Someone seems to have forgotten to add water. It got very concentrated.

The last 4 to 5 months have been really hectic, to say the least. It’s been a bit like a crescendo in activities. The list includes: 2 concerts (AC/DC in London and Metallica in Stockholm), moved twice (from the house in Gustavsvik into the city and then out to the house in Ingarö), 4 weddings (Edinburg, Hawaii, Bjuröklubb and Bureå) resulting into 4 car rentals and 12 flights, 2 journeys to London, a business trip to Dublin, a road trip to the Norwegian fjords, on 4 different occasions I’ve been on day trips out to islands in the archipelago (Sandhamn, Grinda, Finnhamn and Söderöra), we’ve bought a house (which includes it’s fare share of tasks from a-z), we’ve bought a car, I’m still trying to import our existing car, and have had family and friends visiting on 4 different occasions.

Work wise I’ve also been busy. The work over summer resulted into new business for the company and with me in a parallel lead role (both pretty much required full time attention) for 2-3 weeks. I also managed to squeeze in two 10-15 days freelance projects.

Yeah… try to fit all that in within 4-5 months. Even a year would be difficult. To be honest — I don’t know how it’s been possible. I’m sure there have been occasions during these last couple of months when I haven’t been my normal me me and I. If you have been affected. I’m sorry.

I’m now one and a half weeks into a much needed 2 weeks holiday. And for my own health I’m now sitting here with my laptop in my lap, glass of red wine in my hand, reflecting on the past hysterical couple of months and writing a summary. For you and for me.
