I have installed a coloring app. And I actually like it.

It's more of a hunt and find game for me.

Guess what?

I was on my connecting bus heading home when my sister calls to tell me that most of the power is out in the apartment.

I thought maybe a fuse blew or the kids from upstairs touched something in our box by mistake. Unlikely as that is.

I get home and went into the dark basement just as the kids show up to go down there too.

It seems that bits of both apartments weren't getting power. So now it's almost an hour later and we have most of the lights on. The microwave and the stove have power, but thing else. Anything that uses a socket is dead. Including the water heaters downstairs I believe.

And my day was going so well outside of my leg hurting me. Yeah, it still hurts. I thought it was getting better a few weeks ago, now it feels like it's getting worst. Go figure.

So, back to the crisis of no power. Of course my sister is flipping out. So unless we turn off our phones, they will be dead in the morning. That brings up how do we wake up. No phone, no alarm.

Lucky us we have old ipads that we use as clocks. Mine lasts over 12 hours when unplugged, so I told my sister to get the one from the living room.

Speaking of phones, I had to get a new one yesterday. Friday, I forgot that my phone was in my back pocket in my rush to use the bathroom when I got home from work and it fell into the toilet. And yes. I peed on it. So, I coughed up a little over $600 to get a new iPhone 7+. And I still have to pay rent. Yeah.

And this is the next day. No tv. No internet. No fridge. No doorbell and soon, no phones. I'm at 54% or so now.

So, I was going to say I caught you up, but I haven't said anything about the shower.

Tomorrow.

Later.

Went to Harlem today

Out all yesterday

Hey 👋

So yesterday day I had a short day at work. 10 am till 3 pm. The day before, or so, my sister told me of this thing going on at the cooulas and I callled to ask her if she want me to meet her there.

Din din

I was thinking of making some kind of pumpkin soup with chunks of fried tofu and perhaps some other boiled veggie. But that plan was a bust when I opened the package of butternut squash to find that they went bad already.

In my defense, I didn't know they were there. My sister went to Costco and she bought it and didn't tell me about it. When I got home, she had already put the stuff away

So now I was going to use it after finding it the day before, but it was a none starter. It was a slimy, disgusting mess. So what to do for dinner?

I still wanted soup, but once I roasted some eggplant and green beans in the oven and was in the middle of frying the tofu I didn't think they would work in the noodle soup. So I just made dry ramen noodles with the last green leaves from the spinach I still had.

It came out well. I can cook 😏
