More load shedding plus power outage ... sigh

Power went off around five this morning! Another 'poof'! I reported it just before six. On the Electricity Group, we were informed that load shedding has been extended until five Friday morning!

We're out Today 06:00 - 08:30 & 14:00 - 16:30. Tomorrow 14:00 - 16:30 and 22:00 - 00:30. Friday we're due again 22:00 - 00:30, but if it is suspended at 05:00 Friday morning ... 

Yeah. If!

Cat stuff just arrived. I realised on my way to work, that - apparently - I can't count! I need 4 spot-on's. I still have one ... yet I ordered only 2!

Big back-and-forth over the power outage. Many of the members on the group keep telling us how it's load shedding ... now updating how the power is back, since load shedding is over ... we still don't have power. At least I'm not the only one on that group, and in the same load shedding group, who reported it.

By nine, our power is restored. Shortly afterwards, I get a call from the artisan, asking whether our power is back.

Load shedding continues, though. But at least nothing scheduled for tonight. Tomorrow night is a different story, though ...

I got a call from Sir Fruit. My delivery has been quite ... erratic, this month. When they delivered the first batch of juices, they told me they're out of stock on some items and will deliver later. Then, on Friday, they delivered 2 more fruit juices. On Monday, they delivered the same 2 fruit juices again! Today, I got a call, asking whether I had received my 'Get your Fix' bag. Nope. When I told her about the double delivery, she realised what went wrong - they 'closed' my order as 'complete' after the third delivery. I'll get my bag tomorrow! And the 2 extra bottles they delivered - complements for my patience and understanding!

I was still trying to write my blog, but mippies insisted I come play!
