10:18pm: To the apartment building tonight, I got there around 6:15pm so I sat outside for a bit, which wouldn't have been so bad but a mosquito came over and bit my foot! So I went to the building and managed to get inside - since I forgot to bring any keys to the place. Then I proceeded to wait for 6:30...which came and went with no sign of anyone! Well except for the people who were coming in and out from their own apartments. I checked my email but there was no sign of an email cancelling it and there was also no mobile for the Strata Manager person and the bus that goes past the apartment was coming so after nearly half an hour I gave up and headed for home.
I had quite a good run actually! Particularly getting off the Limited Stops bus onto the 178, I almost missed it! So there was much arm waving and running. The driver had pulled away from the kerb, but she opened the door and let me on since there was a red light, so I got back to the apartment by 8:15.
Also, the figurine was returned! Which means the trip into the city wasn't a total loss, I just have to make sure that the gift card I got in return is kept safe and sound until Mum returns and can use it!
I also went to the library today, so I'm feeling very accomplished! However, I had quite a scare...when I got to the library and changed my shirt I discovered...my Activity Tracker was no longer in its clip! O.o My first thought was to go hunting for it, since I had no idea where it could be, but...I couldn't actually remember if I'd even put it in its little clip because I was in a bit of a hurry this morning...
So, even though my original plan was to go directly from the library to the city in the Limited Stops bus, I decided to head back to the flat in the hopes it would be there.
Alas, it was not D: I wasn't sure what to do, could it have fallen off in the bus, should I call the Brookvale Lost Property office or perhaps it had fallen off at Mrs S's place...There were many alternatives! So I took the bus to the bus stop I normally get off to go to work and walked towards Mrs S's looking carefully on the ground and feeling less and less hopeful...
And then! There it was on the ground just a few metres from Mrs. S's door! I could hardly believe my luck! It hadn't been stepped on or picked up by someone else or anything like that! Praise St Anthony the Patron Saint of Lost Objects!
So I have it back and now I have to wonder how I can prevent such a thing happening again, I suppose I'll have to put it in my actual pocket rather than clip it on the waistband. I wonder if it'll count my steps properly if I do that...guess there's only one way to find out.
And that was my jam-packed day! I have to be off to bed because I need to start half an hour earlier tomorrow as well as Mrs S and her husband are off to the Easter Show.
For now goodnight!
