Extra long weekend thanks to food poisoning. Work may not like the extra time off but I'm not in the mood to do them any favours right now

I still haven't had the energy to go looking for the ginger ninja again, and as the weather gets colder and wetter he'll probably be hiding away somewhere. :(

Melbcat's ears are still looking a little sus. Unfortunately I need to clean her ears so antibiotics can work better and she hates having it done. I'm not managing the ear washes twice a day but will aim for at least one, and talk to the vet about restarting the drops.

I am really struggling with mood and energy.

Package has moved from Sunshine to Westmeadows. I don't think that brings it any closer to me, but at least it is still on the move and not lost or forgotten.

I think part-time. Morning and night shifts.

Second night of constant droning noise. No idea what it could be, but it's loud enough to be heard over the rain.

Apparently this morning's power outage was a just preparation for tonight. I think a transformer just blew up - there was a massive bang, a flash of light and the power is out to the whole area. I saw a few neighbours heading up the road to investigate, but as I'm already in my pjs I'm staying put. The emergency app is showing it as a tree down on the corner, and I expect that I will have sleep broken by the sound of workmen and chainsaws tonight. My new little emergency torch/radio is doing a pretty good job at least.
