Weather


It keeps raining!  All the trees and bushes outside are pretending that is is Spring but I´m not fooled.  We have had wild winds too.  Our recycling wheely bin blew over this morning before it was emptied so I had to scurry about the street collecting bits of paper and plastic bottles, fun!  Nothing has happened to report on except that I got my hair cut and coloured yesterday.  They know me at the local hairdresser now so I don´t need to talk much.  It is not ideal though, I can´t explain exactly what I want with my limited french and their non existent english.  Oh I look forward to the day when I can do these sort of everyday activities in my OWN language......  Imagine the luxury of speaking to the lady at the post office in English!  It´s one of the drawbacks of living in a country where they speak another language.  I am not super dedicated to learning french so I know I only have myself to blame but hey, I speak more French than most of the French people I meet can speak English.  Okay, complaining over for the day.....
