Dear Elsie

One of the things you and your Mom love doing is puzzles and the bug has bitten me too. The puzzle I started has grown. The pink, red and orange are done.

The other thing I like doing is giving my brain a workout and playing Sporcle.

Quite a challenge. I nearly forgot Serbia and El Salvador!

For Mike, he’s gone and got himself playing chess against varying and increasingly difficult computer bots. So this is how it starts…

This was how it transitioned this morning…

And the afternoon game ended with this…

It’s hard mental work.

Today Mike has worked hard. He has been working on painting the wood for one of his upcoming projects and he did quite a lot of that today. The wind picked up this afternoon, but it’s expected to drop tomorrow.

I also managed to get in just under 7 hours of work. Tomorrow, we should get to the beach. It’s also going to be a big cleaning day. The guest in the Seaview  apartment leaves. The guy in the Little Lookout moves in there, so both those units need a clean. David moves down to the LL, leaving upstairs to be cleaned. We have got it sorted.

The other thing that happily happened today is our Ethiopian air flight was bought forward by 45 minutes, meaning we have 2 hours and 15 minutes connection time in Addis instead of only 1.5 hours. That made me happy. Hopefully, there won’t be any further changes.

There were lots of gems from my Bible reading this morning – I chose this one…

Psalm 19:7
The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.

It’s not about now – we are only passing through.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you.

In His Grip,

Gran xx 🙂
