Yesterday morning I found it very hard to get up and get going.
No way was I going to be able to get to the pool, swim and then catch up on all the little jobs I didn’t get
Round to during the weekend
So swimming got cancelled and I slept in for another hour.
Getting out of bed at seven I wasn’t not in a hurry to do anything
So a leisurely shower, some coffee and I sat reading blogs and deciding
On want order I was going to get stuff done.
Until the power went out!
So nothing needing electricity, like washing and preserving, got done.
I had no choice but to just sit and crochet.
The blanket is coming along slowly
We did get half power back, the lights worked but not anything that needed to be plugged in
So at least I could see what I was doing.
It was pouring rain for most of the day and the emergency app was going off
Floods everywhere yet again. Roads closed due to not only flooding but degradation from all the wild weather
I know I needed to rest. But this was very frustrating
Eventually the power came back on and I was able to good dinner in the oven
Today I did swim but came straight back home to get all the jobs done before my ouchie massage this afternoon
Hopefully the gods are kind to me and I’m able to get it all done.
The bulk of this post was written and supposed to be posted yesterday. But blogger has been giving me the pips
Hopefully it’s back on track today
Technology is great. It it works
Did you get much flooding? Good on you for listening to your body. Maybe the power going off was nature's way of saying take it easy!
ReplyDeleteWe didn’t flood but the paddocks are all wet again
DeleteVery wise to get that sleep instead of pushing on to swim. It was probably more valuable right then. Was it flooding that caused the power outages? Sounds likely.
ReplyDeleteYes I definitely did need the sleep. And I’m not sure about the power. Might of been all the water, or the wind. Or even a car accident I’m just glad it’s back on now
DeleteThe blanket is a masterpiece. You'll look at it later and remember that winter that rained non stop ☺️
ReplyDeleteDefinitely will remind me of the big wet.
DeleteHopefully will finish it before dementia kicks in
