It is Sunday morning in CM and guess
what...it is a lovely 72 degrees, clear ski, and a
light snog over the mountain. While I carry a compos when I am out
and about since you can get on a cross street and all of a sudden you
are not sure of your direction. However, if you keep your
relationship to the sun and if you can see the mountains...it is very
easy. Saturday was “chat” day. I arranged two meals with
interesting people and breakfast with bonny. Now that going up and
down stairs is not as much of a project, I don't mind living on the
3rd
floor.
I have discovered that I
follow the law of mature...The more room I have, the more I scatter
my belongings. I do better with stuff about than space. So maybe a
smaller room, not a larger room would be a good thing. Also, I have
a wardrobe that is empty...I have three stacks in my duffel and I am
happy to know my clothing. I have put teams of clothing in the packs
so I can just take the top of two columns and I am dressed.
I am trying to live like
American TV...with a six second delay. My processing...i am washing
my face just as I am doing the washing is getting closer. Today at
the market I am going to secure a face washing cloth. Since I only
have hot water with the shower hose, I scrub my face in the shower.
I am getting much closer
to simple living or simply living. I have no place to go and nothing
to do. I am planning my living space after Kim goes. This will be
my daily living spot during the teeth so it is important to be
comfortable. I know the Kristi...and I will have to get it settled
before we leave for ENP (2 weeks).
Yesterday, I had a long lunch
with my new associate Jeannine from Canada. She is staying near the
TCM and QiGong side of CM. She has made it her own with a rug and
lights and curtains but keeps her back door open that looks at the
mountainsss and Doi Suthep (wat on the hill). It was a long
leisurely chat lunch... In the morning, I eavesdropped on a
traveling sangha having a monk chat.
They had questions and wanted
the answers in simple direct terms. At the end, they wanted to read
something as a group, get their questions together and then meet next
week to have them answered. (sssst...there are no answers...it is
the question). There were kids in class behind me which always draw
my attention. And last evening, had a bowl of Pho with Henry and
Hannah...such nice folks....I am watching championship bocci... Salt
is the movie this am... it made a mess in Albany when it was being
made.....
30 .bhat to the $1 $5.00 for an hour massage.
so time to post, pictures, shower and break the fast before
my 2.5 hr body scrub and oil massage with a hot wrap..... I will be a
pig in a blanket....lol
