Pidän jonkin aikaa taukoa, koska synnytys lähestyy, ja palaan takaisin kunhan taas kerkeän ja jaksan. Nauttikaa sillä aikaa parin vuoden takaisista Madeira-kuvista. Itse yritän rauhoittua ja keskittyä tulevaan koitokseen ja järjestellä kotia vauvaa varten.
I'll keep a short break because the birth is approaching and I'll come back when I have the time and energy again. Enjoy the Madeira photos taken a couple of years ago while I'm gone. I try to calm down and concentrate on the labour and arrange the home for the new baby.

Ihania kuvia :) Itsekin olen ajatellut, että Madeiralla olisi kiva joskus käydä.
Tsemppiä ja voimia sinulle loppuraskauteen ja uuden vauvan tuloon!
Onnea synnytykseen! Kerrohan sitten..
Paratiisilta näyttää Madeira, sinne siis joskus!
very nice pictures! Other people told me the same about the island. it's supposed to be really wonderful.
glad you liked me posting your post. no, you english is fine, don't worry!
inspite of having spoken english most of my life, I still make many stupid mistakes. so yours is definitely not bad at all! i hope many people will read that post, because it's very important that people become much more considerate towards others!
I wish cross my fingers for you and hope that everything will go well. but I think it will, because the second birth is always faster and easier. You are doing in with the same husband, so he already knows what to expect and can support you plus you have the possibility to get an epidural, which I personally think is also much better for the baby than laughing gas, because the child gets spared of the traumatic experience of the mother breathing in the gas.
So i am quite sure it's gonna go very well, smooth and fast for you this time round!
Re my books: you see we have moved here 3 years ago and since then everything in my life has been and still is in a transition period. The big farm is still under renovation. the gallery still not re-established and I have cancelled my old contracts re my books. I still have some of my old german books somewhere, but currently i am still proofreading the others, waiting to get some legal matters sorted out before I can once again go ahead and have them out on the market. a bit anoying, because absolutely everything is still hanging in the air!
i will post a list of them, once they are all available again on my shop-blog.
Just to take out some suspense:
2 are women's novels about two ladies, one in Scandinavia, one in germany, corresponding about their lives and problems and hopes, there are a number of non-fiction-books and the most recent one (the one you read about) is a series of action-stories about a former female soldier and her so very differnt husband, who in spite of her past just want a simple life in peace. But it never comes to that, they constantly get wrapped up in new adventures and demanding challenges!
See you around, Annie, i'm looking foreward to seeing the pictures of your new lovely little one!
Upea lomakohde jossa näemmä voi RENTOUTUA :D
Be cool! Good luck!
Ihania kuvia! Toivotan oikein helppoa ja rauhallista synnytystä!
Thank you, everyone!
Aivan ihanalta näyttää Madeira! En ole itse siellä ollut, mutta en panisi vastaan, jos minut sinne lähetettäisiin ;) Näyttää oikealta keitaalta.
Ja sinun kuvasi ovat upeita. Jäin sitä erästä orkideakuvaa oikein tuijottamaan. Se oli niin erikoinen: Mikä ihme "ylimääräinen hyytelö" siinä kasvoi?!
Hekumallista heinäkuuta sinullekin ja tsemppiä synnytykseen!
Onpa kauniita kuvia! Toivon sinulle kaikkea ihan parasta edessä olevaan koitokseesi!
Photos are beautiful Annie!
And good luck!
Thanks!
Elegia: Jos tarkoitat vihreää orkideaa, mustavalkoinen osa on tahmea siitepölymöykky.
