Pictures from my home

These pictures are from my home in Savonlinna which is a small town quite i the middle of nowhere, having as it's charm arts, elderly, nature, religion, handiworks, tourism, practical professions and an emphazis on trusting one's own common sense while respecting fine culture. Savonlinna is a positive alternative for bigger towns and mostly does not offer their typical jobs, since the location of the town on a couple of quite small islands between two big lake areas is not benefical site for any bigger town (it would become two towns without the fascinating castle that the place s most known for).

* * *

I do not quite know why I put these here in sight, but I guess that there are two reasons: Firstly this district that I live in, Nätki suburb in Savonlinna town in Finland in north-eastern Europe, is somehow charming and kind of magnifient in style but dangerous to visit or live in. So people maybe wanna see what the homes here are like, but I guess that mine isn't typical, but anyway it is somehow Savonlinna and Nätki style. Secondly I (= miss Kaisa Hannele Tervola, Finland, North Europe) am somehow famous thinker/writer, see http://picturesfrommyhome.blogspot.fi/2018/02/links-to-my-texts.html , and so some may wanna see what kind of influence I am to kids and young people.
I am a 46 years (born August 1971) old Finnish woman. Finland is in north-eastern Europe. I am highly educated but interested in reaching higher still in skills and intelligence & wisdom, with the help of arts, religions, nature, healthy natural life, sports, feelings, wisdom of life and an interest in caring the world at large to a good state, to a good long-term future.

I change this to be here. It is already third (fourth) place, since to begin with I did not want to put these to internet, I just somehow did so, even though one ought not, since internet writing asks for distance or one begins to feel that it is nasty, disturbs everyday life, if it is too near one's own life.

I wrote a good pice of advice about maing home nice, see later in this blog.

28.11.2016  These pictures are from my homein Savonlinna. Savonlinna has under 30 000 inhabitants and is a countryside town in Etelä-Savo. Mikkeli town is 200km north from Helsinki and Savonlinna is 100km east from Mikkeli. In the half way there is a smaller village Juva and roughly the same amount east from Savonlinna Parikkala near the Russian border, but the nearest border crossing place is more south in Lappeenranta.
Savonlinna isknown for it's medieval castle Olavinlinnasta, which is from the time of Swedish rule, a Swedish architect (square forms) but build by Finns (more complex views, and if I remember right, the round towers too). Nowadays in July there is in the castle afamous, fine, big opera festival. A few years ago still there was a big famous art exhibition Retretti some 30kn east from Savonlinna inPunkaharju, but it ran out of money because of the huge costs. But there has still been some art exhibition in the district that aims at such.

So here some pictures from my home, but each one lives in a different way. At the time of the first puictures I had lived in Savonlinna fior seven years and last five of them in the Nätki suburb.

Letters from High Places  http://lettersthatihavegotten.blogspot.fi/

(poster of a famous Finnish painting from http://www.ateneum.fi/tule-meille/museokauppa/
(oma kirjoitukseni tuosta kuuluisasta Gallen-Kallelan maalauksesta http://harmaahapset.blogspot.fi/2016/02/kommunikaatiosta-nuorempien-kanssa.html  , costed there 8 euros + same sum postage in Finland; about Kalevala http://kalevalainenglish.blogspot.fi/)
The map is about the indigenous peoples of the world
The music instruments in the picture, which I play nowadays, are from Savonlinnan Soitinkulma (I gave an old good quality guitar to the instrument shop and got a beautifully sounding ukulele with 20 euros)
huonekalut enimmäkseen Espoosta kirpparilta tai halpakaupasta
The green plants mostly from Savonlinna's K-citymarket (for example the biggest palm tree i.e. traakkipuu, was there 12,5 euros one and a half years ago, they sell them mainly in the spring winter just after the cold winter weathers are gone and temperature near zero Celcius so that one can carry the plants unharmed outdoors what there is walking distance on the way home, since the plants do not bear freezing and they cannot keep warmth, but one can cover the plant by a big plastic bag that has indoor air inside )
Eri paikkakunnilla on ihan erioloista tavaraa, vaikka periaatteessa niitä kai myydään paikkakunnalta toiselle kysynnän mukaan, niin käytännössä kumminkin asuinpaikka määrää, minkätyylisiä tavarat ja huonekalut ovat. Nojatuolini ja laatikosto ovat Helsingistä, koristehyllyköt, tuolit (muttei sirkuspallit), radio ja kukkaviltti Espoosta, Savonlinnasta ompelukone, telkku, jalkalamput ja soittimen kuvan hyllyt sekä keittokomeron pikkupöytä. Helsingissä tavarat ym jättivät tilaa elämälle, joka soi tunnelmallisena yhteisön viisauden kantamana, mutta samalla jostain tuli elämänkielteinen urautuma, mikä lie jöö, joka pilasi elämän. Espoossa taas oli kaikki kivasti mutta sanoi samalla kkrraaahhhh ja oli liian hidastahtista. Savonlinnassa tyyli on mukavuudenhaluinen ja magnifient kai oopperan ja mökkeilyn myötä, mutta loppujen lopuksi jää aina miettimään, onko ruoka liian suurella painotuksella ihan vain typeryyttään. (Savonlinna lienee niitä paikkakuntia, joilla ihmiset käyvät shoppailemassa kauempaakin, jos tyylistä pitävät, esim. joku helsinkiläinen tuttu oli aikanaan käynyt päivämatkalla Savonlinnassa vaate- ym ostoksilla, muistelen. Se on kai yksi matkailu- ja taidepaikkakunnan vetonauloista. Mutta yöpyminen on eri juttu, kun täällä Savonlinnassa on vaikuttanut vaaralliselta. I guess that Savonlinna is oneof those places to which people come to shop from other towns sometimes, if they like the style.)

One room per inhabitant is luxory but more rooms makes one melancholic. To one room fit just best things and oe needs to throw away nasty things since there isn't any room for them. 

(Koiran takana pahvilaatikoita sirkustarvikehyllyssä.)

Maalaus seinällä oli jotenkin rankka,lieneekö aiheensa vuoksi vai koska oli niin näkyvällä paikalla. 

Vaihdoin seinälle omat vesivärimaalaukseni sieltä onnistuneimmasta päästä. http://akvarelliblogini.blogspot.fi

(Puunvärinen hylly on nuottihylly ja valkoinen maalaustarvikkeille.)

Olen tässä elellyt pieni alue kerrallaan, kun niin on vaihtelevampaa ja siis viihtyisämpää olla kotosalla.

http://musiikkipaivakirja.blogspot.fi

Kalevala syvällisenä monikerroksisena luettuna (kirjoitukseni Kalevalasta http://paratiisiteoria.blogspot.fi/2016/09/kalevalasta.html ) tuo tuollaista tiedostavuutta, samoin taiteet, luonto ja uskonto.

Puinen hevosen rintakuva Savonlinnan torilta puuveistosten ja tuohirasioiden myyjältä, sain alennuksessa 15 eurolla, vaikka se on kovin hieno ja ilmeikäs, kai liotetusta pinnalta hiukan kuivuneesta puusta taidolla veistetty. Se ei tosin tavallisesti ole pöydällä vaan paikallaan CD-hyllyn päällä.

Cultural influencies: Finland, Brazil and of course Savonlina and the capital district (where I am originally from) in Finland especially, plus ukulele / paradise islands. My characyeristic is that I have a good rational head along all the time in everything, which has led to me writing a lot. 

Tyylilajiin vaikuttaa myös eräopaskurssi ja maalaaminen sekä aiempi liikuntaharrastus.

Ikkunanäkymiä tuossa kuvituksena http://opisuomalaisuus.blogspot.fi/2014/02/vuodenkierto-ja-henkinen-hyvinvointi.html (eivät ole niin näyttäviä vaan yritin siihen kuvata sellaista, mikä olisi aika tavallista monessa paikassa, joten lukekaapa tuo sisustusohje, se tuo puihin näyttävyyttä, vaikka teillä olisi puita vähemmän! sisustusohje http://tunteetjatekemisentapa.blogspot.fi/2015/08/sisustamisesta-yms.html )

Tämä on Savonlinnan Nätkin kaupunginosassa Kaartilantie 15 B 24 (5th of August 2020, Could it be the number of the apartment, 24like Christmas Eve, why I have written at lenght about learning the skills and talents of Christmas gnomes http://learntalents.blogspot.com ) ja kolmen aika samanlaisen kerrostalon (tämä on kolmesta U:n muodossa olevasta kerrostalosta keskimmäinen) (This house and the neighbouring house Telakkatie 2 usually have some apartments available for rent, since there are quite many nice rental apartments in these houses. In Finland suburbs typically have forerst patches but their atmosphere depends on teh district, and town centers typically have trees and parks.) välinen pihametsikkö http://savolaisuudesta.blogspot.fi/2016/06/onnistunut-pihametsikko-malliksi.html , but this is dangerous district to live and to walk in: if you are interested in the area, please read about the danger of murders here, asuntoja välittää www.vuokraovi.com -> Savonlinna  (remember to build a good barricade to the door for evening and night, guard your foods and not to walk the dog late in the evening at all, live in harmony with the neighbourhood and Finnish culture, leave others too space to live in; nearest food shop seemed to have ´been selling spoiled food so I haven't used it, and when I lived next to it I sometimes heard gunfire from the shop in the evening, so it is also otherwise dangerous to visit, which is a problem in part of the food shops in Savonlinna). Savonlinnassa ovat kaupunginosat kukin omantyylisensä, vähän kuin ihan erityyliset paikkakunnat. In these houses the neighbours seem to behave like people with large capacity like honoured people and there are very few kids and almost not at all young adults.

5.2.2018   Nätki suburb is largely like grandparents' home. The people here are, like elderly and people with large capacity, considerate and good willing on the surface but have their tough side when needed. They are all the time skilled in the amount arts are but mostly just live in their homes here.

(Koristehyllykössä ja sen yläpuolella on uskonnollista esineistöä, among others a letter from the Vatican, which I got as a reply when I sent to the Pope my objective book about future pareadise http://2013paradise.blogspot.fi/2017/08/basics-of-my-paradise-theory.html .)

An apoartment house home can be of many different kind inside. Like if you see trees from the window, you can choose green or park like or town like view by choosing where the areas you spend time and walk along are mainly compared to the views from the windows, you can for example take a theme from a fascinating book or from some fascinating thing in mind to cultivate in how you arrange your home. Likewise you can indoors, for example with the help of second hand things, take a theme which can give a different spirit for the room: there are clothes, green plants, pictures, soft, work oriented, rough, decorations, summer cottage life, handiworks, music, the four seasons, pleasant living, practical things, books, computer pets, etc other themes that you are interested in. And by cultivating certain themes, by keeping themin sight, at good places, handy and with good spirit, you get a home with such spirit. But at the same time you need to be in the same way have a successfull pleasant view about the area you live in: this is a peaceful place between houses, green suburb or nice old times street view, area for families with samll kids, or the like.

13.3.2017   Luen Itä-Savoa ja MeNaisia sekä kuuntelevan vähän Radio Deitä. Lisäksi olen luontoharrastunut ja harrastan musiikkia ja olen opetellut maalaamaan. Niistä kaikista näyttäisi oppivan jotakin sisustamisesta, jotakin tenhoa. Savolainen elinympäristö tuo oman värinsä. Minulla on kaksi seurakoiraa, jotka myös vahtivat.

Syyskuun lopulla 2017, Kuva viime keväältä

22.8.2017   I bought a new curtain which isn't so very hot in the summer time. The pictures in this were somehow better for the quality of life than those of my old brown-white autumn flower curtain, which is the reason I chose this one.

28.9.2017   Helsingissä oli minulla turhan iso kirjahylly, en kaikkia kirjoja halunnut edes joskus. Nyt viimeiset viisi vuotta on ollut tämä yksi hyllyväli jäljellä, mikä on ihan hyvä siksi, että haluan jatkaa akateemiselta taustaltani muihin aihepiireihin. Mutta paljon enemmän tulee luettua lehteä kuin kirjoja, omasta hyllystä ei melkein ollenkaan.
Kitarasta on yksi kieli rikki, muttei ole tullut korjattua, kun soitan mieluummin ukulelea, joita minulla on kaksi.
Vaahtomuovikuutiot ovat koirien sirkustarvkkeita reilun kuuden vuoden takaa.

Vaatteita on paljon, kun en tiedä, mitä heittää pois, kun ei ole rahoja ostaa uusia tilalle.

6.10.2017   Huomasin, että soitin seinää vasten tuo elämään lättänyyttä ja saamattomuutta,toisin kuin jos näkyy puun oksia tms. Mutta ensin koetin näyttävälle kohden, mutta se oli kulkutien vieressä ja soittimella olisiollut putoamisvaara, niin siirsin sen heti pois ja takaisin entiselle paikalleen, mutta niin päin, että näkyi puu ja kerroatlon pääty sekä metsänreunaa kaukana, muttei se ollut nätti huoneessa poikittain, ja kesti aikansa ennen kuin keksin uuden paikan: keskellä huonetta pöydän ja palmujen välissä, kulkutien puolella lehtikori tms pitämässä kulkereitin kauempana, missä se on ennenkin ollut. Mutta hieno näkymä, kunpa tuo nyt sitten viisastuttaisi!   I noticed that a music instrument against the wall makes life flat and not able to get things done, unlike if while playing you can see tree branches or the like.

 I quote here my text from today, since there is here sometimes goblin like atmosphere,

"Goblin seems to be a different thing than earthling??, but if one does not yet know about these thungs, maybe goblins are interesting too. I guess that goblins connect to living somewhere, which brings to mind that can they be a ghost of a house repiars man, or even more likely an elderly man or even young man who is interesting in living pleasantly at home, who has been charmed by the atmosphere somewhere, which he has noticed when caught a glimpse when passing by, and he in his imaginationenjoys living in the hall of that home or goes to a cartoon box and just enjoys being there, especially the atmosphere, some kind of temptation in imagination, a source of pleasant feeling, maybe by the homaof an elderly couple, where the man thinks that they live nicely and there are wall and other parts of the apartment of which the man knows like a house repairs man, gets along with those things, has strenghts there, and then just enjoys the atmosphere like of a hand cover for touching hot kettle etc, and his wife maybe tries mostly to prevent him aand the goblin is sometimes as if insticntually perceived sklightly in sight but harmless, a little bit funny"

Koirani valittavat, että asunnossani käy joku tai joskus muutamakin ihminen, kun olen poissa: saman rapun ulkomaalainen nainen, joka ei voi kylmällä paljoa liikkua ulkona ja tarvitsee kumminkin vaihtelua, ja joskus muita, jotka haluavat tietää, miten Nätkillä tai Suomessa asutaan. Nätki on tavallaan tosi mummolamainen ja kesäisten oopperajuhlien kaupungissa taiteiden harrastamisen yleisyys tuo jotakin näyttävyyttä, omaa tenhoaan mm taitotason kasvun myötä. Alieella vaikuttaa olevan murhia niin, ettei joka asuntoon voi mennä käymäänkään.

 A piece of melody I made in October 

(7. June 2018, If I remember right, the H is with an accent, kind of lenghtened and emphasized, and not a staccato.)

Lokakuussa 2017

 Joskus aikanaan Helsingissä ompelemani tilkkutäkki (http://tunteetjatekemisentapa.blogspot.fi/2017/01/ompelemisesta.html). Olisin halunnut puna-keltakuvioisen vihreistäkoostuvalla taustalla, mutten silloin löytänyt vihreitä kankaita kuin kaksi. Kuusikulmio on nätti, ikään kuin pyöreämpi kuin suorakulmiot, ja pidän ampiaisista.

Tuossa tuo soittimen paikka keskellä huonetta ei ole vakiintunut, mutta palmut tekevät siihen ikään kuin omaa soppea soittimelle, mutten vieläole tottuut soittelemaan tuossa paikassa, joten soittimen sijainti hienoisesti varmaakin vielä elää. Jotenkin sijaintia helpottaa, kun on siinä vieressä jotakin aika mukavaa, mm villalankoja.

Viime vuoden joulukuussa opin kutomaan kunnollista ja harrastin kutomista ehkä kuukauden verran tai kaksi, ja nyt syksyllä olen taas osan aikaa kutonut. Nyt alku sujui lupaavasti mutta sitten tyrin kuviot. http://tunteetjatekemisentapa.blogspot.fi/2016/12/neulomisesta.html engl. http://learntalents.blogspot.fi/2017/10/knitting-tips.html Tuossa eka lapaseni viime joulukuulta, mutten kutomisesta niin kamalasti pidä.

2.11.2017

Lumi tuli aikaisin tänä vuonna. Sulaakohan vielä, nyt on muutaman päivän ollut, kuva viime päiviltä.
Sitä piti kirjoittamani, että minua ovat taiteilijakodit ja kesämökit tavanneet viehättää, kesämökeistä juuri taiteilijakotimaisuus ja toki käytännön elämä ikiaikaisen tapaan, että niistä var,aankin lähinnä tulee tyylivaikutetta, mutta olen oman versioni pyrkinyt tekemään, en matkimaan.

Taiteilijakodilla en tarkoita taiteellista esittävää vaan taiteille edullista ja syvälliselle viisaudelle edullista sekä käytännön toimeliaisuudelle ja tervehenkisyydelle edullista, missä luonto on yksi elementti.

Helmikuun alussa 2018

Keräsin tässä joskus kirjoituksiani ostoksissa onnistumisesta, säästäväisesti siis, yms blogiksi http://asiakkaanavain.blogspot.fi

If some think that blue isn't according to feelings so mcuh that it could connect to flowers, I must say that civilized ways are well thought of and good for life, so ghood for feelings too. And among other things the rule "Live and let others live!" http://finnishskills.blogspot.fi/2012/10/live-and-let-others-live.html brings room for feelings, but is somehow clumsily said, mostly a well working thoguht. (Here the bachground of the curtain is bluish green, brings to my mind paintings and schooled knowledge about plant species, while the flowers are white and bluish red.)

Verhoista http://eroonmasennuksesta.blogspot.fi/2017/07/verhot-ja-elamansisalto.html

Kukkakuvio voi tietenkin olla vain kaunis, tunteidenmukainen tunnelmallinen luontoaihe tai koristekuvio, mutta useasti se myös osin viittaa naiseen, jonka sanotaan olevan kuin kukka. Näitä on kahta tyyppiä: on perustyyppi, henkilö, joka luo yhteisöön mahdollisuuksia tunteidenmukaiseen kauniin sivistyneen moraalin mukaiseen elämään ja elää itsekin tunteidenmukaisesti, luo siis niitä mahdollisuuksia muillekin, ja sitten on niitä muita, jotka hetkittäin tai useinkin käyttävät noita mahdollisuukisa hyväkseen mutteivät itse niitä luo, kenties vain loisivat ja käyttävät asemansa pahantekoon, mutta he eivät siis ole se, mitä kukilla tarkoitetaan, sillä, että nainen on kuin kukka, vaan heidän yhteydessään sellainen ilmaus johtuu siitä, että he yrittävät suorittaa tuon toisen naistyypin mainittuja piirteitä saadakseen tämän ansaitseman aseman, vaikkeivät itse toimi siihen asemaan sopivasti, eivät kanna riittävästi vastuuta. Jos taas yrittää siihen samaan kauniiseen suuntaan, esim. matkimalla tunteille tilaa luovaa, muttei ole kyllin taitava, niin on kai jonkinlainen kukka, ehkei ihan yhtä hehkeä eikä suorastaan kukkameri. Toki myös asiat ja aatteet voivat luoda mahdollisuuksia tunteidenmukaiseen elämään, mitä kukilla symboloida.

Muutama päivä myöhemmin päivällä ja iltapäivällä hämärän alkaessa

Siirsin tästä tekstinpätkän sisustamista koskevaan kirjoitukseeni http://tunteetjatekemisentapa.blogspot.fi/2015/08/sisustamisesta-yms.html

My old video channel from the time I lived in Espoo http://www.youtube.com/khtervola about a thousand videos

A list of my blogs you can find from the mainpage, by clicking the three horizontal lines and then from the pop up window my name or picture.

20.2.2018   Spring side of winter but not yet spring, in the morning it was -20 Celcius degrees cold but the sun shines sometimes already.

23.2.2018   Again in the morning -21Celsius butsunshine too. Cold weather goes now better and soon it willbe spring. In the picture my dog is under a ventilation window and thinks of living in the cold.

25.2.2018   I made some advices for too squeezed people about broadening one's possibilities inlife http://mythoughtsaboutnews.blogspot.fi/2018/02/for-too-much-squeezed-people.html

9.5.2018   I tried to make a traditional wooden bird.

The coin is Sibelius (very famous old Finnish composer) special coin 2€

5.6.2018   About how to make such wooden birds, but the advices are in Finnish:
http://tunteetjatekemisentapa.blogspot.com/2018/05/lastulinnusta.html
The usefulness of this kind of handiworkspresupposes the way of thinkinh taught in my thinking course http://quickerlearning.blogspot.fi and Finnish kind of view of the world, see the beginning of my blog http://Finnishskills.blogspot.fi , plus healthy kind of ways of doing and living, see the long list of advices about them in the same blog http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2015/11/healthy-ways-of-living.html . And as always present in Finnish traditions is a knowledge and understanding of the Finnish national ephos Kalevala http://Kalevalainenglish.blogspot.fi (It is very important that the translator should be a Finn, fully Finnish.) .

5th April 2019   I am making to my long text about living wisely the four seasons http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html short pieces of melodies to the spring part, since I did not find music videos that would teach the basic skills of living the spring. Here is a piece of melody for the spring winter, for making the landscape more interesting looking

 I composed today three short pieces of music to my text about the seasons, to it's April part. This one is the best: the awakening vigour of life in trees when snow melts:

21.5.2019   "In the summer having made indoors nice affects one's mood a lot indoors. I guess that it ought to be so that the summer's cool weathers feel cool and hot days hot, so that kind of heat regulation, which at least for me means something with strong colours like of those who like hot and bigger areas quite light and other things fitting together with it but not so striking the eye, for example grey and brown. There ought to be not masses of tiny things like papers at all, especially not near the window, but instead clear, not so demanding, somehow flourishing, bringing a good mood. But I do not know this so well, but women may often in teh summer have a not so good mood because of this, to which helps to spend lots of time outdoors.

(The picture is from the latter half of May from my sunside apartment, which's temperatures maybe now correspond to ordinary Finnish summer temperatures.)"

28th of June 2019   My Japanese spitz died three weeks ago, on a hot day. He was already eleven and half years old and too fat.
My other dog, the apricot poodle is an independent character and already ten years old, and has adaoted well, even though our daily life changed alot since the Japanese spitz kept company to us all the time and he also was not sporty at all. He also had an interest in curing and seemed skille din it http://curingguesses.blogspot.com/2018/12/index-with-cure-suggestions-after-word.html 
Here is a pice of melody I composed a little bit over a week ago to help other who mourn the death of their pet. After almost two weeks it seemed good to take more distance, to wish well and to have an idealistickind of polite picture of the pet which had died.

29th June 2019   I took a picture of my poodle, some three weeks after my Japanese spitz died. My poodle slept on a pile of clothes and blankets that he had kind of rearranged.

The street this house is on has an old times' army name, which is at the same time somehow good life and somehow harsh. There used to be two food shops and a bar near by, but now there is only one food shop with not so good quality food, I cannot use it, and a new bar after a long pause. But so people who live here tend to care foods well, kind of for free time and good life, for peacefulness too, and for home likedness since the district seems dangerous, and I guess that for to support the peace arts need. At least part of the people appear religious. There is nature as an element in the living environment, somewhat like admiring pet's magnifient coat or the like. The town is largely centered around the July's opera festival, but year around. Quite many of the inhabitants are old and like the district in some way. The town is largely a tourist town. All around is the lake district's nature with summer cottages too, but living here it appears dangerous.

26th of January 2020  I have been composing of winter weathers too. Last December I composed for example these (The hand written is titled Raining snow, streetlights here and there) The last one got words this year, according to what the weather brought to mind in December.

https://composingmelodies.blogspot.com/2019/09/how-composer-hears-music-in-hisher-head.html

5th of February 2020
Me and my apricot poodle haven't been left as much in peace this autumn and winter. One reason is that we have a new neighbour that is intent on destroying peace of living, and another is that we no longer have the whote spitz that was a guard dog too and very likable character. Me and my poodle live more like in a landscape while the Japanese sputz was mostly homebound, took things to his heart but did not seem to look far, think of consequences so much. But on the other hand I have still been composing, this time about the winter weathers and there has been sapce for that, kind of a place for me in just that. And my poodle has his more intellectual social relationships and a wider area natural.

Maybe a little bit over a week ago, my poodle said he wished for a feather and an indian role of longer walks wirh nature around. So I tried an indian feather in his head, but soon took it away.

Two pictures from today. My poodle often waits long before he eats and today he had already eaten sausages.

21th of February 2020   The spring seems to be early this year, but there may still be cold weathers coming.

Since last autumn Banjo has had an own blog https://villakoirabanjo.blogspot.com/ butthat caused problem of vetenarians attacking it, thinking it having too much position but it is already 11 years old and a nice intelligent gentleman like dog. Now we are waiting for the end of February to know for sure that there are no very cold weathers coming so that I can clip it's coat without danger of it freezing.

19th of March 2020   A picture of just washed and trimmed Banjo from the end of February when there was no longer danger of very cold winter weathers.

24th of March 2020   The common factor of where I live and even of the whole town is opera, much like "next block from opera" sounds like.

28th of August 2020   Before the summer I changed the place of the bed, so as to get more fresh air. This is a picture taken in the morning.

The summer was unbearably hot in my sunside apartment. Now it is already cooler and nicer.

 12.1.2021   The street here has an old times army name, and sometimes from outdoors in the evening one can hear bangs like sounds of different kinds of guns and sometimes it feels like someone there with agun is waiting to shoot someone seen through the window, so avoiding being shot is one thing I have giotten some practy´´ice in. But this is the third storey, so sitting down typically removes the danger of being shot. Likewise from outdoors there are only some places from which one could shoot in. The neighbouring house is near, so I have a curtain in the closestr window on their side, snce it isn't nice to live in an aquarium. For the first new years I cheked where there is the danger of being shot and placed my cushioned chair so that there was no danmger of being shot, and if needed I could spend the whole evening there with computer, newspaper, musical instrument, tv, etc and with the possibility to turn lights off from there. Typically when there have been bangs, I have thought it good to sit for a while so that its is bot so nice or easyto wait to shoot,and then go past the dangerous places quickly and go on with my life. But lower storeys would not ha´ve been so easy. The walls of the house are stonel like hardm and curtains matter too.
