Una Doccia Bella

Our landlord installed a shower curtain yesterday. It's fabulous. All I have to do is squat under the nozzle while straddling the stair in the tub (the stair which was previously a built in seat when I had to sit to shower.). So, yea. I am pretty stoked.

It's never an easy endeavor understanding my landlord. She doesn't seem to understand or care that I don't speak Italian well during that day or at all when I have just rolled out of bed to a pounding on my door and drilling in the wall a couple rooms over. Ma, va bene. It's all a part of the experience. The only thing that peeved me was the fact that they left the drill dust all over the bathroom that I spent 3+ hours cleaning a couple days ago. C'est la vie.

Well, time to buy vegetables.

Dear Dani,

This is now significantly more interesting than when I visited in December. I will keep checking back. Which part of Italy are you in? I suppose I could google that, but that would make for not very good conversation and interactive posting.

I live in Umbra which is smack dab in the middle of Italy. It is the only province that does not touch a sea. I am about 80km northeast of Rome and 70km southeast of Florence.

Currently the weather is gross and is forcasted to stay that way for quite some time. Wonderful, right?

I sound much more unhappy in these than I actually am. I am having a great time; it just takes time to get adjusted to everything. Va bene.
