08-10-21 great karma
I am very glad I didn’t say fuckedy, fuck, fuckers when I wanted to yesterday because today was full of blessings!! I awoke to an appointment on the morning of the 27th for my second MRI and have decided to go visit my cousins, one in Tulameen and one in Blind Bay after, making a big circle. While on the treadmill I said goodbye to Walter White as Breaking Bad came to an end for me. Guess it’s El Camino tomorrow morning. I got lots done and then went for Sushi at Sakura with a new friend for lunch. Introduced her to warm saki, which really only goes best with fresh sushi, especially tempura. When I got back to the office my phone let me know that I had an achievement on Fitbit! I have walked the length of Africa which took me a while but I keep plugging at it. I got a lot done in the afternoon, accepted a booking for next week via Airbnb and then came home to glorious skies.
I just saw a McDonalds commercial with the song Steal My Fries. it took me a minute to realize it is the concept that we can eat together again that is worth having someone steal your fries. Well played Mickey D, well played.
My Hello Fresh at first disappointed as once again it was missing mushrooms, but truth be told, it is now one of my faves, even with the substitute zucchini. Already looking forward to tomorrow’s portion.
After dinner I saw that a friend was selling an outdoor fireplace and mine had recently rusted out so I inquired after it saying I had to arrange pick up. A complete stranger offered to deliver it for a case of beer, a friend joked that my Tucson could carry things and then the woman selling it said her husband would deliver it!! I also sent money to buy a tomato plant from her and then when they got here with a huge plant she gave me the plant money back! We were in a play together a few years ago and it was so good to see her and learn about the house sitting gigs they do travelling around the world. Her husband even took away my old one and the box from my shed!! Amazing.
Rae sent me a photo of what her eagle eye spotted, a leftover from Saturday night. The irony once the boundary was gone.
Today a most fantastic parcel arrived from a small bookseller. I only recently discovered a dear friend from the neighbourhood I grew up in had illustrated a book about the area. I can’t wait to read it and already adore the cover. It is also an autographed copy and the wee x on the map, I put there to show where the house boat I grew up in was, at the foot of jardine street. I feel so pleased to have called Charlene Kamachi a friend and hope she is well.
And that is only what I can remember about this really great day!
After I hit post this showed up!!! Icing on the cake!
