June 5,

Yesterday, we had a scrambled egg sandwich for breakfast. 😋It was a good start. Then it rained lightly. We attempted to do a walk about, we made it to Rosies to get the fresh curry powder she said we could have. Rosie was not there, so we asked for it, was given it, and left. (They were eating lunch.) Then another light drizzle… we went back to our place. When it stopped, we went back out to go to the store. We stopped at The Veggie Hut having some deep fried items – X2 veggie stuffed triangles and X2 veggie stuffed “half moons”. They were good and spiced differently, having no idea what they were called. At the store we bought our stuff and went back to our place.

Laid back afternoon as it rained off and on. Supper was a mashed potato (hand/rough mash) with wedge of green chilli cheese and a “3 pinch” of our new curry powder. We topped this with a sausage and red onions. It was like a banger and mash dish – Sri Lankan style. It was great. Then we watched some You tube and watched more off and on, light drizzly rain. We went to bed by 2200.

Today we started with a breakfast of French Toast with Nutella, and yogurt. My back was sore due to the memory foam mattress and the hard pillow. So I had Jeff put the TENS unit on for a bit, had Jeff pop my back before and after using it, and took some Ibuprofen. It feels better. We were going to get a scooter today, but my back said no. Humph!! Lunch was a light one – crackers and cheese. I laid back down after, and did one more session with the TENS unit. Now feel so much better! We will be leaving Dikwella soon, so that might help with a change of beds!! 

Around this time I was blogging and we lost power again for a good five hours. Right after we lose the power we have noticed chainsaws. Are they cutting the power to clear trees away from lines?? Could be… Questions?? Supper we are planning to have a pineapple sausage curry pasta of some sort. Hoping tomorrow I will be all better so we can rent a scooter and scoot about a bit!
