Hi,
The Chiang Rai weather is slowly getting warmer, a few degrees at a time. I was reminded of a few temperatures in various eastern United States locations and I guess it’s not really cold here. So why am I wearing layers of clothing?
“Who walks in the classroom, cool and slow? Who calls the English teacher Daddy-O? __ __, __ __, he’s a clown, that __ __. He’s gonna get caught, just you wait and see, (Why is everybody always pickin’ on me?).
Hint: It’s another in a string of novelty hits by a group you should be familiar with by now, named after something that rolls down a hill.
By maintaining our usual schedule, we seem to be allowing Mr. Lag to have his way without interrupting our lives too much. He still calls us, but we press on until it’s nap or bed time. Take that, you tormentor.
Today we went to Art Bridge to discuss the ‘move out’ details. Most of the work will be done by the staff, which is a great relief. One of the guys will follow us home and help unload the van, so we don’t have to do a lot of lifting. That is, until hanging time arrives and we fill the walls (555).
This afternoon we went to the Healthy Market. It was our first time there since we’ve been back and it was nice to get the warm greetings from our vendor friends. From there we went to Aye’s Deli to pick up my custom made rye bread. It will be nice to have something to eat with my breakfast, and to create acceptable sandwiches. I just have to figure out what to put between two pieces of bread that falls within my diet. Oh joy. At the deli, Khun Oh has a note on the wall listing the ingredients for my bread. It’s nice to have such caring service.
This evening at dinner, Blue and I took a trip down memory lane, recalling TV shows from the 50s. It all started when I mentioned Korla Pandit, an organ player who had a daily show that was very trippy. He wore a turban and sat at a Hammond organ and just stared into the camera as he played. Hmm. Then there was Howdy Doody, Soupy Sales, Space Patrol, Beanie and Cecil, Roller Derby, and a host of others. We laughed a lot. Good medicine.
It seems like we’re finally getting adjusted as far as the days of the week are concerned. We left L.A. on Sunday, arrived on Tuesday, and thought it was Wednesday for two days. I think we’ve got it now. Whew.
Today’s photo continues with a garden theme. This garden is at Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK). It was created since our last trip to Bangkok so it’s new to us. Small, colorful gardens can be found throughout the airport.
Have a Thrilling Thursday.
Peace,
Danny
