So weird.

Now they’re chasing each other in the hallway.

These cats are too wound up to groom one another.

Opal, a platinum Burmese cat, stretching on her way down from a higher shelf to a lower, hung on metal netting bordering a catio. There’s a little snow outside, but not much, and sunny.

A cat and her beloved cat shelves.

Opal didn’t even finish her dinner because she was in a hurry outside.

The cats are happier about outside today. Sunny and almost 10C.

Everything still smells vaguely like fumes, so my respiratory infection still isn’t over. Stopppp.

Absolutely. I only have room in my brain for so much.

🥰🥰🥰

Got stuff for burgers on my way home. Let the cats out for a few minutes but it’s gray and dreary, so they came back inside again quickly.

Found a new to me bakery which looks excellent - just on the way between parking and work. Nice that it’s open from 9 am on a Saturday!

Tried the weekend drive time to work and it’s 35 minutes. Also got my CarPlay to work properly - I had to connect my phone physically.

True! I sat out there in my t-shirt for like ten minutes!

Opal, a platinum Burmese cat standing on a small cat tree in the catio. The sun is shining on her.

Fiona, a brown Burmese cat, is sitting next to my leg stretched out on a chair cushion. We are inside the catio and there is netting visible in the background.

Is it spring? Not really, no, but I did take one piece of cat furniture outside and also my catio armchair.

Fiona, a brown Burmese cat, is standing on a garden bench leaning forward toward a pot of fully grown cat grass.

I took the back roads home and then got groceries. The store had cat grass! Fiona approves.

Me with a waffle cone of half eaten pistachio gelato. I am wearing my nice Lanark sweater.

Pistachio gelato. :)

Still very weird, but now Joey’s Gelato runs the reststop, so it’s worth visiting for that alone!^^

Now there’s a low building next to it which sells the gelato I like, lots of Swedish candy and pizza. They’re building some kind of factory behind it all I think?

A Chinese type tall building in shadow against a very blue sky. It has a small gate next to it with some Chinese characters on it.

A short wall with a Chinese style turret on it in red. Two people are taking pictures in front of it. Behind it is a very blue sky.

It’s a strange place. Someone with a lot of money built it, but couldn’t run it for some reason. I think it was supposed to be a hotel/conference/event place, but it wasn’t built according to Swedish building standards, so now it’s just there.

I think I’ll go visit Dragon Gate. Never been there, because it’s definitely a car place.

Nope - called and asked and it didn’t arrive on time. Maybe Monday or Tuesday then. I’ll keep going with my trusty rag until then!

Hopefully I get a text about my new windshield wiper today. I'm off because I work the weekend, so it sucks a bit having to drive in to Gävle, but I definitely want to solve that problem as soon as possible.

Bed. Best.

One week with the car. Tonight it was nice driving home and I was alone on the highway in my direction long stretches.

One was a dentist, the other a tire salesman.

Earliest meeting got canceled, phew.

Got local apple cider and honey as thanks for participating in the panel. Also networked a bunch, resulting in two upcoming meetings. :)

Got here on time, but now I have an ocular migraine - probably because of stress.

Thanks!

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.
