Sweden

Going home next thursday for a week. Can't wait...reunited with my parents...AND my sister that I haven't seen since March. Super excited <3 I hope there will be some snow when I arrive...how idyllic wouldn't that be?!

That Last Warm Day In October

My mind slowly drowns in memories
made holy by time.
Daylight fades. A gentle breeze
scatters a rainbow of leaves.

Thirty years ago, my eyes
were blinded by my vision.
I was adrift in a dream,
homeless in heaven, wandering
constellation to constellation,
footsteps leaving no traces.

Clay pressed cold against my back,
the arrogant scent of sycamores
mellowed by that of wild mint,
the hypnotic song of muddy waters
lapping against granite and driftwood,
our lips straining towards each other's,
and brushing so lightly, as if gossamer.

Terra firma was your home, flesh
and blood your natural elements.
Gravity kept your eyes open

Cosy!

Found this gorgeous oversized cardigan from DK. Way out of my prize limit so I might just have to knit one myself :)

Feeling sorry for myself...

Constant coughing, soar throat and sneezing non stop. I hate being ill! I wanna be able to enjoy the sun outside without freaking people out with my drugged voice :(

Winter wonderland

I want snow and I want to go skiing...I was super excited the other day when the first frost arrived :)

Mission completed!

Finally I found a pair of boots for this winter. They're from New Look and got them for £26.99..can't get better :)
