It has been rather busy at work. Quite mad, actually. The rules are now even stricter, so we are very few people working in the stacks. Either because the staff is working from home instead or have health issues. Today one colleague transported ten boxes with journals to another colleague who is sitting at home, so that she can perform some work. She lives about 80 km from the library.
Realizing I have too many hours overtime (no, it's not surprising), I will try to take every Monday off in November. Today is the first day off, and of course I am at work to use the computer. Also managed to get down to the center of Lund and got a hair cut.
I spent the entire Halloween-weekend proof-reading a manuscript. Two of my friends are writing a book about Norra Strö church. They have finally come so far that they asked for an opinion. Getting through the 200 pages was quite a task. I had a lot of comments. The publication date is only a few weeks away.
My Australian relatives recently found three Bibles originating in Sweden. One was owned by Nils Nilsson, who emigrated there in 1909 with wife and kids. The other two belonged to his wife's family. The strange thing is that only one of them lived in Australia. The third Bible had five names written on the inside cover. The parents and one child died in Sweden, the two remaining daughters emigrated to the USA (and both died there). So why that third Bible was in Australia I cannot say.
