It’s the end of the world….

as you know it.. It’s the end of the world as you know it. It’s not in honor of REM’s breakup I write these words, but it’s in honor of myself – looking back almost three months in time. There I was – feeling like these exact words – it’s the end of the world [...]

He was born in the USA!

Bruce Springsteen sang I was born in the USA, and I sing “He was born in the USA!” – who would have thought our next little bundle would be born in the US? Certainly not me. At least not two years back in time. It’s about time for a new blog post from the Torset-Pettersens! [...]

NOBODY PUTS BABY IN THE CORNER

I just don’t have the worlds most easy name when living outside Scandinavia. In addition to my parents influence from Anne Cath Vestly’s cozy books about Guro, I guess my parents’ plan for lil’ Guro was for her to always live in Norway.. I’m not embarrassed by my name. Understand me correctly. It’s just not [...]

Halloween @ 2010

Norah the bee

That great October sound!

It’s October! It’s Autumn! It’s rain! And the air is fresh! I love the sound of October! So, how about it? It’s seriously about time for a new blog post! It’s really been way too long since the previous post, but here we go! What have the new-ish residents of Playa Vista been up to [...]

It’s August!

It’s almost my 29th birthday! OMG! Turning 30 next year! (Where has time gone by?!) It’s still summer! It’s  nice and warm outside! We have had a great summer! We have become more familiar with the streets in our neighborhood, and the close by cities. We have checked out some of the beaches, and different [...]

LA-life..

..is good life.. hot life.. laxed life.. Yeah! We still like it.  Actually, let me rephrase that, because;  LOVE it, is a more suitable term. So I guess it’s time for a new blog! And here we go! A lot has happened since we picked Shelia up at the airport! And I’ll try to give [...]

Shelia – the LA-dog!

Yeey! Shelia, our chocolate brown Labrador has arrived! Last Friday was a happy day. We finally got to see her again after weeks and weeks apart! Well, we have to say, not everything was in the happy category! Definitively not the-pick-the-dog-up-at-the-airport-part, but the part where she saw Trond, and the part where she saw me [...]

LA-time = good time

Time does certainly go by! Now me and Norah have been her over a week, Shelia arrives tomorrow and Trond has become a member of the Yahoo! team. We have to say; so far so good! We are adapting the LA-way of living, which basically means to buy, and soon drive, a big car (not [...]

Complete Family

Today, Guro and Norah arrived safe and sound in Los Angeles. Luckily, the immigration process went smoothly and did not take very long. I was actually able to greet them just over an hour after their flight had landed! Norah is now a US citizen and Guro is an immigrant to the US. Funny. Since [...]
