I still get a bit annoyed about it from time to time, but on the other hand, as I've mentioned before, I can hear a car coming toward/near my house from 1-2 miles away, and--that I would be hard-pressed to trade for anything, even closer stores.

All of what I need today I could get at the local shopping center. But it's one of those times I feel I need to get out of the house for a bit. Plus I want to visit the record stores.
But I don't think there are places in the Netherlands that are as remote as you are.
Before I can go shopping I haven to wait for a package to arrive. Which is currently estimated to arrive in 90 minutes. Enough time to do the weekly chores I think.
Meanwhile I'm also mentally preparing for Sunday. Because there several new neighbours, us included, someone's organizing a get together. We're expected to bring our own drinks and have an opportunity to meet new people. Luckily it's set to last only two hours. But the weather prediction is that it's going to be 29℃. So we'll have to wait and see how long I last in the heat with a lot of people I don't know.
