I passed!

I'm supposed to be working but I just had to write this little entry. I've got results from both courses that I took (one isn't official yet, I've only got the estimated marks) but it looks like I passed both of them. That's fantastic, I didn't think that I'd pass the financial course at all so I am very pleased.

And now back to work.

Feeding time at the zoo!

Sunday lunch just finished, see pictures!

Solla stirða

We have our own little Solla stirða (Stephanie from Lazy Town).

Nice visit

My cousin Örn and his family, came over for coffee yesterday. They are here skiing and I called them and asked them over. Örn and I are planning a family reunion at the end of June so this was a nice opportunity to talk about that a little bit and it was also very nice to see them.

Terrible tests

My tests were on April 9th and 11th. I stand a chance of passing the first one (and I hope I will - results will be in tomorrow), but the other one I don't think I stand a chance at all. We'll see.

No words needed

Kid on the floor

That's how we found Kristín Lára the other night when we went to bed.

"No, he's an old man"

Bob was teasing the girls just now. "Who wants a slapped ass?" he said, and Sólveig Lilja said no to all his suggestions (she, her sister, both her parents and the cat). Then he asked "does afi want a slapped ass?" ("afi" = grandfather), and the answer was "no, he's an old man". Man, did that make us laugh!

We went to the farm yesterday morning to "help" feed the sheep. We were back around noon, we've done this a few times now, go there early in the morning and come back around lunch, and it is quite nice.

I had my exams last week, the first one, human recourses, was OK, the other one, finances, was horrible. I guess I'm going to have to resit that one - although I do not want to do that. But that's probably better than sit another course.

I've been calling my cousins, Kári's (my mother's elder half-brother) sons about the family reunion in June. It's been fantastic to talk to them, I've never talked to any of them before, and the major purpose of this family reunion, is to get to know them. I've made the first step in doing that by talking to them all, and it's been very good. All five of them seem to be very nice men.
