Tuesday
Yesterday turned out to be a bit of a wash out. I had arranged for the electricity and gas meters to be updated to SMART meters and the engineers were scheduled to arrive between 8 am and 10 am. There had been texts from them every day for a week leading up to this so I was sure they'd arrive on time, but I was wrong. At 10:30 am I got a phone call from their office to say they were delayed and they eventually arrived at 1:30 pm. It was one of those mornings where I put off starting anything because I was expecting them to turn up any minute, so in the end nothing got done!
The afternoon wasn't much better. They were here for ages as they had problems with the gas meter, and because the power was off all the time they were here, it was freezing in the house. I whacked the heating up after they left, snuggled up under a blanket and thawed out slowly!
Today is supposed to be a walk with L but we haven't made any firm plans so I don't know if that will happen. If not, I'll go round to The Nursery (the garden centre in the next village) and have a look at what they have on offer. I'm not planning to buy anything but that doesn't really mean anything ... if I see something I like, I'll buy it and worry about where it's going afterwards!
Oh, that's too bad that the changing of the meters took practically all day, first waiting for them to arrive and then, waiting for them to finish the job!
ReplyDeleteI hope your day turns out a little better, today. Hope you do get to walk with L, but, if not, a visit to the garden center and looking at what they have would be fun, too. Enjoy your day, whatever you end up doing. :)
It's raining at the moment so anything outdoors seems unlikely today, but on the plus side the heating is on and the house is lovely and warm.
DeleteYesterday was frustrating but it's all done now so I can put it behind me. xx
What an annoying day for you. It's done now so that's good and I hope today goes loads better for you.

It was just one of those days! Today is much better thanks, even though it's raining so the walk is cancelled. We're chatting via WhatsApp this afternoon instead.
DeleteOH cannot wait to see what you got at The Nursery.
ReplyDeleteNothing! I didn't go and sorted out the understairs cupboard instead!
