Today we had a parent-kid-teacher conference at Anna’s school, and the teacher heaped praise on her which was fun for all involved! Overall things are going well for her at school, so good for her!Read more
This will have to be brief since I’m (supposedly) writing a lecture for tomorrow morning (exactly 12 hours from now). Today’s health update is as follows: Bjarki went to daycare, and did fine. The rest of us saw doctors today. Finnur got an appointment with some random general practitioner at Domus Medica, who listened toRead more
Lately, Finnur and I have been looking at houses/townhouses/row-houses to buy. To do so, we’ve been watching fasteignir.is, which is the main real-estate website, and lamenting how very primitive it is. For example: They do not offer a map-view of all the properties for sale (check out redfin.com and zillow.com for a good example, weRead more
Bjarki woke up in a right foul mood this morning, but at least it was a very energetic foul mood, which was a relief after all his lethargy yesterday. He also did not have a fever at all. Yay for antibiotics! 🙂 As the day wore on, he steadily became more and more energetic, soRead more
So Monday started up bright and early, well, at 7am. I held down the fort for a couple of hours (both kids measured at 37.4°C, yay! heading in the right direction) before a-still-very-sick-and-lethargic Finnur kindly crawled out into the living room to supervise dvd-viewing while I napped. Fast-forward to lunchtime. I managed to persuade theRead more
First off: Massive congratulations to Guðrún and Snorri on the birth of their third child this past night! All went well, and they were home by lunchtime! Now, back to our saga of ill health. Around 2am Bjarki had been coughing a dry cough for close to an hour, and I found myself in ourRead more
Ah, the joys of having a kid in daycare. This past Wednesday I went to pick up Bjarki from daycare and his teacher uttered the dreaded “I think he’s falling ill, he’s had a rough day and isn’t himself”. Sure enough, his voice sounded raspy, although he was full of energy. Later that night heRead more
I’m very sorry dear camera, you must feel ever so neglected! Yes, yes, I haven’t picked you up and turned you on for three weeks now. But I promise to give you a little more attention now that the memory of the December photo-glut is fading. When exactly did I realize that I was neglectingRead more
Are you male? Do you want to read musings about women’s periods? No? I didn’t think so. So, just look away. Go find some pictures on The Google to oogle at instead (it’s a pun!) 🙂 If you choose to go on then don’t say I didn’t warn you. So yes, this is a littleRead more
I have come to the conclusion that not teaching on Mondays is very good for my mental health. It makes the weekend so much more enjoyable since I don’t have to worry about Monday’s lecture – and then spend between 9pm on Sunday and 3am Monday actually writing said lecture. (Which is one reason whyRead more
