Wednesday 23 June 2021, Day 8 of Level 3 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#grateful for recovering from yesterday, feeling increasingly better as the day progressed; for getting most of my work done in the very early hours of the morning, as I had a morning meeting, even getting a Bakoven walk squeezed in this morning, seeing the wild ocean; for an excellent planning meeting at Zest, loving the additional responsibility I’ve been given; for working at Zest after the meeting, tasting two of its dishes; for a sociable Anatoli Status meeting, adding to the cups of tea Continue reading →

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a slightly cooler day at 18C, but perfect for holding the peaceful protest of the Restaurants around the country; for the amazing start to my day, receiving my Tourist Guiding registration confirmation and copy of the card at 7h45, and for so many messages of congratulations ❤️❤️❤️; for getting my writing done in time to walk to the participating Camps Bay restaurants, all ready to place their tables and chairs out onto the street at 12h00 sharp; for getting back home in enough time to get to Free Range jewelers at 13h00, and then meet Jenny Stephens at the Green Point Urban Park at 13h30 for a walk followed by tea, and then making the dentist for the continuation of the root canal treatment and a temporary crown; for buying food for Minsky, she lapping up her pellets and favorite sauces for an evening treat, and another multipack box of Smarties, enough to last for another month, the Pick n Pay order finally having arrived; for receiving a Gameboard play and winning 150 Discovery Miles; for Discovery covering the costs of a temporary repair of the storm damage too, an unbelievable insurance company; and for being happy and healthy. 🙏💙 Continue reading →

Corona Gratitude 🙏

Sweet Service Award goes to Biomedcan; Sour Service Award goes to Discovery Vitality!

 

The Sweet Service Award goes to Biomedcan, and its Marcel Hartman, who sent me two sample packs of their SLEEP CBD capsules, when he read in my Facebook posts that I was struggling to get enough sleep, sometimes struggling to fall asleep, or waking up too early. Since taking the tablets my sleeping time has increased to as much as 8 hours, almost double the number of hours of sleep which I have been getting, and a deeper sleep too. The capsules seem to have a calming effect too, taking underlying anxieties away. The product contains Cannabis, and is natural in containing no chemicals. Marcel wrote to say that the product is available at Takealot.com. Continue reading →
