Glædelig jul

GLÆDELIG JUL OG GODT NYTÅR TIL ALLE!

 

Dagen i dag …

I dag er det 1 år siden min far døde. Jeg synes, det er svært at vænne sig til at være forældreløs.

Og så blev Danmark ramt af jordskælv. Jeg lå i min seng og var ved at vågne, da både seng og hus rystede. Umiddelbart tænkte jeg, at det måtte være sådan et jordskælv føltes – men det kunne det jo ikke være, for så kraftige jordskælv er der ikke i Danmark. Så overvejede jeg, om en tank eller andet tungt maskinel kunne være kørt forbi på vejen, men det syntes jeg nu heller ikke var særlig sandsynligt, eftersom vejen er blind og ender i en mose. Senere hørte jeg så i Nyhederne, at det rent faktisk var et jordskælv. Der var nu ikke noget, der væltede eller faldt ned her i huset, men jordskælvet vækkede husets teenager, og det er i sig selv noget af en præstation.

Hist hvor vejen slår en bugt …

Det her er et meget pænt hus:

Jeg kan bare bedre lide det her, der lå på samme sted tidligere:

- og som i øvrigt var mit barndomshjem.

At klappe kaje

Hvordan får man, ved en hvilken som helst social begivenhed, en small talk ævlende nitwit, som man absolut ikke gider snakke med, til at klappe kaje? Man ser interesseret på vedkommende, afbryder og siger:
“Står du i kø til toilettet?”

p.s. det virker på mig.

Højt til hest

Jeg gik til ridning i et års tid, da jeg var barn, og igen som ganske ung i ½ års tid. Jeg var, som så mange andre piger dengang, bidt af en gal hest, eller snarere naboens stolte gangere, der kærligt puffede til mig, når jeg gav dem rugbrød hen over stakittet. Det var jo ikke længe, jeg gik til ridning, dels havde jeg svært ved at begå mig blandt rideskolens hestepiger med deres smarte ridedress og overlegne holdning til mindre erfarne ryttere, og dels havde jeg en ondsindet rideskolelærer, der så en ære i at sætte mig op på de mest afsindige og rytterhadende kræ, der gang på gang forsøgte at kaste mig hen, hvor peberet gror med stor hovedrysten over mine manglende evner fra resten af rideholdet inkl. daværende kæreste og kærestetyv wannabe til følge. Jeg gav op og stoppede med at ride, og jeg har ikke siddet på en hest de sidste 26 år. I sommerferien vovede jeg mig dog op på en meget fredelig én af slagsen (den var faktisk så fredelig, at jeg ikke kunne få den op i trav, trods ihærdige forsøg), og det gik, som det ses nedenunder, ganske godt, trods svimmelhed.

Interview

Nu kunne man godt forledes til at tro, at et eller andet stort internationalt magazine har opdaget lille mig og bedt om et interview, meeen …. neeej, det er nu bare alle tiders tidsfordrivs-overspringshandlings-site (Facebook), der har kastet et genereret interview efter mig.

Kort over mærkværdigheder

Sidder man og keder sig foran skærmen og har brug for et lille underholdende break fra arbejdet, så kan man, med stor fornøjelse (synes jeg), tage et kig på MapOfStrange. Det er en side med mærkelige ting på Googles kort. Det viser sig nemlig, at billederne på Google Earth af og til gengiver højst mærkværdige ting og sager, og det er ikke kun korncirkler!

God påske

Grrrrr … mail

Min gmail nægter at virke i disse dage. (Måske er min pc blevet allergisk?) Jeg har oprettet en alternativ mailkonto, som kan bruges untill further notice: pvl@live.dk.

In your face …

Jeg har omsider fået taget mig sammen til at facebooke … Så kom og vær min ven!
