LS 1 3 Tuesday

I came up with an idea for my tiered planter last night, which - very strangely - put my mind completely at rest about my future. Like I've just invented sliced bread ... very strange. Firstly, because I don't actually see how it's going to work, and secondly ... well, secondly: so what? I don't know what to do with them, how to distribute and all that.

But I'm going to hold on to that feeling. Because worry about my future has been disturbing my peace of mind ... 

Drain is unblocked! Tenant is very useful ... now I just have to clean up. Turns out the drain runs under the bath, so both are now unblocked. Bargain!

I've brought out all my arty stuff, cleaned it up and put it in the trays. Now I want to try my idea. DVD player doesn't want to work now ... Sigh ... so I'm now watching Hitchcock movies, starting with 'The Birds'.

Followed by 'Dial 'M' for Murder'. Quite enjoyable, all of them. Now I'm watching 'Family Plot'.

I'm quite chuffed with myself for drawing perfect pentagrams. My technical drawing is really not very good ... not very accurate. That's why I'm so chuffed with such a simple shape. Not so chuffed with the reality, when I tried putting several pentagrams together ... it's not coming together the way I imagined. I tried triangle, still not what I want.

Aaaand we're going back to Stage 3 load shedding this afternoon! Until 05:00 tomorrow morning, when we'll drop to Stage 2 ... until 16:00 up to Stage 3, back and forth again and again, for the rest of the week. Sigh ...

I had another bowl of Bolognese, then I was tired so I took a nap. And woke up just in time for load shedding! Bleh! Seems my UPS is done for ... PC crashed when the power went off. Sigh ...

Tenant came for a chat midway through load shedding, left around seven. I got mippies in, showered ... now I'm watching the end of the movie I had slept through. This one is not particularly interesting, I find. 'Family Plot'.

Funny thing, even though I didn't achieve anything today, nor did I get much done ... I feel good! No guilt. Like I've had a good day.

Anyway, load shedding again from midnight till two tonight ... sigh ...
