Another day interspersed with rain showers, not enough to set the conservatory under water but too wet to make husband mine crawl onto its roof to seal the leaks with silicone. But nature needs water anyway after such a dry winter, and temperatures were comfortable still, so no complaints from me.
Hubby bought another load of Chinese food on Too-Good-to-Go. Blessedly daughter mine and her famous appetite will show up tomorrow- that's way too much food for hubby and me. Food in the fridge for two days is okay, three is one day too much. Since no cooking had to be done and housework was easily manageable I turned my tablet on and went onto AO3. Ploughed through a lot of fanfics no matter which fandom, doing the guessing game of how old the author might be- it's easy with some fandoms, which attract mostly young people. And if one reads the intro and comes to the 'sorry for the delay, had to learn for a test or do homework' part one better skips the rest and switches to a new fanfiction because it´s either an overload of romance or a Barbie meets Ken meets Skipper and and story. Typo of the day- apollogizing. Darn, unsurprisingly I rocketed over the moon with this one, and hubby was like Do I have to call for a doctor, dearest? Dear god, it´s one letter too much and I was practically detonating with laughter!
I found a gadget in a folder of Hofer I will have to buy come next week: a wildlife sound imitator. Oh, I always wanted to hear hedgehogs sniffling and birds chirping inside the house. Add crickets, and life will be perfect! There are days when I think that maybe the extinction of mankind is long overdue!
I had to do a phone call with the doctor´s office, which took me one precious hour- I could have taken my car to drive there (20 kilometres), get the prescription and drive back home in less time. While waiting to get through the mass of callers I listened to what was going on one floor down. It was loud, very loud. Hubby is dead set on ruining the door to the conservatory- I heard him banging at it all day long. Even found an axe- yet that darn thing works even worse than before. I told my husband to simply leave the door ajar and wait until everything is dry and cosy again. And if it won´t work then he will have to seek help from a professional. All better than break the window pane! Knowing that husband mine is a very stubborn person I hope that my message was loud and clear- hands off!
In the afternoon I was so bored that I continued with the owl container for my glasses. The container has eyes now and two ears. The only thing missing is the nose. I hope that my boredom will last until tomorrow. Then the darn thing might finally be finished!
My Amazon order arrived- two!!! new Blu-Ray discs for the time when hubby will be off to Amsterdam. I have already sent out a warning to the family- if my husband gets five days off, I insist on five days without family duties, too! Not that they all suddenly feel a longing for my presence and come to visit! I see no problems with my offspring and their offspring. Not so sure about sister. Since she lives in Salzburg she wants to meet every other Sunday, with me doing the cake baking and she the coffee drinking...
