i've been riding a combat boat today. that was cool. and cold. but mostly cool.

and i'm still pup-less. i have to go back to the boats tomorrow, so the pup is staying with his girlfriends another day. i miss him. and i'm tired.

i just thought i heard a puppy sigh from under the couch. i miss my frog dog! he's staying with his girlfriends tonight, as i have to go away to work all day tomorrow. i guess he's happy. i'm not. i want to have my frog dog here for doctor house!

the nice n came to fix the heating in the doggy house today, so now it's warm and cosy. that's good! hopefully it can attract a few girls :)

i whish i had my own mr n in the basement, to pick out when i needed him. i'd let him fix the roof and the porch and a new bigger bathroom and a green-house and paint the guest house and the doggy house and the snowmobile garage and the car garage and the whatever-it's-called-now-but-former-old-little-cow-shed and build a new carport. breeth in. and take out the ugly floors in the bedroom and oh! of course! fix lights in the garden so i don't have to be afraid to miss the road when it's dark. i'm going to write to father christmas at once!

what the...! how difficult can it be to arrange a bus tour from one side of a little city to the other??

i'm once again checking out buses in the incredibly stupid (but somehow cute) little city of sollefteƄ. last time i did it was because i thought taking the bus to work would be environmentally friendly enough. this time it was because i'm too afraid of driving on ice since last winter. the result was the same as last time, though. it's impossible to go anywhere by bus in this city. so if i kill myself driving off the shitty roads it's the city of sollefteƄ's fault. or maybe not... but still. i think they should support me with a bus!

this is a shitty day because:
1) i didn't manage to finish even the most important things at work. and i'm too tired to go bak there tonight. but i really really should.
2) i forgot to bring my wallet to the grocery store. and i didn't realise it until i had unpacked all my items from the trolley. so i had to put everything back.
3) i was already close to tears when i started helping the husband with dinner. then i realised (or the husband realised) that i was mixing the ingredients to pancakes instead of omelettes. and then i burned the pancakes.

i feel a bit better now because:
1) i've had omelette (the husband made it all by himself).
2) we're watching morgonsoffan.
3) i've decided to quit the riding lessons. i don't have time. or maybe it's just the energy i'm lacking. either way they just make me more stressed.

i'm ditching work today. i'm not even working on the paper that i have to hand in on sunday. i've been so stressed these last few days, i've been whiny and annoyed and frustrated. and then i read these "words of wisdom" in my calendar: what's the hurry? nothing is on fire. and that makes sense. i really shouldn't stress so much.

the world won't be a better place by me feeling bad. (it won't be a better place by me feeling good either, but then at least i'm feeling good :) so i worked from home this morning, stomach aching and throat throbbing and i just wanted to cry with fatigue. and then i decided to go for a walk in the woods with the pup, and let him try tracking blood for the first time. he did really well, and afterwards i watched him run around completely happy, and that's when i decided the world will have to survive without me working today.

i just realised how stupid it is to work this late when nothing works as it should and i don't get any results whatsoever and it's just getting later and later and i'm just getting more and more tired and annoyed and frustrated so that i'm now really close to sobbing and crying. so i'm going to bed. good night

i think i'm being educated. by the cat. the smallest and meanest of them all. and he is not using the nice and soft methods with sweets and candy to reward good behaviour.

he woke up very very early this morning and started yelling about wanting to be let out. i refused to get up, which made him really upset. he walked around cursing and shouting and grumbling and complaining for a long long time. then he went quiet. and then he started grumbling and complaining again.

when i got up i thought i could smell kitty pee. but as i have a cold and haven't really been able to smell anything for two weeks i decided i was just imagining.

when i went up to the bedroom after breakfast i could definitely smell cat pee. i looked and looked and smelled and smelled but couldn't find it. i have looked for it again after work, but i can't find it. so i'm not sure... i'll have to wash the bed spread and the linen, just in case. and see what the husband says when he gets back from the cottage tonight. i don't think he has a cold yet.

Everything is ok again. The sun is shining. The car is fixed. The electricians have left. The worst working day of the week is over. I've got work i can do from home tonight, so i can finish earlier tomorrow.

not happy.

the car decided to break down today. i'm at work. the husband is at his work. the pup is alone in the doggy house in the garden. and the car is in a parking place somewhere in the middle of all this. and i somehow have to get the husband to walk (!) all the way to the car with a rope or something so we can fix it. i hate cars. i wish they were never invented. and the pup is all alone. and it's cold. and i wish it was summer.

and so the transformation has begun. i'm making new covers to the dirty old comfortable chairs. i found a wonderful flowery colourful coarse fabric, and i love it love it love it. i just realised my calculations were wrong though, so i probably don't have enough fabric to finish both chairs. why can't everything just be perfect?

well well, half a chair is done, and it looks quite ok. once again i've proved i'd make a greatish housewife.

i just semi-watched the news while feeling sorry for myself and my brand new cold. and now i feel sick. a gang of young boys is continuously harassing a home for elderly people. "harass" in this case doesn't mean not standing up when the little old ladies need a seat on the bus. it means shooting through the windows of the little old ladies' homes with guns. and someone has assaulted a horse. she has big deep cuts in and around her vagina. and we have to live in this world.
