Hmmm

It's seven weeks 'til school starts, and rainy as all-get-out. I don't quite know what to do with myself.

See, here's the thing. I like to be busy, but I'm terrible at finding things to do. There's only so much laundry to go around, and I hate cleaning floors (which badly need it, grr). I get to the point where I'm lolling on the couch, whining to myself about how bored I am. There's only so much internetting (yes, I did just turn that into a verb) I can do before I'm super way bored and reading the same page over, and over, and over.

The weather has been such that it gets gorgeous right around the time Sverre gets home. Yesterday we went out to the Bygdøy peninsula and walked the trails around Oscarshallen before coming home and having a beer outside at our favorite pub. There's plenty of stuff to do around Oslo when the weather is nice, but on rainy days like today...bleh.

I suppose I could actually start doing the things I said I would do during this time off. Like putting together a closet (we're still living out of boxes in our bedroom, sheesh!). Or putting together a memory-trip book from our road trip. Blogging about said road trip. Going through stuff and throwing out papers and unnecessary things. Hmmm, motivation. Now where have I misplaced that?
