Wet day in Kuta

I did some shopping / house cleaning today that was overdue. My first stop was Cafe Moka for a breadbasket and coffee, then to the market. Our pathway way getting very slippery with the green moss so I picked up bleach from the Bintang supermarket plus a squirt bottle. I liberally sprayed the path and think this will help prevent us from sliding.

I also picked up a mop and some detergent and cleaned the downstairs areas, plus the large outside tiled area which had more dust than originally was noticeable. It looks much better now.

We have a few consulting projects going on and I took the opportunity to go upstairs and use the desk as it the most comfortable place to work. I whipped up some examples and have sent them off to Chris in Eugene.

As I was working, the humidity was peaking and after a while I noticed a sudden drop in temperature meaning one thing…. a storm. It suddenly unleashed and I stayed at home for a while not wishing to drive in a downpour.

The storm slowed and I headed downtown, traffic was heavily backed up and the cops were out diverting traffic. This sent me on a wild goose chase along one way streets trying to get to Poppies lane. Made it after doing a big loop in the wrong direction.

Ika and I will do interviews in the street when she gets off work today and I’m meeting up with Sima and Steve at 7pm.

no one is forcing you to read it. why don’t you put a real email down and start your own website.

Daily life is pretty routine most of the time, Andy, and worldwide. If you can find interest and a sense of satisfaction in doing what needs to be done, the rest is quite terrific.

speaking of wishing I was there…the photos of snow on Paul’s blog (Click on his name) look nice as well…I can say I’m happy to be in Oz, but the pix of NY look very nice and it wouldn’t be too bad to be there for pint about now…but then I would teleport myself or something back to a warmer climate.
