Hiding in shame (not!)

her paw on her eyes
she pretended not to see me --

A burst waterpipe on the road that leads to our hamlet meant that we had no running water all afternoon. Then we had some again, but with so little pressure that our hot water tank, on our first floor, didn't fill up... Another call to the company on Friday morning  sorted it, though. I think they do a good job of resolving crises.
