Today was lunges and stretching and upper body work, light cardio. A start. Started getting moving over a month before I packed up and split the mainland. Within a week I got a respiratory infection along with Ma and both cats. I was the last one to get better about a week or so before … Read moreLets get this party started
Skip this first three paragraphs of complaining and rationalizing etc and then there’s the cool food stuff and fairly bad pictures of the process, right after “…happy place, with cheese.” Yes a nice car and place is in the works. I’m not stupid desperate and I’m much more even keeled now. The nightmares have subsided, … Read moreNow, Tropical Island Gourmet Garde Manger and Perfect Fruits
These things look like a Popsicle but they are a gourmet dessert from Korea. Creamy yum, good thing I bought two this time, and no I don’t read the ingredients on everything just yet…part of not dying from stress. Suffice to say I was having some nightmares and feeling afraid. You wanted the good and … Read moreStress reduction
That’s the word that came up after prompting AI: give me a random word and nothing else.And here’s the pictures I took today on my secret little island. Most likely a place you’ve never been to, will never be, and wouldn’t know where it even is. I try to at least walk around the block … Read moreSerendipity
Since I came to this island…(oops that song called Out Of Exile by Audioslave just started playing in my head, so I put it at the bottom). But first I found a great song by this band I first heard when I lived on the Balboa Peninsula, Newport Beach, California. Good sound, up to 1080p … Read moreRubi Tributes and Deep Optimism
Ever tell someone your name is Bozo when you are in their clown show. I have, more than once. Buying a car yesterday was another example, but, I’ll spare you details on that, though I did see that they are looking for someone new to run that sales department.Anywho, here’s some saving grace that goes … Read moreThe clown show and “…broken people save broken people.”- The Guilty 2021
Today on Micro Beach overlooking Tanapag Lagoon, Saipan Island, the American Territory most people don’t know exists or where it is. It is supposed to rain today…ok, guess I hit the right hour then.
Typhoons prove that people are supposed to pay attention, hide from monsters and let it pass. This one was a near miss that was big enough to get the message that car lots won’t appreciate me showing up as it passes. Just too soon to be the fool on a remote island with people who … Read moreTyphoon time, AI and truth and what it says I should tell you
That’s what I forgot: the sand is finer, and sort of feels like it’s crunching a little under your feet, maybe because it’s coral sand, I don’t know. And the ocean temperature just seemed normal, not hot not cold and kindof softer in a way that is hard to explain. Anyway hardly any waves in … Read morecrunchy sand and soft ocean water…I left 7 days ago and arrived 5 days ago
Told my phone camera to translate asian text since I’m going to market. Got a fridge/freezer and a microwave so it’s back to my favorite market to try out the translation and there’s another market right around the corner (I was there yesterday/stellar, no wonder everyone says go there). Bread or tortillas seem limited on … Read moreSaipan or Bust ENDS because I made it. Try the camera translator, food list and the video that talks to my belly
