TV.

There is actually something on TV today!
Canal+ is having a SouthPark marathon! (For about 6 hours!) So, that will give me something to do while I am ironing the last set of curtains. :)

And Terminator is on TV tonight, too, so, *phew* finally a decent movie on TV. :)

It rained yesterday and it has rained quite a lot today so far.. :/

We are hoping that when Fredrik gets home we can go to the... office where we can find out info about our mommy and daddy leave. Since I am unemployed, I won't get very much, which isn't a big deal. The office here in town is only open on Monday's and Friday's (told to us by the Midwife) but we don't know what hours.. :/ And it says nothing on the Internet.. So, we are going to go by there and see if we can turn in our "proof of pregnancy" paper. :/ :)

And we've been looking for a washer/dryer set. Fredrik found a set for.. 20.000+ SEK (3,000$), which is slightly ridiculous.. :/ :) There are only 2 stores in town that sell anything, and they have those extremely high prices. So, we will probably have to go to Karlstad, where there is hopefully an OnOff, etc, and we can get a decent set (brand name) for a good price. :) My two requirements are that: it has to be digital, and that they can't have any lower than a 'B' with electricity usage. :/ :) I'll be okay if one of them is a 'C' if the other one is at least a 'B'. :/ :))

I think we have both really missed having a holiday this summer.. :/ With a combination of the baby and his new job, made it sorta difficult this year.

We were going to try to take a 3-4 day road trip through Norway, just to have something to do, without going too far from home, but as soon as summer started, it was never mentioned again.. :/ :) I think we've been more interested with getting things in the house fixed. But I think this is the first summer that we haven't taken a "proper" vacation. :/ :)

We will be going to the US in December, so that will be a nice vacation. :) And my parents will probably be coming to visit us for July and August next summer, and we've already discussed taking them to Denmark. So, we'll make up for it next summer. :) (Hopefully it just won't rain as much next summer as it has this summer.)

The baby is getting a bit forceful with the hits and blows.. :/ :) My whole belly moves.. :/ :)

Not that much has been happening.. :/
I'm half way through the Harry Potter book. Fredrik told me to slow down so that I can enjoy it longer.. :/ :) The book is 607 pages (the 3rd longest book, tied with the 6th book in length, in the series of 7).
I am anxious to finish, and then start the series over again. If you haven't read them, I definitely recommend them. They are fantastic, for children as well as for adults.

Ugh.. I'm sweating.. :/ Our office room is the warmest room in the house.. :/ No fresh air gets back here.. :/ If we redo any other windows in the house, this room will have to be first - so that we can get some air circulating in the room. (I feel sorry for my parents, because this is also the guest room (with the pull-out bed), it is going to be pretty toasty for them in here next summer.) :/
