Diary
Another dream has come true! I finally have my roof top terrace!! My Sweetie and I found the perfect place for us the other day. It has one more room than we've got now, which means that we can have a guest room. It has a bigger balcony than we have now and a more proper kitchen, with a utility room AND it's got an 80 m2 roof terrace! It is a little bit further from the sea, but we still have a sew view, and it is still only a 20-25 minute walk down to the beach. There is a comunal pool though, and I've got my roof.
Friends of ours live in the same complex, but in the buildning next to us, they too have a roof terrace. I can feel a lot of sun tanning and barbequeing ahead of me.
So now I am packing! And we are moving sometime during the easter weekend. In only a few days time. Woohoo!
I took a suitcase full of my clothes up there yesterday. Now, it's uphill most of the way and even the suitcase wasn't heavy heavy it was not to play with at the end. Finally there I got up to the hallway outside our flat and I couldn't get in. I tried every key fifty times at least, but none of them would even fit in the hole, so I texted Sweetie and asked him how many keys he had. Turns out he had 6 keys and I only had 5. Crap. I put the suitcase in the storage room and walked back home. After a couple of hours Sweetie came home and we compared keys, and the key that he had and I didn't was not a door key put a post box key. Hmmm... Turns out I'd been trying to get into the wrong flat........ LOL
Sweetie and I went up there with a few more things later last night and got in, strange what the right key can do when it's the right door..... :D
Enjoy your lives out there! I am enjoying mine!
Love

Diary - Birthdays
A lot of people don't like their birthdays, I guess because it reminds them they are getting older. I'm not like that though. I like my birthday, and I like my age. Every year is better than the year before in my world. Every year I have grown wiser and smarter, one way or another.
So far today I have stayed in bed, playing silly games on facebook, watching telly and answering congratulations from a lot of friends and family. I love it when people congratulate me! And I am grateful for every single one of them.
Eventually I will get up of bed and do some exercise, probably the 20 minutes Zumba Express and an 8 minutes tae bo exercise. I have been doing them for the last couple of days, it doesn't take any time and I plan to keep doing them every weekday from now on. I need it and I like it.
Tonight we are going out for dinner at a very lovely restaurant in Fuengirola, called La Farola, with some friends. One of them has a birthday today too so it will be a joyful evening, as always when we meet.
My favourite ice hockey team, Brynäs, is playing a very important game tonight and as a present to me I am sure they will win. And I say thank you now, for the unexpected but great news I will be getting sometime during the day.
Have a great time out there. I am.
Love

Diary
I had a brilliant day yesterday! We went to some firiends house for a roof terrace BBQ in the afternoon sun. The men (?) played videogames down stairs while us girls stayed up on the terrace, chatting and drinking Tinto de Verano on loungers all afternoon, until the sun set and it got a bit cold. See, that is what I want! I roof terrace! It has been my dream since I first came to Spain and I will have one in the next place I live, or I will not move at all! Roof terraces are not only for the sunny days, they are also for the warm evenings and nights. Imagine to lay up there looking up on the black sky where the stars are shining.
I want to have BBQs with friends and take advantage and enjoy the weather where I live. I want to dance up there, in my bikini. So, yes, I will have a roof terrace. Soon!
Today will be another brilliant day, I've got some bread (very low carb of course) in the oven, some washing in the machine. I will do some Zumba and clean the house. After a nice shower I will take the train, where I will do some writing, to IKEA where I will walk around on my own and look at what furniture I want for when we find our roof terrace place, and I will do some writing. Hopefully my Sweetie will turn up with a friend and we will walk around some more and hopefulle get a book case, or a cupboard for our livingroom. And I will take the train back home, while the guys go by car, and do some more writing.
Yes, this will be another brilliant day indeed.
Oh, and hopefully I will get a call from an agent saying we got a viewing on our dream house this week! Dream house being a place with a roof terrace and plenty of indoor space. :D
I wish all of you out there a brilliant day as well! Be well, love yourself, have fun and enjoy your life to the fullest!

Diary - A Word For My Friend
There is a strange feeling over my life today. I very dear friend of mine decided to end his life yesterday. He was the warmest, most loving and caring person, always spreading love and laughter around him. A whole little town, and more, is in chock and grief right now. I spent last night crying my eyes out, from love for my friends, love for my friends who found him and for the people who were closest to him. For the world's loss of a great man.
I look out the window and I see the bright sun shining warmly over the glittering Sea and I know that my friend is somewhere in the neighbourhood. Sitting on a balcony, drinking a beer, laughing about life.
I consider myself lucky having been his friend, having him as mine. I am grateful that I put a smile on his face and love in his heart the last time I saw him, in january. I am grateful I got to see him and spend some time with him. I am grateful for all the wonderful words he wrote to me after that day.
He told to me that I am missed and loved back home. I tell him now, that he is missed and loved back here.
I don't ask why, or how. The answers to those questions wouldn't make any difference now. The only thing that matters is that we should remember him for who is was, honour him by showing our love to our friends and family, enjoy our lifes as he couldn't but wanted to, and be as happy as we possibly can.
Take care of yourselves out there! Feel the love and spread it! Let it fly! Laugh! And make your dreams come true!
We miss you, Teddybear! <3
