Another Week in Norway

Snow in  October.  Norway is a place that is never boring.  It snowed most of the day on October 26th.

We are trying to stay warm.  They do not have central heat so it is done with something like space heaters and wood stoves.  I have not yet gotten the hang of starting the stove, so we may be cold while the husband is gone in December.

It is getting dark her by about 4:45 pm.  During Decmeber we may only have five to six hours of daylight.  That will take some getting use to just like when we got here it was light until midnight.

We will not really celebrate Thanksgiving.  Hubby will not have the day off and the kids will go to school.  We are planning on going to the one hosted by the church that Saturday.  It is really different not having some of the holidays.  Some people take their kids out of school, but I don't see any real reason to do that since hubby will be at work.

I have thought about what I could post and I think I will do something on what we are eating here, ie my menu.  It is different here because it is not easy to get things and we don't have a big freezer.  I am also trying to go gluten free.  Just me though not the entire family.  I am going to see if it makes a difference in how I feel.  

Have a great week.
