Our doorbell rang at 8:30am. It was the useless Servinet technician who came to test our system, see that all is OK "at this moment", and go away again. What a bunch of useless turds. I tell them every time that the inconsistency is the problem, even at 10pm when most folks are headed for bed, and the signal drops so my TV buffers... and they do NOTHING to check the root cause....
Cristina called me that our big duck, Pati, was out in the yard waiting to eat and that I should take a few pictures. Pati was most accommodating.
We once again set up an old television for Cristina in the new patio enclosure. She seems only interested in watching full Spanish movies on YouTube. She has little interest in the benefits of the IPTV system I brought down, so it will likely return to Canada with me.... She now has 4 working TV's in the house to watch silly YouTube....
I slipped out to buy a cushion for a passenger's tushy on the old electric moped. I may sit on it myself with my long legs and arms...
I had just finished installing it when I heard a truck door slam outside. Our Temu delivery of the new chickencoop arrived. I will probably put it together tomorrow once we re-arrange all the tools in the bodega in a reasonable fashion. The package was a lot lighter than I expected, so I am not expecting rave reviews........
I made hamburgers for supper for a change, I need the protien.... and the food commercials during the hockey games make me so hungry for Canadian fast food....
Then I went out back at dusk hoping to catch Tom Thumb but I must have left it too late. A gecko was active, then several swallows started buzzing the yard, much like the bats, but without the hinky-jinky flight pattern.
My friend Roger may stop by tomorrow. I ran his symptoms through Google and it advised to get emergency aid right away, as he likely has a severe infection that can lead to sepsis and something else.... He will try to see his doctor tomorrow and find out if a CT Scan might help disclose origins...
The dogs are being exceedingly good, as are the cats, rabbit, duck, chickens and pigeon....
I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.
