I bought a yoga mat. I’m getting back into shape after too many years of just getting ‘close enough’ so I’m gonna need an exercise/yoga mat for home workouts.

I bought a little projector that projects anything that's on on a flash stick, FireTV stick, computer or phone onto any surface. It even plays sound. So I can see my movies on a big screen, so to speak, even at home. I just have to take down a lot of wall art and make some clean white space to project it on. I ordered it but it hasn’t arrived yet.

A 1999 vintage Saab 9-5 Griffin. Going on a long trip to get it back home on Thursday. These models are getting quite rare even here in it's homeland. And the Griffin was mostly for the US market, so not many are around here in Sweden. Many are probably scraped too. This one has just one owner, he is 78-years old. And he don't want to drive anymore. Vise decision I think?

The Saab brand was a great car maker in it's former days. Then GM bought half of the company and still some amazing overengineered products with great quality was hitting the market. Later on GM acquired the whole brand, and slowly they ruined everything with cheaper simpler cars. The bankruptcy was soon a fact. Today Saab cars are just a fond memory of the past.

Yes I'm a bit crazy about cars. But why not? It's great fun both to drive, and to fix up old ones.

This thing, for attaching a 'phone to my car's dash. It clamps to a vent, which is clever. My windshield suction cup version is starting to not want to stay stuck on. Mind you it's managed OK for a couple of years.

Quad Lock, natch. (BTW this is a spare vent that has been removed, used as a test.)

I bought a 2-pack of 11”x14” canvas. I’ve got to paint something and my old canvases have been sitting around so long they’re starting to turn color (without adding paint). Unfortuately, the new canvasses I bought are the cheap Walmart variety and they were such bad quality I had to go to Hobby Lobby and buy replacements immediately.

Three books:

Peter Kropotkin Ethics: Origin and Development

Peter Kropotkin Memoirs of a Revolutionist

Vladimir Lenin Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism.

I wanted to buy Peter Kropotkin's books "The Conquest of Bread" and "Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution" but I did not find these books.

A carton of Nairns oats flatbreads / crackers, 6 x boxes, each box contains twelve crackers (in 2 packets). I thought I'd run out, so bought these, then found another full unpoened carton of 6 boxes in the spare room. Plus another two boxes. So I hadn't run out after all. :sealed:

I got the new Under Night 2 for myself and a friend recently. I'm not good at fighting games but I'd like to be, and it seemed like a good one to practice with. Also bought a friend a burger to cheer them up.

I bought the laptop I'm typing this response with. It's a used Dell Latitude, a step up from my old Dell, but I haven't had any of my programs or personal stuff put into it yet. I'll have someone knowledgeable do that when I can. Right now I'm still getting used to its various piccadillos.
