First days

Oki.. Internet is up and running.
I now It's been some time since my last post but I culdent enter my domain.

So coming to the millers.. Hmm.. Well quite an experience..

When they picked my up at the youth hostel in the Fort Mason area of SF the first thing that chocked me was how short they were. They are both ecually tall (or short) around 1.50m or 5".
I diddent se the Golden gate that day thoug it was to foggy. When we got home to the house in Santa Rosa Bettys nephew Steve and his wife-to-be Sara was there to welcomme me. Steve seams like a really fun guy and will be my persone to go to when Betty and Sam is driving me nuts.

It's Steve in the pickture to the right on the night I came here.

Since The day I came here I've been introduced to the neigborhood and toured Santa Rosa.
Some Fackts about the millers:
  1. Nothing is so dirty you don't put it in the dishwasher.
  2. Nothing is to big to fit in the dishwasher.
  3. If you use the oven for something else than to do your pizza (the one you buy frozen at your lokal store) you're strange.
  4. There is no food you cant prepeare in one of the two microwaves.
  5. Betty is a "Pump" driver. You press the gas pedal to the bottom just to lift your foot two seconds later. Than guess what. Pedal to the mettal. Release.. And so on. Meybe a little exagerated.. or not..
  6. Baseball is the name got to watch all the games. Atleas the millers do =).
Had my first fotball practise today. O my God.. "You fucking sissis, Don't ever think you are anything without your team. There is nothing that will make you miss your god damn practise. If there's anything more important it's your family, nothing elese. But guess what The team is your Fucking family" Our coach was going on like that for 10 min before we went out on the field. Than we worked so hard I almost puked on the spot.
I'm going to practice 3hours a day, 5days a week for 7 month. I'm already loving it =).

And here's some various pickturesThor giving me a hard time making my bed.
cuisine
Store in Santa Rosa. BIGGG store..
Frukost, Blueberry Pankakes.
I'm about to compete in candy apple eating.
We are located at the Apple fair in Sebastapool. (somewere near santa rosa)
Guess what. I came on splitted first place along with the other dude in the picture.

Well it's getting cind of late.. Write more later.
Post questiones to get an awnser.

I guess you have to watch out really good for the tremendous amount of calories you're consuming every day... Blueberry pancakes and candys.. you have to excersise most part of the day in order to keep your belly dimensions at bay ;-) When my sister was in the states for one year she gained (and she's normally rather thin) around 20 kilos which equals approximately 40 percent of her normal body weight. Furthermore, her width almost exceeded her length :-)
