I knew about the power interruption that's scheduled to happen today because Ormeco shared a post about it, it's for their Annual Maintenance Keneme according to the information. I know it, but even though I know, I still can't help but get annoyed. The schedule for Bansud was 6 am to 2 pm, I'm still thankful that it's not all day. But still, it's really annoying. I can't stay in my room because it's too hot, and I can't use my e-fan.
I should be in my room right now enjoying my time there while Hiving, but because of this long power interruption, here I am outside enduring the loud noise coming from our neighbor's generator and the noisy and busy road with all kinds of vehicles passing by. I can't listen to music right now because my backup phone has already run out of battery. Aigoooo. Life is parang buhay talaga. ಠ﹏ಠ
I'm at the garage while typing this article. With Uno with us here. Mama's cat is in the window, probably enjoying the fresh air coming in there. Mama is downstairs too, lying on her favorite long chair. And because I informed her last night about this scheduled power interruption, she was able to charge her phone last night. She's busy listening to some scary stories on YouTube again, lol. Her favorite pastime.
I didn't stay in one spot, though. I walk back and forth to exercise my legs, and I also decided to just enjoy the view in our backyard. I also visited Mama's garden to check if there's something new in there again, and I noticed Mom's calamansi tree growing. It sprouted a new branch, making it looktaller now. Mama is happy with the growth but at the same time, mad because the old man downstairs keeps on picking its baby leaves and making it like some charms or whatever. Like, we don't get why he's doing that. I'm sure that affects its growth.
I also checked Mama's plant near the kitchen and saw these familiar plants under her Money Tree. Yep, it's onion. She said she planted the onions she has that started to sprout, and there they are now. It's just one though. She also had ginger in there before, but I guess she already harvested all of them and used them. Having this kind of plant is really helpful, especially if you forgot to buy them at the market. We have garlic too. I shared them here before, but then the chicken, dug it and now they're all gone.
I also checked our neighbor's backyard, and I think I haven't shared this tree yet. It's called Banaba, according to Mama, boiling and drinking its water has a lot of good benefits for the body. I saw how pretty the flowers of this tree were, but I never once saw it bloom. I asked Mama about it, and she said, It's still young, that is why. Hope we see it bloom someday. And this is the reason why they're not cutting this tree here. Because it is a good tree.
Anyways, the blackout took longer than expected. We don't know what happened, but still, thanks to this power interruption, I had the urge to enjoy our garden again, and that gave me the chance to see another beauty hidden somewhere.
Ah, 5:40 pm when we started our walk going to the Church. It's an evening mass abd we'll decided to attend. Happy Weekenduuuu!
