"How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but someone"

- Coco Chanel

Today I have had a Linda-day. As I am sick from work (shoulder injury) and not really supposed to do anything I knew I had to find something to do. Yesterday I cleaned the whole house (I took good breaks and didn`t strain my shoulder) and made dinner for my husband. This morning I felt a bit depressed. There has been alot going on lately..we have lost a family member..and everyone is a bit out of it. Including me. Therefor I decided to do something I haven`t done in a long time...I went to a matiné alone. I went to see "Coco avant Chanel" with Audrey Tatou (one of my favorite actresses) and I had such a relaxing time sipping my hot cocoa and watching a movie I would never get Carl-Magnus to see with me anyway. After that I strolled around a used bookstore for 45 minutes:) I NEVER have time to do that! It was so refreshing. Now I am back from physical therapy and I am getting ready to make some dinner before my wonderful husband comes home.

My tip to you:
Go out! Do something you enjoy doing all by yourself! I guarantee you will feel like a new person!
