Welcome to Anna’s Diary

Yes, it is a sporty holiday. Two hours of exercise today again. Strength and spinning. I need to regain my shape. I have always liked training of some kind, and I envy and admire those who participate in for example the Olympics. Yes, I am jealous because I know I will never have the possibility to participate. Just watch.

Molly has taught me how to do selfies. I don’t like to do that, but due to the Corona virus, that is the only possibility. She got me out of my safe comfort zone. It is nice to have a mini blog on Instagram. I will go training tomorrow as well, but then I will rest for the weekend. I am going to see Molly and Lady. And that means dog walks. I mentioned Joe Cocker earlier, so I share some summer music. It has changed and it is dark already at 21 o’clock in the evening. Here, a summer song.

C’est n’est pas grave la grève. Jeux de mots. To play with words is very common in France. It is difficult and you have to think a lot. Currently I think a lot of languages. To keep my mind active so I won’t forget how to write. French is a difficult and beautiful latin language. Maybe not to speak because you can say almost anything. It is just that you make an attempt to speak French. To show that you are interested in France. Writing, on the other hand, is very complicated, but fascinating.

I am spending my vacation at home doing work out. Today I did two hours and I am exhausted. I do not understand, but it was impossible to resist chocolate afterwards. Absolutely no balance. Reading some news and I have followed Alexej Navalnyjs. I am surprised. The medical doctors have confirmed that he was poisoned. Interesting. The medical books are different in Russia compared to Germany. He is right now under protection of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Treated with the deadly night shade Atropa belladonna. A too high dose leads to eg hallucinations, so it is a delicate balance. His condition is serious but not life threatening.

I am returning to French. French music with singer-songwriter Françoise Hardy.

I do a lot of walking, and sometimes I go by subway, and sometimes with bus. I carry my medical face mask when needed. Only for distancing. It is not a 100% protection. A reminder of that the Corona virus is still present. I like to live in a city. This busy feeling. There are people everywhere. In the countryside I have sweetie and cutie. I would like to bring Molly to Stockholm like the woman in this music video above. But Molly has to wait til the vaccin is available. I listen to Coe Cocker when I think of Molly.

There are some new subway carriages. They are a little different. I think of London. A special feeling. Being in Stockholm but it feels like London. I have walked some today. Been to some shops. Found chocolate. People are rather good at distancing and that makes me feel more at ease. It was a sunny day and I could enjoy the feeling of being in a city. I also had the privilege to see my previous neighbours and that made me happy. Sharing this walking song. I might have played it before, but it is such a nice tune and deserves to be replayed.
