Hopefully by today, they have come and gone. Well it's just gone past 10am, so three hours left to wait.
Time goes slowly when you want something over and done with so you can relax the rest of the week.
I don't even feel hungry, considering I've been up for hours. I did have some pakoras yesterday and it had that pakora taste, yum.
Unlike the last time with an onion bhaji taste, which is not what you expect.
I forgot to dip it but later on, if my appetite ever arrives.
Ah so I remembered that the landlord said that they were doing emergency alarm tests and that's who knocked, an electrician, to say they are changing the smoke alarms and fitting in some contraption.
So I'm not sure about the other appointment. It's 10.30ish and he seems pleasant enough but I left him to it.
I'm glad it's happening on the same day or is this the sole appointment?
It's very confusing. I guess I'll see when 1pm rolls around, if anyone else shows up?
I can't stop yawning and every door slam and noise makes me jump.
The funny thing with the alarm appointment was that they didn't mention needing access to our homes so I felt really weird letting him in......
Hmm, bless that took about 40 minutes and he swept up after the drilling.
Plus he knocked and waited, didn't burst in! What a relief. That took a while.
I think he checked in after he was done because I wasn't expecting it to last that long.
But at least he was friendly, that helps. I don't feel hungry it's just 11amish.
Maybe I'll wait until lunchtime. I'm so confused and none of them offer ID ffs!
It was pretty funny, luckily I had finished the post because the electricity went.
No wifi, the blankie turned off, brrr, freezing and I want to turn on the heating but what if the other one shows up....
At least I had tons of mobile data so that wasn't a problem, I just couldn't use the laptop.
Hmm definite dodginess. I'm supposedly in rent arrears? How how how?
I've not missed payments and the double talk?? I honestly do wonder if the operatives are skimming off the top.
I asked her directly what do I owe? Suddenly it's Ohhhh pay the usual, to cover your arrears of £170 or £40...
There's so much inconsistency.... And then she's like, Ohh next time you'll be in credit...
I don't trust any of them! I don't really know what the hell to tell UC now....
If it's arrears based, that's my issue apparently and not theirs but what if it's lies?
How would I prove it and still have a roof over my head?? I'm not trying to be homeless.
I want to change but I have an hour and 20 minutes left.
It's always so weird when they only have an appointment in my place and not the neighbours...
I don't know if he removed the smoke alarms in lieu of the box, that goes direct to the landlord and maybe the fire department or changed them??
Oops forgot to do the thing I normally do, which is play foodie videos to get me in the hunger mood.
Six minutes and then I guess it will be time to relax because 1pm has passed and there's no text or call..
I'm trying to think back on the call, she mentioned the boiler and then backtracked and said it's nothing to do with that...
Even though supposedly it needs a repair and that was ordered..
Then she mentioned sensors and I'm wondering if that's the electrical fire safety box thingy?
Ok it's past 1pm now. Ugh. Well at 6pmish maybe there was a buzz at the door but it was the stupid neighbours so I ignored that.
Oh yea I better do an Iceland order for tomorrow and even though I ate the salad that was supposed to go with the rotis, it will still be good.
I wonder if I should heat it on the panini press or the microwave?
