American in Norway

First... Awwwww... Thanks for all of the bloggy L O V E ... I wasn't in so much in a funk because of not having any more babies... not really sure why or what it was.... maybe it IS because I was outside doing summer stuff.... I dunno... but looks like I am back on the horse... So I thought I would share the "plan" - which isn't really a plan because we are going to "WING" it R I G H T? Eeek.... It will be interesting to see what we actually end up seeing/doing..... The thing I LOVE about living in Europe is that you are only a car ride from pretty much EVERYTHING... Granted my idea of a car ride may be different than most American's.... I grew up in TEXAS... so a "road trip" to Grandma & Grandpas was a mere 17 hours in the car... STRAIGHT ...through Texas.... Oklahoma... Ill... (I usually konked out by then... or mom & dad drugged us so we would all stop whining" HOW MUCH LONGER....." Point being... I grew up with 8 hours mi...

Yesterday, after speaking ro Bjørn, I was going to hop on the computer & post my "MAD AS HELL" post... Thankfully my American Dr. friend called me as soon as she received my message & talked me down.... she tried to explain things to me... Basically Bjørn has a Staph infection... "Gul"... the yellow kind... (that doesn't make sense to me either...) But he is on heavy antibiotics & will be in the hospital probably from 1-2 more weeks. I had my whole list of things I was mad about yesterday.... WHY & HOW did he get this STAPH infection... he has had to have been walking around with this infection for the past 10 months... (any wise medical person please correct me if I am wrong...) WHY didn't they find this when he went to the Dr. 2.5 months ago? instead of shrugging their shoulders & sending him home? WHO thought it would be a good idea to let his scar RUPTURE? Additional things that upset me..... After surgery he was put in a 4 man'...
