I'm doing the last strains of the AIVD puzzle. Tomorrow's the last day we can hand it in.
Besides that I've got another temp job...

I'm fine. I've got all the branches with foliage down. I now have to bring down the remainder of the tree one log at a time.

Managed to cut my lip while licking an envelope.

We're in the news again - a fierce thunderstorm has so far caused 2 or 3 casualties in The Netherlands. In my street, 2 trees blew over. It's been 11
years since we last had a storm of this ferocity.

On saturday nothing worked, due to a migration at our provider. Domain redirection was not working, subdomains were not working. By now or in the next
24 hours it should be working when you use

Haaa, that's the reason why I couldn't reach this place. Glad everything's back in order.

Hurray!
I'm at BF's again, for his sister's bachelorette party. We're going to a silver smith to make rings.

I'm fine. Lots of work recently, but it's a good thing.

I'm alright. My wife has just started a new job and that's pretty exciting. She's moved over to the consulting side of education. We've had a cool
change since Monday after a long heat wave culminating in above 40°C temperatures over the weekend. I'm just working away on my physics book at the
moment and trying to save our garden from being destroyed by this weather.

I'm at the temp job again since the woman I'm replacing has fallen ill. Today was very wet - I got soaked getting there, then again I got soaked
leaving there, I got soaked for a third time when I went to Geldrop, and then I was soaked a 4th time but that was in the shower.
Been looking into bookbinding and book restauration: at a tiny second-hand shoppe I found a first edition of a Heinz (silly newspaper comic about a
cat that ran for quite a long time). Only thing is - it smells terrible. How can I get the smell out without buying kitty litter or digging up our
misplaced blow-dryer? Hmm...

I've got a couple of books, whose bindings fell apart, that I rebound myself. They don't look professional, but I got a lot of satisfaction out of
repairing them.

Great!
There's at least one book I have that I'm considering to have fixed - it's a first edition of the 1938 novel Karakter by Bordewijk, my favourite book.
It's very, very high in my most prized possessions - unfortunately the binding on one side's not too good anymore...
I bought that for 15 euros at a second-hand bookstore, which I felt was "expensive to my taste but worth it". Just found it auctioned for 175 euros.
