Autumn, Lovely Autumn

On queue, the weather changes. Drops 10 degrees all at once and the best season has arrived. I was lying back resting on my lovely bed, fan gently turning above me, after the last few days of constant excitement, dealing with Nanny and moving, then I realised the rain had began. I thought to myself - self, I could almost be back up north, as the sound of 134 cicadas in my left ear were hitting a crescendo. Only thing missing was the 40+ degree heat.

Suffering from technology anxiety at the moment. Learning how to use the dishwasher and the Washing Machine/Dryer combo. I haven't attempted the oven yet, or broadband, or phone connection. I can flutter my eyelashes at theses hunky Croatian men that are still on site helping us maidens to settle in. I had to call one yesterday cos I couldn't empty out the handbasin. It was a small problem of the user having no idea that if a plug is pushed twice then it will pop up and empty the contents of the bowl... mmmm
