Friday Funnies

Hi,

The well-timed rains just keep on coming.  When we left the house this morning we realized it had rained last night. 

Today we just had hot.  As for the rest of the night, I really don’t know.  It’s anybody’s guess, but the grass is growing, and Daku is munching again.  Those of you who are going through high temperatures in other parts of the world have our deepest sympathies.  Drink lots of fluids and try to stay cool.

The ‘Zany Day’ song was “Subterranean Homesick Blues” by Bob Dylan.  Here’s an easy ‘Old School Friday’ for you:

“__, __, the whole day through.  Just an old sweet song keeps __ __ __ __.”  Hint:  The full title is four words, but one will do.  It’s a fond remembrance of a place.

Today was what might be called a ‘Tech Day’.  We had lots of things to do regarding things that plug in.  Each item was handled while keeping calm and it made the day easier.  It turned out that Cat’s computer didn’t need a battery, our iPad couldn’t have a new battery, and our local iSight shop could put a new camera in my phone.  Oh yes, then there’s the refrigerator.  The guy came again this week and ‘fixed’ it again.  Guess what?  It’s still leaving a puddle on the floor.  Oh, this modern world.

Our afternoon nap was interrupted by a phone call from a delivery man, telling us he was at the gate.  It was our order of ‘Black Seed Cumin Oil’.  This oil is supposed to be very good for many things, especially the immune system.  It is also one of the nastiest tasting and smelling things I have ever put in my body.  Yuck.  Blue has it twice a day and I have it once.  It’s use dates back to ancient Egypt, but it was found in a pyramid so we’re not sure what that means (555).  It was hard to get back to sleep after that.  A little later we went for a swim.  That’s something we haven’t done in a long time.  It was very spontaneous.  Lisa was out with Daku and happened to check the water since it was such a hot day.  It was cool on entry, but felt great after that.  I guess the rains have been warm.

For the Friday Foto we return to Chivit Tamma Da, and a close-up of some tiny, beautiful flowers photographed by Blue.  They were starting to bloom all around the grounds.

It looks like we’re going to have a mellow weekend.  No big events on the calendar, just a trip to the mall tomorrow. Cat is going to her village to help celebrate a good friend’s birthday.  The party will start in the village and end in town at Walking Street.  Sounds like a full day.  

Have a Wonderful WeekEnd.       It’s time for the ‘Funnies’.

               Peace,
