Phoneless Tuesday

Yup! I managed to forget my phone at home. Bit of a problem today, as I'll have to call the PC shop and tell them how they can reach me.

I'm worried about Ziva. She's not her usual self, not last night nor this morning. I put some ointment on her wound last night and noticed that it's not the same wound - but there are more wounds, in the same area. How? She hasn't had a run-in with Smeagol since I last checked her wounds ... yet there's quite a big wound next to the now three small ones? None were wet, so I just put the healing ointment on.

This morning she wouldn't let me near her - she hid under the scratcher. When she came out for water, I felt something a little wet ... but she immediately went back under the scratcher. I'll have to check properly tonight. This worries me ...

Work trouble kept me awake last night.

As a result, I woke up quite late. And forgot to pick up my phone - though I did pack my smartphone. And my shopping list.

I tried ordering mippies' spot-on and Whiskas ... but the payment option isn't working. Eventually I opted to make a standard EFT payment & send proof to them. Sigh ... 

I'm worried about Ziva, though ... her behaviour this morning - hiding from me, instead of mipping for scritches - not normal. And abnormal behaviour in pets is always reason to worry ... 

I phoned about my PC. Problems. Basically he's now running into the same problems I've been experiencing over the years - but just ignored. As a professional, however, he can't. He'll need to resolve them. I fear this may increase the financial implications ... I told him I'd phone again around three, as he now has no means of contacting me. 

At work, mails are flooding in ... I guess I'd better get busy ...

Okay, done. I've now brought a book to work, and it's amazing how much reading I can get done while I wait for the PC to finish calculating!

I called the shop and they said my PC is ready, so I left right away! It's whoooosh fast now! Wicked! Starts so fast now, I can't even turn around and it's going full steam!

On the way back, I stopped at Ninapark. I spent a lot of money ... meat prices have sky rocketed! Again! I struggled to afford the 40% increase recently - now it's gone up 70%! In total, not on top of the 40%. Completely out of my range, now. I did buy one packet of sirloin, though. Can't afford to share that with mippies, though.

I'll have to re-pack and vacuum pack the meat on Saturday, to fit in the freezer. It'll keep me busy a while, I'm afraid.

For tonight, I treated myself to Sushi. Again, not sharing. Yum, yum, yum!

I've checked on Ziva, looks like everything is healing. Again. For now, I'm going to take my bath ... I should wash my hair tonight, but it's so cold ... I don't relish the thought! Well, mippies are here for cuddles. I've got the basics working on the PC ... I'll see about an audiobook for tonight ...
