Beautiful



While looking through some old pictures online, I am reminded of great times. There were super cute pictures of the boys, great Iceland shots and (some how I had forgotten these) some really nice pictures of me and Davíð. These are from 2007.

Collections Canada

Completly by chance, I stumbled accross one of the coolest websites ever.
http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/mailorder/Coolest because I like looking at old things.

You can find all the old catalogs from Canada, like when they used to order everything from the mail! As far back as the 1800's!

I really like this Army and Navy catalog from 1932 where I can pick up a pair of shoes for 1.39CAN. Good deal :)

The best cat ever!

When I was a little girl I had a pet rabbit called nudge, but he died, so my dad gave me a cat, I called her Sugar. She ate candy.

She was so cool because she looked strange, but had the same markings as her mother. On my dads farm, every so often, another kitten would appear looking just like her. Must have been a family thing...

Sugar lived to a good age of 13, then my mother had her put to sleep, behind my back.

I miss my cat. There are a lot of funny things that happened in those days, but I am so happy to have grown up now.



So here we are, tormenting the cat.

OH YA, those couches have a great story too, but that is for another day.

We were sooo HOT!

Kimmy and I

Kim was an exchange student from Australia when I was 14 - 1995!


Like, I thought everyone knew that purple nylons matched purple hair!

Bad idea

Once upon a time, in 1995, I got a brilliant idea. I would bleach my hair blond so that I could dye over it purple and it would be brighter.

First I tried laundry bleach. Hair bleach seemed a little too pricey for me at 13.00 a bottle, so I thought Javex should do the trick just fine.

JAVEX DOES NOT BLEACH HAIR. It may have done some real damage to it, but the color did not change. So I splurged and bought the hair bleach.

Good old Blondisma...........

I looked like a troll.

And thanks to Kimmy posting all these great pictures online, I can relive the moments!
