Good coffee by the way!
At the end of October Svetochka is going to come to TRV and spend a week. Then we will leave and go back to Moscow. It has been a long haul alone in the Tiny Russian Village…
But working outside has become literally impossible. Fingers freeze and the chills from rain, cold and wind set in. I was blessed with fantastic weather for the short spring, summer and fall. I got a lot done. Just look at the blog, I have written about some of what I have done this year. Now it is time to read and write…
This weekend coming up, Sammy the Volga will have one more thing done to her and she will be (knock on wood) done. The front crankshaft main seal has started to leak and our guy who works on Sammy says the part is 700 rubles and about two hours of work…
Sammy runs, drives and handles like a new Volga. Not saying that a 1999 Volga even looked new and modern when it was first built, yet she could actually be at this point better than when new. Sammy literally purrs like a kitten at idle…
Kinda spoils all the good when the crankshaft seal is slinging oil around…
I will go to the Big Village this morning and get a few supplies. I need to get medicines for my heart and blood sugar and since I know that in Russia two hours easily turns into two days, I will be ready for such a thing to happen…
I am looking forward for my Sweet Pea to come and we will take care of some business for the homes, eat grilled outside fish and more fish. I have twenty carp frozen and waiting for Sweet Pea to come…
It is hard to believe that it is almost November. This year has gone so fast and yet so terrible in many ways. Sveta and I have been lucky; she loves working from home and I love working in TRV…
Time though to hug my Sweet Pea again!
