I am at home in the countryside. It is still chilly but the temperature is more plus Celsius than minus Celsius daytime. I haven’t been running for a while, but today I did my usual track. Seven kilometers and then walk with Molly. She was very happy and eager about that. I let her run in the forest and she enjoyed that a lot. Molly needs a prescription for tick medicine. And perhaps I should get myself vaccinated against TBE (tick-borne encephalitis). Like Covid-19, you need to have repeated vaccinations against TBE.

I continue to watch the news. Perhaps I shouldn´t and just close my eyes and don´t care. But I do feel some kind of frustration. Nothing was done to prevent this war. Perhaps there is a reason for this, but we will never know.

Today I followed the recommendations about having food at home for a week. This could be a meny:

• Canned meat and fish
• Canned vegetables
• Rice or pasta
• Potato powder
• Canned soup
• Canned fruit
• Ham and marmalade
• Soft cheese in a tube

The shelves were almost empty in the supermarket. People are shopping for canned food. Like when the pandemic started and the shelves were rapidly empty. Is it right or wrong to think like this? Anyway, this is food with long sustainability and you can eat it within three years.

Music is needed and I share “Disappear” with INXS.

Hi there. I have been busy with my studies. Campus studies have been great fun and challenging. It is different to study now compared to fifteen years ago. You use the internet more. First, I was not really sure if I could trust the information, but it is rather safe. Knowledge is constantly developing. You have to cope with so much literature and find what is important in a short time.

Meanwhile, I follow the news from Ukraine. It feels like we need to have a lot of endurance. This will take time. We are also waiting for brighter days, and today was the first day in summertime. It has been nice to spend time in Uppsala and I searched my photos and found this from “the English Park”, close to Carolina Rediviva. A glimpse from upcoming greenery.

I have intense weeks with campus studies in Uppsala. Trying to remember old knowledge which is there. Somewhere. This was just to stay connected with you, my dear readers. Will write more next week!
