Loadshedding

Last night we were without power for three and a half hours, I live in South Africa and at the moment we are having a power crisis, there is not enough electricity so we have scheduled loadeshedding, to decrease the electricity demand, Eskom says it will go on like this till late June this year. So instead of sitting at home in the dark with nothing to do. We went to watch a show called "Trans Travel", about a hypnotist asking people out of the audience to come up stage and be hypnotised, then she lets them do funny stuff, without them knowing what they did. We had a few good laugh's.

M's brother's girlfriend "A" is in hospital for Psychiatric evaluation. "C" said she almost had a nervous breakdown on Sunday and her Psychologist told her to come in, to come and see her.
We don't know how long she will be there for. He said that she started going to a psychiatrist about two years ago, when her grandmother died and her grandfather had to take care of her alone, because her parents just abandoned her when she was 3, and her grandmother was like a mother to her, and after her death she just wanted to commit suicide. I feel sorry for the poor girl to be at such a young age and to have gone through such an ordeal.

Anyways my dad got back yesterday from botswana, he went to look at the new house they are moving into, but he has to leave again tomorrow on another business trip, and he will only be back next week. I don't know if i could be that long without M, and only to see him for a day before he has to leave again.
