We had a helluva storm come through here last night. I’m really glad I had closed the roof vents because it thundered and absolutely poured down rain for hours. It’s been overcast all day and a bit chilly – enough to out on pants instead of shorts. It looks like it may rain again at some point.
Pretty boring day today. I’ve been reading and now knitting to pass the time. If the weather had been better I had planned to take a bus into Florence today as we leave here on Monday. We’re moving to a campground outside Arezzo, which is quite near where I would like to live. There are a number of properties that I want to look at, so I’ll probably rent a car once we’re settled in the campsite. I also need to find a grocery store as I’m getting low on fresh food.
I had dinner at the on site restaurant last night. Why is it that a woman eating alone gets ignored and couples or families get waiters falling all over them??! It seriously pisses me off!! I’m thinking about making a placard to put on any table I sit at that says “Yes, I am a woman eating alone, however for excellent service I tip generously”. What do you think?
Since I’m a little low on food I think I’m going to get a pizza from the restaurant for my dinner which I will of course share with the dogs!

That’s about it for me today. Until next time, ciao!
