When you think this year has been a mess, but it’s only just passed January…
My 5 year old wearing swim goggles while practicing backstroke in an indoor swimming pool, floating on their back with one arm raised out of the water as they move forward.
On our way to swim class, my 5 year old kid and I were talking about swim competitions, gold medals and how much he would like a gold #medal like #davidpopovici got. He also he said that taking someone else’s medal doesn’t make you a winner, makes you a thief. 😶
An orange-haired toddler sitting on the ground at a carnival game, crying angrily with fists clenched after losing. Colorful stuffed prizes, a gold chalice, a spinning game wheel, and ‘Sorry, try again’ tickets are visible behind him.
Toddler tantrum energy.
A snowy train platform in Norway this winter afternoon. Train tracks curve to the right, bordered by overhead power lines and dark metal poles silhouetted against a deep blue sky. Near the horizon, a soft band of yellow and orange light marks the returning daylight. Snow covers the ground, with footprints along the platform, and a single person walks in the distance.
15:30. Norway. The light is back. ❄️🌤️
Me trying to convince ChatGPT that what’s happening now is actually happening 🤦♀️
And if you wish upon a star..link satellite, does Elon Musk have to pay for the wish? 😆
I saw what appeared like a shooting star this evening when looking for the northern lights outside the door. Was it this? edition.cnn.com/2025/12/20/s...
Just a few more hours until the light returns #wintersolstice #followthesun
My current view. 4 pm and pitch black in Norway. There was a bit of light from 10 to 3 PM. Things should look brighter after December 21. Literally.
Think that I did this in NOTEBOOK before!
A print screen of my new shortcut from Sharepoint folder to Fabric lakehouse files.
Ah, look at this!
Heads-up to anyone still down in the porridge of #Fabric, we got all these shortcut possibilities now - notice OneDrive and Sharepoint! Brb as I am currently re-doing my solutions.
Yay!
Morning view from my kitchen window overlooking a peaceful neighborhood street that slopes down toward a misty lake. The lake reflects the soft golden light of sunrise, surrounded by trees in autumn colors. Low fog drifts above the water and fields in the valley, with rolling hills and scattered clouds glowing under a clear blue sky in the distance.
Celebrating that it’s Wednesday and the only thing on my agenda, after work, is a yoga session. Also, this view!
The first 3 lines gave me anxiety.
Enjoy your trip!

Annie chilling on the sofa
As my daughter is sitting on the sofa watching tv with her Resusci Annie, the CPR doll from this week’s swimming camp, I am reminded of this story of its famous face:
