Sun instead of snow

March 7th, 2010

Spring seems just round the corner, with a sun that is finally able to melt the snow that has been falling for so long.

Size of Problems

February 26th, 2010

We – and the problems we are grappling with – fills a lot in our own worldview.
But if we see the Earth from outside, we are really quite small in comparison.

Earth is one of the smaller planets around the Sun.
The sun is just one out of approx. 100 billion (!) Stars in the Milky Way.

The Milky Way is just one of perhaps billions of galaxies in the universe.

Suddenly everyday problems seems rather small. ;)

License plate trouble

February 22nd, 2010

Yesterday I had parked my car at a train station. When I came back to fetch it, I discovered that both license plates were stolen!

Today I had to spend time getting new license plates, change the registration certificate of the car, contact the insurance company and find the places where the old number was registered.

Thanks to Molly from Rocketboom for this fantastic piece of poetry.

What is all this white stuff?

You could be tired of reading yet another post about snow.
I am definitely tired of having to write about the same topic in yet another post. But snow is everywhere these months: The snow that fell weeks ago are still lying there, and ever so often, we see more snow from above.

Snow snow snow … and more snow

February 3rd, 2010

Blizzard yesterday. More snow today. When will it ever have an end?
Maybe now? The cold continues, but the meteorologists promise days without snow from above.

Drifting Snow

January 27th, 2010

Large quantities of snow from above and drifting snow. I hope it is over now. I am not enthusiastic about driving on slippery winter roads.

Still more snow

… I’m ready for spring!

2009 in retrospect

January 10th, 2010

A new year has just begun, so once again it is time to look back at the old year (just to get it over with, so I can spend most of my energy looking forward here after).

January 2009 started out just like January 2010, with me having difficulties finding inspiration. I would like to fill this blog with clever or beautiful words – it did not happen.

In February I spent a lot of time painting the inside of my home. I did not write about it though – but then again, who would find it interesting to write about wall paint.

March came up with some words to live by. Cleverly written, but not by me. Other than that: Nothing.

April brought spring to Denmark, and with that a bit of inspiration. Nothing much, but more than nothing.

Then May came. Oh what a month. There was time to enjoy the springtime, but it all got darkened when a friend of mine came to hospital because of a blood clot. At this time, there was still hope.

June brought lots of rain to Denmark. The mood saw some rainy clouds too, when my friend, who was beginning to see light in the horizon after the blood clot, suddenly got worse and died.

In July I got myself a new mobile phone, with a much better camera than in the old phone. This should raise the quality of the pictures a bit in the blog, since it often is pictures from my phone, I bring here.
This month also brought another inspirational blog post – or maybe just another way to say, that I could not find anything to say.

In August, I got a NAS box. If I did anything other than that, I didn’t write about it.

But then it was September, and so much happened to me. No wait, nothing happened – again.  I did take some photos. 1 2

October brought only one blog post, with just one photo.

November – nothing.

December came with two things: Yet another blog post with me trying to say something clever, and: A lot of snow.

… That was 2009.

Oh so cold

January 10th, 2010

The New Year has started out very cold. Maybe not as cold as Sweden or Norway; but while Canada and Greenland have a mild climate these days, it is a cold experience to be anywhere but indoors in Denmark.
