It's the small things

that make life more bearable.

Firstly, a Polish food store has opened up a 10 minute walk from here! They were sadly out of veggie perogies today but will have a shipment later in the week. The selection of poppy-seed laden pastries was a bit poor as well but I'll see what it's like when I go score my perogies. Jason got his fix of Polish sausage product, and I got a bag of truly evil cookies.

On Tuesday I finally snapped with regard to my perpetual bad hair days, so I've had a drastic haircut. It looks good, and my conditioner budget should go down. Unfortunately for the lazy slob in me, it's a hair style rather than a hair cut, so it will require effort and regular trips to the hairdresser to maintain, or it will swiftly start to look terrible. I think I'm fed up enough with always looking like crap to make the effort. I've booked in to have the colour done in three weeks and thus have that long to decide if I want to stay blonde or not.

Yesterday we had barbecue fun chez sarah_mum. Many thanks for putting up with us. I like this Leaving the House business.

In the house hasn't been so bad either. We just watched the first three episodes of Ewan McGregor And Charley Boorman - Long Way Round. So far, it's an absolutely top series, and many thanks to bar_bar_ella for reminding me of its existence.

If only tomorrow wasn't Monday.
