Someone from other garden owners wrote a note to burglars, “There’s no metal for you to take!”
The only thing to do is to replace metal parts with wood. Then they won’t have interest in going to gardens.
Day 18:
Work week begins again. Today I went to donate my stuff to the Red Cross and charity shop “Otra elpa”. I think, I had too much stuff at home that I don’t need. When I was walking out of the mall, I put on my glasses and they broke and lens fell out. I guess, you just can’t buy qualitative glasses in the mall. When I told this to my friends in “Otra Elpa”, they started to tell about all other defective stuff they bought. Importers must think my country is some kind of dump where they can sell their defective stuff. It makes me so angry.
Day 19:
Today I went to shop (where I bought defective sunglasses) and wanted to change them for new ones. Apparently, sellers don’t know the law. Because I can return glasses within two years after they got broken even if I bought them on sale. Ok, I’ll find someone who will remind them about the law.
When I came to work, this guy was telling me how much he loves me (again) and I’m acting cold towards him. Of course, I’m acting cold! How am I supposed to act? He’s never there for me, when I need his help, but I’m always there for him. He disappoints me. Today wild cat wanted to attack me and I called this guy for help, but he was nowhere in sight. I don’t know, how that cat got into our facility.
Every day this guy disappears for two hours somewhere.
So, is he working hard or hardly working? :D
Day 20:
Today I’m celebrating name’s day. In my country we not only celebrate birthdays, but also name’s day. Today security guard went somewhere and completely locked down all our building.
One of my colleagues was furious because she couldn’t get in. I tried to find key to the door, but there wasn’t spare key. Then I remembered that she could get into building through the roof. She went up the stairs, me and other colleague opened door to her. After work we gathered on rooftop and were celebrating my name’s day. We were talking about movies, love and how local shops fool tourists and they should be punished for that.
Day 21:
Today I went to post office. I had to send parcel urgently-work stuff again.
At work I was talking to one guy. Our facility needs serious repair works. He told me that air conditioner once fell down on the floor, that’s scary. Luckily, no one got hurt. I don’t know, what’s the deal with air conditioners. Many air conditioners will fall down soon.
Day 22:
Today was my relatives birthday. She lives so far. I had to go across all city to see her. We haven’t seen each other for a while. People nowadays don’t pay much attention to blood ties.
Actually, because of close bonds and good relationships between relatives some nations don’t die out.
At work people who didn’t congratulate me on name’s day did this today! I have great work colleagues! :)
Day 23:
Today I went to my garden. I gathered some berries. I still was looking over my shoulder because I heard someone digging in the wood. Those could be people gathering blueberries or they could be burglars. Later I went to local shop to buy frames for paintings I made.
I want to give away my paintings as gifts to my friends and relatives. In the afternoon one of my friends called. I didn’t see her for quite a while. She gave me present. We didn’t meet at my birthday, so she gave present to me today. After some chat in her car, we went to the mall, which is far away. I didn’t recognize it. Last time I was in that mall when someone called the police and told that there’s bomb inside. Of course, everyone got evacuated and after police checked all building there was only one hour left before closing time. We went through all the shops. After that we went to city centre. When we came to center, unfortunately, most of shops were closed. We went to shopping centre “Origo”. There’s another sale going on. Usually, I can’t find good clothes on sale, but today was an exception. I told my friend about this new store on the third floor, but she didn’t want to listen until I saw add that said they have sale out. Then she started to run there. :D We bought new outfits.
Day 24:
Today I woke up too early. After dinner I went to meet my friend. We went to the same shop that we did yesterday. On one of the racks I saw T-shirt. Writing on T-shirt said: “Your mother is rabbit!”
:D That’s so funny. Again successful. We bought many cute clothes. After that we went to buy coffee. When we went in café’s WC, we were shocked. It looked like in one of those horror movies. Everything was dirty and flooding. Later we were sipping our coffee at the bus station. Suddenly, some guy came straight to me. He just stole perfume of famous brands in the mall and he wanted to sell to me them for half price. He said, “They sell this stuff for such high price! It’s not fair! I’ll sell it to you for half price!” I said, “No, thanks!” Then he started to offer this stuff to my friend, she also said, “No, I won’t buy!” It’s because some people buy stolen stuff from guys like this one there still are shoplifters. :( And he was even vaunting - he showed money he earned for perfume he stole.
We couldn’t shake this guy off for long time, but after we did, we went to city called Dole. We were resting on the beach. Later went to her place. I inspired her to give away her stuff to charity shop “Otra elpa”, she started to gather stuff. She didn’t find bags to put clothes in. We went to shop and when she bought bags seller said, “Do you need a bag to put those bags into?”
That was so funny.
After we returned, we gathered all the stuff and went to my place. At my place we read some magazines, talked and then she went home.
Day 25:
Today I got up late. At work we have a complaint book. Everyone can write their complaints there. I read it like a humor magazine. Today there were two complaints that sounded like end of the world. One said, “It is dangerous on the lower level of building!” Other said, “It is threat to your life to stand near elevator area, ceiling will fall on your head!” I got curious and went to lower level and there was nothing special. Air conditioner fell from ceiling again, there was a big hole in the ceiling. I guess, our building will collapse one day and burry us all under, but there’s much time before that. One of my work colleagues is on vacation and I miss her. I was last one that went home. Security guard locked the doors again, but luckily he left key in the door lock. I opened door and security guard came into the building from outside. He was gasping for air. He said, “Thank you! You saved me! I went to close the door on the roof. Someone locked it from inside and I didn’t have spare key. If you wouldn’t be leaving now, then I would be left locked outside the building!”
I guess, sometimes locking the building can backfire.
Day 26:
Today one of my acquaintances, that works at local radio station, gave me a box full of CD’s as gift. One of greatest gifts I ever received. All CD’s were with Latvian music. Songs are so beautiful.
Later that day I went to charity shop “Otra Elpa” to donate my friend’s clothes. Today was a rainy day and on rainy days there are not many customers. After that I went shopping to one of city center’s shops and bought more outfits for work.
When I came to work, I read complaints in the complaint book. One of them said, “There’s unknown liquid leaking from air conditioner!” Second one said, “Unpleasant smell after cats!” The second one made my day.
:D It turns out smell comes from ventilation system. :D
Day 27:
Today I woke up early. It was a beautiful sunny day. Later sky got covered up by grey clouds. I suppose, no sunbathing for today. Today at work was another scandal. Janitor turned place, where he keeps his tools, into dump. My boss was really angry. She made him clean the place and throw away unnecessary stuff. Security guard was against that. He said, “If he will throw away all brooms, then we won’t be able to clean after ourselves!” Why some people are so attached to old things? Why they don’t like changes?
After work I went straight home because rain started. Later that night storm started. Television went dead(like it usually does in storms). It was tropic storm. Luckily, light was working and I could turn on PC.
Day 28:
Today I went for a walk in the city. It was very hot - 33° Celsius. I haven’t seen so many tourists in the city for long time. Looks like they had a great time.
Today at work security guard told me that we have kleptomaniac on the loose. Stuff keeps disappearing. We have cameras everywhere. How someone mentions to take something with all those cameras in the building? He said, that he’ll have to start searching everyone’s bags if stuff will continue to disappear. Why me and others have to suffer because someone is taking something?
Day 29:
Today I woke up early. Sky was covered with grey clouds. Later that day sun showed up. I went to garden. There I gathered cucumbers and berries. It’s cucumber year again! They are growing not within days, but within hours. I was talking to my neighbor, when I heard car go by. Someone was loudly singing in that car. Soon after that we heard sound of metal being pulled off the fence. My neighbor said, “Oh, great, the metalists are back!” I laughed. No, they don’t listen to heavy metal, they steal it from other people’s fences. There’s nothing anyone could do about this.
Day 30:
The final day. Tomorrow I’ll return to social network. Today I spent at home. All day I watched movies and read books. There’s nothing better than a good book.
