Wednesday, April 24: Stockholm, to Amsterdam

I arrived at Stockholm and the process was pretty smooth. I 
got through customs and border security pretty smoothly. It’s now 7:30 PM for some reason my phone has not converted automatically to their time which is six 
hours ahead so my plane starts boarding in 10 minutes, but I was able to find, a water station and also a plug-in station where I could 
plug in 
my USB right into the wall, which is pretty convenient because they don’t have them in the airport the United States that I know of. Well, that connecting flight I was pretty miserable. The guy in front of me acted like an entitled boomer in the worst variety kept banging the chair took up all the space in there luggage area and I just hit a wall where I was just I felt like the cabin pressure was high, but I was holding on… Anyway, once I landed, I thought I could just walk out somewhere catch the train but no, I just kept walking and walking and walking and walking out how to get the Sim to work. I know it now works. I can get the Internet, Facebook and Google Maps but no texting or phone calls so oh well , I finally found a place to get coffee next to the Starbucks. I was gonna go to Starbucks but I decided to go to a place it’s local so I’m waiting for Bob who said he could pick me up 11:07 AM Amsterdam time. 

Tuesday, April 23: Heading to Stockholm and Amsterdam

This morning, I got a little up a little early and Pat was still in my place 

snoozing on the futon. And I helped him finish his state taxes, not on some energy bars and did some last-minute packing stuff and got my laundry out of the dryer. I didn’t fold it. I just threw it on 

the bed because time caught up to me. Well, I called the train which came on time and I got the new Work with no difficulties. I am found my terminal 

and called AT&T and they remove the block on my Sim card and I did the eSIM but can’t really activate it till I land and I have to turn off roaming 

and do some technical stuff so I don’t get super huge roaming charges. Then I decided to eat at Mexican restaurant place, I charged my phone. It’s 1:21 PM Eastern time so I guess about an hour 
and a half. I’m 

   going to the terminal and see if my TSA pre-came through. I think my eSIM is working because I have to turn it off until I land. It’s now


4:34 PM. It’s almost time to start boarding which is at around 4:40 PM. People already standing up to get ready to leave this flight. Looks like it’s pretty packed. They’re announcing a lot of names for document 

identification. Anyhow, I charged up my phone I ate a delicious burrito nice fat burrito so I shouldn’t really need to eat much 

of anything on this flight. I’m hoping I can get myself nice and tired. I put some electrolyte into my yoga and I’m drinking


 some of that while waiting for boarding process to start. I talked to a couple people on the phone, and I’m finally ready to get going. I attempted


to enroll in the Wi-Fi at this airline, but it just never got stable and I could never sign on to pay for it. So right now this is an off-line version. I had a really nice dinner considering it’s an airport 

and plus occupied adjust things and get comfortable, etc. It’s now 747 Eastern 

time. The phone is still stuck in Eastern standard time because I have no reception 

at this point. I’m hoping now after I watch this movie Argo, I can get the sleep I’m trying bit of this coffee, but I don’t have enough cream so I’m probably gonna Drink it. It’s now 1145 Eastern time and 3 AM Norway time actually it’s 5:43 AM Norwegian time. I finally got some Wi-Fi up but it’s only for the last hour of flight because I couldn’t get it to connect.

Monday, April 22: Last Day @ Work w/ Many Errands

Today I woke up and took my sweet time getting to work. I didn’t get 

to my place Mike’s place till after 9 o’clock. 9:00 AM that is. I got the Mike’s and he built up a lot of cardboard boxes and I disposed of them because he got a bunch 

of orders on Friday and Saturday. He put away most of the food, but not all of it. I put the rest of them away and then realized I needed to do his blanket,    I went to the CVS to get Mike   a  couple of items and get extra keys made  for him because 

he lost his own pair of keys. Had to give the original of one of the keys because it was kind of sticky , the replacement key was sticky. Anyway, it’s a nice day but cool outside. I’m going to get my haircut and only place I can get

 it done. There are three people here already. I will sit here for up to about 20 minutes and then if I’m still not served, I’m running back to the laundromat 

to change the clothes at the laundromat nearby to the dryer. I timed it a 26 minutes and that’s what I’m doing. OK, I did successfully complete my task 

at hand. I got both the laundries done and return. Got my haircut done and 

managed to put the bedspread fitted sheet on without 

completely pulling my hair out. Oops right I have no hair. Anyway, the next thing I ate lunch and then we were trying to get his new phone to work. I put in the

 Sim card then he was calling his customer service and they repeated the same thing that we did put the Sim card with a little cut away on the bottom left-hand 

corner then I had to leave because it was 3:45 PM in my class starts. Well, the classes top at Clarice who haven’t been taught under in a while. The

 room was hot, but there was plenty of air so that was good wasn’t too crowded either. After class, we hung out for a while and found out that our 30 day count T-shirts for him because Mary 

sold her on the mannequin that was excellent so so Tina got us our shirts and 

we talked about my trip to Europe and Tina is going to be visiting Scotland

 to see, her favorite Taylor Swift and then visit Iceland with Byron so that should be interesting. She’s doing that in May. We proceeded to go back to Mary‘s house and I skip the AA meeting 
because I had too much going on in my mind and I wanted to spend a little quality time with Mary. I then left around 830 and got home and proceeded to be all undecided about what the pack and not pack even though it already packed everything mostly.I threw in my laundry and Pat was going to come over and do taxes but he showed up too late and we both just passed out and went to bed. Busy day. .
