Waking Life: September 2009
http://jwolt.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 13, 2009. A while ago I mentioned that I was making a baby carrier. Well, I realized I never posted any photos, and now I've made two! After making the first one I had to make a few pattern adjustments, and I think the second one came out much nicer (although you probably won't be able to tell anything from the pictures). You can use these from birth up to about 35lbs (if you can carry 35lbs! This is one that someone asked me to make for them. With the hood down. Toby going for a ride!

Friday, January 29, 2010. This was her absolute highlight of Christmas! 5 Kevin begged and begged so much for a cover for his air compressor (in the garage) long after I decided to make him one, that I appliqued a pink heart on it as a joke! I'll try and put some updated photos on soon. This month has been a good break after the rush of the holidays. Be warm, wherever you are! Friday, January 01, 2010. Here are some pictures from 2009.

Avoided malaria despite getting so many mosquito bites that Í for a moment considered a blood transfusion (I optimistically believed in the urban legend saying that after 200 mosquito bites you would be immune to the itching poison.trust me, it's wrong). Travelled into Lagos (Nigeria) with an armed guard. Beninese and Nigerien cul...

As expected the guys in the market could not find any Depeche Mode, and since they asked if it was American (please!

Like a Polar Bear in Africa: Lagos
http://onhumanconditions.blogspot.com/2007/08/lagos.html
Like a Polar Bear in Africa. Notes from a Scandinavian in West Africa. Saturday, 11 August 2007.

Don't get me wrong, life is sweet here in good ol' Benin, but having a few days with the world's best steak and wine, real freeways with properly marked lanes (! Welcome to the jungle. You'll take it eventually.
