Choices
Submitted by khh on 13 October, 2008 - 19:32I seem to have made a lot of good choices since I moved back to Iceland last year.
I chose to rent a flat instead of buy one with money I didn't have. My rent is fixed and I'm allowed to stay until summer '10. And even though I'm paying a lot for the flat it's not so bad compared to what most are paying. The flat is nice, big enough and in great area.
I took a job within the public sector instead of private to be more secure in my job. Good job, great people and no worries.
So I don't owe much money and I don't have any money but I make enough money to live a relatively good life. I won't be going abroad as often as I have which has been my biggest money pit but I can still allow myself the odd cup of latté :)
What I'm saying is ... that even though Iceland has had a big financial setback and people are being financially abused I will be OK!

Turning pink for breast cancer
Submitted by khh on 1 October, 2008 - 15:33In October 2002 my mother (then 54) was diagnosed with breast cancer. She had a mastectomy of one breast and lymph nodes under her arm were removed followed with chemotherapy, radiation therapy and hormonal therapy. My grandmother also had breast cancer and had a mastectomy when she was 58 years old and died at 76 from other cause.
My mother is now off all medication and thankfully the cancer seems to have completely retreated.
Sadly not all are so lucky.
October is breast cancer awareness month. It is believed that 1 in every 10 women are diagnosed with breast cancer, please show your support. There are so many ways to do it.

Submitted by khh on 11 September, 2008 - 08:49Í dag á frumburðurinn afmæli. Þessi glæsilega unga kona er já dóttir mín. 15 ára. Mikið er ég stolt móðir. Hún eyðir afmælisdeginum í Landmannalaugum með skólanum sínum en tekur á móti gestum á laugardaginn :)
Eins vil ég nota tækifærið og óska móður minni enn og aftur til hamingju með 60 ára afmælið sem hún átti þann 9. september.

Submitted by khh on 6 August, 2008 - 15:57Nýr mánuður. Haustið nálgast... ég fíla alltaf vor og haust best. Dimmt á kvöldin en samt bjart á daginn. Hægt að hafa kósý með kertum og solls... æ hef ekkert að segja... er bara með "fuzzy feeling" í maganum og hamast við að hugsa bara eins jákvætt og ég get... Lífið er nefnilega ótrúlega skrýtið en um leið ótrúlega gott. Það er svo skrýtið það sem kemur upp í hendurnar á manni... alveg að óvörum.
Myndin sýnir hvernig mér líður inn í mér :)
Frábær dagur
Submitted by khh on 25 July, 2008 - 20:55Geggjaður dagur, frábært veður, sund með Anthony Edwards úr Bráðavaktinni (hann lá hliðina á okkur Eddu Láru í heita pottinum) og jóga, spjall við góðar vinkonur og margt, margt fleira skemmtilegt.
