Don't know what but I am sure today it happened. Around the world tons of things happen every milisecond. Small things, big things, humongous things. What might seem small for a elefant, sure is big for an ant.
Today I was making Home Office.... One of the perks I really enjoy after I started working in Norway is flexibility. Working from home... turn you computer on, connect to VPN and work remotely. It happens often that some colleagues didn't even notice that we are out, and workflow keeps on moving. Working at home has advantages, sometimes I think I work even more productive, because there are less "talk", coffee breaks, less distractions, it really works nice.
Every Monday I get back to work I wonder how bad can it gets... Looks like as I am getting older and older, it even worse and worse... I think I need to think about something to improve this...
Well, big party at our place. As I am writing this on Tuesday, I am waiting a note on the mail, I can only image... " We will recommend that you noisy MF will be kick-out of this condominium due to excessive noise" The star of the party was our "OK GOOGLE"... poor lady she was confused on what to play...
Another friday another weekend, endless opportunities to relax until monday. It is now time to re-charge batteries, relax and disconnect from work. Monday back in charge.
Today I found out that on the 23rd of August it was the day I quit my job in Portugal 6 years ago. Would I do do same knowing what I know today? Definitely.
Go for a Car Ride day.. Just cruising around and finish the day at some friends eating a delicious Portuguese almond pie. Please have a nice working week.
So to day after work I felt capable to run the marathon, but after having some food, I run the marathon in my dreams :)... And I won, by a large margin, WR... Happy Weekend.
So, with insomnia, comes? Very sleepy person the day after. So today (yesterday, because I am writing on the 15th, crazy isn't it?) I was sleepy head. Fall asleep in the sofa after work and wake up decided that something had to be done. So I got my snickers (the running shoes), bottle of water and off I go... Just a short walk he said.... just to Lysaker he said.... 1,5 hour later, it was 9pm... better return by bus and go to the supermarket to get some dinner... Most of the walk I did, I had already done most of it, but there was a very nice part, that is on private land, but that you are entitled to walk, if you follow the path and the rules.... really nice..
It is becoming recurrent that I don't write everyday, I am becoming really worried with myself. And now, today 3 days apart I am trying to remember what I have done in this day Tuesday after work. ... ... ...
I was heavily dedicated trying to find out who could have an remote external dropper post in 27.2mm for my bicycle so that downhill is less dangerous... And I remember the insomnia during the night...
I was bout to write cycling, but that is too generic, and road cycling is nothing compared... It all started real slow, but the muscles were nice, then, just go a bit more.. up to Trivann? why not... thru the downhill tracks... go for it... Continue downhill in some full of stones new single tracks, off course sir... not happy? go up-hill again to cross to Sognsvann side... oh that trail was the one the one guy was come up the other day.... good, lets try it downhill... water, rocks mud... sweet.... Continue to downtown almost always on gravel to not wear the new tires... and almost home... The tour of Bygdoy, why not? it only 10km more :)
Now, as I write this, it hurts... Is there any capital city in the world, that you see "Bambi" in residential areas? There is, Oslo...
In Vigeland park... That one with the Bronze statue of kids, and naked persons, in a not so know place..
After a day in the sofa, the body was aching... so nothing better that put the blood to circulation. A few months ago I had passed some stairs while cycling that I had promised that I would climb them, and it was today. After one hour in Tram and Subway I finally arrive to the skirts of Oslo, Stovner. I took one hiking trail marked in UT.no that took me to Liastua, from there, I had the Sherpatrappa (the Stairs of Sherpa's), yes they were build by Nepalese Sherpas. So I went up the stairs and down thru the woods, around 5km hiking.
Amazing forrest trails, very slippery...
Because I was not yet happy, I took the subway to Nydalen and walked along the river down to Matthalen. always lovely walk.
First day of the weekend, day of deserved rest... Sofa, Fouton, Sofá, Couch, Chaise-Long.... Basically it was this.... with variants, lay on the right and after on the left..
Power day at work, out of Bed,cof cof, out of sofa at 6, straight to shower, and be the first in the office at 7am. Damn, what a energy... Work like hell, get home, do some cleaning, laundry and go out shopping, change the fish water, and make it look like a decent house :)... Tomorrow another day, and beginning of weekend.
What a slacker I am becoming not to write for almost 5 days and then write just something in a rush before going to bed... Shame on me. Finally today after work, I went to do something that was planned for long. But how come I am still so sleepy?? ... Go to Bed ...
Finally we went cycling... the first 4km were killing, 3km uphill to start and after 20km the final steep hill to the top of the mountain but with a killer view.. In the afternoon a car tour of the place and 4h driving home, and fall asleep really quick.
Not easy... and to avoid further problems, today I loaded the car and headed to the mountains to Hemsedal for some Mountain biking tomorrow. The car support is perfect and very convenient. Long trip...
No, No, No... I am in denial in relation to work.. After a painful set of hours in the office, I finally grabbed the bicycle after almost one month.. I should have gone easy on myself... it hurts... Legs, shoulders, back.. Goodbye, going to sleep...
The Turkey holidays are over... But not our holidays... Today it was day to wash and dry clothes... all day, and for Beatriz to play with her friends in the neighborhood. The Casa de Papel season 3 was seen, and we just want the season 4 to come out... Tic Tac, countdown to work.
