Another summer time memory

Note; an answer to dailyprompt-1990

my absolute favourite year summer holiday was the summer of 2016, I’ve written often a lot about this time and I will write even more about it soon.

but this memory is from 2004 the year I turn 11 and it’s about my strong imagination and about my psychotic thought patterns around events. Btw I just remember something right now, how I had those cotton padding like from removing makeup on during that time.

(I was not happy with my shape and especially the size of the upper pair).

so I was walking outside living in my own world of magical powers and the inner delusional identities, it sometimes began to rain right after I thought it would soon be rainfall. I thought this was special powers on my part and that they were related to the identities within my mind. And don’t get me wrong; I really really don’t have dissociative identity disorder/MPD; I’m diagnosed as autistic and with strong psychotic disorder. And a quite strong vivid imagination as well.

It was an inner world that was heading for the Dark times to come. My mind just got darker every year up until 2013/2014 after effective medications got my psychotic symptoms more under control.

I’m going to write some more (about my great 2016 vacation events and places) on both blogs.

I hope you feel well on this July day of 2025. Thanks for reading ❤

Summer holiday of 2016

Describe your most memorable vacation.

I’ve written about this before on several dailyprompt answers so I just say it was three different regions and many towns in Finland and Scandinavia; both in far-Southern (Agder) and far-Northern (Finnmark) county in Norway. The Finnish region was along the border to Sweden so we pass border several times during our several days trip.

First our visit to the nearest hospital in other town on the coastal region on an island. Finnmark county natives know what this is about very well but I think it’s very strange how the largest town in Finnmark has no hospital. And the roads are frequently closed due to strong weather during winter season which is a big part of our environment. It’s a sensitive issues sometimes because the large town is seen as demanding special treatments but that’s wrong. We have MRI machines here now but no hospital.

The weather condition there that day was very good, it’s s different environment with less trees and more strong winds especially some local places during winter season. We went up a path to a higher level area so we could see town clearly from our position. I love this small town and I lived there for several years in youth and young adult years.

Second our visit to Agder county in far-South areas, we have plenty of living relatives and ancestors living in Agder regions from the Eastern parts to some degree and all to the far Western area very significantly. Rogaland also. It was great weather and comfortable temperature in Kristiansand that year, it’s a beautiful place to be visiting and the local Norwegian dialect is so dear to us my grandfather was far-Southern and he had three living brothers when it was over. We learn so much from my mothers uncle about the history of our family even back to 1900s.

The third adventures were travelling with many other fellow genealogy researchers and the different Kven groups like our towns community.

We had a really awesome summer trip to Northern Finland and Sweden along the Torne River border between the towns. I love being in Finnish local stores and trying to understand the price of something they have Euro currency not our Norwegian kroner currency plus everything is at least written in Finnish language which I unfortunately know not well enough yet to understand immediately without using memory.

Btw I’m of significant Kven ethnicity and culture even though the State policies were very harsh on Kven and Sámi speaking peoples, it’s name is ‘Norwegianization’ or in Norwegian language ‘Fornorskning’. That’s how we lost the languages of their generation to next, and I’m learning some Kven language books for education in our Kven group in this town.

Thanks for listening from my vacation journey ❤
