Catching Up

Been quite ill and on bed rest. Seems it was almost five weeks, then I checked the calender and counted 2 1/2 weeks.
I't seemed longer. The last few days I've been getting around, doing house and garden chores to regain some strength.

Laying around for two weeks sure zaps the energy out of you. I did some tree pruning, lot's of sweeping, pool cleaning, outdoor cement floor scrubbing. All those duties which wait patiently when you're not available.

As soon as the heavy downpour subsided, I ventured for a drive to visit Graham.
It was basically a good bye meeting, Graham is leaving this Saturday to get some body work done.
How long he'll be gone is somewhat open. Probably depends of required body repairs and recuperation.
We played the "Guess Who's In Town Game."

Then I was off to the furniture store, I needed to do something nice for myself. I walked through the store, and when I saw it, THAT WAS IT. Don't care for fake leather, naugehide, so I will cover it with a large blanket.

The chair was delivered within ten minutes after I left the store.
Half an hour later, after having eaten and indulged in a bit of pain medicine, I was in the reclined position.
I remained reclined until waking at 10 p.m.. At which time I moved to the couch.

Listed at 13,900 Baht, the price first dropped to 13,500, showing a bit of reluctance: final offer 13,000.

I actually had my eye on a LAZYBOY last time I was in Bangkok. It has more features and costs 55,000.
LAZY-BOY is a brand name for an American product, not some Thai I know.

The Sakon Nakhon Directory has grown quite nicely, thanks for some help from Martin. 

Funny Mail Google Group I was able to keep up with posting jokes as I received them. My Favorite Joke this month is:
