GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED! THANKS FOR ENTERING!
Hi Lovelies
So what happened on Day 4?
Well Wednesday marked one week since my last "top up" and at least a day or two over that first week results in the "medical" term
Remicade Hangover. However the hop was looming so I pushed through with the help of extra steroids here and there. The 'roids didn't help a lot, but I definitely felt my batteries draining fast.
The video I was supposed to shoot on Thursday just didn't happen. "I'll do it Friday" she said. "BAHAHAHAHAAAA" the weather said!
We often get "severe weather" warnings and they're usually rather anticlimactic. My joints certainly felt way way waaay more achy on Thursday night and the strong winds didn't sound any worse than before, but when I opened the curtains I was greeted to this view (looking to the left of my driveway). It actually was rather minor compared to other places in the neighbourhood which had trees down on the road and other suburbs had much more dramatic damage.
There was to be no video shooting on Friday either. The sound of chainsaws punctuated by emergency sirens went on aaaall day.
If the sound of icky birds is picked up by the camera, can you imagine that as background noise?
Wasn't really an issue since we had NO POWER from 8am. At one point the estimate was TWELVE HOURS! It ended up restored sometime late afternoon much to my relief, but mentally and physically I was so drained I didn't even scrapbook without the pressure of filming.
On Saturday I finally felt as though I was clawing (see what I did there?πΉ) my way back.
I managed one layout which I'll share in the coming days. Today is Sunday and after a Zoom meeting I'm finally going to get my video on for "May I Scraplift You" (fashionably late as usual π€¦πΌ♀️)
I bet you thought I was going to leave you without any Cat Content (besides my Hello Kitty brooch in the first pic π»)
I figured soaking my paintbrush in a cup on the microwave would be out of everyone's way. I didn't account for the indomitable Fitz. He jumps up to drink from the filtered water tap to the right of the microwave (hoomin operated of course).
But why drink filtered water when you can drink purple sparkly water? πΉπ€¦πΌ♀️π€·πΌ♀️
(Note his white chumbles in the reflection!π»π»π»)
