearing a bright dark purple creme - yes, bright and dark: Color Club Disco Dress.


Yesterday was partially spent on the beach.

Don't worry, there are sandy beaches in Sweden too, even in the north. My pedi might be purple and sparkly, but my mani was bright and sunny.

China Glaze Sun Worshipper. No fun application, but it compensates by being a lot of fun wearing.

We now have two doggies here. Ponyo is named after the Hayao Miyazaki character, and is the same breed as Svea, the dog in the previous post - a lagotto.


On the more sad side, I finally made arrangements to properly bury my beloved cat Sara.

She got her own little stone, and the girls went out to collect summer flowers to put on it. I have to confess: Sara was in a freezer in Täfteå, a small community north of the local town, for a year and a half. Living 600 kilometers down south of here made it a bit difficult to do it sooner, but now Sara finally got a place to rest. By a hedge of lilacs, close to the sea, and where we can visit her. Sara died at 17 years of age. I love her still.

One last photo. This is the summer evening in northern Sweden. Complete with electrical wiring. But still so pretty.

Swedish word of the day:
sommarkväll -noun summer evening
The last few have been cozy.
