Last night around 10:00 pm 900 customers lights went out. and I went to bed about 11:00 pm and I woke up a short time later and my clock was blinking so I knew the power was back on. So I got up and went to check what lights were on and if the TV was on and then I went back to bed after I took a pill for this headache I still have. I am also not feeling all that great like I want to puke so I got my trusty puke bowl close by.
It’s going to be a very long day and at this rate I am not sure what kind of condition I will be in by the time hubby wakes up. But there is something defiantly wrong with me and I just don’t know what it is. I feel hot but my temp is at 35 Celsius and I feel a little bit cold and I don’t like what I am puking up. Last nights liver and onions and I have a feeling I won’t be eating anything today. I am having a hard time drinking my coffee so maybe after this one I won’t have anymore.
Come to think of it I didn’t feel too good about a month ago so I am not sure what is going on but I am thinking I should call the doctor.

Onto something else…

I called my brother yesterday because he is my go to for renting laws here and I asked him if the landlady can add the electricity and heat onto our rent and he told me no she can’t because the original lease didn’t include that. And she can’t do it till new tenants live here. But if she can then we are only obligated to pay half not 2/3 like she wants us to. But I am thinking I also want to call the rental people and see what they say. I have been telling her for 7 years that we need a new lease and that we would also pay the electricity and lights and heat, but she always said she can handle it. But now she is struggling and she says it’s gone up 50% but the truth is it’s only gone down 1.1% bit it will be going up 1.4% the next two years so I am not sure where the landlady is getting her numbers from. But then heat rises so maybe that is why hers is so high because it’s comfortable down here and because I don’t have control of my heat I have to just listen to her complain. And we have this thing called instalments which we pay a set amount every month and it’s usually cheaper then going month by month or every two months. We do have an equal payment plan and this is how it works…
How does BC Hydro equal payment plan work?
Equal payment plan

Each year, we compare the amount you’ve been billed with your actual use. The difference may result in a credit (if you’ve used less electricity than you’ve paid for) or additional charges (if you’ve been using more electricity than you’ve paid for). You can see how you’re comparing on each bill.

I need to tell the landlady this then maybe she will get a credit at the end of the year and won’t complain so much.
I also talked to my mom yesterday and she thinks the landlady is an idiot and is treating me not nice. And I have noticed that ever since the kitchen pipe got clogged which was mostly her fault. And then there was the floor and she blamed me but it was hubby’s mother who did it not me.
And I am finding that the bathroom is starting to smell musty when I open the cupboards of the vanity so that is not good. But then she doesn’t care and she thinks the band aid solution will work good.
I told my mom that I just don’t care anymore and I am just going to live my life until I decide to move from here. And when I do she will have a lot of fixing and cleaning to do because she didn’t do a good enough job the first time. It’s no wonder the same thing has to be fixed over and over. it’s like that book “Life is a game and these are the rules” when you learn the rules you play a good game and not lose and lessons are learned.

Onto something else…
I am feeling a bit better now and debating if I should have more coffee? But I still feel cold.
Well I need to stop here and get the heating pad on and start to feel warmer.

Do have a great day..
Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe and Behave.
