Attitudes

Hi,

Cold air blew in overnight and made for a chilly morning. It didn't take long for it to warm up though, and we had a pleasant day. Wind in the afternoon kept it from getting too hot. It was a basically mellow day.

A few of you were quick with the answer for the 'Easy Monday' song. There's still time to play, since I know you remember this: "Don't be angry, don't be sad. Don't sit crying talking good times you've had. Well there's a girl sitting right next to you, and she's just waiting for something to do. Well there's a rose in a fisted glove, and the eagle flies with the dove...." Hint: Seriously? You should know that we are done with 1981 songs and unless I get a new year by tomorrow (your today) it will once again be 'Dealer's Choice' and I'll pick crazy years. (555)

This morning we had to put on an extra layer of warmth. At 6:30 it's still pretty cold these days, and today was even colder. I'm not sure how cold it really was, but it's all relative. I had a massage today and it's good to be back on a schedule. Khun Joy is very conscientious about her work and I'm grateful for that, but sometimes it hurts. And, of course, the smiles and laughter don't help. We're doing better as far as our communication. I don't always have to say the word 'pain' for her to know. There are grunts and groans that just come out and she knows.

Lisa is going to be in an exhibit and workshop next month at Chiang Rai Rachapat University. She finished the cast acrylic print that she will donate to the university for the exhibit, and is now making a piece for the workshop. The exhibit will be at the university art gallery and then the works will be sold. Half of the proceeds will go to one of the foundations sponsored by the King. There will be many local artists involved, from what we've been told.

We've been invited to a Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday. Our friends from Praatap Jai will be there, along with turkey and trimmings. How amazing, two thanksgivings in one season. There's a lot to be thankful for.

Have a Happy Tuesday.

Peace,
Danny
