One of Those Days

Monday

Dear Elsie

Today was one of those perfect summer days that come along to Cape Town & are particularly wonderful after a spate of wind. The wind died down over night. The sun shone and the sky was (mostly) blue. Sunbathers flocked to the beach & water traffic was abundant.

We went down to the beach early – the water was not too cold and I got my 2km in with little trouble. We got home and the day began. The regular pre-holiday routine is underway with a morning swim, breakfast and work. We threw the doors open wide and let the beauty of summer flood in.

A few of the locals down at the beach have some sayings. We turn the ailments into cheerful opposites.

  • I’m riddled with good health!
  • I’ve come down with joy!
  • I’m suffering from happiness!

Appreciating each day.

If it is still windless this evening, we may even eat outside of the balcony.

Summer in Cape Town for sure!

Psalm 9:9
The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

The best is yet to come – we are only passing through.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you.

In His Grip,

Gran xx 🙂
