To h..l with Luther!

Sometimes I feel that maybe because I am unemployed, “homeless” and single I should be sad, depressed and worried and I should stay at home, not enjoying things and be bored and feel like a failure. I think this is the feeling we in Sweden blame poor Martin Luther for. But you know what… ? I don’t feel that way at all! I feel as good as ever and I am enjoying life to the fullest! I feel sociable and use all my free time to visit and spend time with my friend and family. This weekend I am off to Helsingborg and Copenhagen again and will be staying down south a bit into next week to see a childhood friend I haven’t seen in a loooooooong time, outside of Lund. That will be great! I am also planning a trip to Holland soon, also to see good friends I haven’t seen in a long time. Another good friend is trying to convince me to go with her somewhere in April, around Easter, either to Italy or the Alps for skiing. I know I probably shouldn’t and that I cant really afford it, but I it is so difficult to say no to nice things! I have such a bad character! Or as a friend of mine said; “you have a character like an old junkie”. But what the hell, you only live once!

Today I went out for a long ride in the woods together with my sister and her horse. It was so nice although it was snowing like crazy. It was also a bit exciting as my sister’s horse is still young and a bit nervous and still not so disciplined. Therefore I was riding an older, well educated and reliable horse to calm the other one down. It all went very well until we rode along a road that borders a military training field, where they were practising at the time. My horse got a bit jumpy and nervous and only then my sister tells me that he is afraid of shooting as he happened to set off a signal mine just a while ago. No wonder he was scared! But it all went well and we had a nice ride.

All the snow gave me a nice wintry feeling I haven’t had all winter so far. It really made me want to go skiing!! Any suggestions for an affordable skiing holiday at the beginning of April?
