Bibimbap 비빔밥

Green weepy day

Every day has its own color. Monday = yellow. Tuesday = pink. Wednesdays start out green and end up grey in Thailand. Thursday = orange. Friday = sky blue. Saturday = violet. Sunday = red. Colors have other meanings as well, especially red and yellow. Orange is my favorite color and the color of Udon Thani.

My lungs can no longer take smoke. Smoke Season has apparently begun in Montana. It's brutal. I'm glad I'm here where the horizon is hazy from mist, showers or darkened from downpours. It was bad, very bad, in March and April. Planning my trips around smoke was not something I thought about years ago. Now I have to be even more aware of what threatens my physical well-being.

To Lyn's a Witchy Woman (Lyn) in "teleporting August"  "I can't lose anything anymore. It makes me hysterical (more than usual). I find money in pockets all the time.

August... die she must... Yesterday was not an auspicious start to what has been one of my least favorite months in the past. At least I'm not in Montana.

Teleportation would make my traveling easier but riskier. What if... the dial were set wrong?

Anyhoo... Happy August?"

To QueenNormaJean snow?forgetit.. (NormaJean) in "Ugh - bugs. "  "Humid here. It's cloudy at the moment and I have doors and windows open. I'm looking forward to rain that will clear it out.

Heard that there's smoke in WMT but I can't stress over that. I have other issues close to home.

Took video of a birdwing yesterday. Big 10-12" wingspan butterfly. Black and brilliant yellow. See plenty of bugs in the tropics. Chalked for ants last week.

Each fruit has its peak season here. Papayas are flowering so green papaya is everywhere."

Pan came home without texting me. I opened the door after exercising and was shocked to see him sitting there. I put everything down so I could give him a long hug. He's not doing well. I now have to look at my to-do list and do something. My regular blog keeps a daily record of my accomplishments. This week: "Twentieth Week of the Year 180." 

To Annette (Annette) "Habit Heroes July page"  in "I like the visuals. I keep track in a different (messier) way but I've made progress overall these past few months.

My priorities evolve over time; but, I've been fairly consistent with daily exercise... a total surprise. Thai language, photos, walks... good with that too. Travel to Laos in July disrupted my rhythm but I still managed overall."

My nerves are shot. Breathe in, breathe out. Focus on tasks...
