Lock-down Day 578

Relatively good night. I woke up sometime during the power outage, but managed to turn over - without much of a disruption.

Mippies flower fountain isn't working! Janey alerted me to the issue, while I was having my morning coffee. I took the pump out and tried to clean it, but no luck. I switched it off at the wall - I'll have a closer look when I get home tonight.

The weather has turned cold today! From 33 Celsius in the shade yesterday, I'm freezing my rear off at below 20 Celsius today! On a positive note, it's been raining, raining, raining and raining some more ... at least, here, at work.

And in the news? More load shedding! Not happy ...

Back at home, Smeagol is mewling for attention! I decided to treat him to a pouch of wet food - with the weather having turned so cold today, poor boy needs something to boost his system! He's giving Mewthos attacky kind of looks, though - so I just stay with him, try to pet him, giving him as much attention as I can.

Not much time outside, today - with Smeagol around, mippies want to be safely inside, and with the rain - all of 9 mm - I can't garden, and don't need to water.

I decided to take the time to clean my PC. Inside. It was freezing up quite annoyingly this weekend. Boy, I pulled some dust bunnies out of the fan? Big enough for dinner! Ha Ha!

Looks like that also helped with the internet connection!

Some good news, though: we won't be affected by load shedding tonight, nor tomorrow night.

I got a message from my landlord, that the water pump is not connected to the other house ... I'm a little worried, because, when this house was empty, next door kept having to ask that the meter be loaded, so they have water. The house next door is empty ... but at least the neighbour in the flat next to that house will make sure we always have water pressure!

That's me, overthinking everything ...

Anyway ... time to call it a day.
