I talked Olof into watching the old ’90s* sitcom, Evening Shade, and two episodes in I have to say that it’s every bit as good as I remembered. Sure beats watching the Braves lose in extra innings, as I was doing a half-hour ago.

The weather today was absolutely glorious, even edging toward being too warm for my liking. Olof and I took the two littlest girls to town and bought some window screens to replace the ones that the cats had torn beyond repair, and once we got some air moving through the house it was perfect. It’s supposed to be hotter still in Uppsala this week, so I’m going to have to brace myself before stepping off the plane tomorrow morning.

*How on earth do the words “old” and “’90s” even go together??
