The light is coming back to Stockholm!
The light is coming back to Stockholm!
The vaccinations in Stockholm aren’t going as fast as predicted. Today’s backlash when it comes to Astra Zeneca will slow down things even more. This is the biggest news story right now, when all Swedes aged 18 or more will get there vaccine. The plan is that all adults will get their vaccine before June 30, but that’s starting to feel way too optimistic. But all we can do is wait and see. One good thing is that spring is coming. The light in the morning, the smell of things waking up outside and that buzzing feeling in your body telling you things will be better. I love springtime. It’s actually better than summer.

I didn’t sleep well, woke up this morning very tired and very not keen on working. But after coffee, getting the kids to school and some mental training (staring through the window) I sat down before the computer and dug into the first meeting of the day. And all of a sudden it was lunchtime. I had solved a couple of problems, talked to a lot of people on the phone and via Slack and all felt okay. Tomorrow I’ll do it all again. #homeoffice #remotework
Tomorrow is workday again. I am glad I have my job but it would be nice with a couple of days off. I haven’t had the time to reboot myself between my old job and this new one.
Sunday morning headache here we go. And it’s not related to heavy drinking. Coffee and breakfast might make a difference. I’ll start with that.
I was bored the other day when reading a blog post on micro blog about Blot. Blot.im is a blog service where you publish text and images by saving them to a specific folder on Dropbox. I could use write.as and snap.as but I like trying out new things. So I registered Human Tracks, a photo blog with images showing traces of humans in different ways. #blot #blogging
Spent today here. It is such a conditioner for the soul.
Soft Fridays? No no no. as I wrote yesterday Fridays mean a lot of work for me. I have to manage three editions of newspapers at the same time; Saturday, Sunday and Monday (because I have a Monday-Friday job even though the papers daily). I don’t have time for his, bye for now.
Home office
Tomorrow’s Friday and that means hell of a lot of work, at work. I would like it better if Fridays could be a bit soft. On the other hand, Friday nights are the best. When you can have a beer and do some slow cooking while the kids hang around at home playing video games or watch tv. But now: some late night coffee. Black as the night. Plain. Made in brewer. #coffee
Horrible.

I really like living in Stockholm but I can’t stop dreaming about a house in a rural area.
New post on my Blot blog! Not all counts
Winter’s back in Stockholm.
If anyone here on MB wants an invite to Clubhouse… let me know.
My day at home office this far: better than expected.
A late walk to the pharmacy feels like a treat after a day in front of the screen in the bedroom, aka “the office”.
My bike was stolen, I found out yesterday. It made me angry. It wasn’t an expensive one but I’ve put a lot of time fixing it and it was the perfect every day bike. No gears, a basket in front and steady as hell.
Luckily I have an old racer bike I can use in until I’ve got myself a new one. The old racer isn’t a bike you want to use during winter time. It’s way to wobbly. But it’s better than no bike at all. So today I fixed the flat tire and replaced the broken pedals for new ones. I cursed a few times but now it’s up and running.

Talked to my brother on the phone yesterday. He and his fiancé had a baby son a month ago. I’m happy to be a uncle for the fifth time.
How can so many different blog platforms exist? I am myself using several of them but hey, that’s not recommended if you want to build a steady audience.
I am done doing this for now. Good night.
