Paskha – as good this year as it has been every year.

Painted eggs, and then herring and devilled eggs and potatoes for lunch, and paella for dinner, and paskha and a lemon merengue pie.

The same procedure as last year? The same procedure as every year.

It’s the best time of the year.

When I signed up to take care of the scout club’s accounting, I thought at first I’d do it from home. I’d forgotten just how much paperwork and printouts is involved, though. My desk at home is covered with computer peripherals and unread magazines, leaving no room to spread out all the paper. So I do it at the scout club.

Initially I went there while there were others present, but now I’m realizing I get more done, faster and more conveniently, when it’s just me.

There are actual desks in various parts of the building, but mostly located at places inconveniently distant from the printer room, like the attic meeting rooms. So I just sprawl out in the main hall. The floor is more than clean enough to sit on.

The Easter witch tradition appears to be dying out. This year we weren’t visited by a single one, and our bowl of candy for appeasing the witches went uneaten.

We’re a week into April and we have yet another batch of snow, thick enough for the grass to barely peek through. Aren’t we done with this winter yet?

The Sortera head office is in Liljeholmen.

First day on a new assignment, at Sortera. From environmentally friendly urban deliveries to environmentally friendly industrial and constructional recycling. I’m excited to learn all about it.
