How to survive November 2017- 27
I started late and I am doing the same with the end- a day late. Welcome December. Today we got snow, it won’t last… but it’s here now

Nearly done with this month! YES! Drove to work and it was dark. Came home it was dark. I did go to a training for work and on the way there visited an art gallery. Not too bad for a slush filled day.

An other day has gone, at work I ended up at IKEA buying stuff for our office. Can you believe it, I think it was my first time having lunch there, I did not eat their best-seller, meatballs either, but da, daa… one more experience in my bag.

What can I say, November can look good if you make the effort to be in the nature at the right time, pay attention to color contrasts and details like rocks on the ground or drift wood. If you just look at it – it’s OK, but the wind factor makes the weather very harsh.

Sunday morning and day was no surprise to me it was grey and rainy again. In the afternoon there was a hint of light just before it set. We drove to Helsinki and on our way back 16:30 it was dark again. The joys of light.

Saturday morning surprised me with sunshine as I walked to get the morning paper from the mail box. Happy, happy 😃

I am getting My new computer tomorrow setup as my son is coming to do it for me. I am not technically savvy so its a blessing to have someone in the family who is. I have not been able to do anything with it for a week. One more from my phone

One more day in November to survive, slush in coming down sideways and for sure I have no desire to be out there. At work I have lit the candles and only gone out to go and have my usual Thursday desert at the restaurant nearby. The shitty weather can look good if you crop it small enough 🙂

Thursday. The restaurant we daily use has Pea soup as one of the main dishes and crepes with ice cream, strawberry jam and whipped cream for desert every Thursday. That helps the survival weekly. Tasty!!

Wow,half way into November, this morning was so dark and the ground was covered in black ice, but fortunately I just had to walk to my car – less than 50 meters so I did not fall down. Later the day this wonderful thing called sun made it’s appearance too. I am counting the days as it is not that common to have that many sunny days at this time it of the year. That is not a fact statement, more like my own observation. I work full time so I have to take photos near our office. All around us, there are construction site’s and high cranes so those are my spotting’s for today
Walking back to the office from lunch I had to photograph this wonder once again (sun).

I am surviving it’s grey outside, but i have a new hair color so all is good! Is this not one of the most annoying questions, what should I do with my hair? This time I solved it this way. Blonder, shorter. The other question is, what should we make for dinner?
Do you agree with these very important questions or do you have better annoying and hard and more important questions?

Monday, I arrived to my work at 7:30 and the first thing I did is, I lit a candle. It created nice reflections on the mirror placed under the decoration. Mission accomplished. Then it was time to go and make a pot of coffee to start the day off…

Fathers day. In the morning I baked a carrot cake, I have to say it is rather delicious! After that I started preparing our Mexican lunch / dinner, not bad either. so it was rather good day food wise. Raining, so we spent the day inside. All this baking and preparing of food, I forgot to take any photos, until now. So here is a photo of a half eaten cake.

Yesterdays sunshine turned to rain, me and a huge amount of others went to the mall to escape the rain…these are taken on the way home. Quite notable is that this is also taken little after 3 PM… what a difference a day makes.

I was coming to the parking garage from grocery shopping to see sunshine and rain in November 
the afternoon. It was just after 3 PM and the sun was already going down.
