I am alive - not that I shouldn't be. :)

Some people have asked where did I disappear - wondering if I am still alive. The answer is YES, I am still here.

Now that I look at my blog, I realize that my last thankyou-SAY5-posts have not been added and I cannot find them here... (wonder what happened??) I need to thank her... oh... one more thing to do!!

Summer has gone by too quickly. Work has been the main theme, building another. Roope had his 30th birhtday and we had a "party" for him; a bunch of friends came to help with the building project. He had no clue beforehands.

Also, a stable is being built (= remodeling an old cowshed). I try to help in as I can - but my friend Anne and her family are taking the main responsibility... as it is THEIR stable. We will have our hoof-animals there over the winter as well.


As you, who read my blog, know, we bought a clydesdale mare, a male donkey and a male goat... and we will add one more member to our animal-family; a female goat is coming to live with us, and to be friend to Yrjö, as soon as we have time to pick her up.

My summer holiday is getting nearer - the month of September. A bit late, yes, and it has been a long summer at work, but now I am happy the holiday is not gone yet. I feel I really NEED it...

BTW, today is our sixth anniversary. Roope is sleeping late into the day - he came home at 10 AM after having been playing with his band last night (www.vipmetal.net)...

So, yes, I am alive. And busy. And very, very tired. And not getting things done. But fairly happy, anyway. And thanking the Lord for taking care of us through it all.

If you feel that I have neglected you - do not think you are the only one. Sad, but true, I have not been up to my best lately. So, alive, yes, living it to the fullest... not necessarily... So, sorry, if I have disappointed you.

Let the life continue!
