So we're pretty much out of it for the rest of this week, including the weekend. Wet and windy conditions are due to persist until Friday. It looks like it's just tough luck for the Sri Lankan Social Club because one of their major annual events - the Sinhalese and Tamil New Year - is to be cancelled. But of course, rainy weather is all part of the Sri Lankan New Year anyway, so I suppose you could call it 'seasonal' weather :D
We spent a good two hours bringing down the fancy pots and flowers from the balconies lest they should tumble and fall three stories down and knock somebody out cold. We've placed heavy cement bricks all around our shade, and Mom's done her best to hide her rose bush (the one she finally got to have after all these years...).
All-in-all, I'm just absolutely posolutely thrilled at the prospect of stormy weather and severe thunderstorms... I could watch my Mom run around the the house covering her ears every time it rumbles up there (harr harr HARR!). She looks so cute when she does that ^_^
The cat, by the way, is sitting atop our neighbor's window shade. I hope she doesn't fall off. And we still haven't figured out if she's pregnant or just constipated. That's because her tummy keeps changing volume every few weeks, and sometimes it gets smaller than it used to be, which brings our theory that she ate her babies to a possibility.
