Natural

Hi,

We began with a cloudy sky that looked like rain.  By mid-day it was sunny and warm.  Tomorrow will be cooler, in the mid 70’s.  I know, it’s probably colder where you are, but I feel what I feel (555).

No one has identified the ‘Jazzy Wednesday’ tune yet.  There’s still a chance you could be the one (555).
“So __ __, you just go right on spinning.  You go ‘round and ‘round and don’t ever stop.  Remember that is you don’t go ‘round we are sure gonna stop, gonna stop, gonna stop.  My sweet little flower you win.  I’m spinnin’ and I promise I will love you forever.  I know that there is no one who can thrill me, no one can kill me baby, like you do.”  Clue:  There’s a child’s toy involved, and of course, love.

The ‘Mighty Three’ (Danny, Lisa and Cat) set out early this morning and got to Big C right after opening.  We’ve been going shopping early to avoid crowds, armed with our masks and gel.  From there we went to Starbuck’s for a decadent snack and into the mall.  We had a mission, and Lisa kept us on course.  Cat and I were, in Lisa’s words, like two kids in our distractions.  Nothing like a little ‘fantasy shopping’ to help one lose sight of the goal.  We went there to look for a new color, laser printer.  We found one and Cat’s help translating critical questions made it possible.  A few items from Top’s Market were also on our agenda.  They have installed self-checkout, which may be the first in Chiang Rai.  It was pretty slick and they had a staff person there to guide us.  

When we got home, the dogs were very happy to see us.  They had spent the morning inside.  It takes JaiDee a few minutes to calm down whenever Cat comes over.  He’s got a major crush on her (555).  After lunch it was quiet time.

Tonight we are camped out with the dogs, listening to the fireworks being set off in the neighborhood.  TongTong doesn’t like them, but she isn’t freaked out.  JaiDee seems to be OK.  He ran like crazy on our ‘walk’ and will probably sleep through the midnight noise.


Have a Thrilling Thursday and a HNY.  Please Stay At Home.

                        Peace,
                                  Danny
