Brené Brown: Listening to shame

I posted Brené's talk on vulnerability last february. It has gotten a HUMONGOUS amount of hits on TED  and YouTube. If you've not yet seen it....please take the time to listen to it. It had an enormous inpack on me and now TED.com have now posted another talk with Brené, now on shame. *yay*

Again...a wow video! Watch it!!

Love&Light,

Smaller all of a sudden?

OK, I really should be in bed by now but...posting my previous post I noticed the font size being kinda small on the blog... Has it always been that small? Is it too small?? I prefer smaller font size to bigger... Blogs with huge font annoy me to bits and make me wanna scream I'm not blind! ;)

The most annoying thing is that the font size is not the same in 'the blog posting page' as it is once I've finally posted it onto the blog itself...??? Hmmm.... :/ :\

I think I should be able to adjust the setting somewhere...if ya'll find it to be too small.
Let me know alright? :) :) :)

Everything's OK

Just what I needed!

Stressed out, panicking over this house selling nonsense, life, motherhood, studies etc. and so on. Out of "nowhere" ;) ;) this little thing appeared and let me exhale in the midst of all this chaos... :) Won't you try it out too??

Thankful,

House tour!

So, ScabbyHouse is finally out on the market and interest seems to be gooood. We had a first (terrible!) offer made on it before it had been out for a full day...

Here's photos of not-looking-too-ScabbyHouse, taken last Friday. :)

Front of our little scabby house with garage at the back.

Welcome!

 Our, never-ever this tidy, hallway with stairs down at the back of photo and entry to kitchen on  the left.

The kitchen, from hallway.

Kitchen, opposite direction. Opening to the right, in the middle takes you through to out little bathroom and the bedroom. From bedroom you get to living room and back to hallway.

GREAT fun for kiddies to run round and round and round 'til someone runs into kitchen island or similar hard object and tears follow! ;)

Living room with fire place and ancient TV (both uncommon in the most common of Swedish houses ;)). There's the bedroom and hallway too. :)

Upstairs bedroom.

'Playroom' downstairs. Little Man's bedroom to the left.

Little Man's bedroom.

Across the back hallway you'll find Little E's room. Door on right take you to 'laundry room' and back to again to the 'playroom'.

And there ya have it! My sweet, in need of some TLC, ScabbyHouse. :) Hope you enjoyed the tour! :) :) :)
Love&Light,

Sometimes...

Sometimes I wonder... What will it be like when ScabbyHouse is sold, all the tidying and anxiety over what-will-come-next is over, when the kiddies and I have our own place, have settled into our routines...? What then?? Will Life finally catch up with me and knock me off my feet or is there actually such a thing as 'smooth sailing'...?

I'm...I wanna write scared or worried (but I'm not!) ... I'm concerned (?) that there isn't such a place of Peace. That "struggle" is my constant companion... And I don't mean not in a Martyr kind of way but in a I-can't-stop-myself-from-growing kinda way and...

Is there (can there be) Growth 

without some kind of Struggle...?? 

The prospect above is both scary and intriguing. What else is out there...?? Yet, my whole Being is crying out for Peace, smooth sailing...! But.. .if I get to that place of Peace... Will "reality" hit me? Knock me over?? Will I crumble? Be the Needy one...? :\

Pondering,
