Popular Post Costas2008 Posted July 12, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) In the morning, I go around the house and garden, pushing the buttons on the controls I stole from the farang's house. Then I go to the fridge, watching the ants going around. After I listen to the mysterious sounds coming from my attic. Then I go to TVF to read which Thai lady cheated that innocent farang. Sometimes I go to Tesco to see if I can find that miserable git again. In the afternoon, I keep thinking, why am I here in Thailand? am I happy? How long have I been here? If I wasn't here where would I be? What has Thailand offered me? and other philosophical questions........ Finally in the evening, keep thinking, how well I know the Thais? do I follow Thai culture? Are Thais shorter or taller than farangs? Then take meditation and go exhausted to bed. Edited July 12, 2014 by Costas2008 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RikDao Posted July 12, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2014 Well, not inclined to bore anyone, or boast, but I lead a comfortable life, hang out with my sweet wife, eat very well, drink tasty coffee, laugh a lot, get some exercise (physical and intellectual), go to the market, go to movies, travel now and then, read a lot, hang with friends, study Thai language and history (the latter? VERY interesting). One thing I'm pretty sure about? I gotta keep it varied, look for new stuff to study and do. Love the internet, like we all do. Have a toolbox and love fixing little things around the place. Sometimes wife asks, You sure you know what you're doing? My answer is usually, Umm, sort of, but if I get stuck I'll look it up on you-tube. Universe is infinite, right? Well, even if it's not, it's pretty big and there's plenty of interesting stuff to tap into. And that, in my view, is MY responsibility. Oh yeah, now and then I'll even go on Thai Visa, read a few absurd rants, shake my head, and give quiet thanks that I'm as open-minded about Thailand and the Thais as I am. After all, I live here, at least part of the time, and I like it. I know, I know, right now some little fellows are shaking THEIR heads thinking, Just wait, son. Thing is, I'm prepared. I love observing Thai ways, and studying Thai reasoning. Future looks good to me. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now all you need is your own soi. i would settle for my own seat Also, i have almost just as many cats Was not really a choice, all rescue. some found on the road after being hit by a car, some after being belted by a drunk , some were just in the middle of the road, etc. Would not recommend it for anyone, but in truth, would not give up any of them, as have bonded very strongly, especially with those who were between life and death. At the moment, fighting to save a little kitten, found in the back of the office, Appears someone kicked him really hard, back legs broken and i believe urinary tract also ripped. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seastallion Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Every weekday, without fail; Alarm goes off at 3 am....wifey gets up, goes downstairs to study...if I wake from the alarm, out on the porch for a ciggie, then back to bed. 5:30 she brings me an iced coffee as she has to get ready for work which means turning the light on. I go downstairs and get her breakfast ready. She has her cooked breakfast (I am not ready to eat, so I don't join her), I catch up on TVF, NZ Herald online, and FB...then take her to work on the scooter. On the way home, stop at the market...shop around and decide what's for dinner...buy some veges and meat or seafood. Get home, more TVF and FB, then if TVF doesn't grab me, go for a nap....usually just half an hour to an hour. Do last night's dishes and prepare any food that needs preparation (eg marinating). TVF/ FB. Do odd jobs like repair the electric kettle or put coconut husk around an orchid, sharpen the kitchen knives, or go shopping for groceries or whatever.....odd jobs. 4;20 go and pick up wifey from work. Sit and chat about her day or my day. Start cooking. Eat. FB/TVF (both of us) and chatting. Sometimes go out and chat with the neighbours. She goes to bed. I stay up a while...usually in bed by 10. Ad infinitum. Wish I was rural to have some livestock to care for, even if it was just chooks. And a vege garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
