little things

It's been a week of ups and downs here. The cool thing is that the weather has indeed been cooler lately, which agrees with me much more than the torrential heatwave that I've had to put up with in July, August, and September. There's a lovely breeze today ...

I had a graham cracker sighting yesterday - I saw a box of Honey Maids being carried out in the shopping bag of another customer. It must have been the last box, because I checked every single aisle in the crowded grocery store for them, but I do have reason to hope that they'll be stocked once again. I wonder how many days it took to sell out? It couldn't have been more than three days since I was there last!

I bought a headset so that I can get set up on Skype. We've been using phone cards to call home and to Chris's sister in the US, and they've been great, but usually the only last us 2.6 phone calls before running out of time. On the bright side, my headset cost less than the phone card. Hopefully that doesn't mean that the headset is a super-cheap piece of garbage.

I managed to order refill pages for my Kolo album from Barnes & Noble. I'm having the order sent to my sister, who's visiting us in December.

I think that I saw an honest-to-goodness yarn store at the CentralWorld shopping center, too. Now, all I need is a project to inspire me to pick up my knitting needles again. I've been distracted with thoughts of making a digital photo book. I think that MyPublisher and Tabblo are the front-runners.  Our thirteen months of Newfoundland will probably be my first subject. I'm really surprised how much I miss that place ...

it's odd how newfoundland gets under your skin, isn't it? i'll be moving back to BC in the spring and i can already tell that the 20 or so months that i will have lived here will have a big effect on me. leaving will actually be hard (i'll be giggly with excitement too, but it will be hard).
