As the days go by - Christmas is coming up..
This is the day before the day, what we call the “Little Christmas eve”. Here in Norway, Christmas Eve is the big night. This is the night where we dress up, put all the nice stuff on the dinner table; all your silver (fresh polished of course), the best china and the most fancy wine glasses.
This is the night when we exchange presents, but not until after dinner. I remember from my childhood...
Water leak, cont...
So, now we know that the damage is quite extencive. All the floors needs to be rehabilitated, and all the parquet must be exchangd. In addition also the moulding has to be exchanged and painted. So we have two-three months of construction work in front of us.
Thank god we have a good insurance cover! They have been really helpful.
I do beleive that after the work is done, the appartement will...
A real nice christmas present!
Okey, so we had a major leak in the house. Water pouring down from the flat above, penetrating walls, floor and ceiling. The moulding is cracking and the wall casts are dissolving. Shit! Just before chrismas!
The damage does not seem to be the end of the world, but it is so wide spread all over the place, so a lot of work has to be done to get everything repaired.

Så ble det Verdens Beste i dag også!
Tradisjonen tro, når det skal feires i familien, så må jeg til pers og bake Verdens Beste. Oppskriften har jeg fått av tanta til Leif Arne, Anne Turid på Vannåya. Det er verdens beste oppskrift,og for å få et riktig resultat, må alle detaljene følges nøye.
Nå gjenstår det å dekke bordet, sette på middagen, pakke litt gaver og så er vi klar for guttas 30-årsdag! Gratulerer med dagen Odin og Tor!!
My friend Rosemarie Poggi!
I am wondering how my friend Rosemarie Poggi in West Palm Beach in Florida is doing, haven´t heard from her in a while. Since her son is moving from home, I really hope she is all right.
Lørdag 5. desember
I dag har jeg ikke tenkt å sitte i kjelleren og jobbe med slektsgranskning. I morgen skal jeg ha middagsbesøk og feire sønnene mine sin 30-årsdag, derfor er det litt å ordne i dag. Tenk at de er blitt 30 år! Synes nesten det var i går at de kom til verden, to små nurk, 2 mnd før tiden, med masse ståhei og glede!
Så i morgen blir det pinnekjøtt og verdens beste!
Do you have a nice day today?
