Still not the best of nights, but better than last night. Woke up even before the alarm went off!
I had to spend a lot of time re-integrating poor Janey. Mewthos keeps growling at her, Mini hisses at her and Ziva won't let her near. So, I'm transferring scents from one to the other to the other to the one to the other, etc.
At work, I just called my landlord and the prospective tenant had already spoken to him, and my landlord is happy with the arrangement - provided his children don't stay there, because that would be a safety concern. Well, the tenant hadn't mentioned anything about his children visiting him here - they're staying with granny. He did mention his wife visiting some weekends, as she works in another province. I also don't like too many people around.
Called Jan and told him. He said he'd like to come around tonight to start clearing the room - I'll be home half six, as always, so that's fine with me.
He hasn't asked again, and I didn't bring it up over the phone, regarding rent. I discussed it with my neighbour, and he reckons there's no reason I HAVE to charge any rent. Knowing how little hard labour pays, I'm more than just fine with that. And the extra security plus the help in the garden will more than make it worth my while!
And no, unlike the plans my neighbour seems to have, I don't expect the poor guy to work full time, every weekend! For starters, what would really help me big time already, is, if he just takes over mowing the lawn! And we can discuss what else he wants to do - he's actually studied agriculture, so he has more knowledge than I do! He switched studies from agriculture to construction, because he found agriculture wasn't challenging enough. Which is a very good sign.
Since load shedding is once again from six to eight tonight ... I guess I better publish now.
