Winter arrived this week and the mornings were -6c. We'd been pretty mild so it was a shock to the system at first but now I've accepted winter is here, unpacked all my winter gear and I'm embracing it!
My first week at my new job went very well, I'm loving being back at work. It's funny but I always quite fancied being a lady of leisure and not working, but in reality it's no fun. Having a job is important, so important. Being a kept woman is not all it's cracked up to be, in fact I hated it! I have worked since I was 19 so not having my own money has been pretty crap.
Living in the most expensive country in the world on one wage has not been easy but Henrik and I have managed brilliantly (mainly due to his great money management skills, not mine!)but we are now looking forward to being a two income house again (and the even better news is that my salary is 150% higher than it was in London!!!) Good times!
Enjoy the weekend!
wow! if you managed on one salary you'll be living like kings on two! it is good to work. i get stressed when i'm busy but i used to hate not having anything to do. it's ok for a day or two, then starts to drive me crazy. enjoy your new life...and the winter. good to embrace it! x
ReplyDeleteCozy, cozy, cozy pictures. And yea! for your own money! I feel rich now that I have my job again. Even thought that's all just an illusion, what a difference it makes.
