The weather today was much more ‘Icelandic’ than what’s been going on lately: lots of rain (finally! the grass is yellow in many places now) and some wind, although it was rather warm. Anna and I used the early afternoon to visit my youngest brother, Anthony, who’s staying with our cousin (sister of our paternalRead more
A second less shaky image from tonight's sewing club.Read more
Tonight I attended a great 'sewing club' at Gudrun's place. It was a gathering of past and present (and future) CA dwellers, and we talked our heads off. Fantastic!Read more
It's windy today but so far no rain (or very little at least) so we're on the neighborhood playground. The kids are mostly healthy (Bjarki still in whining mode though), my sore throat now sounds 'dead sexy' but Finnur is ok so far healthwise.Read more
This is turning into a (lack of) health blog! The current status is that Bjarki’s kept everything down for two days in a row now, but is very cranky and pretty tired. This could be a side-effect of not eating much over the weekend, or … ta-ta-rah-rah… the sneaky sore throat that is currently botheringRead more

Bjarki didn’t eat very much yesterday, and today we found out why: he came down with a stomach bug. Yup, the little guy couldn’t keep anything down except Coke Cola until around 7pm today (not even the four pieces of Cheerios we gave him around 5pm), so Finnur and I just stayed at home-base, takingRead more
Anna’s grandparents asked yesterday if they could take her to the summer house we were at last weekend to stay over the coming long weekend. We decided to leave it up to Anna herself, and before they all took off this afternoon, she’d changed her mind four times (or “changed her idea” as she putRead more
We had a mostly quiet day today and hung out at home for most of the day. Then around 5pm we headed to Gudrun and Snorri’s place to have dinner and reminiscence about all the good times we had in California. Since the weather is still ridiculously good, the kids splashed around in a kiddieRead more
