Snow Hollow

February 15th, 2026

Good goat times today. A snowstorm has moved over the country, so today was a snow day. Big snow everywhere.
Thankfully the paths to the playground were cleared. It’s not a straight path, it sweves and curves, so when everything is covered by snow it gets really hard for me to.. stay on the path.
But that wasn’t a problem today. And while it was freezing cold of course, at least the wind wasn’t too bad. The snow gets tiring after a while, but honestly a lovely snow day like today feels a lot better than the bone crushing wind chill we had last week.
And Jeanette was back, hooray! She’s not quite at full strength, but it’s just good to have her back. So much nicer to get to the goats and they already have fresh water. And the goats were all good. Got them out in the snow for a bit. Treats and snacks and cuddles. Some headbutting and running around. Sinking into deep snow. Pretty lovely day. Only thing missing was some sunshine. And maybe some visitors. It’s winter vacation in Denmark, that and the deep snows kept people away I guess.
But all in all a lovely day with the goats. And now it’s definitely soup time, it doesn’t get much more soupweathery than a snow day.

I didn’t watch the supper bowling, or the halftime show. But I read that Bad Bunny’s show was the is the most watched halftime show in history. I have not fact checked this, but I’m going to assume it’s true because I like it. Try harder next time, racists and bigots.
I really really really do not understand the point of this being controversial or offensive to anything. The fkn stupidest timeline indeed.
And then you have an alternative halftime show. So the other side can profit of all the people who want to ‘protest’. You think Turning Point put on an alternative because they’re THE GOOD GUYS and super patriotic or whatever? No, they did it because they know the ragebait will get theme viewers and attention and profit. Just like all the ragebait memes about the ‘horriblet hings’ that ‘the other side’ are doing. Just designed to get you to share them so they can profit from lies and propaganda. It’s such a shtshow.
The rich are getting richer and the people that are supposed to lead you to better days are profitting from the downfall of America.
But at least NFL quarterbacks run on time.

Got an hour fortyfive on the bike today. So that was pretty good. Tired muscles after snowtrekking yesterday. But it was fine. I enjoy the burn. Trying to intenify. Work harder, not smarter. That’s my motto. *taps finger on nose* always thinking.
Oh and happy birthday greetings to Helle today. What a difference she has made to my life in the few months we have known each other.

Oh hey, it’s February 10th.
If you want to send me a Valentines card you better get a move on. If you hurry up you might be able to get me a card by Valentine’s Day, 2027.
I still have not received a single piece of actual mail in all of 2026.
I am not sure how much of that is due to the problem with the missing name on the mailbox, how much is due to the big changeover in Denmark where the national postal service stopped delivering letters and gave over the service to a private company (that is being absolutely SLAMMED by everyone for doing a horrible job) and how much is due to just.. mail not really a thing anymore.
But I’m pretty sure I have missed a christmas card or two from some of you out there, so sorry about that.

Got an hour and a half on the bike today. Two days in a row again. It’s tough, but it works well for me with two consecutive days in the beginning of the week, and then one in the weekend. Trying to really make an effort now. At least I’m doing something!
I think my blood sugar readings are improving, not so sure about the blood pressure. But I’ll try my best before my next doctor’s visit, in March.
Physically getting better and better. Mentally? Eh, not so much. That’s still a struggle. But hey, one day a day and all that.
Been feeling not quite myself again the last couple of days. Do you ever get that feeling that you’re not yourself? Like maybe someone replaced and the real you is boudn and gagged in the janitor’s closet?
Or maybe you’re an android. Or a replicant. But you don’t know you’re a replicant because you don’t dream of electric sheep or unicorns.
Or maybe you’re mutating. Maybe the radiation from your microwave is slowly turning you into the next step of human evolution. Now I know that sounds crazy, mainly because I don’t have a microwave.
The smoke detector doesn’t seem to be detecting anything coming out of my butt either.
Anyway. I’m probably still Lasse. Maybe I should get my name tattooed on my forehead so it’s easy to check in case I’m not sure who I am.
Imagine if one day you looked in the mirror and you had someone else’s name stamped on your foread. You’d have to go and return yourself, maybe you could get store credit.
Alright alright. I might not feel quite myself, but at least I can still write long dumb facebook posts. Who wants to eat, hooray!

Rest in peace James Van Der Beek. That is just.. I’m a little speechless. That’s so sad. So young. Ugh.
I know it may seem silly in today’s light, but Dawson’s Creek was a very very important show to me. I don’t want to go into all the details, but it deeply impacted my life. It seems like a lifetime ago, a different life. I was in a very troubled and very dark time in my life when that show came to Denmark.
This is just heartbreaking. Life ain’t fair.
I am very Crying Dawson right now.

Good goat times today. Another snow day. The last few days the forecast had been saying we’d be getting a ton of snow today. On the day it was adjusted way down. But there was some snowfall. And of course still a lot on the ground.
And a colder wind today. But not too bad. Honestly I love a good snow day with goats. The snow wears out its welcome fairly quick, but it’s nice to get some days with a real good amount of snow and just spend time in it with the goats. When I was young I loved the snow a lot, now I can’t take the cold. But there’s still some love of snow in me.
So the order of the day was lots of snacks and cuddles. Making sure everyone got their fair share.
We had a little visitor too, a young boy with a parent or teacher or something. He got to pet both Sky and Luna, so he was pretty happy.
Just a sweet little snow day. Now I’m about ready for spring, please.
But some soup will warm me up for now.

Hey hey! Look at that. I actually got mail. I do believe this is the first private piece of mail I have received in all of 2026.
It is bittersweet though. A christmas card from Tim and ELLEN
Those of you who are friends with Ellen know that she is in the hospital after a serious medical incident. I am sending all my love and good thoughts for you, Ellen. I really hope you will recover and you’ll be able to come home and things will be okay.
I donated to their gofundme when it was first posted, but I’ll post a link to it in the comments, if any of you would want to contribute to it, even just a bit, that would be lovely. Ellen is one of the good ones. One of those people I have gotten to know through the goat circles, one of those names that are constantly there with love and support and kindness. There are many of you and I treasure you. So, send your love to Ellen. She needs it.
And I’m happy to have confirmation that I’m able to receive mail. It has often taken a long time for mail to get to me from America, but a christmas card at almost Valentines, I think that may be a record. The huge delay caused by the switch from the national postal service to a private company may have helped here. If there hadn’t been that huge delay then the card would have probably gotten here while I didn’t have a name on my mailbox and then it would have been returned. So hey there’s still hope if anyone else sent me cards that I haven’t gotten yet.
Thank you Ellen and Tim, and a merry christmas and Happy New Year to you too. Please get well.

Got an hour fortyfive on the bike today. Phew. It was a struggle today. Muscles felt tired, I got winded faster, my head was hurting. I don’t know if the double-days of exercise I’ve been doing earlier in the week, or trekking in the snow, or what. But it was hard today.
But I powered through. And when it feels like it’s hard, it als ofeels like it’s effective. The burnfeels good. And I got good results on the scales. Which is good for motivation. I felt like the 5-2 diet wasn’t really doing much for me, so along with ramping up the exercise I have also dialled up the diet. I miss cheese. But seeing and feeling the results is nice. So I’ll keep at it.
The sun is shining outside, which is rather lovely.
And I have Danish tomatoes. I don’t know if they’ll be any good, it’s still too early in the year for good tomatoes probably. I stopped eating tomatoes a while ago because I was worried the acidity was doing bad stuff to my teeth. But now that my teeth are better monitored and cared for, I figure I can try to start eating them again? Some of you may remember how much I love tomatoes. A plate full of tomatoes and cucumber would satisfy me as a good meal during some of my previous diets.
My whole life has been a big struggle with weight. Being a fat kid. Being a fat adult. Diabetic. It has ruined a lot for me. The rollercoaster of losing and gaining and losing and gaining. The damage it has done to my body, not to mention my mind.
But hey, here I am. Doing my best.

Happy Valentimes Day everybuddies.
Have I mentioned lately that I love you? I know I’m not good at keeping up with posts and comments and messengers and reciprocatting (meow). But I can’t understate how much you all mean to me, how wonderful it is to have a place where you feel like people care about you and are happy to see you.
I have had periods of extreme loneliness and isolation in my life. It is a deep pain that have left deep scars. But it is healing to know there are people who feel you have value, that you’re worth caring about and loving. People who WANT you around.
And I love seeing your love for your families and animals and the things you care about. There’s a lot of negative aspects to social media, but I love when people use it for positive things. And for me it’s a very positive thing to have you in my life.
I don’t know if I will ever get to a place where I feel like I’m worth loving. But I feel loved. And I love you for that.
Now let me think of a fart joke to make up for all that sentimentality.
An unpopular fart walks into a bar and everyone looks up and someone yells “YOU STINK”
I’ll workshop that.

Good goat times today. It seems our girls are doing better, thankfully. Not sure they’re completely back to normal. But they were all up and around. Eating, pooping, running, butting heads. Pretty good.
I suspect they may need a hoof trimming pretty badly, that may have had something to do with their reluctance to get up. Or maybe it’s the cold.
Man, that cold. With the windchill it was down below -10C/14F. Bonechilling.
No Jeanette today, she is sick again. When I got there the goats had hay and food. I am not sure if that was leftovers from the weekend or if someone had gotten there before me and fed them. Jeanette’s replacements usually don’t come that early though, so I don’t know.
Their water buckets were frozen solid.
No staff was showing up, so I went down to see if I could find water. The door to the toilet was unlocked thankfully. The sink in there was tiny though, it would have taken me half an hour to fill up a bucket in there. Thankfully a worker person came by. There are workers working in the main playgroudn building sometimes, there has been some extensive water damage. Anyway, I asked if he knew a better place to get water. And he said there was a kitchen. When I told him I couldn’t see very well, he helped me get to the kitchen and he filled my two buckets for me. He was very nice. I’m not sure I have ever been inside that main buildnig before. Certainly not like it is now, completely emptied out as they work on the floors I think. Renovations because of the water damage.
Anyway, I’m just glad I got the buckets of water for the goats, they were pretty thirsty.
We took a trip out to the chicken coop area too. Someone had left the gate there slightly ajar and Sky squeezed through. So i figured I might as well open it up and let the bigger girls in there too. They very rarely get to go in there, so the vegetation is pretty untouched. But then most of it is withered and dead right now of course. But the goats got to explore some fairly unfamiliar territory, so that was nice.
After the goat trip I had a big event. But I’m going to cliffhanger that for you, because I am frozen solid and I need some soup. So I’ll tell you about that later. Soup’s up!

Today was my big museum date with Helle!
It was a really nice time. I don’t like being around most people, but Helle is always good company. She has been so kind to me, helped me so much, and is always understanding how my limitations and special needs. And she’s just super nice.
She came up to the playground to get me. The museum is two buildings over from where I live, so it was right on the way home from the goats.
It’s a museum of the history of Gellerup, the housing complex and the area. And it is literally an apartment. It’s in an apartment in one of the blocks. And it’s made to be like one of the old apartments. And then with lots of stuff from over the years. I think Helle moved into this area in 1973, before I was even born.
Anyway, she showed me around the place and told me about the various things on display, photos and stuff. Told me about some of the history. I think it’s pretty clear she’s proud of the work they do with that museum, and understandably so. It was really cool and interesting. I only wish my eyesight was good enough to really see all the photos and read the texsts and just see it all better. But it was nice to have a good guide.
There’s quite a lot of interesting history of the place. It’s kind of a controversial area. In Denmark it’s one of 2-3 places that are considered ‘infamous ghettoes’. There’s a LOT of prejudice about the neighbourhood. And I mean, it’s not like it’s come from nothing. Even now, years into the plans of improving the place, I still see it on the news from time to time. But when you see people talking about the place, outsiders, it seems like some people think it’s a dangerous place that should be avoided. And that’s just laughably untrue.
Anyway, enough rambling. The point is, it’s another thing to be thankful to Helle for. It was interesting and cool, and it was nice to get out of the cold! And she had saved the chocolate that came with the flowers I got her to thank her for all the help last year, so we shared those. Yum!
Only mishap was that the elevator was out of order when we got there, and museum apartment is on.. I think it was 5th or 6th floor? So we got a little exercise going up the stairs. Elevator was fixed by the time we left so we didn’t have to walk down at least.
Once again, very grateeful that Helle came into my life.

Got an hour forty on the bike today. Good going, ramped up the intensity in the intervals. Just feels good to have music you love in your ears and feeling the physical burn, taking your mind off the mental burn.
Also got a grocery delivery. Pepsi, fruits and vegetables mostly. I sprung for Danish cucumbers. They’re twice the price of the other ones, but it looks like they are much nicer. I like a lean cucumber. A long thin one. I don’t like the short chubby ones. Shut up.
Started buying clementines too. Nice little snack.
Doing my best to get healthier again.
I miss pizza.

Helle posted some photos from the museum. It’s pretty neat how it’s an actual apartment and then inside it’s like part exhibit and part just how the apartment would have been back years ago. It’s literally like walking into history.

Got an hour twentyfive on the bike today. Two days in a row. A bit rough on the legs, but I’m trying to step up my game.
Physically getting stronger and stronger. Mentally, eh not so great. Still fighting that depression. And now I’m having problems posting videos on Facebook. Can’t seem to post any on the goat page. It is causing me frustration. And there are other things frustrating me. The world, for example.
Tired, frustrated, sad. Boo urns.
And it looks like we may have a snowstorm coming in the future. This planet is cooked, can we have another?

Oh yeah, had one mishap during the exerise. As you may remember, I like to work my rod while I’m on the bike. The arm exercise bar. It has a pretty powerful coil and I didn’t get a good grip (Normally I try to get a good grip on my rod) and so on end slipped from my hand and it recoiled and hit me right in the chest. Basically like a steel punch to the chest.
It wasn’t that bad, but it will probably be sore later. I’m just surprised it didn’t crack any bones. Maybe my chest plate is stronger than my ribs.

Good goat times today. Another cold one. But not too bad when you’re out of the wind. When you’re in the wind? Bone chilling.
Jeanette still out sick. So I had to take care of the goaties again on my own. They were all sitting outside when I got there. I don’t know why they wouldn’t rather sit inside in their straw when it’s cold, but maybe they like the fresh air!
Their water buckets were frozen solid of course, so I went and got them fresh water. This time I knew where to go so that was no problem.
We had some sweet visitors too. Kids in the pen. They were more interested in the blocks of ice that I had emptied from the water buckets than in the goats though. At least not all ice is bad..
When I got home I did a little organising in the apartment. Got some stuff to throw out and some to take down to the storage room. Whne that’s done then I think I’m almost done with unpacking. Hey, I’ve only been here what. four months? Sheesh
Now it’s soup time. Defrosting Lasse.

I am very frustrated that I can’t post videos on the facebox page. You probably don’t know this about me, since I am so subtle and hide it so well, but I am a very needy person and I need the validation of people saying “what a cute video”. I am always about 10 seconds away from succumbing to thoughts of “I am the worst person ever and no one could ever love me and the world would be a better place if I weren’t here”. I’m like a balloon that needs constant inflation or I’ll just deflate to nothingness.
I also like feeling that I make people happy with the videos.
Sigh.
And trying to talk to fb support is like trying to talk Kid Rock into the Rocknroll Hall Of Fame. Ain’t nobody listening.

Got an hour fortyfive on the bike today. So that’s pretty good.
Especially considering I was thinking of skipping today. The day today, not just exercise today. Last night I was feeling depressed and sad and decided to set my alarm to NOPE and just sleep through today.
But I managed to get out of bed in the morning anyway. And did the exercise. So that’s good.
And I was able to post a video to the goat page. I hope the problem is fixed and it wasn’t just because it was a short video. We’ll see I guess.
Trying not to let things get to me too much. Clearly doing a great job! One day a day.

Soccerball season starts today. Going to see if I can get a streaming account set up and watch the game. Other than that no big plans, just trying to take care of things that need to be taken care of on the computer and online. With how much free time I have it’s amazing how I always end up not getting things done. I am an excellent time mismanager. Like for example writing this pointless facebook update instead of doing stuff I should do. Hooray.
At least the fb video problem seems to be fixed, so that’s a relief.
Have a lazy Sunday, everybuddies.

Oh. Hello. I guess. I blacked out again. Trying to put the pieces back together. Where am I. What day is it. What was I doing. Fuck. I guess I have to go to the doctor at some point. It’s a scary feeling, not knowing really where and when you are. I think.. I was dreaming.
I can see I was eating. And I was writing a post about watching the Mel Brooks documentary. And I had the sportsball game running. Did I pass out. Or fall asleep. Or.
It’s Sunday right. Sunday evening. I have to put everything back together in my head.
Things slowly coming back.
I was watching the first half of the game. Second half is running now.
Have to. find myself.
I know I have had blackouts before. I thought they were done after I stopped taking TMG. But I haven’t been taking it since the last ones. I don’t know what’s wrong with me.
I was going to.. do something during halft time. Half time is 15 minutes. Was I out for 15 minutnes? I’m pretty sure I dreamt. Was I asleep?
Sigh. It’s scary. And knowing I have to do something about it is troubling.
I’m trying to.. remember the new playground. I have the old playground in my head. From flashback videos? I can’t picture the new playground. I can picture the walk to there but. Yes there it is. Walking the path in my head to find my way back to the memory. It’s creepy. There it is. The train wagon on top of the hill. The two pens. Coming back to me..
Ugh. This sucks. I was just sitting here watching the game.
Just measured my blood sugar and pressure. Too high, but not way higher than it has been usually as I have been struggling to get it back to where it’s supposed to be. Not really out of the ordinary for me the past few months, not sure it has anything to do with it.
Things are coming back to me. It’s Sunday evening yes.
Ah, I can see that I noted a time down in my text file. I did that when I started getting that feeling I get before blackouts. So yeah. I did go into that blackout then. The time I noted down was 18:51. It’s 19:40. But I have been more or less back in my head for 20ish minutes. Half an hour? So I was out for.. Thirtyish minutes?
It’s a scary and disorientating feeling when you’re not sure what time it is, when you are, what you were doing, what you’re supposed to be doing. Scattered pieces of a puzzle and you have to try to make it all fit back together again. And not give in to the fear that you’re out of your mind forever and you’re never going to get back to your normal self.
Okay. It’s Sunday evening. I don’t really have plans after the soccer game. The week is pretty much done. Starting to remember everything again.
Must have blackout shortly after posting the Yogi flashback on the goat page.
But I can’t think of anything that would have triggered it. I haveen eating.
Ugh. I was hoping this was behind me.
Not a great way to end the week.
