Yesterday: grocery shopping to refill the pantry and fridge after several days’ absence. In the evening, two of Ingrid’s friends came to keep us company. Our dinner, of course, was not appreciated. (A thai style curry with sweet potatoes, kidney beans, sweetcorn and cabbage, in a coconut cream and peanut butter sauce, served with noodles.)

Today: playgroup with Adrian. Then a nap for both of us – my sleep in Uppsala suffered due to a narrow bed, and Adrian has been waking a lot for the past two nights. After preschool, a trip to the library with Ingrid; and then to the locksmith to get a new cylinder for the lock on our back door and the new sliding door, so we can use the same key on all three. Installed one of them this evening; it was a surprisingly simple job.

Started planning this summer’s trip to Estonia. I had been thinking of renting a car both for that trip and for the rest of our summer holiday, but it turns out no car rental company will let you drive the car to Eastern Europe. Bummer. We’ll either have to buy a car for the summer (I am still not at all convinced I want to own one in the long run) or rent one in Estonia. Or make do without.
