"Good morning, Pooh Bear," said Eeyore gloomily.

Good morning!

My foot is much better today, if not quite 100%. I skipped my early-morning walk mostly because I didn't want to walk in the rain, and it's going to keep raining all day long.

So this will be another day of staying home and writing. I'd like to finish this draft before June 13 when school ends and my upstairs neighbor starts being home all day. That's probably not going to happen, but I'll try to get close to that anyway.

Have a good one, my friends.
#Today

IN WHICH EEYORE HAS A BIRTHDAY AND GETS TWO PRESENTS
Today turned around to beer. As usual the 0.75 beer downtown for me. Will apply a multiplier as usual. Then PassApp home. Total expense for my cheap drink $4 or $5. Works out well to have my wife cook dinner first and then go. She went out with family. That’s always some number of people. Weather here in Siem Reap beautiful. Beer cold.
Eeyore, the old grey Donkey, stood by the side of the stream, and looked at himself in the water.

#today am gently getting back to going here in Siem Reap. Writing some. Wanting more. Battambang was good but it kinda felt like the farewell performance. We have been many times. Sometimes going toward the places there and others escaping.

Always feel in both we need to up the game. Do something different. Today I think will wander around a map of Cambodia. Places I have not been. Get back to my practices here I love. Another nice walk. Some writing. A little yoga for this old body. A pause to do nothing and call it meditation.

It all works for me.

Trying hard to remember this.
