How times change!

In my youth, November 7 was a bank holiday: the rememberance day of the Great October Revolution in Russia. Mandatory holiday for all states behind the Iron Curtain.

It was also the day we moved into our current home, back in 1977. Goodness, it has been that long! It was also our very first real home, ever since my grandparents got deported in 1953. So yeah, a very important day for us all. I'm glad Granny lived for another 19 years to enjoy being in our own after all those years; because living with my uncle's family from 1965-1977 wasn't always pleasant, either. Which is the real reason we have fond feelings for this particular date. :)

That said, we "celebrated" by having our bi-weekly cleaning frenzy today. Afterwards, I was dead on my feet, thus the battle with Vodafone got postponed for tomorrow. I don't think another day would count. I did a teensy bit of crafting: the damp coming from the locomotive's chimney and two more Christmas card, then I took a short afternoon nap. Afterwards I got online and even typed up a couple of paragraphs for "The Old Terror".

So, a busy day, but I got much done, so it's good.

Thank you! :) We do love our 53 square metres of concrete very much.
