I got home and the gate was on manual. Sigh. Well, not a major issue, since by switching it to automatic, I’m effectively locking it, so I’m safe while I’m at home.
I saw a
missed call from the guard, when I called back he asked whether my gate is now
working. I told him, ‘Nope’ and he said he’d get the electrician to come out.
Well, I’ll keep my phone on me and an eye on the gate … but it’s no problem if
they only start working on it on Monday again.
I did some
basic chores, like placing the last Avocado plant into a larger bottle, and
such odds and ends. Then I tackled the strawberries and was disgusted to see
they had already started to grow mold! Yuk! Well, I worked through the lot and
saved what could be saved. I guess it happened because they sweat in their
plastic container, even though it isn’t sealed. In future, I had better take
them out of their plastic container when I get home! The blueberries also took
some damage – I saved what I could.
Then I
spent a bit of time in the garden. I started tacking the corner outside the
washroom … but eventually gave up! It’s just too much! The grass is of the kind
that can’t be mowed when it’s this long – I ended up cutting it, with garden
scissors! So I went around and pulled out a couple of large weeds, just to make
myself feel better and gave up.
I cleaned
the refuse bin, then looked in the fridge again. Those spring onions are no
good – only thing to do is put them in water and grow more. At least they have
roots, so … let’s see what happens. I’ve put them in water.
I also set
up another fly trap. Those flies are really going on my nerves!
Showered
and went to bed … watching a few episodes of Dr Who. The power went out, and on
again. Out, then on again. Then out for a minute, on again … fortunately it
stayed on after that.
