Monday 17 May 2021, Day 78 of Level 1 😊

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Gratitude for surviving a Manic Monday, the busiest in many years; for Loadshedding giving me a 2 hour focused gap to read the Sectional Title Act, and about the Maintenance & Repair Reserve Fund as well as Special Levies, in preparation for a meeting tomorrow; for a midday walk to Camps Bay, to gift my favorite car guard Lewis the pair of socks I received from the Western Cape Blood Service; for a lovely sunny day at 19C, enjoying walking in a sleeveless top and shorts; for being up to date with my work; for a quick chat with Stuart Bailey; for a Camps Bay & Clifton Ratepayers Association meeting on Zoom; for a late meeting with builders who I’ve asked to quote, at 20% of the R1 million alternative; and for being happy, healthy, and free. 🙏💙 Continue reading →

#Grateful for a misty drizzly day until early afternoon, whereafter the sun emerged, a wintry feel; for a catch up admin and writing morning; for a walk through Camps Bay at lunch time, and through Bakoven this afternoon; for a meeting with the Chairman of our Camps Bay and Clifton Ratepayers Association Management Committee; for a town meeting cancelled at short notice, so I walked down a street I hadn’t been to in Bo-Kaap, photographing, even a cat that came up to me and started ‘chatting’ – I had a KitKat moment with the cat 😿; for a me-tea-treat at Bo-Kaap Deli, with great tea and very poor service, despite the boss sitting inside too; and for being happy and healthy. 🙏💙 Continue reading →
