Biked home in a proper storm! Yes, the one with rain AND wind, not the California ‘pretend’-storm (aka, some rain with mild wind, if any). Right now it’s a sustained wind of 16 m/s (36 miles/hr), with gusts of 26 m/s (58 miles/hr). It may have been slightly less a couple of hour or soRead more
We signed Anna up for swim practice this fall. She hasn’t been all too thrilled about it, but she’s nonetheless managed to get herself to the pool three times a week, after school, most weeks so far. So far most practices have been ok-to-fun, so that’s been encouraging. And just to recap: Before this sheRead more
These past few weeks have been a wee bit crazy. I find myself working in the evenings more often than not, and I’m not all that thrilled about it. I’ve been trying to figure out why my time-management isn’t any better, and I think it’s coming down to the new course. You see, I’ve hardlyRead more
… a husband on a soccer-trip to the UK. 🙂 I hope he has a great trip! 🙂Read more
1. Norway is really expensive! More expensive than Iceland. It’s a bit shocking. 2. It’s weird that I understand what all the signs say, and I can sorta read papers and magazines. But I can’t speak the language.Read more
I (Hrefna) am in Norway! As of today! Until Thursday morning! Why? Because I decided to be adventurous and gullible at the same time. The backstory is that last May, the managing director of RHnet (they have an astoundingly bare-bones website) contacted me seeking my assistance with a couple of conferences on networks (the data kind, notRead more
Today is the day Bjarki and Reynir should have been born. They weren’t so lucky, yadda-yadda-yadda, and that was that. If they had been born today though, they would have been four years old, and not four years and three months old. Which won’t matter much down the line, but during this age it stillRead more
After a remarkably dry fall, rain is now upon us. Today was the first day I biked home in solid rain the whole way home (35ish mins). I therefore found it fitting to post some wetness-related pics.Read more
The university has been in session now for a month (give or take a few days). In that time, things have slowly gotten up to speed, and I think it’s safe to say that things are in full swing by now. There is never a dull moment, that’s for sure! I think the best adjectiveRead more
When we bought our house, we assumed that we’d be keeping the green/blue/gray-ish tinted accent-wall in the living room. It looked like a nice color, that would go well with everything. Then we moved in and it turned out that our sofas and that wall had precious little in common, which was unfortunate, since one ofRead more
