Sunday 12th August
I am sorry if you are suffering from not having your regular dose of my blog but I have been somewhat busy. But busy in a nice way. We finally got the house signed for on Friday and I have been assembling sofas and beds and hanging curtains and washing floors, and all the jos you have to do when you move in somewhere new. And I have simply been too busy to wander aimlessly into the square and see if I can pick up internet from Le Pub, or Kismet. We will sort out some broadband coverage for the house in the next week or so. So, work has dissolved and is just a thin blur on the horizon. I am flying back tonight, because (well it is a bit complicated) anyway I will be returning on Wednesday, so it is only a short-term hiatus. The weather here in France is gorgeous, hot – but not too hot; sunny but with a few clouds; a gentle breeze and a hint of coming rain just a day or so away. We already feel so relaxed here in our new, but what is beginning to actually feel like our real, home.
I have been doing this blog every day for over a year, and while I still enjoy communicating my thoughts and rants to you all, I think I may begin to slow down a bit, stop worrying if I haven’t posted it every single day, stop panicking to post it every morning.
We are going to swim today at Lougratte in an open-air lake, which I am really looking forward to, so must dash.
