An underwear crisis

It rained ALL NIGHT.  And it is still raining..............

I went to gym :  PUMP and zumba and then went  home.

NOTE :  This was a slight change of plan.  On Tuesday,  Mom agreed "we" could have bulldogs for Christmas, so I made the arrangements to pick them up today. On Wednesday, she changed her mind.  I did not change the plans.  I thought the cold feet would pass and it, kind of had.  Last night I got, "well do what you want".  Now I know this is code, for don't do it, but I was going to....................... but not now.  It has not stopped raining, since Tuesday night, the odds, I will actually get to the farm, in the Opel, must be slim and none.  Plus, the forecast, says, it will rain, for another 5 days.............expecting two farm bulldogs to cope, with being trapped in a suburban size kitchen, not really fair on them.  Or Mom.   Very disappointed !


The rain situation was hammered home, by the scene which greeted me, when I arrived home. Today's blip. Apparently, Mom has got to the point, she has NO CLEAN UNDERWEAR.  This was her solution.  It did make me laugh.  Although, it is NOT a  laughing matter.


I took her grocery shopping, IN THE RAIN.

When we returned, she was being load shedded. The power had just gone off, so lunch was delayed, by 3 hours.

She sat and read the paper.  I sat and read the computer.

I had a heads up, that this was going to happen, so I brought the "new" computer, along with the "old" computer home.  The "new" computer has a battery capacity of 3 and a half hours.  My "old" computer, can go 15 minutes, on a good day, without power.
