things I like lately

After nearly a week of beautiful winter weather, the sky is grey again. It makes me look forward to bright spring days. Photo from my spring archives.

- I saw a movie and I liked it
- Maple Walnut ice cream from Mövenpick
- beautiful mornings with - 7 °C and a full moon
- blue skies and gorgeous winter sun
- this interview with Courtney Adamo - I love her Instagram too
- two weeks ahead with no normal school; first a week of camp (leirskole) with my 8th grade students and then a week of winter break
- house progress; the kitchen is being installed this week + I think maaaybe we can slowly start moving in next weekend (I can't wait!!)
- lovely Indian food made by 9th grade during their weekly cooking class
- meeting my sister and her two months son earlier this week
- seeing Sara with her cousin
- Martha's scarfs

Things I don't like lately

- being away from Sara and Sølve for a whole week

life, week 5

Very much needed walk after a hard evening of parenting. 

The last day of the long hair. (Here is after)

Grading student papers on my last day of supervised field experiences.

Even on the weekends I prefer my standard rolled oats breakfast.

Lucky us who have friends that are such excellent home chefs!

The big IKEA kitchen, bathroom, wardrobe Saturday required two hot dog breaks.

She was quite fascinated by the ice and ordered me to take a photo of it.

Big smiles with aunt Mari

Four generations

She eagerly picked flowers for the bunad day (I have no idea what day she is referring to) when we (me and her) are getting married. Got to love the imagination of a three year old.

I grew up here.

Week 5: January 26 - February 1

our house renovation, week 22

This week was all about floors.



We decided to keep the old wood stove for a while. Maybe we will get a new, more modern one later. Sølve wants something like this. I'm not sure what I want.

One kitchen, two bathrooms, three wardrobes - hours of shopping and picking
