11th until 18th of Sep 2025 Tue 16 Sep 2025, 8:25:38 pm CET This will be a really short post, just to stay away for any flatline feeling. So, what happened this week? That is just the thing, if there are less updates here means that a lot happened and I just didn't have the time to write it all down. But I will try to sum it up a bit. Anyone having a child will know what I mean when I say that there is a child in need of attention, care and love. Especially if it is a boy and it is happening at the same time as there are a lot of plans made prior by, oh let's say, the respectfully other. Thu Sep 18 2025, 7:28:33 pm CET So, here we go again. The initial plan was to post this on the 16th of September (and not even a short update worked out), but it is now the 18th and nothing happened. But hey, better late than never, right? In my defence, well, you know how it is by now, life happened. But still, how can it be that I have not written a single word since the 11th of September? Not entirely true, I did some updates here and there (bookmarks and the CSS [fonts etc] of this website) around this wonderful website. I am also busy writing an article for a friend about which 3D printer to choose. The aftermath of J's wisdom teeth removal is still ongoing and giving some trouble. But we are getting there, slowly but surely. It seems there is a sinus infection as well, so that is not helping. But hey, that is apparently not that uncommon as the roots of the upper wisdom teeth are very close to the sinuses. So, we are now on antibiotics and some other medication to help with the pain and swelling. Fingers crossed that this will help and that we can get back to normal (teenage)life soon. I have progressed further on the tobacco leaves drying and curing process. I am in between harvesting and fermenting, leaves are picked and hung to dry in the dedicated place in the garage. The weather has been a bit tricky, with some rain and wind, but also some sunny days. So, I have to keep an eye on the leaves and when to best pick them. That means I have to keep a close eye on the forecast, apparently it will reach up to 28 degrees Celsius this week, spanning between 10 and 28 thus and wind gusts up to storm force. OK, I leave it at that for the moment and just post it. I will try to go to bed now, it is already late and I have to get up early tomorrow. So, good night and take care all! Did you know that..? I try to find an interesting historical event that occurred on this day. Tue 16 Sep 2025, 8:25:38 pm CET Did you know that today (16th thus) in 1380 is when Charles V of France Charles V (21 January 1338 – 16 September 1380), called the Wise, was King of France from 1364 to his death. His reign marked a high point for medieval France, with his skillful political and economic policies helping to restore the country's prosperity after the disasters of the Hundred Years' War. He was the first French sovereign to rule as 'Dauphin' and established the tradition of the Dauphin as heir apparent to the French crown., known as 'the Wise', dies at age 42. Navigate back!
