Freedom!

Today was my last day working as a cleaner. The job was tough, sweeping floors for 4-5 hours is a pretty good work-out, but it is also pretty straining for your shoulders and arms, your back and your knees, all areas where problems have started to appear lately...So tomorrow morning I'm treating myself to a massage!

Although I didn't care too much for the job itself I did quite like the atmosphere and the people who I cleaned around. But I do wonder what it says about me that the people I got along with the best were 36+ aged males...? Ok, so there weren't many women working there either but still. This is how lovely I looked:

But no more! From now on I'll be cleaning dressed like this:

Or something along those lines...So now I've got two days off before I start my new job. I'm getting a bit nervous for it but I should be fine - after a few weeks or so. I hope. But I'm sure it'll be a whole lot better than cleaning toilets.

First 40's-style hairdo attempt

Yesterday my H&M package arrived in the post and I was pretty exited. But then I remembered that I only ordered some boring basics in boring basic colours. I am way to sensible when bying new clothes, always thinking about what other pieces of clothing it will match and how "timeless" it is, in other words, most of the stuff is pretty basic.

Anyway, here I'm wearing my new and very exiting gray tights. Ehem. Also a black skirt and top, second hand, and the vest I bought at the Juthbacka market. Shoes are my grandmothers old and the 8mm camera belonged to my grand-dad until I um, borrowed it.

Inspired by Miriam I spent an hour trying to get an acceptable looking hairdo. I kinda like it, even though it didn't turn out exactly how she made it. My hair is a bit too short for this aswell so I improvised a bit and made my own rat-thingy out of some foam hair-curlers. Not too bad for a first timer eyh? Still could use a bit more practice though.

On a different subject, I now have only one day left at my cleaning job! How strange. I then have two days off to recover before my new job starts. On my first day in between jobs I've booked myself an appointment for a massage to really get the cleaning out of my system, hah. Tidying my flat won't feel like such a massive task anymore when I'm used to cleaning for 6-7 hours a day...
