BAD BEGINNING
The year got off to a bad start 366 road death for a 7 days
New Years celebration.
The demonstrations mainly in Bangkok though.
The cat named 1 died.
About 69 people have died because of the cold weather this
month , it has been
Minus degrees in the mountains. Here a couple of days when
it was below 10c.
I am really freezing in the mornings about 0500 I sit
outside reading eBooks and wearing 2 pairs of pants 2 jackets and a flannel
shirt a cap and a hood plus gloves
I am fortunate to have a mouse that I can use with the
gloves on to turn the eBook pages. Sun appears about 0800 at 1100 weather is
back to normal.
When the sun comes up I chase the rays as the sun is
raising.
Even the hot water heater
(silly name) have a hard time coping .
I know this sounds crazy but around 90% humidity , fog and
wind it is raw cold.
But some flowers and the cats don’t seem to mind.
The polling for the new election have started and that is
noisy , pick ups are driving around the village blaring out slogans for the
different candidates day after day we are so small so once or twice would be
enough, it is quite a nuisance.
I think I already know who the winner is came with a parade
of 24 pickups loaded with people and most of them also with loudspeakers the
second candidate only had 7 pickups and the lone wolf 1 pickup no people 1 sign
and the car radio blaring probably on a budget this is going on for about 5
more days.
The most likable guys are the garbage men they just wave but
that is because I bride them with a
Christmas present, you have to be in there good books.
Now it`s the last day of the month weather is now much
better , but it ended bad any way this morning a cat came home 50% drenched in
used engine oil. Tried to wash but not very good called 2 vets and they were
not interested, and also told me that the washing must be done over several
days. So I put flour over all the oil patches the get less oil stain then I
already got. The bed , sofa bathroom even on the newly laid driveway.
