I am finishing up a ‘normal’ Friday here, meaning that I’ve had a really nice day.

The gym was good. I wore my old shoes because it was sprinkling and the forecast was for 100% rain all day long. Since I had JUST gotten my regular tennis shoes dry, I didn’t want to chance it. I take personal credit for it NOT raining on us this morning. If I had been wearing my regular shoes, it would have drowned us again as it did Wednesday.

The Ugly American was not at the gym. I was locked and loaded and ready, so, of course, he didn’t come. My problem now is that I’m afraid if I confront him, I’ll find out that in addition to being an oblivious, rude American, he is NOT visiting, but is LIVING here and I’ll have to put up with him forever. I would rather keep my illusions that he is visiting and will go back home soon as long as I can.

I had a really good, though strenous, massage this morning. Khun Weaw was visiting family at home. Khun Sulee handled my massage. She is very skilled and kind, but she is much rougher with me that Khun Weaw. I feel so good, though, it would be perfect if I had one of the therapists one week and the other therapist the following. I’m just super greatful that there are two ladies there and that K. Sulee will take me when K. Weaw is absent.

Brian and I had a snack after my massage and then we headed for the cafe. I had a good session there, finishing two sketches and starting another.

My place is sparkling from Khun Pom’s care, so I’m one happy camper as I type.

A shout-out to my talented friend Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey who was on a podcast featuring her “Moves” videos, was featuring two songs, and who has lost 2 inches from her waist doing her exercising. You can find her on Substack – @sheilaspiralsister too. KUDOS!
