Hmmm... since the last entry we have had some serious rain and a few nice days. Actually, spectacularly nice days. Sunny winter days here are always good quality. There have been one or two bolts of lightning, one of which rattled the windows at Woolies, and the other woke Finn up from a sound sleep barking his head off at the invading mountain troll monster. I think he was a bit traumatised at that one.
We have pulled up the carpet in the old office, ready for the installers to scrape off the decayed rubber underlay. We did that ourselves for the kitchen and bathroom vinyl, but neither of our knees have gotten any younger in the years since then. Now waiting on an installation date.
I have an interview for the part time hospital job, next Tuesday. Might be a good time to get different work as the front end at Woolies has lost 65 hours a week. Depending who you talk to it's all the fault of getting self serves, another attempt by the company at screwing every last dollar out of their employees, or the front end supervisor rostering poorly over the last three weeks and letting the algorithm think we don't need the staff.
Mae is now twelve weeks old and resisting being a big girl. She will eat the muesli if I stand with her, but won't visit the calf creep on her own. She's on 6 litres a day in one feed of milk replacer. Yesterday was her first day on the once a day and I walked her into the creep and showed her the muesli. She wasn't impressed and threw a tantrum. She kept running out of the creep and ducking around the corner out of sight then coming back around as if she was just arriving. I guess that's the calf equivalent of turning me off and then on again to see if I will start working properly and dispensing milk 😊
I was sent this photo last week, I think she will be my mascot for the job interview !
