sigh

I got a bad message that will affect our economy (which is rather strained as it is) in a very bad way. It makes me feel down, but I handle that best with just my husband and family around so I don't want any phone calls (except that I need to talk to herzeloyde).

Sewing something

The best help against feeling down is sewing something. And not what I need to sew for the kids, because while finishing it makes me feel accomplished it doesn't make me happy in the way I need now. And not something modern, because it's too complicated and I have enough of that anyway, and it means bloody zippers. But maybe something totally unnecessary from the 16th century? I just wonder what fabric I should use; a lot speaks for the red velvet, since it takes up a lot of space, but maybe Valeria wants it for her gown. I think I'd better phone her and ask (she's with her dad).

calling armillary!

armillary, since I feel like shit I would greatly appreciate it if you called A and K and talked about Sunday. I don't have the energy to do anything right now.

The day keeps getting worse

For various, legitimate, reasons the rest of the gang planning to go to Norway to haugtussa's concert have decided not to go. This means that I will have to try to find some way to go there on my own, which means probably leaving Göteborg one day before the actual concert, which in turn means finding a babysitter for Maja on Saturday too. It will also be very expensive which is even more an issue now after I got a letter that my sick leave will be cut to only 25%, my dole days will end soon and I only got 20% job at the university.
F**K! I don't know what to do with all this shit happening.

ETA I couldn't check train tables because they were impossible to find and flights are between 5000 and 8000 SEK, which is more than half my monthly salary. So that's no solution.
