I woke up again and again throughout the night ... work issues on my mind. Every time, I'd focus on my audiobook to clear my mind, then go back to sleep.
First, I'm going to get a few groceries. Before I go into Spar, I check out the Hartbeeshoek Butchery next door. I do know that they have the butchery bags I use, and while I'm there, I have a poke around. I decided to try some of their sausages - to bake into bread rolls. See how that works out.
At the Spar, toilet paper is on special - about time, too! I'm low ... anyway, I forgot to check for Sauerkraut. Sigh! I ordered an Eisbein, so I'll have to get the Sauerkraut elsewhere ... anyway, I got a few groceries - their fruit & veg prices are sky high! Way out of my league ... come September, I really have to start growing my own! So, the sooner I can finish that last jungle partition, the sooner I can start creating more beds ...
My spinach and carrots are sprouting under the tunnel, though - that's something! Oh, and the Brussels Sprouts seem to have fully recovered from the grazing - they're looking strong ... I have hopes!
It's almost four and I'm still catching up with today's 'to do' list ... I haven't made any progress on the drawings, yet.
At least my juice delivery has arrived already! That's nice!
Back at home, I had quite a bit of unpacking to do - and mippies got into the garage while I was taking things through! Fortunately it's a really, really short walk. I reverse into the garage, so I offload from the boot to the door - that's about 2 steps. And then I just slide it from the door into the lounge - to try to avoid mippies getting into the garage. But today it was a bit too much, and they got past me, ha ha! The longest stretch I have to carry anything is through the lounge! Yeah, awesome, isn't it?
I just took things into the lounge, and from there only after mippies were all safely inside.
For dinner I fried myself a steak! Oh, how I missed my red meat! That's one thing South Africa still has got right: meat prices are NOT completely beyond my means!
Mippies came to share, but had about one piece each and left ... Mini tried burying her third piece! Under my duvet, of all places! Sigh ... well, I enjoyed my dinner!
I've already spent time brushing Ziva, cuddling and singing to Janey, holding Mewthos, and now Mini wants her brushies ... busy evening!
