Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a very relaxed day; for Minsky galavanter coming back safely this morning 😻; for cooler weather and the South Easter starting to blow, keeping the beachfront pretty empty; for a slow start to the day; for a power walk on my new Bakoven path, with very good Cardio, and hence earning 300 Discovery points; for getting to the Gardens Centre easily with little traffic, popping in at Hartlief and Tomes Chocolates, and then picking up balloons; for getting to Utopia on time to meet my Huguenot High Wellington Matric 1970 English classmates, to celebrate our 50th reunion with a late lunch/early dinner, a wonderful 4 hours spent together; for getting home safely; and for being happy and healthy.🙏💙 Continue reading →

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for the rain that has fallen so far, and more to come tonight; for the ‘biblical storm’ not having arrived, it being more of an all-day drizzle; for a hardworking morning in preparation of a client status meeting; for a good client meeting, drinking tea and served wafer biscuits;, for popping in at the German butcher on Kloof Street, fetching figs at Peppertree Café in Kloof Street, at the German Grocer, at the party shop around the corner, and buying some soup Veg at Spar Cape Quarter; for a break in the rain allowing me to do a walk through Camps Bay; and for being happy and healthy.🙏💙 Continue reading →
