Summer in tha city
The bluest sky and sunbeams play on shiny rooftops. Hot pavement oozes its aroma, sweating people rush back and forth in their skirts and suits. And I'm at work... this is it; my summer, in tha city.
So, a hint of summer is here. Tomorrow is the national graduation day, when over 30 000 kids get their high school diplomas - and the white hat going with it. This year my little brother is one of the 30 ooo, and thus I'll be taking off work a bit earlier - to head up to my homehome with my sister and her family.
Jyväskylä, my homehome city is located 270km north from Helsinki. We're trying to be in the car by 3pm - so we could reach Kinkomaa (the village I've grown up in...) in sensible time. If it'd be just us adults, it wouldn't have mattered, but since there are my two nephews (Taavi 4 yrs and Nooa 8 months) riding with us, the timing does matter. And thus we'll be going already at three - so that we don't have to put boys straight to bed when we get there; since they most likely (and hopefully, really) will be sleeping most of the travelling.

Slowly I'm starting to pick up on work routines - but I still have time to do other stuff (like update this blog...). I actually feel like I have too little to do, still... But I'm sure, and confident, that it'll start rolling pretty soon - and then I'll be missing these not-so-busy days. Now I'll just... well, ya, I do complain. ;)
But all and all, things are swell here. My new place has proven itself functional and I'm really settling in there. It's just lacking guests - so book those flights and come up here. Even for a weekend - it'll be worth it, I promise!
But until then... *hug*
