Friday 1 October 2021, Day 1 of Level 1, Vegetarian Day.
Corona Gratitude
# grateful for a wonderful day, the new month having a good feeling, and being in Level 1 is a bonus; for a sunny but windy day, but not too strong to do a walk to Pick n Pay; for the fabulous day, after 4 months of hell, that Franklin the Nigerian tenant of Sacha Jack’s apartment 201 has checked out of our building, as has the Nigerian in 202, leaving only one, with a new American lady arriving today, staying for 4 months, the two of us sure to sort out noise disturbances, the lift not having moved since this afternoon 🙏🙏🙏🙏; for the fabulous article in IconicZA online magazine; for a meeting having been cancelled, which meant that I had the whole day to catch up on work; for the joy of gifting Henry our Building Manager a dinner table, chairs and a carpet from my former Fresnaye house for his new house 💙; and for being happy, healthy and and free. 🙏💙
The Sweet Service Award went to Labotessa Hotel; the Sour Service Award went to Pick n Pay Camps Bay.

I am posting my daily Facebook post to journal this Corona Lockdown Journey, perhaps to serve as material for a future Book.
