Total relaxation

I woke up relatively early this morning, and continued reading “Women dialated 1 cm get no symphathy” or “Konur með einn í útvíkkun fá enga samúð”, which is a collection of 70 Icelandic birth stories (one of which we ourselves witnessed!). I started reading the book yesterday at a bookstore at the mall, while waiting for my oldest brother to show up with the list of books he needed, but he took forever so I just sat there and read. Later on (the book buying turned out to be not-so-painful since not that many people were there) I borrowed the book from Finnur’s sister, Inga, and finished it around noon today.

After getting out of bed and eating lunch, I felt tired again and took a “small” nap that lasted until 4pm! My excuse was that I was “sleeping off the cold” and I think it actually may have worked, since my head has cleared up considerably and my nose is functioning again! 🙂

While I was play-acting “Sleeping-beauty”, Finnur worked away all day, fixing up all three of his parents computers (one desktop, and two laptops) and has now proclaimed them ok until his next visit… or so we hope! 🙂
