COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

Lol. What is it about our dogs that they always manage to get fed first. We had lasagne ( bought from a shop) and my vegetarian son had macaroni and cheese.

Priorities. They’ve trained us well.

 

[Kristoff]

Do you know that your post about cornflakes a couple weeks back had me getting a box. Lol now during the week I will sometimes have a bowl of cornflakes in the evening.

 

[Kristoff]

It's been a great visit

She’s lovely, Ed!

 

[Kristoff]

Sure.
Or I could also buy a new trailer.
I really like the new KAWASAKI H2R.
But it costs a lot and is not street legal.
It's also small.
My current ZX14R fits me just fine.
And the "golden spark candy lime green" is no longer available.

Oh, Ed and his love for everything lime green!

 

[Kristoff]

She is in very good hands.
Eventually I hope she can better cope with reality.
She told me that she wonders how my sister is. She hadn't heard from her since she ran away from home.
My sister died a few years ago.
This kind of behavior and thinking are all too common now. And she thinks she is healthy enough to take care of herself. But she can do almost nothing without help...

Oh, that’s so hard, Ed. And there’s nothing you can do except provide her with the best care you can...
Sorry to hear about your sister. Do you have any other siblings?

It goes down to about 40% then crashes to zero and shuts off. Dead.

Is it the iPhone? There was a glitch in one of the iOS updates. Husband had it. Let me ask him how he dealt with it.

 

[Kristoff]

I'm going to get some sleep and hit the road at about 4 am.

Have a safe trip back!

 

[Kristoff]

Good Morning all. It is realy early for me today. I wanted to get started on the laundry early ( as it is my turn today).
On a side note does anyone have a really good remedy for a bad sty? Hubby has one and it has made his whole eye puff up. He looks like he is walking around with a ball on his eye. We are currently using a sty cream but it seems to be getting worse.

Sorry, I don’t.

Yes they have. Lol

 

[Kristoff]

Good morning all.

Have a safe journey Ed.

Dan I hope the pain goes quickly. You’re probably not walking straight now and using different/the wrong muscles to do so. When you get home, some physio to help rebuild the muscle strength will help.

I understand there were huge storms for 4 hours back in the UK last night. I await news from our children.

Here in Oslo it is heading for 30C rapidly again. We are heading out on a boat trip this morning

Who needs to go to Greece or Turkey when you can visit...Oslo??! Hope you have your hats and plenty of sun cream, Linda! Enjoy.

Good morning, roommates!
One more event with the Russian moms for me today. They asked me to help with the organization. I must be allergic to these ladies in general, because my stress levels shoot up just thinking about it

Oh dear. But if they are asking you to help it must mean that you are good at what you do. Good luck with those stress levels and the event. Remember to have fun as well.

I noticed that too. But I found an off brand that is still good (to me). I think it's malt-o-meal brand that's sold in a bag.

Hm-m. I'll look for it.

Warm/hot compress??

 

[Yvonne G]

I've got the blahs today. I think I'll be taking the day off. I've got a load of clothes in the washing machine, and I still have to get tortoise food prepared, but after I feed, clean up and water them I think I'll vegetate in my recliner. Of course that may all change once I get outside and start moving around. Supposed to be a pretty nice day, and it looks like the sun is shining. We'll see. . .

Quiet in here today!

We went on a boat trip round Oslo Fjord today, basically the natural harbour around the city which contains many islands.

With the sun out and a day off, it seemed like the whole of Oslo had headed for the coastline and was sunbathing and swimming. I can’t honestly think the sea temperature was very warm, but nobody seemed to mind.

Every fountain, pond and lake seemed to have kids in it today. In Health & Safety conscious Britain, we’d have signs up telling people to stay out, but not here

Some views from the boat trip

The opera house is supposedly based on a glacier



The church-like building is actually a lighthouse and still used


Every home has a bathing hut




And this afternoon we went to the National Museum and Art Gallery.

Probably most famous Norwegian artist is Edvard Munch ... and The Scream


There were other works by him that I much preferred; some it is very disturbing though.

Happy Sunday all. Hot hot muggy VERY muggy humid here in Maryland today, maybe rest of the week. High 80’s, close to 100 percent humidity, thunder showers, interrmittent scorching sunshine. Morning gardening done, much more yesterday when it was a tad cooler. Our Sully loves to exit his warm hut during the thundershowers.. and chow down the hot, warm wer grass n weeds.

Joe always liked thunderstorms too

It’s very hot here in Norway, but humidity is 23% which is much more bearable.

Back home it sounds like the thunderstorms are continuing.

Just regular spring weather here. Nice, but not too hot.
