I am fine!

It has been at least two weeks since we've seen a moose...

I wonder, where they are.

I guess they are finally able to find enough to eat

IN

the forrest and

don't have to come out so much anymore.

We haven't seen any deer lately either.

I was out riding this morning,

we did see two Cranes on a big ploughed field.

We could get pretty close,

until they took off.

Didn't bring the camera though...

Those birds are so HUGE!

What a wonderful sight.

This afternoon we took a drive out to the coast.

Of course NOT without the camera...

The farmers are working hard these days.

Most fields are ploughed and seeds planted.

The weather has been perfect, the fields are dry this spring.

I was told that last spring

many of the heavy tractors got stuck

in the mud and it was hard to get the job done in time.

I think no one has reason to complain this year.

At the beach...

The wind pushed waves towards the shore,

sunlight reflected magically on the water.

It was loud and powerful.

:))

We really enjoyed the time here in this area.

It has been 6 months since our arrival in Sweden.

We love the landscape here,

the province Halland has been a fantastic home for us.

Yes, I am writing in past tense...

I didn't want to write - or even think - too much

about our future plans

because

I am so incredibly excited and

as long as we haven't signed the contract,

I fear something could happen

and then I would be very disappointed.

I am writing

about our big, new adventure,

about the fact that we will be moving soon,

about the horse farm that we will be renting.

We will meet the owners again on Saturday,

hopefully we will all be able to agree on the contract.

Saturday is the big day.

Or maybe it is just an ordinary Saturday.

I could choose to put extra stress on myself,

but I really want to stay focused.

I could choose to drive myself crazy,

but I really want to stay calm.

On one side

it is perfectly normal to be nervous,

on the other side

there is absolutely no reason to be nervous.

I want to be able to relax in this situation,

I don't want to spoil this wonderful, exciting and sweet time until Saturday.

I want to be able to enjoy the whole process, every minute of it.

And I want to be able to let go of the fact that it might not happen after all...

Again!

All I have is the NOW.

Yesterday is gone.

Tomorrow is not yet written.

We'll see how I'll get through the next days...

I'll be fine.

I am fine!
