Bad stomach

I am never going to eat a hot dog again. Yesterday, on our Icelandic liberty day, I decided I didn't want to cook a fancy meal. I bought hot dogs and gave the kids and myself. I was ms. greedy and had two! I haven't had a hot dog for ages because I always get sick in my stomach after eating them. And what happened last night? Of course I got sick. I felt so bad and wanted to throw up. But I didn't. I forced myself to hold it in. Now there are two things I will never eat again. It is hangikjöt, which is a smoked lamb and hot dogs. I feel bloated and sick after eating this kind of food.

I feel strange being a blogger. I really don't know what to write about :) but I guess I will get used to writing here and putting down my thoughts.

As I said before, yesterday was Iceland's liberty day. Joi had to work and I took the kids down town. It was crazy. Having to stand in line to buy balloons and candy and then there was only one castle to jump in for the whole town! It had long lines and I told my daughter, Asdis, that she could not get in. It would have taken the whole day to wait in line. Then I took the kids to my mom's house, where she had her annual June 17th coffee and cake. It was nice. The kids started fighting and crying and screaming after one hour there so I took them home. We played outside for a while at home and Asdis did great. She was biking and I took one of the support wheels of the bike and she was able to bike with only one support wheel. Hurray for her. Had a quiet evening and enjoyed going back to work today after a few days off.

I was really grumpy yesterday and mom noticed that. There is a dark cloud over my head when I get grumpy. Mom called me last night to make sure I was ok. She is the same way as I am. People can always see if we are in a bad mood. I told her I was in a bad mood because Joi had to work and I was alone with the kids. She said I can expect that since he is working as a detective. I should not waste the energy being grumpy when I know that he needs to work. But... I just couldn't control it. I was just sooooo grumpy!

Today I am fine, a little left overs of grumpiness inside me. I am trying to control it here at work :) Hoping for a good afternoon with the family when I get home. Think we will try and go swimming.
Ciao, Gudrun
