Oh, oh, oh - falling behind with the posts. I guess I'm in the sommarstangt mode. Sommarstangt means "closed for summer," but here it's a word. And important to know, because from what I can tell half the Swedish population seems to go on summer holiday during July & August. Government services and many businesses wind down, plodding along until the other half of the staffers return tanned and rested so that the other half can take their turns at vacation.
As an American it seem altogether too humane to me.
At the same time, as a former San Franciscan (quite the expensive place to live) and art educator (quite the underpaid profession), it's a good change of pace. I'm watching with fascination and appreciation as the population around me slows down and enjoys life.
But I'll get cracking at some new postings soon.
