Friday Funnies

Hi,

This morning we knew from the sky, that it was going to be a typical weather day.  The thing about the rain is, you know it’s going to happen, just not when.  We got a light rain during nap time and that was it.  ‘They’ keep telling us were going to have another storm, but ‘we’ look at the sky and laugh.

The 'Zany Day' song was “Mother’s Little Helper” by The Rolling Stones.  Here’s an ‘Old School Friday’ tune from 1956 that should be familiar:  “(shoo-doop shooby-doo, shoo-doop shooby-doo, shoo-doop shooby-doo whoa) __ __ __ __ __ __ I held you, held you tight.  ‘Cause I love, love you so, promise I’ll never let you go.  __ __ __ __ __ __.”  Hint:  When it’s late and nothing is moving.  By a group named after a smooth fabric.

Today we found ourselves back at Big C.  This time we had a small list of appliances needed for Cat’s dorm room.  We encountered some enthusiastic staff members that worked very hard to make sure we got the discounts we had coming.  

Work@Home was our next stop and as always, we learned things and had some laughs with our friend Katai.  She had just returned from Nan province, which is northeast of Chiang Rai, on business.  We always end up talking about at least 5 different topics, and her take on things is light and to the point.  

This Sunday there will be a nationwide vote on a referendum package.  We’re not very clear as to what it’s about and try not to go too deep into current politics.  There hasn’t been this kind of thing in a long time so it will be interesting to see what happens.  

Mr. Daku is doing much better.  We’re still not letting him have his morning workout and that’s a little frustrating for him.  He goes out on the leash and we walk around.  The stairs cause no more hesitation so we’re letting him move around the house more.  With most of his routine restored, he’s a pretty happy dog.

This afternoon Daku went downstairs to be with Natcha in the kitchen.  These days that also means visiting with Neetchanon.  Today they had a new device for her to sit in and it put her at Daku’s level.  As you can see from the photo, they now have access to each other and can communicate much better.  Daku has a toy in his mouth.  We heard little squeals from downstairs and later Natcha showed us a video of the baby trying to get Daku to come over to her.  That’s what we were hearing.  

I’m trying to find some kind of schedule for the Olympics on TV here in Thailand.  So far it’s not going so well.  We may have to resort to Youtube for some events.  Rio is 10 hours behind us so it just adds to the confusion.  The opening ceremony should happen for us at 6am the day after.  Hmm.  

Have a Wonderful WeekEnd.    Time for the ‘Funnies’.

                    Peace,
