Sent to me by my SIL, ML. Love it!

I just came back from sketching at the cafe. It had started sprinkling just as I was finishing a sketch, so I packed everything up and came home. Just as I opened the door to my condo, the sky went dark and it POURED. Things are easing up now, but I got home in time to get my laundry off my balcony and stay dry. Hooraaaay!

Here is my latest painted sketch.

I got my hair cut today. I don’t look like the woman in the picture I showed my stylist, but that wasn’t going to happen in any way, shape, or form. He DID get rid of all the excess hair in the back and on the sides, leaving the top long. This is me without any kind of styling ‘stuff.’ I can use mousse if I want to to try to make it a bit more edgy (I think), but it FEELS really good now. 💇

Brian met the heart doctor and Harvey’s nurse at the hospital yesterday to analyze a new blood sample the nurse brought and see if Harvey’s blood pressure medicine needed changing. Somehow, the bill for this was over $450! We will get with the docs at the hospital and the new owner of the nursing home and make sure we’re on the same page on what meds are necessary, and where we can get them for the lowest prices. We will see Harvey Saturday at the nursing home.

Today I did the prep stuff for my housekeeper coming tomorrow – changing the sheets, changing towels, gathering trash, general straightening. Tomorrow I have my massage (Ahhhhh!) and then Brian and I will go to the cafe to get out of the way until Khun Bpaum is finished cleaning.

Your hair looks great! The sketch was pretty. Your SIL sent something that was so funny, and the one about the ducks made me laugh out loud. Hope you enjoy your day. (Donna)
Thanks so much, Donna. My day has been a good one, and if it hadn’t been, you just made my day with your comments. I hope you have a great day, too.
I forgot to thank you for the comment about my hair cut. It FEELS good without all the extra in the back and on the sides. I’m glad you think it looks good.
I love your hair. It suits you well. 😊
Thank you, Liz. You and Donna have given me a real boost. I appreciate you both.

The hair is great! I am glad you like it which is the most important.
Thank you, Linda. I FEEL so much better put together when it’s not all flying around my face. I appreciate your comment.
That twist on the Serenity prayer is brilliant!! Synchronicity has it that I finished a video book review today to share tomorrow that aligns.
That’s crazy expensive (for Thailand), of Harvey’s tests/meds etc. hope you can get to the bottom of that!
Love love love the doggy sketch! And YAY about missing all the downpour!
Yes, I think the prayer will become a classic. I love it. We’re in communication with the nursing home, starting what I hope will be some much-needed changes to be sure we can provide what Harvey needs. I’m glad you liked the doggy sketch. :0). The rainy season is a post graduate course on trying not to get caught more than once a day in a rain…
