Have you experienced something you couldn't explain? Do you believe in ghosts? I don't, not really, but still...

The floor is creaking slightly. I look around to see if someone is behind me, but I can't see anyone. Even though I'm used to it by now, I stand up and look around in the empty library. Yes it's empty despite the fact that I can hear the faint sound of footsteps. Or am I only imagining things?

Could someone be hiding behind one of the bookshelves? I shrug and decide to go back to what I was doing. It's one of the calmer days.

Knowing that there are no such things as ghosts, I still check the position of the rocking chair when I come to work and when I'm leaving. Today is no different, it’s moved again, not much, only enough for me to notice. Who's been using it? No one knows.

The presence, if there is one, isn’t threatening or scary. We're sharing the library and if he, I get the feeling it's a he, isn't complaining, why should I?

Yesterday I got a new Macbook. My first one actually even though I'm a true Mac girl. I celebrated the new computer with making a few new wallpapers. Enjoy:

The “wisdom puzzle“ or Tangram is a puzzle that originally came from China. I’ve been fascinated by this seemingly simple game that can be used for so much. Even the great Edgar Allan Poe was intrigued by it. The puzzle consists of seven pieces of specifically cut out parts of a square that can be formed into practically any figure.

Sometimes Tangram is described as a puzzle for children and I am sure that a lot of adults find this puzzle as intriguing as I do

• you can find the mathematical aspects of the game appealing


• or the artistic


• or the game part of it


• or you can use tangram for your creative needs

I felt so proud when I created my first own model. To be honest, I’ve only created that one, but I’m sure I’ll make more now when I’ve started. This is my butterfly, or maybe I should call it Imago. :)
