I have my own business and do several jobs for people. Well recently took on cleaning for a factory. All went well until I did my night porter. The offices carpeting is older than me(which is scarey). It is shredded and lumpy . There was no set offices on list I had to clean. So whatever key the door opened I cleaned. I didn't get it all vacuumed 2 vacuum cleaners one sounded like it was going to explode,the other missing the bottom plate sigh... So let them know I cannot use. The other vacuum upstairs was falling apart and the cord was taped up. Needless to say they have to replace and fix them. I have been electrocuted twice in my life time. Once as child literally stuck a fork in an outlet,( I was 2). My mom said she thinks I died for a minute. Then again when I was in my 20's my dad was helping me fix up an old trailer I bought and forgot to let me know he had bare wires still sticking out of breaker box. Anyways leary of using bad or messed up electrical objects.

Yes, you gotta be careful around volts and amps. I've zapped myself from ac circuits more times then I care to mention...no good. Do you carry a plug in circuit breaker just in case of dodgy electrical equipment?

'Old, shedding, and lumpy', sounds like you just quoted my bio.

How'd the home brewed cat food go?

It is a big hit for Willow. She is the one needing to gain weight and can be finicky. Izzy doesn't eat much soft,he likes Rachel Rays hard catfood. Willow had gained a lb. she is now 9 lb.s. Izzy is leveled off at 15 , tubbers,lol!

Rainy day Friday here. In fact it's been raining a lot over the past few days, and the authorities are issuing flood warnings. We've only just started to dry out from the last drenching that caused major flooding and isolated us for a while, a few weeks ago. We've had about 1.5 metres of rain so far this year, and that looks like it might go up half again over the next week, according to our met bureau boffins. Pretty safe where I am, alongside the Bay. The water soaks and sheds off pretty quickly here.

May everyone have a great day 👍

Huh

In nz we dont have huge fish like that
we prefer those tiny fish called whitebait that you can catch in a net, and just scoop them out of the water.
New Zealand is blessed with an abundance of tuna species with no less than ten
(10) different species available for the ardent angler. These range from the massive
bluefin of 180kgs, or more, right down to the smallest representative of the family,
the frigate tuna (frigate mackerel) with a weight averaging only a few kilos.

Sounds like Izzy is a bit like me, stays at the food trough a bit too long!

I've given up trying to please Sasha and her changing food likes...she has more moves and shakes than a politician coming up for re-election. I just feed her bickies now, and throw in some wet stuff every now and again as a treat. She's been driving me nuts this morning, wanting attention all the time. She's housebound because of the rain.

Sounds like my sisters cat, stuck inside because he is sick. Driving her nutty.

I feel for her. I could offer the phone number of my psychologists but they haven't done very good with me!

Im meaning in the rivers
you cant catch tuna only out in the deep ocean, but its not actually a prized fish in nz, most gets sold to Japanese

whitebait is where its at for the locals

The other is crayfish, though the japanese try to take it all too. However, in sushi outlets (which seem mostly run by Koreans) the fish most used is salmon

Which is farmed down south, but its not a native fish

Ive caught a cold, its rather tiring

not asking for sympathy, but, you know how it is...have to cancel everything again lest I spread it round
plus mum asks why im lying in bed and Im like I am sick, this is what I do because staying awake is hard when your head is stuffed up, you are sneezing, you have to reach for tissues every couple of minutes to mop up your nose and well

what do people think having a cold gives you energy or something or it just means you have to put warmer clothes on?

Things have changed, but there used to be a lot of smelt in the lakes of Ontario.
They would be fished at nighttime in the spring. I remember being awoken late
at night when my dad would come home with bushels of them, and we would
fry them fresh, right then. Quite the midnight snack LOL. When looking it up online
it says the smelt population in Lake Ontario had declined dramatically by the '90s.
