I have slowly begun packing for my move in a weeks time. All my movies and video games went into boxes yesterday, and today I packed my books and cleared the stuff from underneath my soon-to-be-gone bed. So far, I have filled three boxes, and I have bought seven. Do I need all seven? No, I don't think so. Why did I buy seven, you might ask? Well, I wasn't sure how many I needed, so I got seven just to be on the safe side. The things on my dresser alone will fill one box, and I have to take good care of three items there: My Bollinger champagne, the champagne K gave me for my birthday last year, and my bottle of coconut rum. I will have to wrap two of the bottles, since the last one has its own box. Furthermore, there are a few things that I will struggle to find space for, but I will manage somehow. I am usually pretty good at making space for things anyway, so this won't be any different.

I have been binning things, though. Two pc's and one tv. I never used those three things anyway, so no reason to take them with me. I am happy with my PS4, laptop and Xbox One. I haven't used the Xbox in a while, though. I need to figure out if I want to keep it or sell it. It works fine, I just use my PS4 the most. I might just do a format and sell it to someone who will have more use for it than me. Speaking of video games.. It's been a while since I sat down and played a game for 12 hours straight, and it might take a while before I do that again, since most of the games I have now bore me. The last game I truly sat down and did 12 hours in, was Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. That happened about a year ago, I think. I am not quite sure, though. I do know that it was when I did a platinum trophy in the game, which took me 117 hours and a few minutes to get. These past few days and weeks, I haven't really had the desire to play any games for more than maybe fifteen minutes at a time. In some cases, I spent around thirty minutes in a game, and then I turned it off, because it kind of bored me. And also because I had some things to attend to. Namely my upcoming move and my education starting in august.

But so far, everything is going smoothly for the move.

One week to go!

I took a day out of my packing schedule to just relax, unwind and continue my job hunt. Yesterday, I was given confirmation as to what time I can move in to my new room. Noon on Saturday, which was the time I proposed to move in. All I need now is to pack some more, and make sure I have everything packed for Saturday. Realistically I need two more boxes, making it five in total of the seven boxes I bought, and I am almost at the end of my packing. All I need to pack is the stuff on my dresser, my food, kitchen stuff and the things in the small room just next to mine here. And, of course, my laptop, tv, soundbar and ps4, which I will unplug the day before the move.

All in all, I am almost ready. Just a few more things to sort out!

So it begins! My last week where I have spent the last 30-something years. I grew up not too far from where I am sitting now, about 2.2 miles away, plus a few feet. Am I going to miss it? A bit. There's something about the place where you grew up that will stick with you, always. I remember that feeling from when I lived in Scotland. There is a saying: "You can take the guy out of Greve, but you can't take the Greve out of a guy".. Why Greve? Because it's where I grew up. A small city, 20 minutes south of Copenhagen. The population here: 50.563 people, so it's a relatively large place, by Danish standards.

But now, I am moving to a place with 16.000 people, so a vast decrease in population. Am I looking forward to it? You bet!

Being Danish, I can enjoy some benefits, like tax funded health care and free dentist trips, if you are under the age of 18. I am not 18 anymore, but almost 37. That means I have to pay for my own dentist appointment. I have consistently been in the lower end of the salary range, so I simply couldn't afford dentists. That means I haven't been to one in at least 18 years.

I am not the healthiest person ever, which has had an impact on my teeth. Some are broken, while others have fallen out. Recently, the gum at one of my teeth has decided to recede. Not the end of the world at the moment, but IF it continues, I will have a problem and an exposed tooth neck, making my life painful and miserable. So what to do? Do I get the tooth removed? Do I get a crown? Or do I get a gum graft? I think the easiest procedure is to remove the tooth. I might look weird, but I will not have that issue to worry about. The rest of my teeth feel/look okay, so I am gonna think about what I do.

Anyway, hopefully it will change with different brushing technique, and with a softer brush.

My mother is getting new furniture tomorrow, and I have been drafted in to help put it together. That meant getting rid of her current sofa, which weighs.. Well, a lot. Luckily it's one of those sofas that can be separated, so I weren't going to haul the entire sofa down two flights of stairs assembled.

The first part of the sofa was the heaviest. At least 15 kilos of VERY unhandy furniture, which was a pain to get down to the container. But I managed to get it down, and lobbed into the container. The rest of the sofa was extremely easy, so it was done rather swiftly.

After a few hours, I went back home to pack some more. As I am typing this, I am 99% there. The final box is filled with my late fathers stuff, which I will go through later. I am bound to find some gems there, since he kept pretty much everything.

The final step in packing is my pots and pans, my food and my tech stuff. Those items will be packed on Friday!

Almost there!

When I bent over to spit toothpaste into the bathroom sink a few mornings ago, I noticed a gap between the backboard and the wall. Asked my brother if anything I can do and he suggested expanding foam. I never heard of it so I watched a million videos on how to use it with none addressing my particular situation.

I have now attempted that foam, waited 24 hours then tried to remove the expansion over the rim. What a fricking mess I've made. Itty bitty little critters were getting in with the gap. Many very tiny bugs that jumped like fleas but much tinier than a flea. Well I've stopped them from coming in but I can't walk in my bathroom without wanting to throw up at how awful I have made it look. Today I am going to attempt to putty it to get a smooth surface. I'm really not sure if I should use putty or caulk. I'm very tempted to just put masking tape on it and call it a fricken job NOT well done, but done never-the-less.

My next project is to learn how to dehydrate food. I want to make jerky or meat chips. They are very expensive to buy in packages and since I don't trust the food industry I want to make my own because they are delicious.

Before I can start - I have to research the machines to know what to buy and watch a bunch of videos on how to dehydrate what kinds of meats. So far I've learned that the meat has to be SUPER thin and you can get the texture of potato chips which is what I want. Also the first meats I will try will be salami, pepperoni and roast beef, maybe some chicken.

I'm an impatient person so doing all the research keeps me on the edge of excited anxiety.

Anyone here have any advise? (man that's a loaded question)

I can't think of any one person I hate. I let go the feeling of hate many many moons ago. I do however HATE LIKE HELL Big Pharma and The Food Industry. If you have Netlix there is a great show that shows behind the seens of American Government, many things most people do not know, the show is "The G Word" if you have Sling there is another docuseries called "While We Die". Both shows have only 6 episodes, they are not bias but showing fact from way back to now.

Back into the 1940 & 50's the sugar industry tried to tell us how good sugar is and how many of us fed or still feed our children the sugary poison believing the health benefits of the cereal? The ingredient lists on all products gives a percentage of how much calories, carbs, protein, fat is in the product but NOT sugar, they fought congress and won so you won't see how much percentage of sugar is in the product, only the grams. Sugar blamed Fat and so America went Fat Free or Low Fat and became an obese country. Sugar also disguised its name into many different "troses" ex: dextrose etc. Sugar in some form is also usually in the first 3 ingredients. A very profitable industry that could care less about our health because it is so profitable. There is so much more but most people don't even want to be informed so I will stop here with Sugar. The meat Industry is pretty powerful too and confuse you with things like Jimmy Dean Sausage is made by Tyson and so many other brands are all part of four major meat companies that distribute under many different names.

Big Pharma introduced Oxycotin as NON-addictive and a miracle drug. America became addicted. Salesmen to the doctors really believed it when they convinced doctors to buy and perscribe it. Doctor became addicted. Watching the fight with Big Pharma with the government or the FDA was like watching a Whale eat a minnow. BIG Pharma earned it's name and made a fortune on the pain clinics and sale of Oxycotin and of course the already drug addicts had a hayday with it too.

It doesn't matter who are President is but there are many members in Congress that are share holders or officers in these big profit making companies. The shows tell you which member. A bit shocking.

The Pandemic wiped out an awful lot of Americans or made their small business fail while all along making huge profits for Industries that didn't even need the money. The PPE, Payroll Protection Employees program spent billions of dollars in low interest payroll loans for small businesses, yet so many failed as Americans were dying. Guess how many members of Congress got those small business loans to the huge company industry? A lot and they get named too in the documentary.

America is not ready to be woke. I'm not always proud to be an American or even a human for that matter. I don't know if there is a country with a goverment that really cares for its people. I wish I did.

europeans wouldn't need nato and the usa could take lost money spent on bullshit nato defense for getting mental help for all the troubled people here. Some of the money could be used to fight the war on drugs from china entering through biden's southern port of drug entry in texas. Let europe defend itself. Arm europe to protect America.
