You know the feeling when something unexpected happens.. for the better?
Today, when I logged into my internet banking service (or whatever its called 
), for the purpose of paying some bills, I somehow had 10 grand more than I’d know about.. pretty weird, didnt have a clue how I would have gotten that. Then I realized that I had payed way too much taxes for 2006 which is why I have got these money back…
Nice little surprice here in the spring, I could use more of these 
I am currently reading a book titled ‘langt ude? essays om fremtiden’ (red. far out ? essays about the future). So far I have only read the first part, where the writer tells about how people has spend their time in different parts of the history for the last 50 years.
Very interestingly its stated that people has less time for recreation and other stuff.. they stress around from one activity to another one, and he explains some reasons why it could be this way. In 2001 both men and women used about 2 times the amount they used in 1987, for toilette. The reason for this seems to be that it is the only place where people can relax properly from the stress in their everyday life. About 50 minuts are used for toilette a day. Even though people have more free time and they sleep less, it seems there is not enough time. Women generally use much more time for household chores where men work longer and use more time for transport.
The free time for recreation and relax from everything is gone. And not only this, spare time and work are now also more mixed than ever, which means people think a lot about issues from their work when they should not.
