Day to Day

My regular schedule during the week consists of taking Rasmus to daycare in the morning, just a short walk from our house. Then sometimes I have cleaning to do around the house, but basically I have a lot of downtime from 8:30 am-3:30 pm. Yesterday I was really busy with cleaning and I baked a zucchini bread which was a challenge. Not only was it my first time cooking using metric measurements but I also had to find all of the ingredients in the kitchen and do a little guesswork with "reading" labels. Everything in Denmark is in Danish obviously but pretty much everyone over the age of 12 speaks English. It's been pretty easy to communicate with any adult I come into contact with. I am going to learn Danish though because that's what they prefer to speak and I want to be able to talk to the kids. I'm starting language school next month so that will help make the week more exciting. The zucchini bread came out really good though, which was a pleasant surprise. I also went for a run because it was really nice out, mid 70's, sunny, breezy.
I picked up Rasmus from daycare at about 4 and then we came back to the house and hung out outside. Anne picked up the other 2 from their daycare on her way home from work and I played with the kids while she made dinner.
I was chatting with my mom last night and I was saying that I need to come up with some sort of longterm project that I have to complete while I'm here. Please let me know if you can think of something cool to learn/do that will keep me occupied during the day, aside from learning Danish.
