My employer was taken out of commission by a ransomware attack for nearly a month.

About when that concluded, my fiancée contracted severe pancreatitis from a fairly routine surgery and has been fighting for her life ever since.

My doctor chalks down all the extreme dizziness and sleepless nights I've had down to stress. I have to hope she's right cause I really don't have the energy to spare for being ill right now.

So in summary, less than great so far.

Some personal favorites I have used or heard used lately :

"Der er ingen ko på isen" - "there is no cow on the ice" meaning that nothing is wrong after all

"Lave dobbeltkonfekt" - "making double confection" meaning making more work for yourself for no reason

"Gøre ham en bjørnetjeneste" - "doing him a bear's favor" - a well intended deed that makes things worse in the long run
