I am not going to rant that it has been a while since I last posted here, (oh, but I am doing that now…).
I seem to forget that I have a blog. I have some crafty projects that are done, but havent been able to take the pictures just yet, will nag Johnny to do so when he comes home. As for my life, I (and Johnny) have moved to a new apartment just before easter, 2nd of April. When we said yes to it, and got here to view again and got the keys and such, I regretted getting this apartment… It was ugly, cold and needed fixing… On the plus side, the apartment has a wood stove, a storage room in the hallway (behind a little door). And a big basement for storage, it also has a medium sized freezer down there.
But now… It is cute and cool. We painted almost every surface of the apartment. The first hallway was in this strange wood panel, now white. The second hallway was dark blue, now white after three (!) coats of paint. The living room was a mix of whitish and pastel purple… It is also white :) The kitchen was peachy colored or more like prison color… But that too is white. The bedroom was unpainted, dark wood panel. And after three coats of paint that too is white. I love white walls :) The bathroom is pastel blue and will stay that way, the toilet was white so there was no need for painting in there. Yes, we have a strange toilet, it is just a toilet in there, no sink, no washing whatsoever.
Also, we have removed three (!) doors in the apartment that just were not necessary. We bought a new fridge (with a small freezer). Got some new lamps and tables. I finally got a tall bar table, in my kitchen :)
The apartments standards has risen quite a lot since Johnny and I moved in here. Unfortunately… We are going to move in the fall. Turns out, where Johnny work, has had some changes, and it is no longer necessary for a registry for domains in Norway any longer (the company is really swedish). But, Johnny got a good job offer in Stockholm, Sweden. He will become a team leader for two teams :)
So, we put a lot of work into an apartment that we will only be staying in for four months :( Oh well, I really look forward moving to Stockholm. I will take a break in my studies, read upon a couple of subjects that I failed. Johnny´s job has offered to help us find an apartment in Stockholm and find a job to me :)
In the previous weekend, my sisters and dog came over for sleepover. It was nice, we made yummy dinners and had a good time. On saturday we went on a small shopping, more like they bought stuff I am quite poor right now. Then my oldest baby sister went on the train back home to her so her boyfriend who had been gone for ten days. My youngest sister Sunniva and I went back to the apartment and got out the dog, Kira, and went for a long walk down to the fjord. Kira took a bath while Sunniva and I had some ice cream :)
After that we went home and painted some. I made a cute, pink, heart painting. It turned out nice :) Sunniva painted some buttons and needle felted a penguin, with some of my help. Later we made dinner with Johnny and watched X-men :) On sunday, Johnny and I went for a walk with Kira while Sunniva showered and when we got back we showered while Sunniva made breakfast for all of us. After that Sunniva and I started making candles. Striped candles. They turned out awesome ! Pictures will come later.
Then my mom came here, and stayed for dinner and took Sunniva and Kira with her home.
This week has not been that eventful. Except for yesterday, then we had dinner guests. We made indian and it was good.
Today I will try to get more school stuff done…
Tomorrow we leave for Skien/Porsgrunn for Johnny´s baby sisters confirmation (? When you are 14-15 in Norway there is this ritual to show that you are now an “adult”…).
