Home



The house seen from the outside.

It looks like the day will finally be here soon - when we can start moving into our new apartment! Tomorrow we'll start putting a few things up there, just to get some more space down here. We'll be attending this yearly training-weekend near Oslo, at Kvennin this weekend, and when we get back we'll move upstairs ^^

I'm just gonna add some photos before going to bed. Enjoy! 

Our bedroom! And my sofa ;)

Living-room.

Coming kitchen to the left, big living-room and balcony. Bathroom is through a door to the left.

Balcony to the left, bedroom straight ahead.

This will be our kitchen! 


One's home is like a delicious piece of pie you order in a restaurant on a country road one cozy evening - the best piece of pie you have ever eaten in your life - and can never find again. After you leave home, you may find yourself feeling homesick, even if you have a new home that has nicer wallpaper and a more efficient dishwasher than the home in which you grew up. -Lemony Snicket

Autumn!






Leaves are starting to turn red and yellow, the rain keeps pouring, and the air's gotten a lot colder since the last time i wrote here.
I wish my mind was as nice as the autumn-forest, but I keep getting this uneasy feeling in my gut. What really bothers me is work; I don't like my job, and just the thought of working makes me feel sick. The problem isn't the job in itself, more the environment at the office. It doesn't seem like the leaders are interested in co-operating with the employees at all, which affects everyone there. The atmosphere is somewhat tense and  awkward, people are pissed off, but no-one cares to confront anyone to sort things out. I don't like being treated like a hired driver either; I'm there to clean, not to drive. Not always at least. I don't like pressure. And I'm afraid of doing something wrong. I think my main problem is that I take myself too seriously. I'm afraid. Afraid of making a fool of myself, afraid of showing that I'm human. But despite my fear I keep talking. About everything, too people I don't know; I keep telling them things I wasn't prepared to tell. In example, I keep telling the people I work with that I'm not used to driving, maybe even that I'm afraid. Because I want them to understand if I do something wrong. For some reason I want them to know that I'm nervous, even-though I try to hide it. It makes no sense. I make no sense.




But it's autumn! Yesterday, we stopped by a flea-market on our way to the forest! We ended up with a green sofa, quite old, very pretty, for 100nok. Amazing!
