Monday, 27th March
The snow is still bad, but the
authorities are making good work clearing it. Sweden is getting on
with life. Ben and I checked on our neighbour again and took her dogs
to do their business. She reckons she will venture out with them this
afternoon, the paths are cleared.
We have built a snowman in our
garden. I have not done that since I lived on the farm. We also had a
snow fight. We had some lovely freshly made soup and home made bread
( Ben has got the hang of it pretty well now, he found a recipe which
works well) and now we have the fire going. Ben is reading, sitting
on the floor. It is funny, we are sitting here, comfortably enjoying
the snow and the “day off” it brings, while elsewhere people are
working in offices, factories, hospitals, experiencing hard ship and
fun, and we are very lucky to have the time together. I am looking
forward to doing some shifts at Easter, and then I will start regular
lectures at the university in May. Hopefully we can
establish some routine.
