No repairmen have repaired it as of this time and date currently etcetera. I am a little peeved. If you say &#8220;we&#8217;ll come tomorrow&#8221; shouldn&#8217;t that mean you&#8217;ll come tomorrow? And not &#8220;we won&#8217;t come this week&#8221;. Hmm?<\/p>\n<p>Oh well. I guess on Monday I&#8217;ll call the housinge office and ask how long they think it&#8217;ll take.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t actually have to sit at home and wait for the repairmen. I gave permission for them to enter my apartment if I&#8217;m not there. I just really hate the idea of strangers in my home when I&#8217;m not around. I know it&#8217;s silly. What I oughta do is I oughta get the heck out of here and not come back until it&#8217;s fixed. That way I will avoid dealing with strangers. Hey presto. But I just can&#8217;t. As always my mind is a stupid, complicated thing that will not cooperate no matter how much liquorice I use as bait. <\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t really mind waiting. I&#8217;m home 99,9% of the time anyway. It is just the insecurity. The worrying. The looking at the clock and wondering if there&#8217;s still time for them to come today. Hearing a noise outside and wondering if that is them. And so on and so forth. I just want it to be over with.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t spend all day waiting today. I had to go see the goats. I hadn&#8217;t seen the goats all week. I had to see the goats. And I got more than I bargained for&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Allow me to introduce&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5275\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080926_sheep2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"sheep\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A new sheep. There are sheep at the playground again! At least one, for now. It was baahing quite a bit, seeming a little lonely. So they&#8217;re considering bringing out another sheep to keep it company. And also we are hoping for lambs. That would be lovely. Sweet, silly lambs. I would like that. <\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5278\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080926_sheep3_th.jpg\" ALT=\"sheep\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The new geese were keeping it company. I tried offering it a carrot, but it was not interested. It&#8217;s used to being at Kurt&#8217;s place where there are not lots of people to interact with. I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;ll get used to the attention at the playground, especially if it gets lambs. At first it backed away from me nervously but I just took it slow and calm as I usually do, and soon enough I was scratching it behind the ears and stroking its head. She&#8217;s a sweet and peaceful gal. <\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5277\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080926_sheep1_th.jpg\" ALT=\"sheep\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Still wasn&#8217;t interested in the carrot though. So what to do about a surplus carrot? Hmm. I wonder how one could possibly discard of a carrot at the playground. I wonder if there would be anyone else who&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5273\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080926_magnethe_th.jpg\" ALT=\"magnethe\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Magnethe didn&#8217;t have to think about it for long .She gobbled it down like Plume gobbles liquorice.

It looks like I&#8217;m about to slap Vanilje! And look at her tongue all hanging out. Cute. You should click on it and look at the big version. Don&#8217;t that just make you smile?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d never slap a goat of course. But they don&#8217;t hold their punches&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5276\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080926_vaniljevsmagnethe_th.jpg\" ALT=\"fighting goats\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another action shot. I think Magnethe can be a bit of a bully when there aren&#8217;t any boys around to keep her in check. Poor Vanilje. It&#8217;s always the baby sister who takes the beatings.<\/p>\n<p>Just what the doctor ordered.
