Allergies

So my new doctor gave me finally an answer to why I had an incredibly annoyingly itchy nose : allergy to pollen probably. I'm doing the tests tomorrow to find out what exactly it is. In Norway we have an expression which is cool because it rhymes and it goes like this:

FRISK SOM EN FISK (healthy as a fish) - that's what I've always been but I guess not anymore.

Oh well, at least now my nose will stop itching with the medicine he gave me.

Bad Blogger

Ouf, it seems I've been a bad blogger lately and not posted anything for a looong while. What have I done? Well, I have returned from my henparty in Norway where I had a great time. Since I was busy partying and absailing down mountains and drinking champagne in a outdoors jacuzzi under the snow, I haven't yet any photos to show you all. My friend the blue hen who by the way forgot my birthday but has been forgiven have all the photos on her possession at the moment.

Then my internet started working a week ago but with our box the phone still refuses to give us the right signal - a tone. So that complicates our lives quite a bit these days - wedding organisation is such a bit** without a phone (OK we have cell phones but since we need to ring italy we'd be ruined before 5 minutes have passed). We've had a few bad surprises lately regarding the "entertainment" previewed but it seems to have been solved now though it caused L to have a few nights of insomnia (I can't ever suffer insomnia I think, I even fell asleep being the passenger on a motorbike last year). Yesterday we had the trial at the restaurant and we ate divinely well and I don't think anyone will even think about food for a few days after our wedding because there will be a lot to eat.

My hairdresser Filippo let me down yesterday *argh* He is sweet and good at what he's doing but tried to take advantage of the fact that I was a foreigner and gave me a price for his services that would take me to New York for a long weekend incl. hotel for 2. No way he would have charged a local person the same price! So that means I'm changing hairdressers and won't be able to do the proper trial until a week before my wedding. Luckily I've chosen a hairdo that won't take 3 hours to do...

Everyone seems to tell me lately : It's not long now... We'll see you soon. Only four weeks. That sends me straight into a state of hyperventilation and a panicked row of thoughts of what's left to do. However I'm starting to calm down now realising that most things have been taken care of. I can't believe how much energy goes into a 12 hour party...

That's all for now! I promise I'll be better blogging :)

Henparty in Norway

Moving is done and it´s been stressful but we're so happy in our empty new house!

We're still without internet and I'm now stealing a few minutes from a friend's laptop in Norway. I arrived yesterday to spend easter having a henparty and spend some time with my family. This morning I found 2 of my best friends entering my front door while I put a foot out of bed still eyes closed. They came to take me away to be make-up'ed by a pro and to do a photoshoot among us 4 close friends (been friends since elementary school so just about 21 years now!). The photos will all be quite funny with us jumping and laughing... So now we'll always have a nice memory of us together no matter where we'll be around the world.

Tomorrow we'll have the big party but tonight is just to be spent drinking wine, chatting and eating good food. My friends are just sooo the best ever!
