Finished reading: Third Voice by Cecilia Börjlind 📚

I enjoyed the second book in the series. This is a good crime thriller, and I like the pace and style of the writing. I’m going to continue in book 3 tonight.

My Day in Three for today:

  1. I went out for a short run today. I’m so fed up with not running that I wanted to try it again to see where I’m at. I did a 20-minute run at a very slow pace to check how my recovery from my injury is progressing. The pain isn’t gone, but it’s much better than it was eight weeks ago. I will discuss with the physiotherapist tomorrow how to progress from here.
  2. I went out to see my daughter‘s indoor hockey matches. She played two games today with her team, and they won both.
  3. I’ve started packing for my next ski trip. Like last month, I’m going to Austria again this Wednesday. This time with two friends. A boys-only trip, I definitely look forward to. The weather forecast looks promising; they are predicting half a meter of snow this week.

My Day in Three for today:

  1. Saturday morning was filled with the usual Saturday morning activities, including grocery shopping with the local merchants. We had sunny weather, so my wife and I went for a walk just before lunch. We like walking together and catching up on everything that happened during the week.
  2. I’m tired after the past week and read my book on the couch in the afternoon. Halfway through the final chapters, I fell asleep. I hope to finish the book tonight.
  3. The whole family was home for dinner, including my son‘s girlfriend. We had fun at the table and played a game afterward. The rest of the evening was very relaxing.

My Day in Three for today:

  1. I worked from home today to save myself the commuting time from home to the office. It was still a long day, from 8 AM till a little after 6 PM, but it was good to be with my family right after work.
  2. I helped both my kids install their new iPhones. They didn’t need help restoring the backup from the previous iPhone, but they didn’t understand anything about what an eSIM is. For me, the SIM switching was pretty straightforward, but I doubt it would be for non-tech-savvy people.
  3. I finished this Friday night by doing some grocery shopping because we have a busy weekend ahead by doing them tonight. I at least have one mandatory errand done before the weekend starts.

My Day in Three for today:

  1. Today is my last day in Sitges. I didn’t sleep too well after yesterday’s late-night dinner with my team. I’m not an evening person, so I always struggle in the morning after going to bed late the night before.
  2. Today’s meetings ended just after lunch, and after three days of rain, the sun finally broke through the clouds. It was nice to have some spare time to walk along Sitges’ boulevard and enjoy the sunshine without a coat. I don’t get this at home in January, for sure.
  3. 🛫 Barcelona – Amsterdam 🛬. I’m on the last flight out to Amsterdam right now and using the onboard WiFi to write this post. As always, when returning home, I’m thinking about how grateful I am for what I get to do professionally and where I get to go, yet there is no place like home. I look forward to being back with my family later tonight.
