Kindness


Hi,

Today was a fairly laid-back Tuesday.  It was a cooler day and that helped.  

I got no emails about the 'Easy Monday' song.  Perhaps you've already forgotten about the Fab Four's 50th.  Hmm.
"Someone to love, somebody new.  Someone to love, someone like you.  __, __ __ __, you know I love you, I'll always be true.  So please, __ __ __...."  Hint:  The title is three words, and all the verses are the same.  Oh, there's a harmonica in it too.

This morning when we took the dogs out, the air was cool and it meant more fun for them.  Actually, Daku is the one who benefits from the cool mornings.  His coat is thick and when it's hot he tends to get tired faster.  When it's cool he's full of energy and can run more.  He seems to be aware of more scents in the air lately.  He'll be running or even walking around and his nose will go up and he's off in another direction.  Dogs do what dogs do.

After I picked Lisa up from her massage we went to Doi Chaang for a bag of coffee.  Then we went next door for some bread and a visit with Jonathan, our English Golden Retriever friend.  He was in a very 'social' mood today and got lots of petting.  

Our internet gremlin is back.  That meant going through the motions of calling the 'Call Center' in Bangkok, explaining once again and it's 'on, off, on, off' and answering a few questions.  Then we had to wait for a call from the local technical service office.  This time the young woman reset our line and told me she would call back in a couple of hours.  She actually called back and then sent two guys to the house.  After they messed with my computer, and theirs, watched some Youtube and made some calls I got a call from the office.  Your router is outdated.  This is the one that they gave us.  After they left I reconnected my Belkin router and it's all been good since then.  Amazing Thailand.

This evening our friend Chalit came over for dinner.  We had a really nice time talking about his photography, Thai politics, and the reality of celebrity monks.  He told us that the flower show in January is supposed to have penguins, a bear and flamingos.    

Today's photo is another Samlor driver on the way to the recycling center with a load that is truly noteworthy.

                           A motor would be nice

Have a Happy Tuesday.

                      Peace,
                                 Danny
