So busy, in fact, that I've already been staying in Eastern Norway for a week, at my mum's, and haven't had the chance to mention it here yet. I've been so busy, I'm behind on both Game of Thrones and Lupin III (and that's saying something)!

In summary:
- Traveled from Bergen (where all my stuff remains decidedly not packed- Spent hours cuddling ( Read more... )

So I've gathered my things, put some podcasts on the mp3 player, charged the phone and the DS (I'm on the final case of the first Ace Attorney game, maybe this is the day), emptied the dishwasher, cuddled A LOT with Linni, pretty much packed all my things, and there are still a couple of hours left before I need to start making myself a mastodontic ( Read more... )

As if I'm not emotionally vulnerable enough these days (SUCH a crybucket), I've developed not only one, but two cold sores on my upper lip. A personal record. And in spite of what the ads tell you, those clear cold sore plasters, while pretty effective, don't stay on when you eat or drink. Which means I'm trying out this new style of drinking which ( Read more... )

Looks like I'm making a very unplanned trip to Eastern Norway and my family this week. I know it's not been long since I spent an overlong holiday there but I need to do something to get out of this rut I'm in. Also it'll be great eating something besides chicken-flavoured noodles (boy did the novelty of that wear out fast ( Read more... )

I'm heading back to Bergen today, after nearly a month of my usual Grand Tour of Mooching. I didn't plan to stay so long on this side of the mountains, but a combination of new-baby rush and a curious lack of available train tickets for people traveling with animals, I just sort of... stayed a while. But I'll be home again by midnight ( Read more... )

In three hours' time I'll be on the Bergen-Oslo train once again, Linni in tow. The little person in my sister Tiny's tummy's due to make her grand appearance any day now, so that's the occasion we're all looking forward to ( Read more... )

Back in Bergen again - where I discovered a commode in the shower and the wires and bits of the water heater coiled up on the the bathroom floor. Not entirely certain what's going on there ( Read more... )

Seven hour train ride over the mountains, me and Linni literally surrounded by eight dogs in our part of the cart... And everything went fine. Smoothest journey yet. None of the dogs ever seemed to catch whiff of the cat in carrier, and I'm starting to think Linni haven't the slightest idea what dogs are. Not even when one of them started barking ( Read more... )

I'm spending a week in Eastern Norway ( Read more... )

We made it across the mountains in one piece. I am beyond exhausted. When I saw what state my neighbour had left our shared bathroom in I felt like crying, but I've made my peace with the fact that I'll just have to scrub it down at some point. (Not today ( Read more... )
