I was supposed to write you how I had a lovely and cozy day, and how you need to listen your body when it’s tired, and take some time to relax. That’s really how I felt, like spending the day in my PJ’s and sleep off all the sleep debts from past month. But my day didn’t turn out as planned, home office/relaxing day is postponed maybe for Friday. I just cleaned my home a bit, took these pictures and ran out of the door to take care of some things, went to see an apartment, then to meet a friend, then to the gym, then quickly supermarket before closing (oh their angry faces when entering the last-minute), then banana pancakes and here I am. Still tired, still in need of that relaxing. Luckily I can go to sleep after writing this. Crazy how you’d want to relax but how it’s almost forbidden, well I actually had some sudden things to do, but still I need to fight the guilt that comes from relaxing. It is needed for god’s sake! Good night now you all, I’m answering comments and all tomorrow after waking up. Kisses!
Oli tarkoitus kirjoittaa näiden kuvien yhteydessä, miten rentouttava keskiviikko mulla oli. Miten väsyneeltä olo tuntui, ja miten pidin kotitoimisto/rentoutumislöhöilypäivän. Mutta vielä mitä. Ehdin vähän siivoilla, napata pari kotikuvaa, ja piti juosta jo ovesta ulos, ensin erääseen tapaamiseen, sitten katsomaan yhtä asuntoa, siitä tapaamaan kaveria, sitten suoraan salille ja viimeisenä asiakkaana ruokakauppaan sulkemisminuutilla. Sori vain kampin koon myyjät, yritän petrata mun ajoituksissa! Nyt banaanipannarit syöty ja taas jätin postauksen kirjoittamisen nukahtamishetkeen, kun pää lyö tyhjää ja melatoniinin vaikutus jo tuntuu. No, ehkä huomenna paremmin. Hullua miten haluaisi rauhoittua ja rentoutua paremmin, mutta tuntuu ettei joko ehdi tai sitten ei tarpeeksi halua ehtiä ja priorisoida, tehokkuusajattelusta pitää vähän opetella pois. Rentoutuminen, kropan kuuntelu, ja välillä aivan täysi laiskottelu on vain pakollista. Varaan sille vielä tältä viikolta päivän hemmetti vie. Nojoo pitää välttää kiihtymistä ja muita vahvoja tunteita ennen nukkumaanmenoa, haha näin kuului jokin googlettamani vinkki unettomuuteen. Vastailen huomenna kommentteihin ja muuta, nyt hyvää yötä! <3

I have just waken up now. I, however, don’t feel good because I was on duty at my working place, hospital, last night….I hope you can sleep well….Good night, Marian!!!
Marianna says
Thank you Kenny, it’s getting better for me all the time 🙂 I can imagine your work mixes up the sleep pattern, hope you’ll find a way to make it work!
Nora says
Hey, I read your blog for quite some time now. I just recently figured it’s more than two years and I always like how you achieve that balance between cleanliness and some kind of girly,romantic touch. I’m moving in two weeks thus no time to relax here too!
I’m always inspired by your room decor posts and I wanted to thank you for being such a great Idol.
Keep up the good work!:)
Marianna says
Aw that’s so nice, made me smile 🙂 Exactly how I’d want my home to be! Good luck with moving, a big project but after getting through it hopefully worth it! x
Simona Moon says
Such a lovely home!

I’m so in need of some time to relax too… My work is quite simple, I basically just need to type, but doing that for 9 hours everyday is really exhausting… Hope you find some time to relax and recharge your batteries! X

Diary of Glam says
Zara Home sheets and pillow, maybe?
Is that Ikea Ofelia blanket or throw on your bed?
Where is the flowery bedspread from and couch cover?
😛 sorry for so many questions, love those soft colors, looks so peaceful and cosy 😉
Marianna says
Zara Home does have really similar ones, those are from Stockmann though 🙂 I wish we’d have Zara Home in Finland!! The blanket is from Ikea! Flowery bedspread from Ikea too but a long time ago, and the couch cover from Hemtex. Haha no problem, I’m happy you’re interested in home things, gives me inspiration to post home pictures in the future too! Really want to do something fresh here for spring. x
Diary o Glam says
Yes, eh eh, I love your home because your decor taste is very similar to mine and we shop at the same stores. Zara Home & Ikea are my favorite stores when it comes to decoration so I find your decor posts very useful when I want to change my room a bit 😛 enjoy your weekend 😉
Laís says
Lovely pictures! I’m really inspired by your choice in colors for your home. Actually, this post made me remind that I need to buy some new sheets for my bed.
Marianna says
Thank you so much Laís! New sheets always cheer up! And changing clean sheets, love the feeling after doing that 🙂
nueyork says
Taking the time to relax is so important and I hope you learn to not feel that guilt! As long as it’s in proportion, relaxing is so, so beneficial to you.

Natali says
Lovely photos, but sounds like you had a hectic day. Take it easy Marianna, sometimes it’s like we’re running after something but in the end it wasn’t so important/ crucial, but we feel super exhausted and uncomplished.
http://lartoffashion.blogspot.com
Marianna says
Thank you Natali. Yes, sometimes just 100% relaxing is needed, just pausing everything. I think this weekend I’ll have time for that! 🙂 x
abdullah teke says
Aw .I know how you feel. All I do is work like a mad man and forget to even take a little break.. Take a deep breath count down from ten ..even forget to read your blog sometimes 🙁
Marianna says
Sounds like you need a break too! Try to take it easy this weekend. But don’t forget to read my blog!! >:( Haha kidding, have a relaxing weekend!

Minna says
Sulla on niin hempeä ja raikas koti, että sinne voisi uppoutua koko päiväksi! Itsekin kirjoitan blogia ja olen huomannut, että jos kirjoittamisen jättää viimeiseksi ennen nukkumaanmenoa, ei uni tulekkaan niin helposti. Iltaisin pitäisi muistaa rauhoittua, mutta minkäs teet jos se on ainoa hetki istua alas ja näpytellä koneella. 🙂
Marianna says
Tuo on ihan totta, kirjoittaminen jotenkin aktivoi aivoja liikaa! Pitäisi viimeisimpänä vain lukea kirjaa ja rentoutua ennen nukkumaanmenoa. Kiitos kommentista Minna 🙂
Ansku says
Voi mä niin tiedän ton tunteen. Mulle tehokkuus on kaikki kaikessa. Mikäli mahdollista, teen kahta asiaa samaan aikaan jotta toimisin mahdollisimman tehokkaasti. Ja se jos mikä on raskasta.
http://www.peaceandstyle.fi
Marianna says
Äh kuulostaa tutulta! Mulla menee kyllä enemmän vaiheissa, sitten kun on sellainen tehokkuusvaihe on rauhoittuminen vaikeaa. Tekemättömyys ja rentoutuminen lähinnä tuottaa syyllisen olon. Toivotaan että se tasapaino löytyisi meille kummallekin!
Caitlin says
Marianna,
I decided to finally comment after years of reading and absolutely adoring your blog. You are one of my biggest inspirations; for your lifestyle, your beautiful clothes, lovely personality, health and fitness routine, EVERYTHING! Thank you so much for continuing to make my day with your blog posts and instagrams. :3
I’m so glad to hear that your sleeping is getting back on track. It’s one of those things that has such a snowball effect, and effects how you go about your day. You ought to take a leaf out of my book; I relax far too much!
Anyway, I hope you have a restful sleep and a wonderful week. <3
Love, Caitlin.
Marianna says
Thank you so much for deciding to drop a comment. That means so much to me, I’ll probably be smiling the rest of the day. <3 So so lovely comment, thank you and same to you Caitlin! x

Anna Saarinen says
Oi mitä ihania kuvia! Sun asunto on niin ihanasti sisustettu! Sun keskiviikkosi kuulostaa tuollaisenakin kivalta, mutta totta on tettä ihan vaan rentoutumis päiviä tarvitaan myös, toivottavasti saat sellaisen perjantaina sitten!

Marianna says
Kiitos Anna. 🙂 Niinpä, noinhan se menee, tänään kyllä aionkin rentoutua! Kivaa viikonloppua!
Cheyenne says
It’s hard sometimes, even though your body tells you that you need to slow down but you’ve got so much stuff to do you simply can’t slow down..
Hope you get your needed relaxation time soon.

Nina Sax says
Oh come’on you lazy ! HOW can you be tired with your lifestyle ? 🙂 I mean I am studying a Master degree, and have a part time job during nights next to that, so I can tell you tonight I barely slept 3-4 hours, so yes I do know what tired mean but as for you, I am jealous of your sleep believe me… 😉
Marianna says
4 hours have been the average sleep for me for over a month, luckily I think I’ve just broke that cycle and it’s getting better now. Blogging and my life through this blog might not seem busy or stressing, but sometimes it’s not that simple or easy to explain… I hope you’ll have time to relax too, that sounds like a lot of work!
Louisa says
Lovely pictures 🙂
Are you planning on moving to a different appartment? Or why are you looking at appartments?

Thank you Louisa, happy you liked them 🙂 And yes I might be moving, I’ll write about this here more when I know more, just a sudden thing I started to think about… X
Dixi Wonderland says
Are you moving to a bigger apartment? 😀 Me and my boyfriend + our dog live in a one room apartment and have been for almost 3 years (I lived here like 1,5 year before he moved in) and we are looking after a bigger place but it´s hard. I hope you find what your looking for 🙂
Marianna says
I might be! 🙂 Wow you’ve managed that well then for a long time, I hope you’ll bump into exactly what you are looking for. But yes it’s hard to find the right place! x
Sophie says
Hi, probably we all have problems with no free time 🙁 hope you will take a rest soon 🙂 will you change your apartment for bigger one?
Enn Franco says
You need to relax more often in order to be healthy and have good mood! So I wish you a good sleep and a relaxing time)

Barunka Svejkovská says
are you moving in another apartment? 🙂 keeping busy is a good thing, in the evening you know you’ve lived your day well and fully and don’t have to regret anything 🙂 but you gotta relax when you’re tired. Hope you’ll get better soon :-*

Taking the time to relax is just as important as following a busy schedule! Please take time to take care of yourself and relax – go for a walk or take a yoga class, but don’t bring your phone! Unplug! 🙂

Salla says
Ihana koti! Monelta muuten otit melatoniinin ja monelta menit nukkuun? Mulla kestää sen vaikutuksessa aina joku tunti :/ olis ihana saada ruokapostauksia enemmän. Millä muuten peset kasvot ja käytätkö mitään e-pillereitä? Mulla on paha akne ni mietin auttaisko..
Marianna says
Kiitos Salla! 🙂 Otin melatoniinin just ennen nukkumaanmenoa, nukahtamisessa mulla ei ole niinkään ollut vaikeuksia, mutta aamuyöheräilyssä on. Tuntunut kyllä auttavan tuohon! Otatkohan tarpeeksi isoa annosta? Mä oon nyt 3mg ottanut kerralla, taitaa olla aika mietoja. Ruokapostauksia tulossa enemmän, niitä on jo muutama muukin toivonut! Pesen kasvot Philosophyn tai Cliniquen tai Kiehl’sin puhdistusgeelillä, ehkä suosikkini noista Clinique. En käytä e-pillereitä, ei oikein sovi mulle! Hmm, monihan sanoo niiden auttaneen, eli ehkä voisit kokeilla! 🙂
lllll says
Hello! Would you take a risk and move alone to a bigger city, where you would not know a single person? for school or job, to find happiness :)?
Marianna says
I could! I think. Would be scary though, but if I’d got a sudden instinct or inspiration I’d follow it 🙂 I love big cities.
Mary Juliane Trelease says
Marianna, you are very mature and intelligent. You may be younger than me but I look up to you. I have always been inspired by your unique taste and your sense of style is amazing. I don’t know if you remembered me but you once followed me on tumblr and it made my day. I just always been inspired by everything that you do. I think your home is so lovely and cozy. My daughters always love your photos and they are seven years old and five years old!!!! You are a good role model for younger girls. I hope you will stay as sweet as ever. I hope you will have a restful night sleep and have a lovely night!! xxx
Marianna says
Oh wow, thank you! 🙂 So kind of you to say that, I’m a little speechless! Yes I remember your Tumblr, I rarely remember them, but you have really good taste in pictures! Thanks so much again Mary x

Jay says
Hey Marianna.
Sounds like you’ve been going through a rough couple of months. Like I’ve said on my last comment (not sure if you read it cause you never replied) don’t sweat the small stuff. Take it easy… don’t stress or over think things and put a limit of your daily errands and work. Don’t do more than what you are capable of at the moment. I know you are a very intelligent girl but don’t pressure yourself. Put things aside and give yourself time alone, clear your mind. Take this from me it helps.
Sending you cyber hugs pretty girl! 🙂 You should really consider coming over to California on a trip, maybe you need new experiences I can help you with that. If at any time you decide to travel to the U.S. and need a connection I’m here. I travel all over, just haven’t been to Finland yet unfortunately for me. Someday I’m sure. Anyway my friendship is yours whenever you feel you can trust me. Take care sweetie!
Jay
Marianna says
Thank you so much Jay, needed to hear that! 🙂 Haha, that would be so cool, I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the supportive words, really appreciate it 🙂
Marie says
I love your decoration, your place looks so comfy and nice! It inspires me everytime. Therefore I wanted to ask if maybe you could show us your bathroom too, i hope this request is not to personal or something.
xo
Marianna says
Thanks so much Marie! 🙂 I could do that, it’s really small though, but I could probably do a video tour… x
Céline says
I know that feeling so well! It has become so fashionable to be busy, busy all the time, that we forget how important it is to just relax. I feel so guilty when I just spend a day enjoying myself or watching series in my pjs, but it´s so important for your mental and physical health. You should never feel bad for this :*

Therese says
Dear Marianna,
Where did you bought those pretty purple cushion?
I found a similiar one at “Amazon” (http://www.amazon.de/KISSENHÜLLE-KISSEN-KISSENBEZUG-DESIGN-KISSENHÜLLEN/dp/B00I0AB6MI/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1431853956&sr=8-11&keywords=Kissen+Rosen+lila). But I’m not sure about the quality and all that.
An answer of you would be really helpful. Have a wonderful Sunday.
Therese
