Did I say that I had nothing planned this week? Not quite right. There was one little thing.

I mentioned that my parents bought a new printer, right? I had to go install that. Not a big job, normally. But when you can’t see a bloody thing then it gets a little more complicated. Oh boy. Did I tell you about how I halped my mother set up a facebook account when I was over there for my brother’s birthday dinner? They have my old monitor and it’s a small one, 15 inches I think. And they use Internet Explorer not Firefox so I couldn’t zoom. I literally had to lean over so my face was right up to the screen. And squint. My mother couldn’t help laughing at it. Although she did also offer her sympathy sand said that of course it wasn’t funny.

Anyway, I got the printer installed at least. Everything up and running. No one was home when I got there, so I had peace and quiet to do it. And right as I finished writing a note to my parents, the door opened and my dad and uncle Jens came in. I didn’t know he was visiting, but nice to say hi to him. He’s leaving today already, though. He’s not feeling too well and apparently there’s a big snowstorm coming tomorrow. So he wanted to drive home before that.

Afterwards I walked up to the playground. It started snowing softly and I had good times with the animals.

How can you have anything but good times with them?

But now I think I have the week off. Nothing more to do. Except have fun with goats. Oh yeah.

Nothing has happened today. I have relaxed and wasted time and pondered the great questions of the universe, like “if a goat faints in the woods and there’s no one around to hear it, does it make a baah?”. And so on.

Speaking of goats, as we clearly were and you can’t prove otherwise, here is a new video of the boys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0kqRXzdUT4. See them get their first taste of bread. And see Vanilje snatch a bite right out of the mouth of one of her boys. There’s always competition for the food when there are goats around. Also some good scratching. Fun like only goat kids could be.

I have nothing planned for next week I think. The next eye laser torture treatment is in two weeks. Doctor appointment and cataracts examination in March. So now I’ll just take it easy and try to stay afloat.

Happy swimming, everybody.
