Elusive library books and sulking machines.
I don't believe that inanimate objects are inanimate at all! How does a library book go missing when I am determined to have a system of putting them in a certain place so that I don't have to spend hours searching for them? Six books behaved, but Mr Timothy went walkabouts.
Then we get to the electricity - well! I have had one light refusing to work for some months, so I turned off the supply and checked that the fitting was still wired in and nothing had burnt out. No, all was as it should be. Next my alarm system stopped working and finally a whole light strip blacked out. Time for an electrician? Too true.
Well, the light that had been refusing to work for agges just needed its wires wiggling, there was nothing wrong with it!!! The light strip's transformer had burnt out - well that's kind of normal.
But, the alarm system takes the biscuit - there was power going in to it so the elcetrician couldn't see any problem. I turned the power off the next day so that I could check something in the garage, and it(the alarm) started screaming at me. I dashed back to turn the power on and from then on it has been working wonderfully. Why???
Doesn't that sound like a sulky temperament to you?

I hope the alarm doesn’t decide to go wonky while you’re on holiday!
I realized the other day that you would be away for Christmas. Does this bother your family?
Tami - it will be a rest for some and normal for others!
