Wednesday. What a nice day today! Nice and sunny weather, good mood at work, cooking for marvellous guests – no meat, so I made a veggi lasagna with green paprika and spinat and more green for the green part and red onion and red paprika and tomatoes for the red, with home baked rolls – and it tasted nice.

Thursday. Me feeding people, today it were Ragnar and Family and Jón Valur and Eyrún. The weather is still keeping itself, There is hope, the heavens have not yet fallen upon our heads. Tomorrow evening I will go to a party in country side near Selfoss and I am finishing knitting the jacket I want to use. So, no time for blogging.

Late this afternoon “The Girls” met and we sat for four hours in a coffehouse chatting: The girls: 20 years ago we went together to university, age about 45 to 80. It’s nice to follow the lives for such a long time, seeing everybody getting families and kids and houses and these odd jobs. Guess who in what age was in Africa, in China, aso. (and so on) and is planning a trip to Australia?
The weather fills me with hope. 9 working days to go to summer holidays, including only 4 days straight (or bent) teaching!

Somewhere there came the question: Do horses eat fish? Yes, They do, and we have given them saltherring. Also cows are crazy for this stuff. It is the taste of salt they like and in every good stable you will find salt licking stones. They don´t eat it in excess, they get hey of course and then they nibble a bit out of a barrel.

Time is passing, yes, it is end of may!!, and little news from here. In between I was in Norway, attending the confirmation of my niece and met a lot of family and friends of the family of my sister. I took my oldest grandchild with me and we had a nice time. Cold there, cold here, the summer is lazy to come and in two weeks my summer holidays will start. Still, narcisses and tulips are flowering in my garden and the trees are sprouting leaves.
The Eurovision is behind us, poor Iceland, there were discussions how and where to hold the next Eurovision here in Iceland as everybody was sure that the icelandic song would win and then they didn´t even get into the finale. But as it is said here, the song was great as was the performance and european people just don´t recognize a good thing when they see it. Yes, you must be optimistic to be able to live in this cold and barren country. I was so happy that Malta got the second place, a beautiful song, a beautiful voice and that was it. No naked people dancing, not even to mention that this lady in singing lacked all slimness. So there are people who still got taste. As me.
As usual at this time of the year I feel a depression settling in, my mind and body long for warmth and sweetness and going outside the house you believe it will never come.
