Aaand we're at Stage 6 load shedding! Announced just before eight last night, implemented at nine! So, instead of only 2 hours load shedding this morning, it was from 00:00 - 04:30!
I spent a bit of time working on the center bed yesterday evening, but the ground is now too hard. I could do very little. I could, however, pull out the tall succulents that have spread in the bed - spread too much. I harvested tomatoes - box is filling up fast, again! I'll be making more tomato paste this weekend. I also harvested some of the wild Zinnia's seeds. Well, for now, I just collected the whole flowers, which have already dried ... I'll have to see how to separate the seeds, when I have some time.
When Stage 6 was announced, I ended up in quite a long political conversation with my tenant, via WhatsApp. Yes, we can discuss politics without conflict - we both want the same thing: everyone to live well. And since he isn't South African, and can't vote here - we're not in conflict.
Anyway. Chocolate is due to arrive today. Nice!
Not yet eight and it's already here! Lovely!
Load shedding again tonight ... might as well publish.
