Sometimes when school takes over and you are just studying all the time I noticed that it wasn't so easy after all to keep the house clean...I probably should be cleaning now rather than writing this, but you know...everything else than cleaning seems better..I think my lack of interest for the flat is because we have told the landlord we will be moving out soon... The MOLD took over...so in about two months we'll be out of this place. Bitter sweet experience..
I just finished writing an essay for exams, so I am thinking I want to suprise my husband by having the flat spotless before he gets home from school.. It is just so worth it when I see him smile. We have come a long way already conserning adapting to each others needs and the whole marrige life. I still feel it is the best choice I ever made. Learning to trust another person with your whole life is not easy but amazing when you finally let go of your fears.. Well thats how I feel.
The other day we had such a storm, that all electricity and in some places the water supply was shut down for 24hours+ in Telemark fylke...that is a huge area for those who don't know.. It was nice having candle lights and everything since it is pitch black outside from about 15:30 in the afternoon now in Norway, but what came to my mind is the importance of having a food storage.. you just never know what will happen. Had the shut down lasted longer all our food in the freezer would have gotten destroyed and everything..always good to be prepared.
well.. im gonna get to work now..have a nice day.. and remember to smile

My Husband
For some time now my husband and I have struggled with humidity in our flat, it's a real pain, especially now since mold has started to grow on the bedroomwall. As a result of this we moved out of the bedrom to our livingroom using our sofa as a bed while dealing with the mold. It's quite cozy im my opinion but my sweet husband is dying because of the small bed space.. LOL.. .
Today he got a cold and is basically passing out on the sofa while calling me sweet names and continually saying how much he appreciate me..I think it's because I made him chicken noodle-soup. Men...they really become cute babies when they are sick.
Being married is great, It's wonderful to create a family

Hvite Dream
Lately its been really cold in Norway, had it rained, there would have been lots of snow, but instead the moist in the air has created a beautiful crystal shining winterland. On my way to school, biking as usual I was overwhelmed by the view. Everything was white. The grass, the trees, the bushes and you name it. Imagine mountains and hills covered in white, not snow but frost! When the sun finally showed up everything startet to twinkle. For a moment I thought it was in a dream.
People are stocking firewood before the winter really kicks inn and yesterday I had a lovely experience with on fellow person who was doing exactly this. I only saw a pair of boots, black ones , the man himself was hidden behind the veranda. He was throwing firewood from the garden up on the veranda to stock it there. As I went by I got this strong impression that I should offer the person help. A bit embarrased I shouted "do you need help" across the garden but the person didn't hear me. After my second attemnt to contact with this man I decided to go around the corner to his front yard and through his lawn till I got to the back garden of the house. (just to make it clear, Norwegian don't like people bothering them, neither do the like to accept help from others) Therfore you can imagine how akward this whole situation was for me.
I was persisten on acting according to the feeling I got, to help this person, believing that the inspiration came from God. When I finally stood face to face with the man, I discovered he was about 80 years old and that he was helping his younger brother who was about 75 years old to stock the firewood. His younger brother was quite handicapped and he couldn't do it at all. For 3 hours I had the blessing of helping this old man named Anung stocking the wood. It made him happy, but I believed it made me even happier.
I think God is aware of everyone and I absolutely know that he loves that old man and wanted to help him through using me as a tool. I'm just grateful I was able to act on that feeling from God.

Dinner
Last night we had the missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints over for dinner.
My husband and I really enjoyed their spiritual message for us. The message was about building our foundation on the "rock" who is Jesus Christ and if we do, we will not fall no matter how many afflictions we meet. I thought that was really nice. Life can be a bit much sometimes but I'm greatful for it since it's through trouble that I learn much and see even more clearly who I am.
