I guess I should make some resolutions for the new year. The first would have to be that I resolve not to make any stupid or impossible resolutions. That said, my list is incredibly shortened. I guess I'll go with stop biting my nails. Sounds good enough.

I'm nearing the end of my first Christmas eve in Denmark. It's been fun. I'm with Kathy and Henrik in Oksbøl. All day I've been getting reports of snow in Hillerød and Randers, but so far we've only had rain. I'm not letting that get me down, though. I still have hope ( Read more... )

Hi all. Hope the holidays are going smoothly for all of you. I'm headed to Kathy and Henrik's place in about a week to spend it with them and then I'm starting with a new family in Farum, about 30 minutes from Hillerød ( Read more... )

Ok, so it's been a long time since I've written anything in here. I've been so very busy! I haven't had computer access at home, so I have to go to the local library to log on. But the parents haven't been getting home until about 5 or 10 minutes before the library closes. That's annoying. So here goes ( Read more... )

Kathy and the Ogre were wondering what happened to me, so I thought I'd let you all know what's up. I just cleaned my room and refound my phone. Yeah! So now that it's unlost you can call me ( Read more... )

So I live in Hillerød now. At the polar opposite of host families! The Skat-Tiedjes have decided that they need an au pair who has a life and who goes out to enjoy her free time. Because I don't know anyone here yet, they've begun introducing me to the children of their neighbors and friends. All of them are my age, even! Whee!!! I love it ( Read more... )

I left the house at 13:00 today and now I'm at the library waiting for Kelly and Lonni. I'd call her to see how much longer I need to wait, but I left her phone number in my bag which is packed up at the train station. Apparently the station thinks that I WANT to travel with all of the bags that I have, so they weren't going to tell me that I'm ( Read more... )

I told Noah today. I took him to the Børnehave this morning and before we left I stepped into my room for my jacket (it's cold and rainy today!) HE peeked in and saw all of my suitcases pretty much packed, but I don't have them zipped yet. He asked me what I was doing, where I was going. So I told him the truth. He was a little sad, but I ( Read more... )

Everyone's out of the house again. Peer's at work, Suhair and Lina are shopping, and the kids are at daycare. A week from now I will be in a new house with a new family. Suhair still hasn't told the boys yet. Dumbass.

The Gelsers are coming home today instead of yesterday. For various reasons, they missed their flight yesterday, so I had to cancel the plans that I had for today. I'm hoping that it works out to reschedule them for tomorrow. Otherwise I won't be happy ( Read more... )
