House work and stuff

Well Eurovision was a total disaster for Finland as always. It is also long time since I´ve seen a Eurovision so boring. There was no excitement in waiting for who´s gonna win. I would have preferred Iceland to win instead of Norway, I didn´t really like the song at all. At least we saw Eurovision in good company after some nice BBQ.


The day before Eurovision we had a yammi Mexican team dinner at our friend´s place. Tequila is evil but Corona is ok even though I usually don´t like beer.


To continue on the Mexican team we ate dinner at Cantina West the next week in order to celebrate our friend´s birthday. I love the interior in this restaurant and the food is yummy too. The restaurant must be huge since everytime we go they take us to a new place, terass, second floor, celler and so on, I never realized it was so big.




I think the birthday girl´s nephews stole the show during the dinner though;

Finally we also started renovating our house in Liljendal. We bought a BBQ and invited some friends over :-) The result so far is a piece of new floor in the second floor...jeee! :-D


Thanx Martin for your expertise help! we couldn´t have done it without you :-) And Cia and Nalle too for lifting stuff and giving ideas.


Little Vasco also enjoyed the house:-)



Here´s a picture from starting the floor work, unfortunetly I didn´t have a pic of the laminate acctually installed;

Maybe next weekend I´ll have time to start painting the wall some other colour than the yellow you can see on the pic.

You have to also take a peek at Cia´s blogg, she put up some nice videos of the boys working on emptying the room;

Vappu, Cooper Test and Eurovision

Vappu came and went again and it was suuper nice as always. We were lucky with the weather as well. We also had the first party in our balcony which was a great success! :-)

Today we had a sports day at work for the ones who wanted to join. You could choose between running Cooper test or doing a walk test. I did the Cooper with three other girls from our team. It´s been some time since I last been jogging so I tried to train some for the last three weeks because I knew the test was coming up....but three weeks is not much if you want to suddenly be in a excellent running shape. Anyhow, I´m quite happy with my result in the end, I run 2270 meters in 12 minutes, and that´s supposed to be a "good" result for a normal person. But well I´ve run better in high school.

We also had some test for the balance, strenght and some machine tests for knowing the fat percent of your body and stuff. That was wierd, you stood on a metal thingy barefoot that looked just like a normal scale and this machine suddenly knew your stuff like your body weight, fat percent, fat mass, muscle mass, water percentage in your body and bone mass ! I wonder how accurate it is really....well I was happy to see that the scale thought my body weight was 3 kg less than at my parents place :-P Know I also know I should consume 5309 kcal per day and that my metabolic age is 13....interesting... The fact that my degree of obesity is in minus percentage I will take as an encouragement to eat more sweets during coffee break ;-)

I don´t like too much the Finnish Eurovision song this year...too much disco for me! But;
Good luck to Finland in Eurovision semifinal tonight anyway:
