Oct 26 - Life in the Slow Lane

We're living in a lovely semi-detached (duplex) house in the middle of Ulverston. It is so close to everything. Shopping, pubs, doctors, walking paths, country. Still pinching ourselves that we're here. Hal has been here the whole month of October, but I just arrived over the weekend. Life seems slower here. Nice. We're good with slower.

It's Monday. Hal took today off in order to get some things done. Dropped our applications off with a doctors' office. I don't know if that is routine - applying for patienthood. Then we bought a car. Blue 2005 VW Passat. It should be ready on Thursday after work. Set up the car and renters' insurance too.

We just ate lunch at a tiny deli down the street from us. The food was good. I liked the bottles on the shelves. (Photo of deli)












Jack The Dog is reported to be adjusting. He's living with Hal's brother, Allan, and wife, Michele, in Manchester, CT. After the second night, through bribery I think, he goes up and down the stairs fine. And slept through night 4.
