Friday Funnies


Hi,

The weather today was pretty ‘drippy’.  Light showers were the order of the day.  It’s still warm, even with the rain, but not like the hot season.  

The wait is over, the ‘Jazzy Wednesday’ song was “Moody’s Mood for Love” by King Pleasure.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BAeHpSu24Y  For those interested in the history of this tune: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody's_Mood_for_Love  Now you’ll have some amazing trivia conversation, should you ever be at a crowded party again (555).  Now it’s time for ‘Old School Friday’.  Since we already went pretty deep with ‘Moody’s Mood’, we’ll just slip back to 1963 for this week’s edition.  “Say __ __ __, __ __ __, Say __ __ __, __ __ __, have a good time, __ __ __.  We’re gonna move it slow when lights are low.  When you move slow, it sounds like more and __ __ __.”  Hint:  It’s an R&B classic letting us know that it is acceptable to enjoy oneself. 

Every morning, after breakfast, we sit on the front porch and enjoy the morning.  JaiDee slurps out the contents of his Kong toy and TongDee joins us at a slight distance, creeping up for treats.  They are both getting more and more comfortable with being in the same space.  It may be time for a front porch family photo.

This morning it looked like it might rain when we left for coffee, but it never did.  Friday mornings are always busy at Chivit Thamma Da.  We were meeting our friend Lisa and her dad ‘Win’.  JaiDee got to go out and was very happy about it.  In fact, when we were staging to leave the house, he kept going to the door and Natcha said, ‘JaiDee’s ready to go’.  Our usual table was taken so we ended up near the main entrance, in a traffic spot that can be distracting for a puppy, as well as the staff that dotes over him.  They had brunch and we had our usual morning snack.  There is always plenty of laughter at our table and we leave feeling refreshed.  That’s what it’s all about.

There are many things that have become different or inconvenient since the Covid-19 virus hit the scene.  We just discovered something we hadn’t counted on: Immigration business.  Others have had grace periods for various renewals, etc. but I just realized that my passport is due for renewal very near the same time as my visa.  Timing is everything with things like this.  Rather than ponder unanswerable questions all weekend, we’ll go to immigration next week and get answers.  

Today’s photo was taken this evening while we were on our walk.  It’s the Provincial Judicial Center under a looming storm.


Have a Wonderful WeekEnd.      Time for the ‘Funnies’.  Check your listings, it’s another Formula 1 weekend.  Zoom.

                          Peace,
                                    Danny
