Monday
Dear Elsie
This is such a good thing to remember. I heard it today and am passing it forward. “Not every day is a good day, but there is good in every day.” Finding that good is a positive thing to do. To try to find the good in every day. If I have to write it down, I’d probably write down, ‘swimming in the sea’ on a lot of the days. That is always good for me. Today I swam – a wonderful 40 minutes in the water. The beach got very busy early on as it’s Tweede Nuwe Jaar. There were lots of people on the beach. As we walked home, we saw a sewerage drain was leaking. That was reported and the beach was closed while it got fixed. People moved up the beach and swam towards the lighthouse, but during the course of the day, the shark siren went off 3 times. The white flag was flying for a considerable period of time.
After 5 hours of work in the morning, we walked to the village to buy a few things. We got to see the beach up close and personal. There are two flags flying. The red one is in front of the life-saver’s hut. A little further on you can just see the white flag with the shark on.
We walked back along the mountainside and looked out for sharks but couldn’t see any.
Such a beautiful day and tomorrow will be equally as good – or perhaps even better as the wind is expected to drop.
Another good thing that happened today is we had another Airbnb booking. We’ve had a few recently, so February is almost full. January still has some gaps.
Work was also good.
Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.
The best is yet to come -we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
Gran xx 🙂
