Grateful for:
1. Getting a double room with a bathroom and a bath instead of a single with shared bathroom when I insisted that I need a room with wifi Internet access as advertised. Very cool, and another manifestation of my “expect more, pay less mantra”
2. Finding a health food store! Oh how I missed thee for 3 months in Azores. Bought chia seeds and made chia seed pudding which was superb, also started sprouting some buckwheat, good times.
3. People watching, fruit shopping a picture taking all day, like a tourist.
4. Meeting some Russian people on the first HDI party of the week. Goodie now I don’t have to hang alone like a wierdo.
5. Talking for hours about psychology, self hypnosis, alternative society systems and doctor conspiracies. Without really setting my mind on it I seem to attract “my” kind of people, yay!
6. Walking for several hours total today, already see the muscle definition on my calves.
7. Having some cherries, nice to treat myself.
8. Stocking up my portable kitchen: sweetener, Himalayan pink salt (found in a small supermarket, go figure), almond milk powder, pepper, cinnamon, garlic. That plus a trusty spork and a portable blender/food processor and I can be raw no matter where I go.
9. Managing to stay on top of my work despite all the technical difficulties of late.
10. I am truly amazed how I just don’t get upset over stuff any more. Lost my external monitor on the train and 3 days later my laptop screen breaks so I effectively loose my only means of doing work but nevertheless after the initial sinking feeling of loss I really did not feel any residual negativity but instead my mind started coming up with clever alternatives and reasons for why this had to happen. I love my positive mind!
