I had a wonderful massage this morning. My regular therapist was still gone, but will be back tomorrow, according to Khun Sulee, the therapist who has been taking Khun Weaw’s place the past 3 weeks. I made sure she knew how happy I was that she agreed to do my massage this morning and did such a great job.

As I told you yesterday, Brian and I have a very busy day today. Once we leave, we won’t be back until dinner time.

I am trying a supplement and thought I would share it with you. It’s called Beet Root Powder. I may be the last one to the party on this, but I read information on it not long ago and wanted to add it.

Sunshine Market


“Beetroot powder is a nutrient-dense, vibrant red superfood made from dehydrated beets, often used to improve athletic performance, boost circulation, and lower blood pressure. Rich in nitrates, it offers a mild, sweet flavor suitable for smoothies, juices, sauces, and natural food coloring. It is commonly used as a pre-workout supplement or to add nutritional value to meals.”

Key Health Benefits

  • Boosts Exercise Performance: High nitrate levels can improve oxygen usage, enhancing athletic endurance.
  • Lowers Blood Pressure: Known to support cardiovascular health and increase blood flow.
  • Nutrient-Dense: Contains essential micronutrients that support heart and gut health.
  • Cognitive Support: May aid in increasing blood flow to the brain, improving cognitive performance. 

What are the top 10 health benefits of beetroot?

  • Rich in protective antioxidants. …
  • May have anti-cancer properties. …
  • May have anti-inflammatory properties. …
  • May lower blood pressure. …
  • May improve exercise performance and support energy levels. …
  • May improve digestive health. …
  • May protect the gut.

AND – “MAY” make me look like Julia Roberts!!!!!! 😜

(It didn’t actually SAY that, but with all the OTHER stuff it may do, I’m willing to believe it’s possible…)

I couldn’t find any downside unless you take more than the recommended dosage, so I started it last night.

I’ve been getting ready for my housekeeper to come tomorrow – changing the sheets on my bed, gathering trash, getting out fresh towels…

Do you realize what i just said? “Getting ready for my housekeeper to come tomorrow.” What a joy this is. I’ll never even really get USED to it, much less take it for granted. I’ve never been able to afford to have help. All I have to do in my sweet condo now is keep things picked up. “My housekeeper” handles everything else, and she is quite thorough. I’m absolutely thrilled. 🤗

I’ve been doing a bit of sketching, but I haven’t had a chance to paint any of the sketches yet. I’m hoping to make some time this afternoon.

I am FINALLY beginning to make a bit of progress on my puzzle! You might notice a small detail – I haven’t even BEGUN to put the big turtle together who lives in the middle of this. He is hiding in a gazillion pieces and I’ll have to work my way to the center before he emerges…

Tomorrow will be a very busy day.

  • We go to the gym first thing as usual
  • Shower and share breakfast
  • I go for a massage (Ahhhh!)
  • We go to the big mall to the immigration place to finish renewing Brian’s passport
  • We may do a bit of shopping at a clothing store we both like after
  • We will come home – but to Brian’s place – where I have stashed my stuff so we won’t bother Khun Non who will be cleaning my place
  • We will gather our things to go to the cafe to wait the rest of the time while Khun Nong finishes creating her miracle.
  • I will sketch, read, hopefully getting my favorite seat where I can watch the traffic
  • We will go back to Brian’s to share dinner
  • I will come home. (WHEW!)

I say this because I MAY be able to write a post tomorrow or may not, depending on timing.
