Tough choices in life

Originally uploaded by sebilden

My new amazing workplace in Malmö, Sweden (the new town I am moving to) has regular “Swedish” brewed coffee.

But, if they had better coffee machinery, we might not be able to say “we need to go out for a coffee”.

My wise previous co-worker Stefan said “I refrained from buying you a king-size candy pack at the airport, since I did not want to rob you of the little hike from the screen to the kiosk. You might enjoy the break more than the candy.”

Wisdom, schmisdom. Note to self: buy candy in bulk, keep in secret storage at work.

(My brother’s becoming quite the photographer. The inspirational image comes from his photofeed.)

Having assembled two-thirds of the A-Team that will build a hyperfunctional kitchen in our Malmö apartment, me and Luisa are now looking for a carpenter.

Luisa will be the project manager, leading and supervising the progress on-site. Kirsten will be the AutoCADing architect, and also function as technical advisor.

1. Ideally, among the people we know there will be a carpenter, perfect for this.
2. Second-best, among the people we know, someone’ll have had the perfect carpenter in their employ, and being able to recommend said craftsperson.
3. Finally, someone’s relative might’ve had a good experience hiring building help, and can make a recommendation.

Do you know a good carpenter? Please, please Lazyweb, I invoke thee to help me.
