    People watching

    At the beginning of the week, I got to do a lot of people watching while at La Soupe. It is located in the daylight basement of a hotel. I took the train down to Malmö Sunday evening and stayed with a friend so I could work two final days. I always meet interesting people…

    Alvesta

    Bonus blog this week. I am on the train with the scenery passing quickly as I travel from Värnamo to Malmö. I had a stop over in Alvesta. I have been there a few times at the train station but never had an opportunity to look around. It is considerably smaller than I expected. The…

    Words matter

    Spring flowers are popping up all over. There has been some interesting weather to be sure from hail, snow, wind, rain, and sunshine. All the weather in one day can happen in spring. I saw cherry blossoms starting to burst open as well as crocus, daffodils, and snow drops on my way to work in…

    Malmö week

    The week has gone quickly. I finished my writing retreat by adding up my words. I think I have a good start, so now it’s time to start the editing process. Nala is still in heat, so she could not have her surgery Monday as planned. Hopefully, next week. She got some pills to help…

    Writing

    I have been on a writing retreat at home. I have written 18,000 words, of which most will probably not be anything, but I have been working. I have taken morning walks until today when it is raining hard at times with the wind blowing the rain sideways. I have enjoyed the process of writing,…

    Getting settled

    Unpacking is a process of finding where things fit. I am hoping to get a spot in the basement for the empty boxes to get rid of the clutter. As usual for me, I have put the things away left behind from the owner because I prefer my own. I have a couple of boxes…

    Snow and move

    This week, we have definitely had spring weather with a mix of snow, rain, sun, and snow again. You never know what is going to happen, but that is spring! It makes taking the bus a very nice option. I got a lot of things packed and have moved things in my little car. So…

    Värnamo

    This past week, I was up in Värnamo. A small town in the province of Småland, which is the province or county I was born in. It has about 20,000 people from the 2019 census. My cat Nala has moved up already, but I still have my apartment in Malmö until the end of the…

    Spring is coming

    This past week I bought myself flowers. They are so beautiful but they are in Malmö and I am in Värnamo. Värnamo is a much smaller town about 2 1/2 hours north. It is much colder here. I packed a few things I wasn’t using and have started the moving process. I have certainly accumulated…

    More change

    Spring is in the air again. Some warmer days, followed by cold but the light makes everything better. It is light until almost 6 now. I feel the excitement in the air and trees are starting to bud. Looking forward to more daylight and seeing all the flowers which will come. This week I booked…
