Wednesday 21 April 2021, Day 52 of Level 1 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a relaxed smooth-flowing day, preparing for my client meeting this afternoon; for always being spoilt with a tea and a biscuit treat at our Anatoli meetings; for hearing from my client Russell about the special 2 for the price of one Smarties deal at FreshStop, on a bigger box size, meaning I’m getting double the Smarties for the same price 👏; for a weather change as I drove home, with fog rolling in at Camps Bay, the temperature dropping from 28 C earlier today to 19C, making it easy to go out for a power walk, up the 100 Houghton Steps and then down First Crescent and Camps Bay Drive, to the Beachfront, with sunsets of a different kind, hiding behind the fog in part, earning 300 Discovery points; for two Discovery Gameboard plays, being able to get a Woolies R100 voucher; for a delicious homemade omelet with shelled peas, prosciutto, and cheese mmmmm; and for being happy, healthy, and free. 🙏💙 Continue reading →
