And guess who's a happy girl? She was dancing in the snow, trying to catch them with her open mouth, built a miniature snowman, ran around and just enjoyed it. Meanwhile, I had to drive to town for some shopping. It's been a while since I drove in snow. Maybe 2012 was the last time, but I think even before that, since I didn't own a car. It wasn't fun. I had to concentrate a lot, and I wasn't in a good space.
I'm anxious today. Maybe the last days have just been to much for me. They were awesome, though. Or maybe that's just it. It was too awesome, and the thought of going back to Ecuador in a few days makes me feel that way. I haven't accomplished too much of what I wanted. Because it was too much in the first place, as I can see now.
Johnossi is a great band. This one is their most famous song, and it's very catchy, but if you like Indie music with a touch of Punk, listen to the whole album.
I made an honest effort, most of the time. It's not easy to balance my only real vacation time with the little one, moving mom, meeting friends, reading, doing something for myself. Besides Lily's happiness, I got nothing near the point that I had hoped.
But I did great ground work. It was a success no matter what. We were able to bring some of mom's stuff over to the new flat, and helped her envision everything. We talked a lot, I talked a lot to all of my family, and I really hope I was able to help them. The worst part of being far away is not being able to help the way I'd like to, not even the way I feel myself responsible to. Something to think about. Something to improve, somehow.
I met a lot of friends and family and had some awesome conversations. Not on the depth level that I would love to have, as many of those are incredibly smart people and a deep conversation requires knowing on what level the other is, and that takes time I didn't have. Still, I was very content seeing them all.
Just stumbled upon this one in my "To Play" list on Spotify, songs that I'd like to play in a band one day because either they're awesome, or because I have many memories attached to them (aka nostalgia), or both. For some reason, of this song, I only remembered the refrain. When I started playing it, I was like "Huh what's that?"
I started reading Marcus Aurelius with my friend 
So, that's the atmosphere here at the moment, both outside as well as in my head. I hope I'll make it to bed early today. Read a little. And then rest.
This one, too, fits the mood. Always does.
