“I’d like to have your life,” said Robert to me as I ran out this door this morning. I was on my way to an art/cultural event at the American ambassador’s residence. What could I do but agree, for my life is good. Thanks to freelancing, I can keep a flexible schedule and partake of opportunities like this one when they come up. As for the residence, we were there to tour an art show there that featured contemporary artists from the US. We had fika (coffee and sweets) and music by a young trio from the Stockholm music school. It was all an excellent way to start a chilly autumn Tuesday. Now I am back to work and there is drilling going on outside my window that seems to be boring directly into my brain. The peace of the morning is rapidly evaporating.
Lucky life
