Good news it is Saturday.. (Best on black)

We do have loadshedding from 8 am till 10.30 am today. Sometimes twice a day. No electricity appliances working at the moment, I therefore will drink coffee till 10.30.
Enjoy your coffee! Love your ant.

gorgeous wee insect! Looks as if he is going to jump right on to your arm. How can you drink coffee without boiling the water?
September 5th, 2020  
@maggiemae ha ha got clever. They do give us the time. A Flask supply the boiling water.
September 5th, 2020  
Such a cute ant! Hope you have enought hot water in your flask....

You may as well use it to your benefit, Relax!

Looks like quite a jolly ant. A bit of a bummer having no electricity. Does that happen every day?
September 5th, 2020  
This is a fabulous photo and I am so sorry to hear about your load shedding. It seems as if you have figured out a good way to work around it though.
September 5th, 2020  
I'll be doing the same. Slept late this morning. Marvelous comp here!
September 5th, 2020  
too bad. I know how it feels as we still depend on solar energy in our place in Sardinia - which means blackout every day after 9:00 p.m.... thanks god it’s Saturday!

Love this little bug. Nice the way you filled the frame and “balanced” the text. We have to loadshed between 2:30 and 6:00. It’s supposed to hit 110 F today...setting records unless the fire smoke keeps us cooler....can’t win for losing right now.
September 5th, 2020  
Such a cheerful way to announce crummy news ;)
September 5th, 2020  
Not sure what load shedding is but guess it’s no electricity for some reason. I like this cute bug!

September 5th, 2020

We had it twice today. 10am and again at 4pm
Better than in the week when they hit us at 6pm
Hate it when its 8pm timeslot
September 5th, 2020  
Great ant, not so good news though
September 5th, 2020  
Love your little ant he looks to be smiling.
September 5th, 2020  
What is loadshedding
September 5th, 2020  
you would have to be very organised to do things at the right time
September 5th, 2020  
I love this attractive ant sculpture. Drinking coffee waiting for the power to be restored sounds a very good idea to me!

We'll stick with the good news, cute! ...good luck with the electricity!
September 6th, 2020

A nice cute shot! Sounds like a good way to kill the time for a while. We don't have this here. Why is the power cut?
September 6th, 2020  
@onewing Babs at the moment every day for the last week.

@happypat @bkbinthecity
This is more or less whar loadshedding is.

The action to reduce the load on something, especially the interruption of an electricity supply to avoid excessive load on the generating plant. Not enough electricity to supply all.

@domenicododaro Thanks for the reply. Googled Sardinia. What a beautiful place. Been in Rome and Italy a few times. What an experience.
September 6th, 2020  
What a cute bug! Looks like you are managing well with the loadshedding-thing, although I hope that you can have your electricity back full time soon!
September 6th, 2020  
Great shot if this nice, funny ant.
So sorry for you power trouble.
September 6th, 2020  
Great close up, hope your electricity is back up.
September 7th, 2020  
A cute ant 🐜 ornament
September 7th, 2020  
Sweet! Love the dof.
September 7th, 2020  
That must be so hard to work with- always having to plan what you do around when you will have the power to do it. At least you have an industrious ant to inspire you. I hope your day went smoothly when the power came back on.
September 8th, 2020  
LOL - cute
September 8th, 2020  
great close-up of this nice ant, I'm sorry for the electrical problems that I hope are solved
September 8th, 2020  
@santina ha ha thanks for the reply. On Sunday we had loadshedding from 8 pm till 10.30 pm. To make it worse we had a thunderstorm in the late afternoon. The lightning struck a electricity pole.....gone was the electricity in any case long before the loadshedding time.Better now.
September 8th, 2020  
Awesome
September 9th, 2020  
Cute little ant. Sorry about the load sharing.
September 10th, 2020  
Ha - he's so cute. You have a clever artist there. :)
September 10th, 2020  
I think that your ants are much bigger than our.
September 16th, 2020  
Looks fantastic! Great DOF and focus. fav
