Month of sickness and crazyness

My two favorites: Johannes and Asdis
That is October. The first two weeks of October were crazy. I started to work at http://www.hss.is/ and was still working for Marel. I promised to release Marel's product catalog for quarter 4 of this year. That took 46 hours of work. I only had time to work after the children were asleep in the evening and on the weekends. I was so glad when this was over, October 17th.

After that the sickness took over. Or actually my father started his heart surgery preperation in the beginning of October. He was put in the hospital because his blood pressure was 120/200 - much too high. Then my grandmother got sick ( mother's mom). She has cancer and she got really sick... was hospitalized and is still in the hospital. It is pretty convenient to have her at the same place I work at. I visit her every day and hold her hand. She seems to be getting better now. We still have no results from all the tests she has had.

Then it was my dad...He has been heartsick for the past 4 years. Finally he got the approval to have a heart surgery where they fixed him. He had that surgery last Monday. Now he is in the hospital recovering. He is still very sick, has fever and it is really hard on him. I am praying for him and am really worried. But I don´t want to write so much about it.

My new job is wonderful. I simply love it. I love being back into the computer field. I love running around the hospital and helping the staff with their computers. I am learning a whole lot too and I feel I also have a lot to give and share. So I feel like I am in a place where I will be happy for many many years to come.

Iceland and it being bankrupt. I have so little to say about that. Joi and I have no debts, we own our car and we rent our place. So this won´t affect us as much as many people. Of course food and clothes and all kinds of things will get more expensive. Hopefully we will have enough for us to eat and buy gas on the car. We own everything and we don´t really need anything....So we will be ok. We won´t travel overseas though... that is sad. But hopefully not for many many years. We shall see.

Well. My son is sick today. Just like his grandfather - with a fever of 40°Celcius. I am going to lay down besides him and cuddle up with him. Let him feel that mom is close to him and protecting him. I am sending you all much love and piece. Please pray for my dad and that he will be ok. Much love, Gunna Sigga

New Job :)

Yes, I am alive :) I am just extremely busy these days. Sounds like ME :) Yep. The thing is that I am still working for Marel and also working full time in my new job. I promised to release Marel´s product catalog in the middle of October and do all the work revolving the release. So I am soooo busy. I just wanted to do that and leave Marel in an extra good way. I am very very happy in my new job and I will blog about that later. The children are doing great and Joi is doing great at school. Actually he is now studying and I just finished 10 hours of work for Marel.. I am really tired and therefore going to bed now. More later, just wanted to let you all know that I am alive. Yes... I know... I didn´t talk about Iceland´s situation at all!!! Also, more about that later. I am just very glad that Joi and I are debt free :) Love, Gunna Sigga
