Week Notes 26#12

• Wednesday was a lovely sunny day, so we met up with a friends for coffee in the city
• Saturday was not sooo lovely but I took Baby-En and met up with a friends for coffee and food while El had an appointment at the hair salon
  • I spend some time walking through the city with Baby-En and managed to get him some new Patches to pimp up his shirts. We have one from The Offspring, one that says “Vegan AF” and the last one says “Vegan Future”
• Sunday we were invited for dinner at a friends place. Chili and Cornbread. Very tasty.
  • I learned the hard way, that the 12V battery is very important even in an electric car… So one of our friends drove us home and I need to come back tomorrow with a new battery.
  • Nothing worked. I tried to start the car, when I was still able to see some information on the board computer. But nothing happend. Then the displays went dark and the only icon I could see was the one that tells me that the key was not detected in the car. And even that icon disappeard after a while. Only some of the beeps were still hearable. We couldn’t even lock the car anymore :)

Week Notes 26#11

• Finished Stranger Things
  • It was a good series, but I don’t really have a strong opinion about the last season.
  • In general I liked the whole thing, even though I was never really invested in it after the first season.
• The rest of the week was not as nice - but this is more on the personal side. I might share it in the near future, or not…

Listened to Das Kapital by Betontod - ★★★★★

Week Notes 26#9

• The week started off very quite with me and Baby-En just enjoying some time at home together
• BUT, El and I finished Dark. It was a great show but both of us thought that they rushed the last season.
• All 3 of us went to the Lønningspils which was organized by one of Els colleagues.
  • Baby-En enjoyed his first visit to a pub
  • He was the center of attention and of course wanted our food instead of his own. So he tasted some of our sweetpotato fries.
• On the weekend we celebrated Baby-Ens 1st birthday
  • A lot of people came (including his friend - who was able to come after all) and the house of full of kids and parents
  • Good thing we booked a daycare spot for Krümel for that day
  • I can’t believe it’s already been a year. El and I are watching “old” pictures and videos of En and both of us are suprised who fast he has grown. He is close to walking 🤯
• Anyway, this also means my last month of parental leave has started. There are days when I look forward to a normal working day, but most of the time I am just happy to see him grow up and enjoy every small piece of the world around him. I am going to miss those days…

Week Notes 26#8

• It’s been a very quite week of me painting one me piece of furniture in Baby-En room and waiting for it to dry
• El and me are deep into the TV Show Dark
  • We never watched a Show were we needed to stop so often to talk about what just happened and to loosen some knots in our heads before continuing
  • We were so close to finishing it this week but us being tired made us stop and move the last two episodes to today
• Sunday we went on a nice walk in Estenstadmarka. We got some fresh snow in the last couple of days and the sun was shining, so it was beautiful to walk through the forest. We were also almost by ourselves.
• Next week is Baby-En first birthday
  • Sadly his only friend is not able to join but we invited some friends and colleagues for coffee and cake and booked a place at the dog hotel for Krümel

Coffee time

Week Notes 26#7

• Spend some time in the city with my dad and Baby-En before he left on Tuesday
  • We actually wanted to go to Sponhuset but it was closed due to winter vacation
  • Went to Espresso House in City Lade instead - Baby-En had a blast because the coffee shop is in the middle of the shopping mall and he can smile at sooo many people :)
• Went to Carglass so they can fix the stone chip they missed last time
• On Friday we went to the dog park after a long while. I think Krümel had fun. It’s sometimes hard to know because she doesn’t want to leave but also mostly watches the other dogs play.
• Invited Pat and Dani for Lasange on Saturday, they have just been to Germany and brought us some nice vegan stuff … yummy.
• Sunday was a quite day with lots of sun. We went for a nice family walk and enjoyed the rest of the day by doing mostly nothing
