Siesta time!
Jag hade tänkt att åka till Janet's igår men ju längre dagen framskred desto mindre energi hade jag till att tänka ut nåt att äta dom kommande dagarna. För att det inte skulle bli samma idag handlade jag direkt efter frukost. Janet's har fortfarande inte fått in mer av den grekiska yoghurten, Tina och jag har väntat i över en vecka tror jag på att yoghurthyllan ska vara fylld med den. Jag hade ingen fantasi att komma på nåt att äta mer än quesadilla, jag hade hoppats på att det skulle finnas grillad kyckling med den disken gapade tom. Kanske har Janet's lagt all energi på deras nya butik som precis har öppnat, den verkar vara megastor. Nästa vecka när jag ska till banken som ligger åt det hållet då ska jag passa på att kolla in Janet's Plus som den nya butiken heter.
Grannen Ingemar lånade vår långa stege, när han kom tillbaka med den fick jag en flaska vin som tack för hjälpen. Det var en flaska Carlo Rossi, jag får kyla flaskan ordentligt då smakar den lite bättre. Kanske blanda en dagens eller nåt. Det är tanken som räknas...Dagen började molnigt och det kom en lätt väldigt lätt regnskur det blev knappt vått på terrassen. Efter den kunde jag börja med det dagliga poolunderhållet efterföljt av att sopa runt den för att få bort sånt som kan blåsa ner i poolen. Jag kände mig lite trött/lat idag så jag skippade att skyffla grus, måla och göra rent vattenrännan utanför porten. Alla blommor på och närmast terrassen har fått vatten, kvar att vattna imorgon är dom i uterummet och blommorna som hänger i träden.
Jag bestämde mig för att skrubba trappstegen upp till studio 1 och 2, eller snarare den delen som är mellan stegen. Jag kan inte för mitt liv komma på vad det heter på svenska, konstigt nog vet jag vad det heter på engelska, stair riser?! Hur som helst, cementkanten blir extra smutsig och luddig av golvmoppen, nu skrubbade jag allt med en skurborste för bättre resultat.Siesta time!
I had planned to go to Janet's yesterday, but the longer the day progressed, the less energy I had to think of something to eat in the coming days. So that it wouldn't be the same today, I went shopping right after breakfast. Janet's still hasn't received any more of the Greek yogurt, Tina and I have been waiting for over a week that the yogurt shelf should be restocked with it. I had no imagination to think of anything to eat other than quesadilla, I had hoped that they would have grilled chicken but that counter was empty. Maybe Janet's has put all energy into their new store that has just opened, it seems to be mega-sized. Next week when I'm going to the bank which is in the same direction, I'll take the opportunity to check out Janet's Plus, as the new store is named.
My neighbor Ingemar borrowed our long ladder, when he came back with it I got a bottle of wine as thanks. It was a bottle of Carlo Rossi, I'll have to chill the bottle properly then it will taste a little better. Maybe mix it with something. It's the thought that counts...The day started cloudy and there was a light, very light rain shower that barely made the terrace wet. After that, I was able to start with the daily pool maintenance followed by sweeping around it to remove things that could blow into the pool. I felt a little tired/lazy today so I skipped shoveling gravel, painting and cleaning the gutter outside the gate. All the flowers on and closest to the terrace have gotten water, the ones left to give water are the ones in the outdoor room and the flowers hanging in the trees, I will do that tomorrow.
I decided to scrub the steps up to studios 1 and 2, or rather the part between the steps. I can't remember what it's called in Swedish, strangely enough I know what it's called in English, stair riser. Anyway, the cement edge gets extra dirty and fuzzy from the floor mop, now I scrubbed everything with a brush for better results.I probably have to make a "to-do list" for our open house so that I have time and remember to do everything I think needs to be done before. An important thing is to have the pool well filled, clean and fresh and to have the pool pump on that day, but that I will remember without it being on the list. It's the other small "visible" things that I have to remember to do, I will skip washing windows, I may wash the door and the window in the door to the roof terrace because it didn't look so fresh when the sun was shining on it.
A while ago I got a message from Efrain, our internet support who said that soon we will have fiber internet in Procab. A week later I got information that there is now fiber in Procab and that in about a week he will come to connect our house. Time passed and Efrain didn't come, when over two weeks had passed I asked if he would come soon. Then the answer was that he was waiting for something, he wrote 48 I don't know what it is. It would be good if we got fiber soon because the wires that hold the long pole in place with the satellite dish are very rusty, and where the pole has been extended the joint is like a wide rust belt. One wire has already broken, I really hope we don't get any crazy wind because then there is a risk that everything will collapse into the ground, which has happened once.
