Another day, come and gone... Today was actually quite a nice day, a relatively relaxing evening, considering. Gaute is in Stockholm this week. He left at about 7 this morning and will be back again Friday evening. Last week while he was in Germany, everything was pretty crazy, but so far, things seem to be going better here now. Hopefully, I'll be saying the same thing on Thursday.

Grim is still in the hospital. They checked his MRI scans today and discovered that he has another artery which is on its way to getting clogged, so it looks like he'll be there a few more days while they get that cleared out. It sucks that he will have to stay in the hospital (I think it's incredibly boring), but good that everything is A-OK before they check him out.

I spent a lot of time this evening making sure that Espen is getting his homework done. I had a parent-teacher conference with his homeroom teacher on Wednesday which I think was one of the reasons I was so stressed last week. According to her, all of his teachers complain that he does not concentrate and goofs around too much in class and needs to work much harder. So, strict rules and intense follow-up are the things around here when it comes to Espen. Hopefully this will pay off!!

Anders had his first day of orienteering practice for the season. It seems like he had a fun time. Lots of his friends are doing orienteering, too, which makes it even quite appealing. I joked around last night and said that he might be the new generation Langaas boy making a name for himself in the orienteering world (both Gaute and his brother were really good), but Anders didn't think that would would happen. He was much more interested in football...

Johan is pouring over a golf sales catalog that came in the mail today. He is making some big decisions about what kind of equipment he needs to buy. I asked him if he was interested in taking golf lessons, but he said that he'd rather just practice on his own. I wonder if he realizes that not every golfer has their own golf cart...
