Bring it on Xmas 2011 - I'm home!


Two flights. Crazy turbulence.
For once when I flew from Heathrow I didn't get there on time to explore the airport. (surprise surprise)

Put my Finnish sim card in the phone and to my delight noticed many sms' and voicemail. The law of attraction has been with me yet again as contacts had been made by the people I hadn't heard from in long but had thought of them on the plane. How crazy is that!

Granny and mummy picking me up at Varkaus airport.
No snow. Warm weather +0. Everything looking so different compared to last Xmas.
I drove back home. With my ex car. I love driving! Felt so good to drive again. Last time was in August. I still remembered how. ;-)

Got home where more cuddles than expected were welcoming and waiting. Lots of happy faces. Joy joy joy!
I had requested to eat my favorite childhood food which I've been craving for the last month: potatoes and salmon. Mashed together with lots of butter! YUM!
First xmas gift waiting on my bed. Had to open it already as it's a reservation for tomorrow.

Now time to sleep. So many plans for the week to come. I thought I came home to rest. ;-)

By the way; have you ever flown so that you are sitting back towards the traveling direction? In the plane from Helsinki to Varkaus my seat was like that! Like a bus! So weird.

For the first time in long I am actually in the proper Christmas mood and can't wait to put on my Onepiece and red Christmas hat and just enjoy life accompanied by family, amazing food, pleasant weather, books and peace. Bring it on - Xmas 2011!
