Seems like we have moved..

..and settled into Rainsville. It's raining every other day now and today's no exception. Stepping outside without a few bricks in your jacket pockets, you'll be flown away with the rainstorm that scratches the skin off your face.

Luckily not much to do today outside. Wanted to tinker somehting with the car, but that gets postponed, a good master will not kick even a dog out and that means even I get to stay at home.

We had a specific idea for lunch today - we wanted over baked potatoes and black pudding saucages (blood saucages), but since it's considered sort of a Christmas food, many stored don't have those blood saucages in stock. Well, some have but a very small variety, but we want the best. Had to scour 3 stores to get our todays shopping done due to this problem, but we got what we wanted.

So rest of the day went by doing house chores. I even managed to bring up the reserve stones for the sauna heater and redo them from start again, that was the third time already- I replaced the old stones recently and after that, the steam from throwing water on the heater is too mild and moist. Need.More.Dry.Heat. I mean, not too much, but moist is not good. Maybe I got them right this time. I hear many people re-lay their stones at first to get them just right.

Btw, in estonian we have a word for that - leili viskama, leil - which in english is almost intraslatable. "To throw hot water on the sauna heater/stovein order to get hot steam" sounds too awkward, doesn't it. Don't you guys have saunas?
