After the post below I decided to work from home both thursday and friday. On thursday I went to the gym for a solo session. On friday both Tina and I drove down to Lolland and our summerhouse. On saturday we teamed up and began replacing broken glass sections in our greenhouse. With our new glass cutter it was kind of easy. It was like easy and funny. Just cut and when break the glass apart - not hard at all. Pretty fast we had the sections we wanted and went down to our greenhouse to change them.

We drove back home saturday afternoon. At home I could feel something on it way - coughing and snot on it way. Monday it all went to shit and I had to call in sick. I mostly was in my bed monday to saturday. On sunday I began to walk around at home again. Yesterday monday I worked from home and to day I went work in person. Not on my bike but by metro and train. I still have a mild headache because of the snot and coughing. But I think I might survive this time. Tomorrow is my last working day this year. I have forced five days off and then the usual christmas days off.

Because of christmas I don't when I will make the next update.

I went to the gym last thursday for the first time after the Nordic Championship. They were still building new routes on the big overhang, which had been striped because of the competition. It was an okay session, but I could feel in my fingers, that it had been too long since the last climbing session. We had a lot of plans for the weekend. On saturday we went by Tina's our oldest niece and her newborn daughter Thea. Later we were supposed to meet up for dinner at my oldest brother. That was canceled because they got sick. For the moment there is some kind of epidemic with coughing and fever.

On saturday we first went to my parents for breakfast. Later we went by Tina's sister for coffee and cake because it was first Sunday in Advent.

I went alone to the gym on monday. My buddy was out of town. I hanged out by the auto belay and did some bouldering. They have build this fine black route a 6C by the auto belay which is perfect to train fingers because of the crimpy handholds.

Work is just crazy. I don't know what to do or how to make it stop. I guess I just have to endure until christmas where we have forced vacation between christmas and new year. For the first time in a long time I actually have thought about looking for something new. It was only for a minute or two - but still.

I joined up as a volunteer for the Nordic Lead Climbing Championship on saturday where I was belaying the climbers. That turned out to be great fun. Initially it was just the qualification round. But they ask if I could do the finals as well. In the finals we were just two belaying the men and two for the women. It was actually a hard job. I didn't want to short rope anyone and want no one to hit the ground either (of cause - makes sense). The climbers fell on all the clips even just after the first and second clip. One also fell just as he was doing a clip. All in all it went as good as it could and it was a great experience to meet all those very cheerful and good climbers.

The competition was live one YouTube and you can watch it over and over again. You can recognize me as the tall fat bald guy. Out of the three matching that description - I am the most fat one with the hoodie and placing the rope bag against the wall. In some strange way this gig has given me some life energy back and has put my winter depression on standby for the moment. I even feel like maybe to begin drinking wine again. But before I carry myself away - I haven't been drinking in november what so ever and when it comes to december - I will take it very easy.

The last week it has been unusual cold in Denmark. On sunday I had to drive alone down to Lolland and prepare the house for temperatures below zero. I turned on the radiator in the outbuilding where the pellet furnace is and all the water installations. With that done, we can turn on the furnace from home if the temperature inside gets near frost. On tuesday morning I had to turn it on but locked it on max 55 percent so it wouldn't just eat all the pellet in 3 days time. 55 percent equals a water temperature around 40 degrees. Hopefully it will get warmer later in the week so we can turn it off again and save some money.

To day it was freezing cold in the morning on my bike. It tried out this turtleneck thing I bought years ago and haven't used which have a gab for the mouth. It made me look so stupid - but it worked very nice and kept my face from getting frozen up.

At work the guys one the first floor have gone completely nuts about christmas. There are just so many christmas balls hanging every where.

I wrote about a stupid man a month ago and how he cursed at me at a crosswalk, where he took the red light. I meet him again this morning! This time he hit a young women again as he took the red light - again. He immediate cursed at the women and blaming her for the "accident" and was kind of threatening and standing very intimidating close to her. I decided to make it my problem and pushed him away scolded him about his responsibility to look out when he do at red light and who he should look out and take care for other people. It was very very close to a becoming a fight. At the end he took his bike and left. I guessed it must have seen kind of violently out - but I shielded the women from more of his asshole manners. I guess I really mean, that there is no free card for assholes in my world - and I am not afraid to put my balls to the wall and make it count. Guess it would have been different if it was a big guy - or maybe I would just have handled it in a different way. Afterward I have been thinking of my temper - I might have to work on it if I meet type like that again and not to escalate a situation from 1 to 10 immediately because of the experience with this asshole. Maybe restraint myself just a bit.

We spend the weekend down at Lolland just relaxing and working on our 3000 pieces puzzle. We check the attic for leaking roof tiles but found nothing new. I think I will try to fix the last and third hole next time we come by. Saturday morning was so awesome with almost clear skies with a hint of frosty dew.

For sometimes (translate to more than 5 years) I have had two climbing pants in our wardrobe because the elastic waistband had rotten away (not literally). On wednesday I decided to try and fix them - mostly because news easy cost more than 100 euros. I went by a sewing shop and bought 5 meters of new rubber band. At home I took our our sewing machine, which I am the only one using, and began to fix the problem. With a safety pin I insert the new robber band. Afterward I adjusted the length to my liking. Finally I used the sewing machine to fix the new waistband permanently. The dark pair also had a hole at the right pocket which I fixed by patching with needle and thread. I still need to test them out at the gym before I know if it was worth the efforts. But it looks cool and you have to look close to see the waistband hack.

We had both last week off. Tina had a scanning at the hospital on tuesday morning. Afterward we were down south. We were at Maribo around midday and eat lunch at McDonalds just next to the expressway and went to our house afterward. We think there most have been some kind of a house marten up in the attic. There were some larger pieces of crap laying around. Also we could hear a mouse working around. I cleaned up the crap and we managed to get two of the mice in the traps. The mice are very careful and often they don't trigger the traps even though I set them up as very sensitive. One of the two we got was still alive, but with a broken back. I had to step on it to finish it off fast, so it wouldn't suffer any more. 

Up on the attic I found two holes in the roof which I had to fix from the outside. That was very tricky as the roof is too steep for walking or crawling. But I took our long ladder and laid it against the roof evenly and then climbed up. The one hole was a cracked roof tile which I just glued together with some roof fixer. The other one was just a lose tile which I just put back in place again. We also installed new LED light on the attic which we left on the scare away any new house marten to get in on the attic. Doing the installation I found yet another hole which is another crack tile. That hole we don't have time to fix, so we just put a bucket underneath. I think all the hole have been there for years with out making problems - but I rather have a house without any holes.

We began to redo or repair a new section on the first floor. It is so hard to clean off old wallpaper but we hope it will be nice when we finish it. Now it just look so trashy.

Work is still wired. My boss got demoted to team manager and one of the current team managers will the a temporary boss for 6 months. I don't know, if my old then will be back or what. Anyway I try to abstract myself from it all and focus on the job instead. I still have so much to do and have even begun to forget things.

All in all the last two weeks have been a kind of a downer for me. I have even stopped drinking wine in the weekend and a shot in the evenings because I feel so down. Only positive think is my climbing which still got pretty good and still without any injuries. Hopefully that low mood is just temporary or I guess I have to go to the doctor or something.

Two days after the latest update I got sick with some kind of flu. Wednesday evening all was good and joy. Thursday morning my throat was rotten and I had to call in sick. Until tuesday this week I spend more or less my time in bed sleeping and watching movies and doing nothing. Wednesday to friday I worked from home. So I wasted one week and two days of my life to nothing! Considering the state of the world I guess it could be worse.

One of the movies I saw was "Meg 2 - The Trench" with Jason Statham. Let me quote some of a review from IMDB "Clearly Jason Statham just did this movie for the money. The story is ridiculously bad, I mean seriously bad! Statham is like a constipated statue the whole time." I think this hits spot on! It was just so bad. Even worse it was chinese made - so it might have subject for censorship or even worse self censorship. Usually I avoid movies like that - but I gave it a try because of Jason Statham.

I got Tina on thursday with my flu and she also had to call in sick. Lucky for her it seams to run it course faster than with me. She is almost up and running again.

Yesterday I changed the tiers on the car to winter. After I bought the TPMS tool "QUICKSET X" and a torque wrench it is just so easy. It is just a bit of a dirty work because I am so sloppy to wash and polish the wheels - but that is life!

I wanted to buy the newest album with Lord of the lost - Blood and glitter as downloaded mp3. That turned out to be hard as usual. I really hate steaming services which try to control ones life and when you cancel you stand back like a loser with nothing. Not even on napalmrecords.com was it possible! Usual in situations like that I might do an unauthorized. Later in the evening I found out, that Bandcamp had it for sale and as download for 10 dollars. Of cause I bought it and even gave 3 extra dollars as support. This way I can head my music when ever I want in privately.

Twice since last update I have meet angry people on the bike path though Copenhagen. Thursday last week I meet an angry one just before long bridge. He didn't want to wait for a green light and I didn't give him any room. He was actually a very funny guy, we followed each other for quite a while and argued in a decent language. I think he thought I feel afraid that he was going to flow me. But I guess he then realized I just found him so funny - I really don't care about people who gets upset went the world don't turn in their way. I turned away because I wanted to stop at Lidl. He didn't follow me there or at least I don't think so - I don't even remember looking for him.

Monday morning I meet another one as I crossed the street at the crosswalk as I left home for work. It too was green for me and I just walked in my usual phase as I do in the morning. At the bike path I did a 90 degree turn and went on my bike. He wanted to pass me faster than I walk ignoring the red light. He cursed at me as the passed me and spat on the road - so childish. He was an elderly man and of cause I asked him why he cursed at me and what was troubling him. This one was just brain dead talking trash. I kind a feel sorry for him - after I laughed out loud. Imagine beginning monday morning at 6:30 and already be so angry and stressed out already, it is just so sad!

We had a big storm on friday. Tina called home thursday afternoon from work asking if we could drive to Lolland already that evening. She had asked if she could get friday off. Luckily I had my work computer with me home so I could work from home (aka summerhouse) friday while she had a day off. The storm was very intense but didn't cause any problems for us. Even the garden looked okay afterward. But near the coasts there were some problems. The wind came from the east and pushed water though the Baltic Sea creating a storm surge.

I have been stressed out at work and needed to relax this weekend. On saturday we drove to Red Cross and bought a new lamp for our dining room - it only cost 16,5 Euro and look very nice and solid. Later on saturday after a power nap I fixed one of the doors on the first floor which had been a bit banged up. I did some minor woodwork one it and painted one side. On sunday we both went out in the garden cleaning up and removing some summer plants.

I have only had solo sessions at the gym. My usual buddy has been on vacation and I don't want to press him. Hopefully he will be back soon. But still I am going twice a week doing autobelay climbing, bouldering and other stuff.

I went alone to the gym last thursday, just for a quick session. Later in the evening after a bath and some food I drove down to our house at Lolland. I worked from home friday from the house at Lolland. Tina had to work late on friday. On saturday she took the train down to Lolland as well. We didn't do much except struggling some hours in the garden. We have begun on a huge 3.000 pieces puzzle. So far it has only been baby steps. As we drove back home to Copenhagen sunday it already gets a quarter past 6 leaving the most of the trip in darkness.

Work is still very busy. I began monday to make a time schedule with all the deadlines the next two weeks. Then I focused on getting things done instead of helping everyone else and doing their jobs. As I left tuesday I was ahead of that timetable. Is is not completely dark in the mornings and it has been cold'ish since the weekend with only around 10 degrees.

Nothing else has happed in my life the last week. I feel like a zombie on autopilot navigating life without much motivation for the moment.

Most of my time and thought are currently spend on work. It is just so busy for the moment with some many task coming from city hall and internal in the organization. I just feel so tired when I come home except when I go to the gym. Somehow my mind seems to wake up out there in the gym.

On friday I meet up with my old colleges from around 8 years ago for dinner at the restaurant "flame" - right next to the building at city center where I once worked. That was awesome! I went home already around 9 pm because Tina and I wanted to spend the weekend at our house on Lolland and I had to drive. Maybe I was like a zombie most of the weekend just relaxing after a hard work week and maybe I am just a little stressed out. I know we change the water tap in the kitchen because it had begun leaking and it was just getting worse. On sunday I slept a lot and after lunch did the lawn.

Monday after work I went for the gym. My usual buddy is currently a bit unstable, but I had a great solo session and left the gym with sore fingers and muscles - just as I like.

I drove down to Lolland last friday alone for the weekend. I didn't do much saturday, just doing small stuff and doing the lawn. Om saturday I tried to fix the water tap in our bath. It had this heat regulator that has been stuck for a while. It tried to loosen it up first with force and then with a wrench - just to get it moving again. That was a fail as the thing I tried to get moving snapped off. With Tina at home I had to fix it or get my ass killed. Thankfully everything was standard. I just had to go to the nearest home depot (Jem&Fix) and buy a new water tap. With Tina it is easy, as long I don't buy the cheapest - something mid range is perfect. Pretty fast the change was done. I had to turn off the water out on the street, but that was no problem as we turn off the water every time we leave for Copenhagen.

I went for the gym last thursday and again this monday. Things are going great. I am now able to do three 6b's on the large overhang without getting completely overdone. I just hope my body don't betray me with an injury. It is getting so dark so fast now. I have to put lights on my bike in the mornings and when I leave the gym in the evenings. The weather is changing as well. The coming weekend we might get temperatures below 15 degrees - first time this fall.

Work is still a story for it self. Lots of stuff to do and long working days. It might go on as this until the end of october. At least november usually is quite. The stores at the local mini mall has begun selling christmas stuff - jesus christ!

Sunday was a crap day. Tina had invited for her knitting club but in the last moment 3 canceled mostly because they wanted to see some one else. That pissed Tina off and me to. Also because of all the work she put into it and baking cake and so on. I guess some people are not going to be invited next time. Work has been kind of strange after last week end my clash with the young colleague. I talk to my boss about it too. In a way I don't want him to get into problems but my boss already knew of cause. I have decided not to see it as I getting him into problems, but himself getting into problems because lack of interest and motivation to be full hearted at work. There should be no place for free riders at work. This week has so fare been busy as expected - almost 4 hours overtime in three days. But in november it will be different quieted. That is how it is, this time in the year.

I have stayed home from the gym these first days to be with Tina to cheer her up after the shitty sunday.

On wednesday I took a detour home to enjoy the lovely warm weather. I guess we had around 23 degrees and almost no wind. It will most likely be the same tomorrow but I might quit on time from work and head for the gym.

In a way it has been a crappy week since the last update. Things at work are so crazy almost surreal. Lots of stuff to do and no time to do it. I had an argument with one of our young colleagues about some technically stuff which he didn't understood. In the end I had to give up. But what got me was the lack of taking responsibility for one's own learning. I was like he thought I was a teacher or father and it was my fault and responsibility - like hell no! Anyway - hopefully - just a bump on the road. I had been so tired in the evenings. I have been going early to bed and mostly slept though for like 8-9 hours.

The gym is a totally different story. I went monday, wednesday and friday and giving it all I had. On friday I onsighted yet another 6B on the big overhang and reclimb another 6B on the overhang. I am really beginning to get strong. Hopefully my body will keep up and no injuries.

On saturday we went for dinner and wine at an old colleague and her husband. They had just bought a big house. That was awesome and time just went away.

I went to the gym on thursday for a quick session and to see which progress the route setter had done for the competition in the weekend. We mostly climbed the short routes as the long overhang was closed. The shorter routes felt harder as the same grade on the long overhang, so I had a few surprises. I ended my workday friday at City hall for a talk about budget overbooking. Later friday we drove down to Lolland for a weekend at our summerhouse. Tina when home sunday, but I stayed until tuesday evening. We didn't do much except cleaning out the garden and do the lawn. The weather was super on saturday which I ended by jumping in the sea in the afternoon. Sunday was all fog and clouds. That was not at all as the forecast had predicted. But it didn't matter that much as I had bad bad hangover. As I left tuesday I found a small wasp's nest on the 1. floor.

I removed it with the ash vacuum cleaner I use to clean our pellet furnace. It just said "whoosh" and it was gone. I got such a shock that I dropped the vacuum cleaner and ran away - hah hah - so stupid! But gone it was!

We have bought new supplies of jigsaw puzzles for the coming winter. 6 in total. Hopefully they will be enjoyable to make.

Work is a pain for the moment. I had hoped to ship work early both monday and tuesday down a Lolland but that turned out to be impossible. To has left the four man team - one in june and one in july. One has been sick on/off the last months leaving just me mostly. That has left a lot of mess for the coming economy forecast and in our FM-system. A result of this mess was we had 20 mio. euro to much in our budget. We have created lots of new projects the last three months but forgot to credit the pool at the same time - rookie mistake - but that is how it is! At the same time the politicians finish the budget for next year. In total = long working hours.

Work - five days a week until the end of the year. No more vacation or long weekends - just work and more work. But hopefully I can do some "working from home" even though I often do longer working days from home. We stayed in Copenhagen during the weekend. That was new, I think I have spend every weekend since the end of june down at our summer house or at least it feels that way. Tine had to work saturday. On sunday we went my parents for breakfast and discussion of the state of the world. Afterward we took a tour around their garden. Afterward we went by Bauhaus to by new indoor plants for our summer house.

I went to the gym monday alone for an easy session. All of the large overhang is closed this week because of the competition the coming weekend. They need at least 7 work days to setup all the new routes. However it turned out to be hard hard session because I kind of over did the boulder problems regardless of all of my old injuries. Tuesday morning my left elbow began to hurt again. I guess I have to relax just a little to avoid further problems. After work on tuesday I drove though Copenhagen to "Langelinie" to buy a soft ice. The weather has been very nice with temperatures over 25 degrees. The weather forecast for next week looks just as good. We will most likely visit our summerhouse during the coming weekend - maybe even work from home monday and tuesday next week.

Here is some pictures from the last seven days. It is getting darker and darker in the mornings. I bet that in two or three I have to put lights on my bike in the morning.

We are getting back to the old rhythm work, gym and down to our summerhouse in the weekends. I went to the gym on thursday last week for at good session. The long summer vacation has done good on my fingers and sore joints and so on. Hopefully this next session will be the best one ever. We drove down to our summerhouse on Lolland friday and spend the weekend. Mostly we were cleaning the garden and fixing small things. Must important was ripping off one of our apple tress so we could make apple juice. Another thing was the continued clearing of the shrubs towards the road and removing ivy all over the place. While I was working a mouse came by to say hello. For at short while I considered killing it - but it just just so cute, so I let it go again. I dug up the rest of the potatoes and made one of the high beds ready for the winter.

I worked from home on tuesday because then I could save the transport time and have even more time to make apple juice. First I washed and cut out all the apple. I put them in this huge box with water and lemon juice. The lemon juice prevented the apples from turning brown. The through the juice machine. It didn't take that long time but still was a huge task. Afterward I filtered the juice twice and the heated it up to around 82 degrees for five minutes for pasteurization. Then on bottles which had been cleaned with boiling water and the cheapest vodka we could buy. We haven't yet tasted them - but we are looking forward.

We came back to Copenhagen sunday. For me it was after four weeks down at our summerhouse at Lolland. Tina joined me after a week and we had three weeks together. I didn't take that many pictures - as time somehow just slipped away. I did a lot of fixing around the house especially around our terrace and in the back house.

Tina's sister and our nice came by for a one night sleepover. Naturally our nice wanted to try out my pellet rifle - that was great fun. After almost two weeks the weather turn very bad and cold so we drove down to Leipzig in Germany and stayed from thursday until monday. It was just relaxing city vacation with shopping and eating out very evening. Candy and liquor are very cheep in Germany - so we bought quite a bit. A bottle of Ouzo 12, 38%, 70 cl. costs just under 20 Euro in Denmark. In Germany it only costs 10 Euro - so I bough 5 bottles + some other brands.

I will try and make a commitment to begin to take pictures again and return to weekly updates.

I know it is only wednesday but on friday it is time for vacation. This year it is going to be 4 weeks in row where the first week is a solo vacation. That means just me alone somewhere in Europe - but most likely down at our summer house at Lolland.

I drove down to our summer house last friday alone. Tine had to work during the weekend - so off I went. I drove very early in the morning around 5 am. There were no traffic so I might have made a speed record getting down there. I only think around 3 cars overtook me on my way south and I only drove 110 km/h - even where 130 km/h was allowed.

On friday evening I took my and drove to Kragenæs to see "Dodekalitten". That was a wired thing. I took at "short cut" though the forest to avoid the country road where the cars drive 80 km/h or sometime more. I was a interesting bike trip as the road at some places was non existing. I had to check myself for ticks when I came home but found none. On my way home I took the country road as it was much faster.

On saturday I began fixing one of the windows at our winter garden. For some time water have been coming though - more and more - making it a problem. First I removed the windows to inspect what was going one. That was very easy because of this huge rotten hole in the wooden frame of the window. I tried to clean as much as the rotten wood away as possible. For the back I used a chemical wood filler, in the from I used real wood as a replacement. I used my big table saw to trim the pieces, that made it all much easier. I finish it all with a lot of sealer to keep it together and to keep the water out. Afterward I put in the glass windows, the glass trimming. All I need is painting this remade section.

I took sunday off or more correctly almost off as I spend the afternoon doing the lawn. I stayed until monday after work and drove home to Copenhagen. I went to the gym on tuesday - just for a cozy session alone. I managed to get quite pumped on the auto belay routes.

I bird might have mistaken our camera for something else?

We drove down to our summerhouse on friday. The weather forecast promised around 27 degrees which came though. On saturday I began demolish and digging up an old concrete table. Removing the table was very easy with a big hammer. Removing the foot turned out to be heavy work as it was dug deep and made of reinforced concrete. With the help of Tina I got it up. I had to chop it up into three pieces to be able to lift them onto the trailer and onto the recycling station.  Later saturday I took my new e-bike down to the beach and took a dive to cool down.

The beach is so nice. there are only fields and a few local houses around - that means only a handful of families around.

Because of the wonderful weather we stayed late sunday. We spent our time in the garden just nursing around. I did the lawn and once again took a dive at the beach afterward. It ended up to just be a cozy sunday.

I went to the gym yesterday - tuesday. It was nothing big - I find it hard to push myself with this upcoming summer vacation in the horizon. It is the same at work, where almost everyone is gone on vacation.

The weather has really change from high sun at heat to rain, wind and even some very intense rain storms. I guess the farmer are very happy for the rain as it was very near a dry out for them. As we went down to Lolland this weekend we already know, that the garden work would be limited. I went to the workshop and Tina went for the terrace and painting the wall. If you touched the wall you would get white chalk on your hands. We found out, I you just washed it and the applied a primer the layer of pain would stick just fine. So Tina went to work.

I went to the pellet furnace and began a thorough cleaning and removing a lot of the old grown dirt, that seems to really stick to the walls in the furnace. Else the weekend came and went away. We also stayed monday. Tina had a day off from work and I could "work from home".

I went to the gym on tuesday for a climbing session - than didn't went go as well as I would have had it. I tried a 6B+ project but fucked up my feet work and got totally pumped. What a bummer - but that is life. I also have a finger on my right hard that has begun to hurt went using finger pockets. Maybe it is a good thing, that the summer vacation is coming up. After the session I found out, that small holes has develop on the shoe noses. It incredible that it has taken so long but I have really being working on my feet and correct placement. I will send them to be resoled after the summer vacation.
