Tyrant Recovered

My dad woke me up at 6:50am because he found Tyrant- alive. He has squished himself in between the seat/armrest area. My dad thought he was a sock and apparently Tyrant wanted to go back to hide between the cushiony goodness of the couch.

I gave him some mixed greens of veggies so he could get re-hydrated for going without water for a good 6plus hours. Before he disappeared he had eaten half a mini carrot though. He looks fine now after having a sandbath before he was rather ruffled looking. I’m so happy he’s back safely :)

Tyrant Has Gone Missing

Tyrant somehow managed to escape from me and my mother. I brought him downstairs to run about on the couch around 10'clock and he was happily doing so until he ran behind me and POOF he disappeared, literally. At first I thought he had jumped off the armrest and was hiding under the couch but nothing nada zip- he's still missing.

My dad slowly moved the couch and we looked behind the bookcase and under everything in the living room nothing was left un-looked under. I really hope he's alright my dad thinks he's somewhere inside of the couch and perhaps he is or maybe he's run off somewhere else because he can jump over things and squeeze between/around/over/under almost anything. Pterror on the other hand is fine.

So their cage was moved downstairs and the lid is behind kept off in hopes that Tyrant will jump back home. Pterror has been moved into a plastic tub for the time being with all the necessities. I’m in no mood to make a video out of this :( For the last 2hours I've been looking, sitting in the dark trying to listen for TyTy please, please be alright!

Driving Lesson One: 2 hours

So driving isn't THAT bad all things considered. The instructor arrived at my house knocked on the front door as well as rang on the doorbell. I sat in the passenger side for a bit while she went over a couple things then showed me the 3 point turn then she parked on the side of the road and was like 'Let's Switch.' Which left me little to no time to panic so I hopped in the driving side and was shown where some things were- how to work the handbrake, steering, hazard lights just the mere basics.

I tend to over accelerate then sort of panic and sometimes when doing a turn I step on the break instead of the accelerate which is a big 'no' but hey as long s I learn from the mistakes

Next lesson is tentatively for June the 1st

Learning To Drive

I am having my first driving lesson tomorrow, well later today now. I finished up the in class stuff on May Saturday the 14th and I need to complete 15hours of driving lessons (as paid by my parents). It was rather a long ordeal to get hold of the driving instructor partly because I don’t like the telephone... anyways I was supposed to go on Monday the 16th of this month from 7oclock to 9o’clock but the lady (my instructor is a woman) came down with a 24hour sickness and rescheduled at a later date but an earlier time 10’clock to maybe 12’oclock or 1’oclock depending if I’m up for it.

Honestly I'm feeling rather anxious and slightly terrified. I’ve had dreams where I am driving a car from the mailbox to my house (which is really close by) and I manage to bugger that up my foot was literally glued to the pedal. I don’t believe I’m prepared as I should be for the lesson for some strange reason; it’s just that nagging sensation in the back of my head.

Moving

It’s really strange putting all your personal belongings into boxes and plastic bags to move somewhere else. You get a real sense of appreciation and wonder for all the things you have but aren’t all that necessary. You can’t bring everything you own so you need to decide what is the most important and what you can leave behind.

I’ve heard events in life being referred to as a series of books- there are chapters in each book and when one ends another begins; it’s a really great metaphor.

Question: If you could only take one item with you what would it be?
