Some mippies thought that I'd make up for yesterday and stay at home - nice try! Sorry, I'd love to stay home, but where do you think your munchies come from? The rate at which they are going through the Iams at the moment - I'll need to re-stock soon! I'm happy to see them digging into the Orijen as well, though. Still going strong on the healthy food!
Back at home, I was somewhat unappreciative of a gift from Mini: half a lizard in the middle of my bed! Sorry, but that just isn't nice for humans - cats may appreciate it, sorry, but I don't!
When I arrived, that black and white cat was at the gate - I could have sworn it was waiting for me! Then, while I was in the garden, at first it just sat next to the braai, watching me ... but then it went inside! Into the mippies room! Seriously! I don't know what to do about that ...
I got myself stung while I was pulling out weeds. Very painful! Not sure whether it was a wasp or what - didn't look like a bee. I washed it under cold water, then took an anti-histamine - hopefully no lasting effects. Apart from the pain, of course. Which is bearable.
What isn't bearable, though, is that at quarter to eight the power goes out! Why? No clue! No storm, no rain, not even wind ... just suddenly I'm in the dark.
Well, the UPS works, as you can see! Plus it's keeping me online ... I figured out how to connect the monitor, but what I'm missing is speakers! Unless I find a way to make a plan - it's going to be a silent night ... again!
But what really, really makes this unbearable is the heat! I haven't had a chance to shower, yet ... I've made a plan by washing everything I could hang over the basin, but I can't reach my back! And then, of course: no fan! It's going to be an unbearably hot night ... at least I was able to place one online order before the power went out. Not going to take a chance now ... I'll have to place the second order tomorrow at work.
