Hi,
Our Friday was a beautiful, clear blue day. The morning was cool, but the afternoon warmed up to almost hot. It was a good day for the yard crew that came to groom everything.
This week’s ‘Zany Day’ song was “Taking Care of Business” by Bachman/Turner Overdrive. Our ‘Old School Friday’ song should be familiar to some. The background parts may be all you need. “Shoo-doob-n-shoo-beedoo, shoo-doob-n-shoo-beedoo, shoo-doob-n-shoo-beedoo wuaa. __ __ __ __ __ __ I held you, held you tight. ‘Cause I love you, love you so, promise you’ll never let me go __ __ __ __ __ __.” Hint: The group that sang this was named for their number, and a smooth material. The title refers to that quiet time after the sun has gone down. Hmm.
The Big Brown House seems like a very relaxed place on the surface, but there are many things going on among the residents. We have a master calendar just so we can keep up. Between Cat’s school and non-school schedules that change quite often, to the ever-changing supply needs, we think on our feet in between the entries on the page. It’s like a dance, an exercise in ‘solutions’ and it keeps the mind alert.
This morning we went out to look at refrigerators. Blue, Lisa and I checked out the larger models at one of the biggest appliance stores and got an idea of what is available. The cute little frige we bought when we got here has become way too small for four people and two dogs. It would be nice to buy some things in larger quantities and make less trips to the stores. While we were out, Cat was having a math lesson via Skype with her tutor in Bangkok, and the yard crew was cutting, chopping and pruning outside.
Today’s photo was taken on our front porch during the yard crew lunch break. They are from Hill Tribes and three of the women relaxed after their meal by working on their cross-stitching.
Our weekend is going to be a busy one. Saturday morning Cat will go to her village and take part in a presentation with The Sold Project. She will talk about her life with a group of visitors from America, and answer questions. She’s going to try and do it all in English. She will return in the afternoon and we will all get dressed up and go to a wedding reception at Le Meridien Resort. Sunday we will return to Le Meridien for a lunch celebrating ‘Australia Day’.
Have a Wonderful WeekEnd. Hang on for the ‘Funnies’.
Peace,
Danny
