I’m back with my Apple wireless keyboard with some cool music playing in the background. Jars of Clay 🙂 The sun is shining bright outside. A simple lovely scene when the leaves are green in a golden way. The walks are especially pleasurable when the wind massages my face, the little hair I have gets…

Random thoughts while everyone is watching “Scooby Doo”
Life without a car doesn’t just make you walk more, it makes you observe your surroundings more. The extra exercise is a bonus! It’s nice to be in a neighborhood where you bump into familiar people on and off. It gives you a sense of community and connection. Going to get the groceries turns into…
Random Thoughts after lots of walking
Ewan did pretty well considering the amount of walking he’s done thus far. He enjoys running. But he’s had a couple of falls without too much damage. It’s not going to dampen his zeal to run … “to infinity and beyond!” So often, when we’re in a new environment, the first month is mainly getting…
Random Thoughts on a quiet Sunday evening in Norway
It’s really very quiet now. The lack of noise seems to help everyone in the family fall asleep pretty fast :-). Ewan, the last I saw him was gradually slipping into his much needed slumber. The rest are sound asleep. It’s pretty late anyway. I’m slowly after one week of arriving Kristiansand working out my…

Random Thoughts on a quiet evening in my room at Kristiansand

Of course, while being…
Random Thoughts on the third day of the REL600 PhD Course in Scientific Theory and Method
I haven’t decided whether I will start a new category tentatively named as "Norwegian Notes" yet. But for now, I’ll use random thoughts since this is random. I’ve only managed to post my Project 365 photos up. But images are never enough to convey the greater depth of the experiences thus far. So, even if…

Random Thoughts on the First Night of the First Day of 2011
"New beginnings". That seems to be the two key words for me tonight. Having this moment of solitude is precious, even though I’m not preparing a sermon like I would used to do. For once I’m not thinking about the grand message I need to preach tomorrow to chart the year ahead. Today, officially I…
Random Thoughts on the 4th Day of Christmas
I noticed that the last two days I’ve two pretty good naps 🙂 It’s been a while since I’ve winked 80 times so soundly. There were sporadic interruptions, but the pleasure of waking up refreshed is a pleasure nonetheless. The two older kids Gareth and Elysia are doing well. They had their favorite chicken drumstick…
